Teaching is a learning process of it's own.

I tend to go with the constructive mode of teaching. I expect the best from each individual learner, as from what their ability level can manage. I am very flexible in the way I teach, if something does not work, then I can change my approach and level of instruction to meet the needs of the student.
I have been teaching ESL/EFL for the last six years, both in Japan and the US. The types of EFL students I have taught range from true-beginner to near native level speakers; ages ranged from toddler to senior. I have been teaching English Composition for the last year and a half. I have worked as a graphic designer for the last five years. I have pursued my artistic career in oil paining since 2001.

A Little Bit About Me...

Current communications major and English minor. I have previous teaching experience, I've taught in an elementary setting as well as a middle school setting. Nothing is more important than the student actually being able to comprehend what is being taught in his/her classroom. Once they grasp the knowledge they will gain a sense of pride in themselves this motivating them to continue to do well.
Hands in teaching style. No student will leave my session with a question.

I am going to school for elementary education. I have younger siblings who I have tutored before as well as other kids that have needed my help. I have taught at my high school tutoring classes and even helped people my age back in high school. It's a great experience as you learn along with who you are teaching as well.

More About This Tutor...

I am currently a junior in a very challenging high school which is an international school and is number nine in the nation and number 4 in the state of Texas. I have many goals and I want to motivate other students to set high goals. I love helping other students strenghten their weaknesses and I have the patience and passion to do so. There is no sweeter satisfaction than watching a kid's knowledge expand.
I am able to teach online and in person with the same efficiency.

Every problem has a solution, every weakness can be strength

Over 25 years of teaching experience in both junior high and high school courses. I enjoy the challenges of trying to help students understand the material but also learn how the student learns. This accomplishment allows student to accommodate their teachers teaching style and be able to work together at a balanced medium. Our goal is to learn and learn to adjust to others. Having difficulties comprehending, addressing behaviors that may interfere with learning is consider a challenge for both student and teacher alike. With a little adjustment to behavior modification and parent support in order to encourage and stimulate learning in educational setting or environment and home.
My teaching style adjusts to student need, however, it leans more towards visual-colorful and tactile when possible. With use of various visual tools and resources and applying the student learning s ... read more
