Spanish Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Westfir, OR

I love the field of education and am especially talented when it comes to working with elementary-aged students (all subjects). I enjoy tutoring older students in Spanish (I'm fluent), history, English, social studies, reading and E.S.L. My weak subjects for older students are math and science. I have a B.A. in Social Work with a Spanish minor. I have teaching certificates in elementary ed., special ed., teaching English as a 2nd Language & Spanish. I have an M.A. in International Relations. I have tutored students in E.S.L., reading, writing, Spanish and elementary math. I strongly believe that education is a life-long learning experience, that children are able to learn from each other, that a teacher can facilitate the learning process and that students and teachers are able to learn from each other. I endorse the theory that all children can learn, but also recognize that they

Each child is unique and has a unique learning style; therefore, it is important that the teacher be willing to accommodate all different styles. I have always been interested in creating an environment where the student can explore and learn through using all modalities. I am interested in doing my best to help the children I interact with become curious about the subject and to develop a palpable intelligence of fluently speaking Spanish. As a student of the world, I have always loved to communicate. This love has led me to travel to many different countries around the world and pursue my degrees in Spanish and Education. I have studied Portuguese and French, and I hope to continue to learn languages for the rest of my life. I have earned a BA in Spanish and a Masters in Education which has enabled me to experience an extensive range of employment opportunities in our community. Du

My career passion has always been to work with kids. I received a BA degree from the University of Oregon in Family & Human services. I began working right out of college with homeless and runaway street youth as a caseworker for almost 3 years. As you can imagine, this job was heart breaking and emotionally taxing. I wanted a more positive avenue to work with students so I pursued my teaching degree. I was hired in South Lane School District in 2002 and have stayed for the past 4 years. I taught 6th grade Language Arts, Social Studies, and Reading my first year. For the past three years, I have been teaching 6th grade Math and Science. I am passionate about Math and Science. Along with the core classes I have taught, I have also taught several electives: 6th grade health, art, cooking, and study skills.

I love teaching and helping children accomplish their goals. I am patient and respectful, as well as empathetic. My objective is to help the student reach an in-depth understanding of the subject matter, as well as inspire the student to learn more about the topic.

My goal is to be an effective, friendly tutor and to make a difference in the lives of my students. I have graduated the University of Oregon in 2003 with a BA in Spanish Literature and a minor in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching.

I absolutely adore children and the innocence and passion they bring to my life. I believe each child has his or her own particular learning style and method that works best for him as well as his or her own academic struggles. It is a teacher's job to find out what way to best reach each child individually and as a group. Children require much patience and understanding but also lots of fun and laughter. I believe that one great teacher can stand out in a child's mind and heart for an entire lifetime. As a water safety instructor for the past 10 years, I have worked with children and adults of all ages and at all levels. I am passionate about teaching and about children. I have several years' experience working in the public schools for my practicum and observation hours working towards my teaching certification. I studied French at the UO and minored in both Spanish and Italian. I have

My approach to teaching is to make the teaching environment relaxed. This way the student can enjoy the language and use the language that they already know and are currently learning but are apprehensive to converse or write. I have four years teaching 1st, 2nd and 3rd year Spanish university level. I also have taught after school Spanish 1st-5th grade for one year. I enjoy teaching and over the past 4 years I have had students and professionals I tutor.

As a counselor for two summers at Camp Harlow (eugene, OR), I had my hands full playing, mentoring, and getting know up to twelve kids every week from the ages of 5-14. During this time, effective communication skills were paramount to success along with patience and listening. I work hard to communicate clearly and simply on an appropriate level. This has afforded me many opportunities to successfully mentor others. I believe learning is best done through teaching and dynamic communication. Overall, I would like to reinforce that my teaching style emphasizes efficient communication through the proper definition of concepts and the clear and appropriate use of language. I have recently graduated from Grove City College (PA) with a Bachelor’s degree in Molecular Biology. During my undergraduate studies, I was introduced to a curriculum largely in the fields of chemistry, physics, adva

I truly enjoy what I do. I love enabling students to achieve their goals, become self sufficient, and successful. I teach to the individual, looking for individual strengths and weaknesses; then modify my approach to meet the needs of the individual student. My goal is to enable the student to be and do their best. I have many years of experience working with students of all ages and abilities. I have taught in public schools, in private schools, with troubled and behavior problem youth, incarcerated youths (13-20 years of age), as well as home-schooled students, small group, and one-on-one. I have tutored students in all levels of math, science, English, Spanish, social studies, and history. I also have experience with SAT and ACT prep.

I began college level scientific research when I was a senior in high school by volunteering in a UO chemistry lab. Since then I have: measuring tectonic plate movement in the Caribbean, creating models of multi-phase flow, and testing the accuracy of GPS in devices like BlackBerry and Droid phones for vehicle fuel-use modeling. I have two bachelors degrees, BS in mathematics and BS in geology. In addition my passion for math and science was acknowledged with a Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship honorable mention. I enjoy working with people, and have mentored undergraduate geology interns and taught pre-calculus as a supplementary instructor. I also studied spanish for five years and spent five months on a student exchange in Southern Chile. I believe that everyone can learn with enough effort. However approaching the material in a way that makes sense to the student is key to allowing the

As an undergraduate student, I developed my love for learning. While I have pursued other interests since graduation, my studies allowed me to hone my abilities to communicate both in written form as well as through speaking and personal interaction. In 2006, I left for Buenos Aires, Argentina to study Spanish and returned to the U.S. 18 months later with D.E.L.E. certification and full fluency. I have tutored students in both Spanish and English and enjoy assisting others as they study languages. I enjoy seeing the light go on when someone finally understands a language concept. Learning a language is difficult work and takes time, but it is also very rewarding. Having been through the learning process myself, I appreciate the dedication students put forth to accomplish their goals. Students should be sound in both their breadth of vocabulary as well as their understanding of grammar. I

When I was working as an ESL teacher in Brazil, each school used to have their own material. We used to participate in trainings to get familiar with the material and then start teaching. I developed my "own" style at teaching ESL in which I was very focused on the oral part. I tried to develop conversational classes to my students. Besides that I was teaching grammar and other skills like : listening, reading and writing in English. My education is from Brazil. I have graduated from LETRAS, TRADUTOR/INTERPRETE at the Universidade Ibero Americana in Sao Paulo. Since 1991 I have been teaching ESL for Brazilian students. Once I moved to the USA, I have had the experience of working as an ESL teacher for the Latino Community in some palces in Eugene, Oregon. Right now I am working at Springfiled High School as a bilingual assistant providing help to the ELL students.

As a graduate in meteorology with a minor in math, I have had plenty of experience with math and science. I have had the pleasure of sharing this knowledge by tutoring children in these fields. My first experience occurred when I was a senior in college: I tutored students in math individually and in groups. It was enjoyable to assist students in Algebra up to Calculus. I gained more tutoring experience when I assisted high school and college students while I worked for Carney Educational Services recently. I have also been a teacher. First, I gained some valuable experience as a substitute teacher. Then, I had a blast while I was an instructor at Astrocamp. Getting kids excited about science was awesome. Making school awesome for students is challenging, but it is something that gives me a lot of satisfaction. Before I begin teaching, I create several goals and strategies to make it cl

I believe that learning should be fun and effective. It is important to me that students enjoy the discovery and challenge of learning but that they also learn the discipline and perseverance that will help them continue to grow. I enjoy using many styles of learning and kid-friendly activities to help students understand and master material. I strive to make my students feel encouraged and challenged to do their personal best. I want them to help them have realistic expectations and give them the knowledge, tools and help they need to reach them. I want to give students confidence that will help them succeed. I have been teaching children of all ages in many settings for the past 6 years. I have worked with students of all levels and helped them be successful. In college I tutored elementary through college students including English Language Learners, in various subjects. I hav
