Spanish Specialist

I specialize in tutoring Spanish from introductory through college level. I have six years of experience tutoring children (as young as preschool) and adults. I have taught both Spanish individual and group classes in a variety of locations throughout NY and CT. My native language is English, however I have lived and studied in Spain. I am passionate about all things Spanish (language, music, dance, food, culture).
My methods are successful and holistic, encompassing all learning styles, and cover the six components of literacy. As a successful Spanish tutor, my students grades improve one or two levels. My goal is to bring my skills and enthusiasm for Spanish language to my students and thereby improve and increase my students' ability to communicate effectively in Spanish.

My comments on tutoring English ESOL : I tutored ESL students for 3 years at an academy and privately. I am currently enrolled in a class to receive a TEFL/TESOL certification.

In 2001, I received my certification in Elementary Education from CCSU. I then substitute taught for the town of West Hartford for 2 years while I got married and had my son. He had a lot of health problems so the decision was made for me to stay home with him. When it came to Kindergarten he still had many health issues so we thought it was best to keep him home and I began to Homeschool him. Homeschooling has worked well for him and his younger sisters so I have continued even though his health is far better. He is now entering 6th grade. My oldest daughter is 9 years old and beginning 6th grade math and 5th grade Language Arts. My 3 year old daughter is learning to read and my 16 month old daughter is along for the ride. Therefore, I am very experienced with expectations and skills needed to master K-6th grade. Through out the years at home with my kids I have been tutoring ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned an associate degree in Criminal Justice/ Forensics science, at NVCC as well as my certificate in the legal program at Training Direct. I am a senior at the University of Hartford pursuing my Bachelor degree in biochemistry. I have been served as an intern with the CT Judicial Branch Superior Court in Waterbury and enjoyed this experience. I have tutored students in French and mathematics during the past three years.
I have a passion for children, I strongly believe in educating the younger generation due to the fact that they are the future. My philosophy is every child can be academically successful; however, one needs to know and understand their ways of learning. I am easy going, patient and friendly in fact; many consider me as an older version of a child. My objective make is to make sure that my students are a success.

My educational career was full of challenges that have given me a broad basis of knowledge for tutoring. In high school, I earned the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma. I subsequently earned a BS in Ceramic Engineering and an MBA in Operations Management. I started tutoring in high school when I managed a literacy program that paired high school students with students at a local elementary school. In college, I tutored math and physics through a formal program at the high school. After graduation, I continued to tutor, and in the past six years, I have tutored many students in all levels of mathematics (elemenatary, high school, and college). I also tutor students in college test preparation (SAT and ACT), spanish,science, English, and reading.
I enjoy working closely with students and their families to achieve the student's goals. I know that the definition of "succe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I received my BA from one of the top liberal arts colleges in the country. In addition to my psychology degree, I also studied Spanish extensively. Based on the liberal arts education that I received, I am fully capable of teaching a number of subjects including Spanish, History, and English. Currently, I teach Spanish and US History at a private boarding middle school in Connecticut but am moving to San Francisco for the summer. I also spent a lot of time in college and high school tutoring students in many subjects.
I believe that there is no such thing as a "bad" student/child. There are children that need more help and attention than others but everyone deserves the same amount of effort. I am very patient and laid back and really want to provide the best care possible to all children that I teach. I believe that students learn best when they are completely involved in t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had a successful career as a medical scientist in hospital, government, and reference laboratories in the northeast and southern U.S., holding bench, supervisory, and leadership positions. I have two college degrees with published articles, and two national certifications, all in the sciences. For the past eight years I have been a substitute teacher and tutor in thirteen urban, suburban, and rural public school systems in Connecticut. I enjoy helping elementary school children improve their reading, writing, and math skills in a one-on-one setting the most. I also like to work with enthusiastic students (any level) who are science-oriented, and enjoy introducing them to scientific methods, experimental data, and microscopy.
My goal is to help your child achieve success. I explain real-life applications of the subject (i.e., metric system--repair of foreign cars.) I enco ... read more

I have always loved to teach – even as a child in front of a tiny blackboard in my living room, playing school with my sister. Since then, I have continuously sought opportunities to teach outside of my daily school and work life. As an undergraduate at Middlebury College, I volunteered to teach beginning German at a local elementary school. After college, I taught seventh-grade Faith Formation at my church and also led monthly, 3-hour Confirmation preparation classes. My college coursework helped me develop excellent reading, writing, and language skills, but I am also competent in math and could easily tutor that subject on a grade school level.
I believe that a love of school and learning begins with confidence in one's own abilities. Some find it easy, and others need a certain dose of encouragement and guidance to gain that self-assurance. As a tutor, I think it’s important to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Upon graduation from college in the 80's, I taught adult education for three years. I then entered the business world, where I had a successful career in sales and operations management. In 2009, I chose to leave my corporate career and reenter education because of a desire to utilize my strengths and do something that helps people. I obtained my certification in English from the State of Connecticut in 2010. This past school year, I worked in Special Education and as a long-term substitute, teaching English to ninth through twelfth graders.
I enjoy working with children, and have a passion for literature and language. I believe that my love of the written word can be “contagious”, and that by modeling this love of literature, my students will come to see the value in studying the classics: insight into the thoughts and ideas of others. I have high expectations for all of my ... read more

I understand that children (and adults) have differennt learning styles and try to tailor my approach to the specific needs of the student. The bilingual students I teach have a unique challenge in that the letters of the alphabet represent different sounds in English versus Spanish. I have a great rapport with the children and because they are receptive to my teaching style have been very successful.
Although I have taught, coached and tutored aorking professionals I only have one year experience actually teaching. Since I have been unemployed (July, 2008)I have been volunteering in a bilingual second grade at Hill Central Music Academy in New Haven, CT

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college graduate with a degree in Accounting, I worked for IBM for 30 years. However, I was fortunate to obtain jobs that enabled me to effectively develop other skills that I thoroughly enjoyed. Those skills include both writing and teaching. In a systems support role, I designed and wrote informational materials to support newly deployed applications. In another supporting position, I trained over 300 accountants in IBM's operation system as part of their computer rollout. I also provided education of a query tool used to enhance the accountant's ability to analyze financial data more effectively. In both instances, I was unfamiliar with the material to be presented and had to learn the subject matter on my own first.
I loved teaching and found it very rewarding. I have been told that I have the patience of a saint. This may be due, in part, to the fact that I hav ... read more
