Hard reliable worker

I am a very hard working person I am very reliable and dependable,so if there is a obstacle in my way I will suggest many solutions until it is resolved. I will work hard for anyone who deserves it and am willing to teach anybody who really wants to learn and further their education,no matter the field
I'm a hands on person so I will try explaining verbally and if that doesn't work then will demonstrate personally until him/her are confident enough to do it their selves.

My comments on tutoring Writing Skills : Writing classes (for ESOL) taught at University of Texas, Brownsville

I spent two decades of my professional life teaching English in Germany, authorizing and co-authorizing textbooks for the English classroom. Since I have been living in the United States I enjoy teaching German from beginner to college level. My teaching experience ranges from children at the elementary school level till adults, who need German language skills for their career of for enrichment. During my stay in the US, I had the opportunity to develop curricula for teaching German in public schools as well as private schools and wrote articles in the field of German literature. Undoubtedly, my academic background (MA in German and English and a Ph.D. in the field of education) help me to provide solid work for my students. Back in Germany as well here in the States, I had ample opportunities to teach individual students German or English as a Foreign Language. The age range was ... read more

I am a recent High School graduate. During my senior year, I was a student teacher intern at an elementary school for a third grade class. I helped students one on one or in groups with homework, classwork, tests, reading, etc. I learned how to change my style of teaching since every student is different and learns differently.

UT-SAN ANTONIO STUDENT WITH DIVERSE SKILL SET

BA Criminal Justice (University of Texas San Antonio '93), 11 years experience as a paralegal BA English Pending (UTSA, anticipated date of graduation Spring 2012) President, Sigma Tau Delta English Honor Society - Beta Omega Chapter Member Association of Writers & Writing Professionals (AWP) Award Winning Author Presenter of Scholarly Papers
I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

More About This Tutor...

Whether it is in front of a class of 40 or one-on-one, I have been endowed not only with the talent to teach, but also with the God-given ability to motivate. Most students hate my guts for the first week or two because I do not tolerate underachievement from anyone, including parents; but down the line the most frequent evaluation I receive is, “Mr. C, you are awesome.” There is no one who cannot be motivated to learn something well; and I always associate what must be learned with what a student's passion is or in what he/she is already interested. My students do not just learn the subject I teach. They learn how to learn and think "out of the box" and how to become a success.
My teaching credentials are in English and education. However... At the middle school level and high school level, I have taught/tutored English composition, geography, history ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my college career until I earned my B.A., I tutored fellow students at various stages of the writing process, from conceptualization to polishing. I also met frequently with fellow tutors to discuss researched tutoring theory and tactics. Having achieved great success in this position, my supervisor, the director of Schreiner's Writing Center, also personally arranged much contract work for me with clients of various ages and levels of education.
In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that ... read more
