I am a certified K-12 Spanish teacher currently teaching at the high school level. I have been teaching for 5+ years and have received recognition for excellence in the classroom each year. My passion for Spanish and teaching drives me to create engaging lessons which have proven to be effective in both individual or group settings. I believe that much like the way that we learn our first language, second language acquisition is best done in an interactive environment. I enjoy planning engaging activities that are not only fun, but also valuable.

I teach beginner Spanish to students wanting to learn a new language. As a teacher and tutor, I love helping children learn, grow, and succeed. As your child's tutor, I will help them learn by creating a personalized plan based off their needs. We will work together to support your child's learning. Teaching has always been my passion. From babysitting to leading summer camps, I have always enjoyed helping children learn. I received my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with English as a Second Language (ESL) and Spanish endorsements. I also have a Master's degree in Reading. I have been teaching elementary students for 8 years. I have taught Kindergarten through 5th grade students in the classroom. I love teaching young students and seeing them grow and succeed. My favorite part is when they have the "lightbulb" or "ah-ha" moment. In addition to teaching, I have been tu

I am from Spain. I moved to Naperville in July, 2012. I am bilingual in English and Spanish. I went to a British school in Madrid. I am also in my sixth year in French. I have tutored a few people before.I believe I am good at it because, as a language student, I understand how frustrating it can be to learn a new language. I am currently a sophomore at Naperville North High School.

I am direct without being overpowering. I have learned how to help the student come to the right answer compared to explaining why the answer is what it is. Talking them through the thought process of the problem is the first step to solving the problem on their own. I have been a math resource tutor at my high school for the past year. I really enjoying helping people using my strengths in the math and sciences. I have also experienced tutoring first hand. I was tutored in AP BC Calculus and AP Physics, so I know from experience what works and what doesn't. I may not be a teacher but as a means of cost effective tutoring, I can help you out wherever you need it.

I propone an exploratory, learn-by-doing philosophy regarding education; I believe that students are best served producing their own inquiries (guided by an educator), and then seeking resolution through gathering information. Nevertheless, all students learn differently and I pride my ability to adapt to certain situations and provide the healthiest learning environment for my students that I can. I've been informally teaching for around 7 years, starting with private percussion lessons and high school drumline instruction and most recently tutoring through the Migrant Education Program in the subject areas of English as a Second Language, math, science, and Spanish. I am a current Geography Teacher Education student at Illinois State University minoring in Spanish. I will receive my license after completing my student teaching requirement in the spring of 2015.

I simply adjust to my students' needs, reinforcing their strenghts and working hard on their weaknesses. First, I must say that I am not only a Spanish native speaker (born and raised in Mexico), but I also have a double degree (undergraduate) in Spanish and Psychology, and a Masters in Spanish. Additionally, I worked for almost two decades as a Spanish radio host, and I also have more than four years of tutoring experience (corporative and private). I tutor students in many subjects, particularly Spanish at all levels, and basic math, reading and writing. Among my studentes, there are children from 8 to 12 years of age, high school and college students, and adults who wish to learn a second language (English, Spanish).

I believe in taking a casual approach in tutoring. From previous experience, I have found that many times students understand the material but tend to get flustered in a classroom environment. I provide guidance when needed, but sometimes students just need someone there to talk it out with them. If this is the case I like to ask questions until they find the answers themselves. This method not only teaches them the material, but also builds confidence because they realize they can figure out much of it themselves. I worked for Kankakee Community College for one year as a Math and Spanish tutor in 2006 and 2007. During this year, I honed the mathematics I learned through high school as well as the four years of Spanish I had taken to that point. After a year, my classes conflicted with my tutoring schedule but I still wanted to help fellow students so I started independently tutoring. Af

My teaching style could not be better described than to quote Ignacio Estrada, “If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.” I believe we are all granted certain talents and gifts and sometimes we just need that little bit of guidance to reach deep down and find how we can be our very best. Let me help your child reach his or her full potential. In addition to being a patient and caring tutor, I teach with empathy. I appreciate how children can feel a loss of confidence in themselves, especially when their peers are excelling at a time they are not. In a positive and nurturing environment, I will help your child build confidence in his or her abilities, aligning the path for academic achievement. My B.A. is in History and Social Behavioral Science. This encompasses Psychology, Sociology, Social Work, Economics and Political Science. After graduat

Although the bulk of my tutoring experience has been with university students (two years), providing instruction in basic, mid-level and advanced Spanish coursework, I feel there are a few others worth mentioning. From February to November of 2010, I worked for a non-profit in Bolivia as both a translator and a tutor in a home for children aged 5-13. Several years before when in high school, I worked as a trombone instructor for elementary and middle school students from district 204. The reason I mention these two experiences is that, for all their differences, they did have some things in common: They both required patience and reflected how integral a student’s desire to learn is to their success. In the time that I’ve spent tutoring Spanish, what I’ve always found to be true is that in order to succeed, a student needs to have an approach to the material that works for them on a pers

I have a BS in journalism, and a specialization in advertising/integrated marketing communications. I also have minors in English and psychology. As a result of studying both journalism and English, I have an extensive background in writing. I have tutored ESL students to learn to read and write in English. My teaching style involves demonstrating how to understand a problem or perform a task before I ask the student to do so. By facilitating students in such a way, I believe they have a more one-on-one learning experience, as opposed to a strict lecture setting. With guidance and demonstration, I believe it is easier for students to learn without pressure.
