Bethany M. - Opelika, AL 36801 (6.9 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I initially got my start as an English tutor for refugees in the Chattanooga, Tennessee area in 2002. I then moved to China where I worked as an English teacher in for eight years returning to the US in 2011. My experiences ranges from university freshmen English majors up through non-English major PhD students. I have also taught in a community English program in China in which my students ranged from age 12 through 52. While the majority of my experience is in Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing classes, I have also taught such content courses as debate, newspapers, American history and economics. For all of my classes I have written and prepared all of my own lesson plans. Additionally, I tutored my own students as needed as well as prepared students for speaking competitions and served as a judge for many such contests. The majority of my experience lies in classroom settings of

Rachel J. - COLUMBUS, GA 31906 (31.5 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $47.50/hr.
Q: We've been studying Spanish/French at home for the past year. Would we really benefit that much more from a class environment?
A: Absolutely! Language cannot be truly learned in a vacuum. Language is dynamic, and so should be learned and practiced continuously in an interactive environment.
Most people say their main goal in learning a foreign language is to be able to speak it. That is why we use the power of the internet, weekly phone conversation practice, and in-class discussions to constantly improve our students' ear for the language, pronunciation, listening, and speaking abilities.
Grammar is also taught in a complementary fashion to the English grammar learned in other classes. So, students benefit from a greater understanding of their first language in the process of learning a second.
Without real-time interaction with fellow learners, speaking correction, p

I've worked in the ESL (or related) field for a total of 8 years. I was a Foreign Language Expert in China for 3 years and am finishing my 4th year as a rater for the TOEFL exam. I also taught Spanish for a year. I've worked with all ages of students as well (Pre-K to College age). I have been in the education/mentoring field for over 11 years. I'm laid back and like to draw the student's interests. I love small details and histories and to make a student think.

Lisa W - Montgomery, AL 36117 (37.9 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I did not realize I wanted to become a teacher until after I took a long-term substitute job while looking for employment. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and decided to further my education so that I could continue to teach. My undergraduate degree is in Mass Communications and Public Relations, which has helped me relate to all different students effectively and in different ways. My graduate degree is an Alternative Master's Degree in Secondary Language Arts. I have taught English in grades 7-12 for the past 14 years, and also taught Journalism and English as a Second Language while tutoring at night and in the summers. In my experience teaching a wide range of ages and children from very different backgrounds, I have seen how all students can thrive in an academic setting with the right instructional strategy. All students learn differently; some need their assignments read

Robin S - Montgomery, AL 36116 (39.7 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My approach to teaching can be best described as adaptive. My varied experience has enabled me to develop different methods for different situations. There is no "typical student," and it is my belief that a good tutor or teacher adapts his or her methods to an individual's learning style—not the other way around. However, there are some constants in the teacher-student relationship. A student can achieve anything, grasp any concept, with the right approach and attitude, and as a general rule I make every attempt to be both enthusiastic and patient during the learning process, to find that approach that works best for individual students. My experience in teaching began as a UPS manager in 2007, when I was in charge of training new employees in UPS processes. In 2008, I enhanced my capabilities with an English degree (3.98 GPA) and more teaching experience in the form of ESL tutoring for

I enjoy assisting and helping students to achieve their desired goals in life. I have been a mentor tutor for sixteen years and I get great satisfaction watching students learn and attain their goals and achievements. I also enjoy motivating children to pursue their dreams and never give up on any subject and study hard as well. I have a patient, easy going personality with children and I always stress to them to do their best. Education is the key for children at all ages and I always encourage them to always push themselves to be the best. I can proudly say that I have made a tremendous difference in many children lives. My bachelor of science degree in businss administration has allowed me pursue my career goals as a computer programmer analyst while i was employed at Alabama State University where I assisted the faculty and staff with computerized reports for students as welll a

Ashley H - Sylacauga, AL 35150 (43.2 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $58.00/hr.
My experience is one that has taken me many different places to meet many diffrent people. I have always had a gift of helping others and conveying to them my knowledge. I obtained my BA in English Communication from Talladega College and also i have a minor in History. I have had a great deal of expereince in writng papers, essays, articles ,and reports. During my time in college, I also tutored Spanish speaking students in the usuage of the English language. I would say my teaching style is more relaxed. I believe this helps one see students weaknesses and strengths better. It also allows one to compare the overall effect of teaching for each student. When I see a student falling behind then thats when I take action and try top get them where they should be in that area.

Brandon H - Sharpsburg, GA 30277 (54.9 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I use all methods of second language acquisition in my teaching. Most of the exercises I use to help beginning are communicative methods. It's better to get them speaking and writing and build their confidence than to just use rote memorization or drills. If I think the audio-lingual method will help a more advanced student, I suggest and practice this method with them. If reading in the language with the translation side by side helps, we will practice that. I bear all forms of cognitive learning in mind when tutoring a student. I strive to help in whatever way I can. As a graduate teaching associate at the Ohio State University and having studied Business Administration at the University of Applied Sciences of Aachen, I have practical experience dealing with all forms of parlance in the German language. These strengths, combined with a deep knowledge of and fluency in the German
