A Little Bit About Me...

Hello everyone. I am an international student from China, and currently I am a PhD student in University of Florida. As a native Chinese, I attended the best secondary schools and that I speak standard, tactful Chinese. I have been studying and living in the US for more than 4 years, which makes me a fluent English speaker to easily communicate with. I started tutoring Chinese in 2011 when I was volunteering for the university language service center in University of Wisconsin. During my study in Stony Brook University, I also tutored several ESL students to help them get through the cultural and language barrier upon their arrival in the US. I enjoy teaching and making connections between languages. I'm also good with children.

English ESOL is one of my top subjects! For 3 years I have offered Chinese international students my services to help them gain a better understanding of American culture and the English language. As a Mandarin Chinese speaker, I am uniquely qualified to make the transition from China to an American campus as easy as possible. For those three years my goal has been to make certain that the students I tutor are in the best position possible to make the most of their American education.

I am a firm believer that different people learn in different ways. Therefore, while I teach by my own set of principles I am always seeking feedback on how better to accommodate the manners in which criteria can be better understood.
Prior to serving in the United States Army, I was a successful entrepreneur in NJ. In 2003, I was recruited and after serving I returned to train troops at the Infantry Training Brigade at Fort Benning, GA. After returning home, I began working at a financial firm and became a licensed Investment Advisor and Asset Manager. I ran the Manasquan Edward Jones branch office until deciding to return to school. I studied Political Science at the University of Florida completing their International Relations program Cum Laude. Studies in International Relations focused on the international global economy, international agencies, national security, internation ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My name is Wenjing Luo, a 24-year-old girl who is from China. I am fluent in English and Chinese. I have been living in the U.S. for three years. I first came to the U.S. to participate in a cultural exchange program when I was a freshman in college. It was at that time that I developed my interest of exploring another country with completely different culture from mine. After I graduated from college, I came back to the U.S. and got my Master of Education Degree at Vanderbilt University. During my two years of graduate study at Vanderbilt, I actively participated in lots of volunteering and intern opportunities in K-12 school settings. I worked with kindergarten, 3rd, 4th, 7th, and high school students by engaging in some activities, such as guided-reading, math tutoring, and game playing. These experiences provided an area for me to apply what I had learned in school into real-lif ... read more

I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways.
I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child.

More About This Tutor...

I decided at the age of 38 to attend college and earn my BA of Education degree. I have worked with and coached young people most of my life on a volunteer basis. Teaching has always been one of my passions. I have worked with students with learning disabilities in my eleven years of teaching. I have taught all the core subjects from grades 3-12. My favorite subject to teach/tutor is math. I enjoy seeing my students progress in their learning.
I like to challenge my students to reach their potential. I realize there is a fine line between challenging and frustrating my students. I like for my students to figure out math problems on their own as much as possible. My teaching style is to model new material, do guided practice, and independent practice. Hopefully by the time they finish this process they have mastered the particular lesson.

More About This Tutor...

I have taught Language Arts and Reading for 15 years at the middle school level. My Florida certification includes Middle School and ESOL endorsements. For the last six months, I have been employed as a tutor in the athletic program at the University of Florida. I am also pursuing a Master's Degree in English Education at this institution.
My idea of a perfect classroom is one in which all students are actively involved. I believe in encouraging students to work together to create their own understandings of the subject matter and how it relates to their lives. It is important that students are able to apply school studies to the real world outside of the classroom.

I graduated from Vanderbilt in 2004 with a major in philosophy and a minor in geology. My overall GPA was 3.674/4.000. I enjoy using both sides of my brain, so to speak. Through philosophy, I mastered formalities of the English language and developed an aptitude for critical and logical thinking. Through geology, I focused on the practical through the application of mathematical and scientific concepts. I have tutored students in math, English, and the sciences. There is no subject area I can't tackle!
I enjoy helping others understand concepts that they are struggling with. It is very gratifying when a student has that "a ha" moment. I am a little strict with instruction. If a student is not paying attention or has not completed an assignment that I've asked him/her to do, I will not overlook it. I think that, in the interest of the end goal of improving grades, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In my doctoral program, I am specializing in working with students with special needs and disabilities. Therefore, I strongly believe that every child can learn, but I realize that different children learn in different ways. I have learned and have experience implementing strategies and techniques to enable children to learn. I am very patient, easy going, and considerate, and my goal is to always provide children with the best education possible.
I first began my love of teaching and tutoring children when I was a senior in high school. As the president of my school's National Honor Society, I began a tutoring program that enabled elementary and middle school students to be tutored by high school students. I continued to volunteer and tutor students while I earned my BS in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University. I am furthering my interest in education ... read more

After earning a Bachelor’s degree in a Social Science from the University of Florida, I feel that I have gained a well rounded education in all areas including English, mathematics, biology and natural sciences.I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Public Health because I love to learn. I have been working with children ages 3-14 since I was 15 years old. I spent my summers working as a summer camp counselor. In college I worked for an organization called America Reads and tutored approximately 10 elementary students in reading. Together we read books at their specific reading levels and played games to that allowed them to build better reading and writing skills.
After working with children for several years, I believe that every child can learn and do great as long as they are shown patience, compassion, and are rewarded for their good work and improvement. I think th ... read more

I like to learn where the student is (not the age/grade, etc) and build from there. Success for the student is very important because without confidence, we are all lost. I like to be organized with certain levels to be attained. Achieving those levels and goals sometimes calls for creativity and diversity. I like to think of myself as creative and adaptable. I have many materials which have proven to be very successful for building confidence and ability while filling in the missing gaps for the student. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning.
I tutored children from the neighborhood so often, I decided to get paid for it. I received my Bachelor degree in Anthropology and my "lifetime" teaching credential (any self contained) from California. When I retired, I discovered I still wanted to teach. I was in S ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught writing at the college level for more than eight years. I have taught at two state universities, one of the top ten community colleges in the US, and a private technical college. I have taught both remedial and pre-college English, English 101, English 102, American Literature, Creative Writing, Technical Communication, and Writing for Management. I can help with study skills, with master plans, and with reading comprehension and interpretation. In writing, I can help students with drafting, revision, style, and of course, grammar, syntax, and mechanics. I am also quite familiar in working with students who speak another language at home.
I seek to help all students gain confidence in their writing and reading abilities. I have helped students in honing these skills in order to use writing for discovery, for organization, planning, and forethought, and for cr ... read more

Hands on teaching and kinesthetic learning are key to success in my mind. I love to involve the student's entire body in the learning process. From their senses to their movements to memory device techniques in the form of song or poem, using alternative methods of teaching seems more effective in the learning process.
As a Cum Laude graduate from the University of Florida, I continue to hold a high level of discipline in every aspect of life. Whether it be at work, at home, or at school, I feel it is imperative to do your best no matter what the situation. Upon graduation at the age of twenty, I began teaching undergraduate courses for UF. This was an honor, but it was not challenging enough. It was not until I helped students with severe mental and physical disabilities that I felt fulfilled in my profession. Being able to teach student who are eager to learn, but have obs ... read more
