Experience Summary
Motivated tutor with long-term experience teaching at elementary, high school and adult levels. Has an ongoing concern in inclusive, multicultural education and in promoting student achievement through working with each individual's own learning style, and targets lessons to make a positive impact on the student's education or work.
Experience comprises working with limited English-speaking, disadvantaged, gifted, and Corporate students. Subjects include ESL, Business English, Reading Comprehension, Writing, Grammar, General Ed Math and reviewing academic subjects for test preparation, among others.
Has taught in a wide variety of ethnic and cultural backgrounds at prestigious international language schools as well as private students.
Teaching Style
Prefer to use the Direct Method for the longest portion of lessons when teaching foreign languages, as it is deemed to be the closest to natural language learning; but students' needs vary and it is them who ultimately decide.
My Hobbies
Reading articles on Psychology and Philosophy; Music; Playing Chess.
