Spanish is one of my top subjects! Certified Teacher - Undergraduate Degree and Masters Degree in Spanish 20 years teaching experience on secondary level 14 years teaching experience on the university / college level

I sincerely believe my experience and knowledge will have a positive impact and influence in supporting and assisting students with listening, reading, writing, and speaking the Spanish language. My instructional techniques are individualized to meet the specific skills and concepts of the student. In addition, all grammatical skills and concepts are taught and explained in correspondence to the English language so the students can associate and completely understand the rational behind the use and structure of the Spanish language.
I have twenty years of educational experience teaching Spanish on the secondary level, and other fourteen as an adjunct Spanish instructor for Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. Also during this time, I have the opportunity to work as an ELL (English Language Learner) coordinator for local school district on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

My comments on tutoring Spanish : I am not a fancy certified teacher. I don't speak Castilian Spanish, and I don't pretend that the Spanish that I speak is as formal as they speak in Madrid, but I am fluent, and I do know the language. I am new to the field of teaching, and trying to help others while I make a name for myself. I don't promise to make you fluent in Spanish overnight, but with interest and participation from you, I will teach you the Spanish that you need to accomplish your goals.

I teach mostly by rote. So, if you want an interactive lab, then I'm your man. Language is alive and meant to be spoken, not droned on about in a lecture.

Interactive, involving much student to student and student to teacher communication. Small groups are frequent in my teaching methods. A student will never be put on the spot, but participation is highly encouraged.
I have had experience as a substitute teacher in a public school system, I have had numerous tutoring opportunities with children of all ages, including college level students. I have studied in the College of Education at Mississippi State University where I learned many effective teaching strategies for all ages of students.

As a native spanish speaker, I am fluent in the Spanish language with a high level of knowledge of this language obtained throughout my formation as a professional in International Business. Also I have three years of study in Psychology. During four years I have tutored students in Peru, and during the last two years I have been tutoring students in spanish.
I enjoy teaching spanish. As a foreign language student, english student, I learned about the most efficient teaching method depending on each of my student's needs. I am really patient and my goal is to give the students a good understanding of different aspects in the language as in grammar, listening, reading, speaking in a practical way without making it boring and monotonous. I am certain that I can make a difference in each of my student's life.

I challenge students to overcome their difficulties and do not allow them to persist repeatedly in ignorance and misunderstanding. Rather, I require my students to learn and extensively practice even the most basic concepts until they are no longer problems, and this allows the students to move on to more complicated concepts, but, as needed, I patiently explain any concepts that are unclear. I remedy errors in morphology by requiring repetition of the correct forms, and by requiring the students to convert certain words into their other forms, reinforcing the various attributes of each form. I also make sure each sentence is read and understood in the order in which the sentence is written so that it can be understood as it is written.
I have studied Latin for 7 years, and have earned 27 credit hours at the collegiate level in the field with a 4.0 average in those courses in La ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Sciences, with honors, and am currently working toward the completion of a Ph.D. in Basic Medical Sciences. My scientific training supports a proficiency in technical and mathematical concepts. I am also an accomplished and published writer; accordingly, my written composition skills are well-developed. Over the past seven years, I have tutored students in English, written composition, mathematics, and the sciences. I have also successfully guided many high school students through the oftentimes intimidating process of ACT and/or SAT preparation. My instruction has been extraordinarily effective in helping students boost their academic performance, including their test scores.
I am young, enthusiastic, understanding, and patient. I am passionate about teaching, and it is my foremost goal to direct students toward academic suc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I come into contact with a variety of different students with different areas of interest as a public speaking teacher. My teaching philosophy is to recognize that every student needs, wants, and gets something different from their studies, and it is my job to help them do just that. Rather than conduct a “one size fits all” class, I work with my students individually to guide them in their research and help them get the most out of their speeches. I believe it is important for them to choose topics that interest them as a way to learn about an area they already like and become excited about delivering speeches, something that most students fear.
I have always valued the importance of a quality education and have encouraged friends with no college ambition to start working on their degrees. I am not, however, an elitist. I think every endeavor is a learning experience, but there ar ... read more

I believe that all children have the capacity to learn. Educators need to guide them in their endeavors. All children deserve a quality education. They need to learn in an environment that is structured but engaging. Every child has a different learning style and teachers need to be able to adapt their lessons to all children. I strive to learn each child interests and learning style and incorporate these aspects into lessons. I believe the parent, student, and teacher interaction is extremely important for a child’s academic success.
I enjoy working with children and have been working in this field since I entered college in 2004. I have a bachelor degree in Elementary Education with English as a Second Language Certification. I can speak, read, and write Spanish fluently. I am currently working on a graduate degree in Curriculum and Instruction/ Teaching English as a Second Langu ... read more

With a degree in elementary education, I have been successful teaching and tutoring young children. I am especially proficient in teaching reading and have learned several different approaches to evaluate and direct students in their learning. I'm also knowledgeable in math, history, art, science, and computers and familiar with a variety of curricula.
I love working with children and helping them succeed. I enjoy getting to know the child as an individual in order to form a relationship with them that will allow me to identify their learning style and interests. I am very patient, kind, intelligent and loving and I have high expectations for my students.
