More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching ESL for 25 years to elementary,secondary and adult students. I also teach high school English in summer school programs. I have an excellent background in all areas of English language learning as well as grammar, writing and reading.
Because I am trained in ESL methodology, I have learned many ways to help students learn. I am patient and use many visuals and graphic organizers to help students organize and understand information. I beleive all students need to learn in an environment that fosters their unique learning style that will allow them to utilize their best skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a master's degree in language education and certification as a public school teacher in two states, New York and New Jersey. In the last three years I have taught and tutored German, English, English as a Second Language, and standardized test preparation (including SAT, ACT, GRE, and TOEFL) in a variety of settings, including a public high school, a private Saturday school for heritage speakers of German, a small music college/tutoring center, and at the large state university SUNY Stony Brook. I have successfully helped students from ages nine to adult achieve their goals in whole-class, small-group, and one-on-one tutoring settings.
As far as possible, I adapt my teaching style to my students' needs. When I was teaching beginner-level German to an adult opera singer, I focused on helping her develop her conversational skills and pronunciation, using English to explain ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught and tutored in South Korea for over the last 5 years. I taught mostly English. I developed the students speaking, writing, and reading skilly. I have taught math, science, and social studies too. I have many years of management and training experience.
I enjoy teaching to students. My classes are very interactive. I want them speaking a lot. In addition having them repeat and reinforce their skills throughout the lecture. I am patient with all students no matter what level they are at. I am very outgoing and friendly. I do a lot of motivational speaking in my classes, so I can get the best out of all students.

I have tutored English to Masters, Graduation, English Language Diploma Courses’ and school students. I had, and will try my level best to help them reach the height of success.

A Little Bit About Me...

Coming from a poor background I was very much determined to change my family economic situation. I work hard and smart to make this happen and in the process I have acquired training and learning skills that will empower students from every background. In 1998 I founded a non-profit organization GHAPE and I have been providing varied trainings to the needy to explore their potentials. In 2008 I was an adjunct professor at the University of Bridgeport. I will again be teaching one course to undergraduate in the Fall of 2010.
My teaching methods are determined by my audience, that is the student. I use lecture method, inquiry, demonstration, visualization, questions and answers, discovery and constructivism which is a student center appraoch. I hold that students can reach their potential if carefully guided. I work each day striving to pull the best out of each student.

As a passionate of the french language, I am proud to say that I speak fluently the version used in France and that I can tell the difference among many other countries'. As a native speaker, I passed the CLEP examination with a score of 80/80 towards my degree. I speak french at home and my 14-year old daughter does, too. I have about 8 undergraduate college credits and 8 graduate credits. I have about 24 undergraduate college credits in Bio, Inorganic Chemistry, Sciences for Allied Health. I also studied high school organic chemistry. I would certainly prepare each session in advance and adapt to each individual's learning style.
My teaching style is to catch up mistakes and correct them but my priority is in teaching by showing examples or patterns, by practicing repetitions, by having learner write. For instance, when I took the initiative of teaching french to my newborn (now ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that a love of school and learning begins with confidence in one's own abilities. Some find it easy, and others need a certain dose of encouragement and guidance to gain that self-assurance. As a tutor, I think it’s important to provide consistent practice and celebrate small successes so that the student rediscovers how good it feels to do well. In addition to regular exercises, I take the time to explain how and why things work and what their applications are in life outside school. I believe that this helps the student understand the rationale behind their efforts and can spark more enthusiasm to learn. I also try to identify each student’s special talents and incorporate them into my curriculum. That way, they can learn to identify what they are good at and how to apply those skills to any subject.
I have always loved to teach – even as a child in front of a tiny bla ... read more
