More About This Tutor...

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.
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 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

Being bilingual can open up many job opportunities.

I have experience with Spanish because my mom is from Juarez Mexico. She spoke Spanish to me ever since I was a baby. I speak in Spanish with my moms side of the family too. I am Hispanic and originally from El Paso TX. I have also taken a Spanish class in high school. I've never tutored before, but I believe I can definitely teach this language to those willing to learn.
Whatever the student prefers and learns best.

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. In this way I present the complex phonics of English while its simpler grammar facilita thited its becoming the international language. Using this method, it is easier for students to learn other European languages. I attended 8 universities for a total of ten years for certification in various fields of education. I have live overseas for total of 24 years in Iran, China, Malaysia, Thailand, Turkey, Germany, England, Honduras, and Bosnia. I have traveled in 49 count ... read more

I may be young, but I have learned Spanish for my entire life. I attended a bilingual elementary school and passed AP Spanish as a senior in high school with a 99%.

More About This Tutor...

Essential to learning is an environment that allows students to personalize and experiment with new-found knowledge, to enjoy the learning experience and to know that their instructor cares about their progress. Teaching methods are always tailored to student needs, and to meaningful activities for each student’s life and goals; activities engage students' cross-disciplinary and leisure interests, as well as their unique personalities and learning styles. We learn to “survive” in a second language, to make friends and talk about daily activities; and we learn to raise the level (written and oral) to academic and professional needs in both linguistic and social aspects of the culture.
I have taught and tutored second languages (French and Spanish) and English here and abroad with every age level, (including K-12, university and continuing education classes), have served as Director ... read more

As a graduate of a presigious liberal arts college, I was driven to a belief in life-long learning. As such I have been to graduate school twice, once in business and once in international relations, to gain an understanding of the world in which we live both in terms of economics and finance and through the study of foreign policy and the wider world. I became fluent in Spanish while on assignment in Spain in the early 1990's and keep my skills current by working actively with the Latino community. I am also a scholar of 20th century european and diplomatic history, with concentration on the period between the two world wars. I currently teach Consumer Economics and Business at Pike's Peak Community College, and English as a Second Language through Catholic Charities.
I love teaching and working with students of all sages. I believe that you are never too old or too young to lear ... read more

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that it is the teacher's job to discover the true learning style of their students and when we do it is like unlocking a treasure chest of gold, so to speak. I enjoy teaching all the subjects in school and I enjoy the challenge of teaching children with learning disabilities and or emotional disabilities. I like to differentiate my instruction so that all students can access the curriculum and I keep track of my performance through regular assessments and using the RTI (Response to Intervention) process. I know how to teach reading and writing effectively studying under Dr. Elaine Cheesman from U.C.C.S. Also, I am able to teach math effectively for grades 5-8 with my combined experience and the courses I have participated in.
For the past four years I have been working at The Children's ARK-A residential treatment facility for at-risk youth. I was a teaching assistant my ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Every child deserves an education; I can help reinforce that process by providing assistance for that education. I love working with children and families, and I enjoy helping students succeed and overcome their obstacles. I am very patient and caring. I am a good encourager. I have great people skills and communication skills. I believe it is important to teach at a pace that best suites the child, while at the same time challenging the student to reach his or her potential. This can be achieved by good communication, which is necessary in foreign language development. I also believe learning can actually be fun! I find ways to creatively incorporate that with all of my students so they can enjoy the learning process!

My undergraduate experience at Duke University taught me how to value and seek excellence in all of my educational endeavors. It also afforded me the opportunity to take several courses in the field of education; to design, implement, and teach an ESL start-up program for Spanish-speaking employees at the Washington Duke Inn; to mentor women in my sorority, particularly through a faith-based group I created with the purpose of helping women face the significant pressures at Duke; among other things. In regards to my language background, I spent most of my growing up years in South America which allowed me to become equally fluent in both Spanish and English.
I highly value education and the pursuit of excellence. I especially value the ability to learn and speak a language other than one's native tongue; I am committed to helping individuals reach this goal. Knowledge of anoth ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The most important aspect of my teaching style is the simple act of connecting with my students on a personal level. I believe the teacher and student must have good rapport and mutual respect in order to have a successful teaching/learning experience. I take great delight in helping a student love learning. I enjoy seeing the confidence level rise in my students as they grasp skills and move forward. I am very organized. I know how important it is to have a well thought out plan ahead of time, to make each instructional hour as effective as possible.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, with minors in Special Education and Psychology. I have broad range of experience in many aspects of education. I've taught in private and public preschools and elementary schools. I homeschooled my own four children for 10 years. For the past six years, I have been a directo ... read more
