French, Spanish, and ESL Success

I hold a B.A. in French and a TESOL certificate; I have five years of experience teaching ESL in three countries, and I taught French and Spanish for three years at a therapeutic boarding school in northwestern Montana. I've taught all levels from ages 7 to 70. Native-fluent and an expert in spoken French, vocabulary and usage. I have a solid mastery of Spanish grammar. I love to use both of my foreign languages to travel, live and work in countries where my languages are spoken!

Experienced, Enthusiastic and Patient Tutor

I am a patient teacher who works diligently to ensure the student's confidence and strength in the subject matter. I believe that there are many ways to approach a topic, and it is my duty to find the approach that allows the student to full understand. I worked to instill the skills the student's needs through thorough explanations, practice, and encouragement.
I have six years of tutoring/teaching experience, helping students come to a well developed understanding of the subjects they struggle with. Part of this experience includes a year teaching English in a classroom setting in South Korea. Through these positions I worked with students from the ages of 6 to 22, with varying levels of expertise and learning styles. Due to this I have developed an ability to work successfully with a wide range of students.

Learning through real-life examples is the best way to use what needs to be learned.
I have experience ranging from housework to mechanical to clerical. I like to help individuals who truly want the help. I help my kids with their own homework and understand how difficult it maybe for other parents to help their children after working long hours. Adults wanting to relearn any subjects will be treated respectfully, as well as children of any age.

A Little Bit About Me...

Most of my experience has been with adults as learners--coaching, supervising, teaching groups of staff and colleagues in the mental health field, and now--teaching CPA candidates on what they need to pass the CPA exams. Prior to my work as a CPA and as a manager of human services programs, I was a clinician, working with children and adolescents and their families. I am not sure I have one teaching style. Over the years, I have learned that people learn differently and that the instructor/coach needs to first understand the learner's learning style before trying to teach. I love to see people grow and, personally, I love learning. My people skills and my enjoyment of learning are probably my greatest gifts as a teacher.
I have extensive experience as a provider and manager of human services in the field of mental health, and am recognized for my contributions to the fiel ... read more

My educational background and various positions in customer service have strengthened my time management and communication skills considerably. I take much pride in my work, always possessing strong attention to detail and a steadfast commitment to exceeding expectations. As a trained teacher I am familiar with one-on-one student tutoring and have a long-standing interest in education. Additionally, my teaching experience in Boston Public Schools included developing and implementing an after school math tutoring program for a small group of students. I created and followed specific lesson plans to increase student retention and develop self-esteem.
As an experienced teacher I am dedicated to the success of each individual student. One-on-one time is crucial to the development of self-esteem and academic success. I believe that all children have the potential to be successful b ... read more

As a graduate of two accredited universities, I combine training from diverse disciplines in the form of critical thinking, excellent command of written English, creative problem-solving, and a well-rounded approach. In the world of work, I have added to my resume experience as an editor of reports, essays, books, and articles, understanding of client relations and project management, knowledge of environmental and social systems, and teaching key techniques and skills in these and other areas to others.
I enjoy teaching people of all ages. I provide contextual understanding to impart a deep grasp of a subject. I am patient with questions and enjoy enhancing confidence in my students.

Educationally, I have a BA in Mathematics from Vassar College, a school where I achieved a high level of success graduating with high honors both generally and within my major. While this gives me the mastery necessary to approach all levels of math up to the graduate level, my teaching experience makes it possible for me to convey those subjects to my students. I began working one on one with students while teaching guitar in high school and since then have continued to facilitate students' learning at various levels. Most recently I've pursued experiential education working with kids on farms, backpacking trips, and canoe expeditions. I apply this hands on approach to education in the classroom as well, one that I found successful while teaching Linear Algebra to college freshmen my senior year.
For various reasons, we all learn in different ways. Often times this is difficu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe highly in the effectiveness of one on one coaching. This enables me as a tutor to gauge a student’s understanding of the subject matter, as well as their past experiences in education—both positive and negative. I have also been trained to understand various learning styles, gauge a particular student’s style, and teach to that style. In tutoring writing, I asked students open-ended questions that allowed them to feel ownership in the learning process, and demonstrated that they are not incapable of writing effectively. Further, I believe that understanding a mathematical concept or writing effectively is not based on natural talent, but is a skill that is learned and practiced. I have a passion to see students become not only competent in their particular skills, but also confident in their ability to learn.
At a Research University, I earned two bachelor degrees, BA ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very flexible in my teaching style, and delivery of information. Some students know exactly how they learn, while others are unsure. I will always adapt to an individuals learning style. Although it is sometimes difficult to determine how a student learns best, it is important to recognize these differences among individuals. It is my goal to make sure that each student leaves a tutor session feeling better than when they first arrived. This is often accomplished by personalizing the tutor sessions.
As a biochemistry undergraduate student, I was selected to be an organic chemistry workshop leader. As a workshop leader, I meet with students on a weekly basis to complete difficult organic chemistry problems and answer any questions that they may have. In addition to the workshops, I was also asked to be a teaching assistant. As a teaching assistant, I work closely with professor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I strongly believe that children are our most precious asset and our hope for the future. I am passionate about helping children learn and grow through education and extracurricular activities. I love teaching children and helping them to first realize their abilities and then to reach their potential. Many children are not able to even begin to develop their abilities because they do not have healthy surroundings. I want to help create a positive learning atmosphere so each child's learning experience is positive. I believe in working with each child as a whole person, who has unique dreams and talents. Through education I am able to open up their minds and let them explore the vastness of the world in which we live. I want to be one of the people who make a difference through the lives of children. I too love learning and am dedicated to be a life-long learner myself so that I c ... read more

As a Portland State University graduate, I have learned how important it is to have a solid math foundation to continue to build and achieve higher education. Through University of Oregon and Portland State University, I have earned two degrees; a Bachelors of Science degree in Mathematics as well as a degree in Science. I have tutored several students, ranging from 1st grade to college level. I have tutored for/ through three different institutions: Portland State University, American Tutoring, Inc., and WyzAnt Tutoring, Inc. My students have also shared many accomplishments, some of these being first in their class, graduating valedictorian, raising their grades by at least once full letter, and scoring a 1500 in their SATs.

More About This Tutor...

I lived in Costa Rica in for 25 years and my Spanish is excellent. Because Spanish is my 2nd language I have some keen insights into how best to attack the grammar. I taught English as a second language while in Costa Rica and I have been teaching in a Dual language Program for the past 8 years. I feel competent to tutor students in the area of Spanish at all levels and to help Spanish speakers with their English skills.
I would be most comfortable tutoring if I had access to the student's teacher's syllabus, textbooks and /or student classwork, quizzes and exams. My goal would be to reinforce the areas that are being covered in the classroom to help the student achieve better understanding of the coursework.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching students of all levels is a passion of mine. From my many years of experience around children, I have found that I do not have just one teaching style. Each child is unique and therefore the approach I take with each child is unique. I have had the greatest success in trying different learning methods to tailor each educational program to meet the unique needs of each individual child. My educational background and prior tutoring history have taught me to analyze not only how the child can process the information itself, but to look at the environment and social factors that can affect learning and academic performance. By using this holistic approach, I have found that I have been able to effectively and positively affect each child I have worked with.
In order to put myself through my college education, I worked nearly full time as a tutor throughout the duration of my c ... read more

I love teaching and relating to people. I know from personal experience that one good teacher can change the way a student views an entire subject. I am easy-going, friendly, and patient. I believe that all students have great potential and should be given every opportunity to fulfill it.
Having graduated from a liberal arts university, I know that being well-rounded is very important in life. I graduated from Whitworth with a BS in Math and minors in Spanish and Computer Science, so I know what it is like to learn complex subjects. I have tutored my peers along with students younger and older than myself, as a mathematician and a Spanish speaker. I led a Spanish Live Lab for two years and informally tutored math for four. Also, I have a great deal of grammatical knowledge from writing research papers in math and computer science and Spanish.

A Little Bit About Me...

My four years at Willamette University taught me to think critically and communicate well. I was expected to have an outstanding level of written communication skills and I honed these skills throughout my education, especially while researching and writing my senior thesis. I have excellent grammatical and verbal skills and a deep love of language and all things foreign. My International Studies major allowed to me to study a broad range of subjects including history, politics and economics as well as studying French for four years. I would be comfortable tutoring students in any humanities courses including but not limited to English, French and European, World and American history.
I am enthusiastic and encouraging and I believe that a positive attitude and self-confidence can get you anywhere. When working with students and children I try to create a positive, encouraging, rela ... read more
