My teaching style is to catch up mistakes and correct them but my priority is in teaching by showing examples or patterns, by practicing repetitions, by having learner write. For instance, when I took the initiative of teaching french to my newborn (now a teen), I used to flip and "read" small colorful one-large-drawing-per-page books with a noun written with its article. Afterwards, every so often and when the child is ready, to go up one level of difficulty, I did just that and my child spoke fluently with complete sentences at age 13 months. Today, her french is so clear that no one could guess she also speaks english.
As a passionate of the french language, I am proud to say that I speak fluently the version used in France and that I can tell the difference among many other countries'. As a native speaker, I passed the CLEP examination with a score of 80/80 towards my degree. I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As far as possible, I adapt my teaching style to my students' needs. When I was teaching beginner-level German to an adult opera singer, I focused on helping her develop her conversational skills and pronunciation, using English to explain difficult concepts. By contrast, when teaching a beginner-level 12-year-old, I used a total German language immersion approach and built on my student's love of creative writing by asking her to write her own endings to traditional German short stories. In general, I believe in a natural language acquisition approach that gives students opportunities to practice, make mistakes, and learn from them. Students have told me that they find me to be very dedicated, patient, and encouraging.
I hold a master's degree in language education and certification as a public school teacher in two states, New York and New Jersey. In the last three years I h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In addition to my work experience, I used to work as a full time Au Pair (nanny)for a family in Northport and cared for children between the age of one and nine years. Therefore, I am very confident in working with children. I love teaching and being with children. It makes me very happy to see how fast they learn certain things. When it comes to languages, I think it is amazing how fast children learn a second laguage at a very young age. Concerning my teaching style, I am very patient and give the children as much time as they need. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways.
As a multilingual German native speaker and graduate from Giessen University, Germany, I used to work as an English and German Teacher at a language and communication school in Germany for four years, before moving to the United States. I worked as a consultant to provide English le ... read more

I like to work with students with two SAT books like the Princeton Review and Barrons. While the student is answering from one, I go over his or her answers from the other. I will interrupt him or her with why he or she missed answers. "Beware of negative connotations or absolutes." "The author is perfect or near perfect, looking down from his or her ivory tower. Just about anything that shows imperfection in the author is probably wrong".
I have experience tutoring English and History, especially for standardized tests. I had a hand in helping get two young ladies into Phillips Exeter Academy, hav ing tutored them for the SSAT and prepping them for interviews.ther of my last year's SSAT students received a $41,000 scholarship to another prestigeous boarding school. One of the students I tutored last year received a 5 out of 5 on the AP world history exam. One student I tutored ... read more

As a Boy Scout I worked to help my fellow Scouts advance through the ranks and learn the skills that would help them become better Scouts and better young men. As an ESL teacher in both Germany and Spain I worked with a wide variety of students; from German civil engineers to Spanish middle schoolers. I also taught subjects such as Civics and Art through the medium of English. As a volunteer at my local library I have helped immigrants from diverse backgrounds gain a better grasp of the English language. At Huntington I work with students of various ages, from six to seventeen, on improving their skills as students.
The key to a good teaching style is creativity and adaptability. It is the job of the teacher to adjust his teaching style to fit the needs of the student. Some students respond well to visual cues; such as drawings in the case of teaching English as a Second Languag ... read more

I have found my true passion in life. I teach with the firm believe and commitment that teaching (and learning) can be fun. Make no mistake, my students progress in their grasp of English but I try very hard to design my lessons around the students interest. I use games and puzzles in my classes to give the students a challenge. I am patient and love to see the light in my students eyes when they get it. I want everyone of my students to look forward to our lessons together and to get a feeling of accomplishment when the lesson is over.
After many years working as an accountant and teaching genealogy to adults I was asked to consider teaching English. To make that a reality I started teaching as a volunteer in a school in New Rochelle. When I confirmed that I had an aptitude for teaching and a desire to do it well, I took a certificate course in Manhattan to improve my skil ... read more
