CREATIVE WRITER/ TEACHER

I have extensive experience both locally and abroad teaching ESL. I taught in Korea for two years before working at a local ESL school. Within these two positions, I taught ages 5 through adult. Seven years ago, I became a certified teacher in Georgia and have been teaching ESOL in public schools since then. I have published about a dozen poems and one short story. Currently, I am working on my third novel and am looking for an agent. My forte as a teacher is discovering what a student is trying to convey in his/her writing. Para los que no hablan ingles, soy bilingue. Aunque puedo decir esto, me espanol no es perfecto.
I enjoy humor where appropriate and am very patient with students who need time to understand concepts that are new to them.

Reading is one of my top subjects! Throughout my teaching experience I have encountered students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL. My approach to teaching tutees how to read is tailored to each student's level because I believe that every student is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. While I enjoyed teaching reading at High Point Elementary, I love one-on-one tutoring because of the complete attention I can pay to each student. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships at WyzAnt Tutoring and Thumbtack. My role is to help the tutee express themselves, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base.

My tutoring style is serious yet fun, and I bring a lot of patience and enthusiasm to my tutoring sessions. Students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL, have benefited from my services. My approach to teaching is tailored to each student's needs because I believe everyone is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. With a background in psychology, I bring the added skill of communicating effectively with my students and quickly understanding their needs. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships with my students. My role is to help the student express their thoughts in a clear, concise manner, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base.

My comments on tutoring Reading : Hello! I am a highly certified teacher with over 20 years of successful experience, with a devoted passion and love for teaching all children. I have been working with students from K-8th grades in all subject areas, including reading,reading comprehension, language arts, and writing. I have also worked with students with emotional and behavioral difficulties, as well as ADHD and ADD throughout my career. Currently, I am in pursuit of a doctoral degree in Instructional Curriculum K - 12. I believe in targeting the needs and focusing on difficulties a student may be experiencing.

Never stop learning!

I truly believe the strength of my teaching/ tutoring style is my devout compassion. I am able to exemplify extreme focus, patience, motivation and due diligence because I ultimately care about the success of the students I tutor. My initial step in the tutoring process is to perform a thorough analysis of the students comprehension of the subject. Once I'm aware what the student understands and don't understand a unique and proper game plan is developed to reach a confident grasp of course material.
I grasped the importance of education at a very young age and excelled throughout school. Early in my youth I also developed a sincere passion for helping fellow classmates who I saw were having difficulties comprehending course material. I had a knack for connecting with students, identifying the point of confusion, and creating different avenues to reach full comprehension of a su ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I boast more than 14 years of experience in English education. I induce independent learning by stimulating curiosity about class topics through student-centered education methods, and I guide each student to engage in class with confidence to achieve their goals. I have mastered more than four languages besides English, and by doing so I've got a better understanding of the difficulties students face when learning a foreign language other than their own. I have thought languages in different parts of the world, France, Japan, UAE and South Korea, I've also trained executives and employees of several companies, such as Sinopec, McKesson, Exor, and Webhelp. Currently, I co-founded and operate Collabo, a startup specializing in one-on-one classes based in South Korea, and have prepared a program to help students speak English fluently in only few months.

A Little Bit About Me...

I currently have no experience as a tutor. I am a English major and honors student at Georgia Perimeter college and will likely go into teaching when I graduate because I have a passion for teaching. I have childcare experience as well as management experience that included training employees which is a form of teaching. I am very patient and love to teach whether the person is excited to learn or reluctant.
