I have been studying Spanish for about 7 years now, along with having first-hand experience in using the language while studying in Valencia, Spain. I have a great passion for foreign languages and I love teaching those who want to learn as well. I prefer to meet with students in person, but I´m more than willing to give sessions online via Skype or through other applications. I love meeting new people and have a great interest in teaching them about the Spanish language, as well as about foreign languages and world cultures in general. Beginning with the basic classes, I have had more than 7 years of experience in studying foreign languages, and I developed a passion for them ever since. Currently I am in my last year at Kent State University, where I am earning my Bachelor´s Degree in Spanish Translation, along with a specialty in International Relations. Mandarin Chinese has also

I love hands-on activities and learning experiences that include technology. I also like to include activities that appeal to all types of learning styles. I have used and implemented Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences when planning and implementing lessons. I Have been a teacher since 2002. I have had various experience in teaching students diagnosed with ADD, ADHD, Asperger's Syndrome, OCD, PDD, ODD, as well as other learning, social, emotional, and behavioral disabilities. I have also had experience tutoring students from grades one to ten. I have had to plan and implement individual education plans as well as independent lessons for various students. I have worked with children from all types of schools including inner city and charter schools.

I believe in a communicative, student-centered teaching approach. In my classes I develop creative, hands-on curriculum materials that reach every student’s learning style and ability. I incorporate a variety of methods to accommodate students via visual, audio, tactile and kinesthetic methods. I also endeavor to guide my second language students toward comprehension, retaining language concepts, and taking increased responsibility for learning by providing topics of individual interest and using authentic materials. My goal is to foster and maintain an open, honest, communicative and supportive environment in which each student feels safe, secure, special and appropriately challenged. Language competence is my specialty and my educational passion. My credentials include a BA is in Journalism with a Spanish minor and a MAT with both a Spanish concentration and TESOL endorsement.

Because I enjoy the learning environment and have been in one for 16 years, I have learned much about it. Everyone learns differently, and I feel that it is important to understand the student's easiest way to learn in order to proceed. I believe offering students the chance to use their imagination and to encourage creativity is the best approach to education. Whether it is through mental imaging or hands-on learning, each individual student deserves a chance at better education. I am a recent college graduate and I am looking for employment within my field. I have two years experience tutoring an elementary student. I worked with a student in second grade and tutored her in both Math and English. Because her mother and I communicated regularly, she was able to tell me of improvements and areas of subjects that needed more attention. I am very enthusiastic about being able to work wi

My teaching style is simply and varies from student to student. I am a visual learner, once I see an example done; I try to use what I’ve learned to solve a similar problem. Some people don't learn that way, I try to pick up on the student’s best learning style (whether it’s by doing example problems, talking them out, or guiding them through their own examples) I can focus my help to try to suit them. I’m very patient and understanding when it comes to tutoring, I understand many of the difficulties people have. Over the past two years, I have come to learn much about helping people and I realized that it’s something I enjoy very much. In January of 2008, I was hired to work at the University of Akron – Wayne College Learning Center as a peer tutor. We are responsible for helping students that come in seeking tutoring (including test preparation and homework help). Over the past two plu

I graduated from Mount Union College in 2006. After that, I became certified in the Berlitz method and also tutored foreigners working in the states. I also taught elementary Spanish at Woodridge. In college, I would help my friends with their studies. I love teaching and helping others learn something new. I love the smile in a child's eyes when they figure out what they have learned. As a type one diabetic, I constantly figure out new things and apply them to my life. I want to impact those I teach for the better, so they can share their knowledge with the world. I believe knowledge is the greatest gift.

When I graduated from Mount Union College in Alliance, OH, my professors left me with the knowledge and the drive to succeed in all future endeavors. My goal as a tutor is to help my students acquire that same drive, not only by showing them the tools necessary to succeed, but by helping them understand how to use those tools in the real world. I believe that I have the perfect combination of patience and teaching style to allow any child to learn Spanish, in any form (speaking, writing, reading, etc.). I have tutored students in writing and sociology and have felt a great sense of accomplishment and fulfillment when I see my students succeed.

I have a sincere love for education, and I love to share that love. What people like about me is my interactive and enthusiastic approach to teaching and tutoring. I enjoy working with individuals and small groups in an education setting. I believe in differentiation in education, meaning tailoring the experience to each child's abilities and needs. I also believe in scaffolding, or determining where a student's prior knowledge exists, and then building upon that to bring them up to the current level expected of them. The goal of tutoring should not be to help a student pass a class, but to determine and fill in knowledge gaps to help the student succeed in future education experiences as well. As an education and business professional, I know the skills that are most important to employers. I hold degrees in K-12 Education, Spanish, and English as a Second Language. I also hold

It is my firm belief that if students have the confidence in themselves to believe they can do well, they will succeed. I believe that there is just not one way to teach because there are many different learning style. Teachers must identify their students' learning styles and find ways to incorporate them into the lesson. I agree with Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Some students are auditory learners, while some are visual. Some students are bodily-kinesthetic learners, while some are naturalists. Other students may be interpersonal or intrapersonal learners. It is my desire to pass a love of learning onto my students. After graduating from high school in June 2003, I went on to further my education at Kent State University of Kent, OH. At Kent State, I majored in Special Education: Mild to Moderate Disabilities. Upon completion of my program and graduation from Ke

I am very passionate about teaching and instructing young people. That is why I have spent time volunteering to teach English to children in Mexico, working as a counselor at youth camps for several years, and establishing a school outreach program for local art galleries. My desire to teach people about the arts also drove me to achieve a BA in Art Education. My education has given me the skills I need to tutor, instruct, and inspire students of all ages and circumstances. I find that students benefit greatly by becoming active participants in the teaching process. I try to develop a curriculum that students help determine, and create lessons that center around topics that interest the students and apply to their lives in a real and practical manner. I try to begin a dialogue with students whenever possible, but also try to know when students would benefit more from direct instruction f

My six years of teaching experience started in Pittsburgh, PA as a Preschool teacher within a Head Start program. I then moved to Martinsburg, WV where I taught Kindergarten for three years and First Grade for one year in a public school system. I am now working towards my M.Ed. in Reading while I substitute teach in grades K-8. I have always been a part of a tutoring program with the schools as well as outside sources (Sylvan Learning Center). I also tutored students while obtaining my undergrad degree in Elementary Education. Within my classroom and tutoring sessions, I make sure the student(s) know exactly what I expect from them, which is primarly for them to try their hardest. I maintain a caring and nurturing attitude when I teach while at the same time encourage and motivate my students to work hard. I am very patient and enjoy working with students of all ages.

I taught Middle School band for 30 years in the public schools, followed by 9 years part-time at the respected Old Trail School in Bath, OH. My bands at Bolich Middle School in Cuyahoga Falls, OH received many "Outstanding" ratings at O.M.E.A. contests. I have also substituted in several local school districts for a wide variety of subjects, including Spanish and French. I have also tutored Spanish privately, and given private lessons on piano and flute. I always try to start from "where the student is" and build on from starting point. I believe in positive reinforcement and that anything worth having in life requires consistent effort. I frequently am told after a day of subbing, "Mr. Burns, you are the greatest sub ever!" My wife and I also still perform as musicians in local restaurants, including several Mexican restaurants where we perform many songs in Spanish.
