A Little Bit About Me...

A lifelong lover of reading, writing, and language in general, I supported myself through college by tutoring other students in Spanish and helping them edit/write their papers. Since then, I have tutored students between grades 6 and 12 in English related subjects, including spelling, vocabulary, and general writing. The past four months, I lived in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, where I spent two days a week tutoring local students in English as a second language, in addition to generally improving my Spanish skills.
My teaching style is extremely fluid. I've found that adapting classes to the unique needs and interests of each individual student is the best way to making a lasting impact on their educational growth.

Knowledge has come from observation and describing it.

Taught English in private school in Paris, France, Honduras, geography at Lakeland College, Mattoon, Illinois, Houston International University, Houston Independent School District, Houston Junior College, Five universities in China, Fatih Kolegi, Istanbul Turkey. I have written four books on the inside of history, three books on English going back to the origin of English in 1374 from German, French, Latin, and Greek.

My comments on tutoring Spanish : Spanish is my native tongue. I studied at the University of Puerto Rico and earned my B.A. in History, as well as a minor in Philosophy, from the University of Colorado. Dedicated and well mannered students only.

I am a newly grad from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs; I earned my B.A. in History and a minor in philosophy. I maintained a 3.5 GPA and had the honor of being selected to study abroad at the University of Puerto Rico while writing my senior thesis on the socioeconomic conflicts of Puerto Rico's independence movement. I will be pursuing my Master's degree next fall, continuing the path of academia. I relate well to students because I am a lifelong student. Also I am a husband and a proud parent of three children. I am experienced at running a healthy household where academics reign supreme; dictatorship is often avoided under the guide of homework being an opportunity to show off. Kids find that fun. I am also aware of the challenges of parenting because I too am a parent.
There is not progress without dedication; there is no dedication without interest. I spark inte ... read more

Teaching French is my passion. I believe there is no age to start learning French as long as you learn it in a fun environment. I am very patient, a good listener and also understand how intimidating it can be to learn a new language. I feel confident and qualified to take on the challenge of teaching the French language.
I am a graduate of the University of Avignon located in France, where I earned a Bachelor’s degree in foreign languages with a specialization in English. I am a French citizen and have lived in France for twenty four years. I completed all my education in my country and moved to the United States in 2003. French is my native language. I have been teaching French for ten years, in many settings such as adult education, tutoring, and church programs. My teaching experience has afforded me the opportunity to assume various responsibilities at multiple levels, such ... read more

In my experience as a musician, I have found that teaching a subject I love can really inspire students to excel. It's necessary to spread our knowledge to others. My specialty is music, but I love to teach in general because kids need good mentors. Each child is different so I use an individualized approach to my teaching styles. We all learn differently whether we are auditory, visual, or kinesthetic learners. I asses the student and provide the material/exercises necessary in order to create the best learning experience possible.
I have been teaching guitar lessons for a year now. I have just graduated from Colorado State University Pueblo with my Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts. In my education at CSU I have also acquired six credit hours in education classes and observed 60 hours in public schools.

As a student of foreign languages, I have traveled all over the world in search of new opportunities and knowledge. I earned my degree at the University of Colorado and spent one year studying abroad. During this time I tutored children in english while I learned French and German from them. During my four years at CU i worked as a foreign language tutor in the Foreign Language Lab on campus, tutoring French, German, and Spanish. I feel that my talent lies in explaining language subtleties and nuances to students as well as providing them with a newfound enthusiasm for learning new languages and cultures.
I finally realized that teaching was my one true talent. I have always enjoyed providing people with new ways to think about whatever it is that they're learning. I took great care when teaching languages to convey the importance and relevance of diversity. I gave my studen ... read more

I love working with children. I came from a family with six children and know that each person learns at a different level and in a different way. I believe that each child has to be approached and taught on their own level. My goal is to help each child achieve the best education possible. I am patient, caring, easy going, but firm. I know that tutors can make a world of difference to any child with the one-on-one care and concern. In my own experience I try to make a positive difference in each life with whom I come into contact.
As a literature major graduate I have always appreciated the art of writing and the expression of language through educational venues. I have a BA in Literary Studies which has enabled me to have a solid grasp of both the English language and the rules of writing.

I love teaching with children, they can be a better people than us, if we are a good teachers for them. Every child is a great person in the future and they have potential for learning.

More About This Tutor...

Working with/helping children is my passion. I believe that all children are capable of succeeding in life if given the proper tools and/or guidance. I also believe that each child is an individual and that they do not all learn in the same manner. I make every effort to find their specific style of learning and teach from there. I try to make every child feel successful and take pride in their work and accomplishments. Sometimes, it just takes someone with patience and flexibility to motivate a child to do their best.
I have earned two bachelor degrees;a BA in Psychology and a BA in Child Development. I also have an AA in General Studies with the focus on Early Childhood Education. I have been a director of a preschool for 4 years. I have taught in 2 preschools. I have tutored children, below the average reading level, in grades 1-6. I was the Site Supervisor in an elementary age ... read more
