Jose Pablo C.

Experience Summary

I was born in the upper west side of Mexico City in 1996. I attended a private bilingual school (Colegio Cumbres) from kindergarten to my junior year. While I was attending high school in Mexico, I also took two courses a literature course and a course in reading comprehension and writing composition proficiency given by UAEM (Universidad Autonoma del Estado de Mexico). I also earned some extra cash when I decided to become an English to Spanish and Spanish to English translator. I took this job as an independent translator. I started learning English when I was seven years old. I have two certificates in English awarded by Cambridge University which are, PET (Preliminary English Test) and FCE (First Certificate in English). My senior year I was a foreign exchange student in Williams Bay, Wisconsin. Williams Bay is roughly fifteen minutes away from Elkhorn. I attended Williams Bay High School and graduated with a GPA of 3.6. As a senior in high school I took a huge part in the Spanish club. I helped many students as well as my teacher with the Spanish language. My teacher had taken several courses in Spanish proficiency and had taught Spanish for several years. However, since Spanish is my native language, I helped my Spanish teacher perfect her Spanish. I have been teaching Spanish for two years now. I have taught it at all levels, beginner, intermediate, and expert. I have taught all ages from ten years old to fifty years old. Currently I live in Elkhorn, Wisconsin. I am attending Gateway Technical College and I am majoring in Business Management.

Teaching Style

I prefer teaching my students to speak first. Once the student is fluent in Spanish, reading, and writing is taught. I emphasize conversational speaking a lot. That is what will get the student to lose the fear, and become fluent. Speaking a language is all about confidence. I consider myself a good leader. I was class president for three years in high school. I was the captain of the football team, and I have always taught by example. Example is the best teacher and the best motivator. I consider this are some skills I stand out at: · Comprehensive knowledge of educational issues · Experienced in improving relevant pedagogy and practice · Strong leadership abilities and organizational skills · Superb flair in communication and team building · Ability to initiate, develop, and implement curriculum strategies · Ability to monitor students within school or tutoring area
