A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching, but to students about 12 and older. I am able to relate and connect well with them, and let them learn and take pride in their progress. Especially with younger kids, a high degree of focus on my part can be necessary to keep them on task, but I find that one can be firm with them and not need to be patronizing or forceful.
I have previously been a tutor for private individuals while I was making my way through college, and also as a professional duty while I was employed by the Salt Lake City Public Library, where I worked for six years. I have not been a tutor for a few years, although I currently volunteer with the International Rescue Committee in Salt Lake by assisting program workers teach english speaking and reading skills to new refugee immigrant women.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience teaching English has taught me that everyone has the ability to learn. The challenge is to identify the needs and style of the learner and adapt to them. I had students who were mostly visual learners and needed everything written down or printed on handouts; I had students who were mainly auditory learners and needed to have everything said to them, sometimes two or even three times in different ways.

My main goal in teaching is to figure out what my students want and need and help them achieve their goals. Teaching English was a very learner-centered approach, with the students fully engaged and participating throughout the lesson. I think that tutoring should be the same way, with the focus on how the s ... read more

I believe in interactive education. That is, students learn by communicating with one another. Student-student interaction is encouraged and enforced in all my French and ESL language classes. I always design my classes so that each student is given the opportunity to practice a new language in an enjoyable yet academic setting.
I have been teaching French and English as a Second Language in middle school and high school for seven years. I have a Bachelor's degree in Education and I am planning to pursue my Masters and PhD degrees in Education, Education Administration and Special Education.

I prefer the Communicative Teaching Strategy because I believe it enables students to learn in a more lively and purpose-driven way. I always consider that each and every student should profit from learning.
I have a BA in Education from the University of Kinshasa, IPN School of Education. I have been teaching English as a Second Language and French for five years. I have also tutored middle school students in Sociology and mathematics.
