A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent High School graduate. During my senior year, I was a student teacher intern at an elementary school for a third grade class. I helped students one on one or in groups with homework, classwork, tests, reading, etc. I learned how to change my style of teaching since every student is different and learns differently.

I'm a hands on person so I will try explaining verbally and if that doesn't work then will demonstrate personally until him/her are confident enough to do it their selves.

My comments on tutoring Writing Skills : Writing classes (for ESOL) taught at University of Texas, Brownsville

I spent two decades of my professional life teaching English in Germany, authorizing and co-authorizing textbooks for the English classroom. Since I have been living in the United States I enjoy teaching German from beginner to college level. My teaching experience ranges from children at the elementary school level till adults, who need German language skills for their career of for enrichment. During my stay in the US, I had the opportunity to develop curricula for teaching German in public schools as well as private schools and wrote articles in the field of German literature. Undoubtedly, my academic background (MA in German and English and a Ph.D. in the field of education) help me to provide solid work for my students. Back in Germany as well here in the States, I had ample opportunities to teach individual students German or English as a Foreign Language. The age range was ... read more

In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that the best tutors are those who can shape each session to the tutee's individual needs and personality. This is most easily accomplished in developing a flexible approach constituted by a blend of directive and non-directive tactics. With this approach, my goal is always to aid the tutee in feeling comfortable and confident in developing new ways of thinking about his or her work, and, from there, helping him or her along the journey to success.
In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my co ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Whether it is in front of a class of 40 or one-on-one, I have been endowed not only with the talent to teach, but also with the God-given ability to motivate. Most students hate my guts for the first week or two because I do not tolerate underachievement from anyone, including parents; but down the line the most frequent evaluation I receive is, “Mr. C, you are awesome.” There is no one who cannot be motivated to learn something well; and I always associate what must be learned with what a student's passion is or in what he/she is already interested. My students do not just learn the subject I teach. They learn how to learn and think "out of the box" and how to become a success.
My teaching credentials are in English and education. However... At the middle school level and high school level, I have taught/tutored English composition, geography, history ... read more
