My comments on tutoring English : I taught English for 8 years in high school; well versed in the language.

I cater to the individual learning style of the student. I have a true passion for teaching and helping others and have had great success with my students.
Master's in Communication and English, advanced minor in Spanish-- 12 years experience in teaching in high school and at college. I have traveled and studied in Madrid and have attended local classes for five years, earning excellent grades in my coursework. I have done a lot of volunteer work in the schools, helping all levels of Spanish teachers. This has been a rewarding, fun experience for me.

A lifelong lover of reading, writing, and language in general, I supported myself through college by tutoring other students in Spanish and helping them edit/write their papers. Since then, I have tutored students between grades 6 and 12 in English related subjects, including spelling, vocabulary, and general writing. The past four months, I lived in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, where I spent two days a week tutoring local students in English as a second language, in addition to generally improving my Spanish skills.
My teaching style is extremely fluid. I've found that adapting classes to the unique needs and interests of each individual student is the best way to making a lasting impact on their educational growth.

I believe my teaching style is very adaptive to the age and need of the learner, however, I require parental support, dedication, and willingness on the part of the student to make my tutoring approach successful. I believe we are all lifelong learners and with hard work and dedication can achieve any goal we have for ourselves. I do not see myself as very strict nor am I very lenient.
I have never tutored before, however, I have taught Sunday School for two years, I am currently volunteering at two Museums where I am engaged in educational activities, and I have experience in home schooling my 5th grader. I have just recently graduated from college and will begin my graduate studies this August. I have received a GPA of 3.89 and I am an excellent writer, editor, researcher, and test preper. I have passed numerous test, including various CLEPs, GED, and TOEFEL in the highest percen ... read more

I am currently attending Air Academy High School as a senior. My expected date of graduation is May 17, 2012. I am studying multiple core classes but take a special interest in English. I have taken multiple classes including grammar, writing, and everywhere in between. I have also taken an assortment of Math classes. Now I am currently taking Functions, Statistics, and Trig. My younger brother and I both have moderate ADHD. While this is technically not a disability it puts a strain on learning new subjects. Throughout my educational career, especially high school, I have learned different methods of studying that help me succeed just as well as my fellow classmates. I believe that everyone is capable of learning a subject. I have been told I am a patient person. It has been scientifically proven that children learn in different ways, something teachers don't always understand. I am a v ... read more

My comments on tutoring English : I speak English very well. Grammar is highly important to me.

I have not tutored as an actual job ever, though I have done many other things that would be considered tutoring. I help my 12 year old nephew with his homework and have done so for about a year. I taught Sunday School at church for two years. My friends and other students have always come to me for help with essays and other English related assignments. Whether it be general proofreading, paragraph writing, paragraph flow, etc, that is the type of help I gave. I also have several Korean friends at college who are learning English as their second language, and one Finnish friend who learned English as her fifth language. I explain the basics to them, and help them learn English. I've learned that I do well in this field, and would like to continue with a paying job.

Knowledge has come from observation and describing it.

The first thing I can say is necessary is to recognize the student can also teach the teacher. I respect the student's intelligence and I also devised techniques that build on acquiring knowledge. So if a child knows how to tell time and can count to 100, he of she is capable of learning how to multiply, From that comes division, and now they are ready for simple algebra. For science, E = mc2 is the building block for astronomy which leads into physics which leads to the speed of light and the compostion of elements within the cores of star and the structure of atoms, creation of molecules, life forms, and Newtons prism and the spectrum ot light to math and the metric system and the old systems of measures on which it is based, to history of the development of writing.

Taking the fear out of testing, one session at a time

Currently I am tutoring Biology (among other sciences) as well as English at Pueblo Community College. I have been there for close to a half of a year at this point. I also have a 15 year old son who is in the IB program at Palmer. He does very well in school, I like to attribute that partially to my skills. I believe that we can all be our own very best resource in teaching ourselves how to learn and how to seek answers.

More About This Tutor...

The best teachers (and tutors) are able to diagnose why a student is not understanding his schoolwork. Learning "glitches", different learning styles, and a fear of being wrong often contribute to the problem. I try to discern how the student is thinking about the work, and then I use a variety of techniques to guide him/her to understanding. I might model my own thinking, re-present a concept in an imaginative way, or use another learning style in order to capture the student's interest and encourage them to "risk" in order to learn.
I have extensive experience working with students of all ages, from elementary school through junior college. As a parent volunteer, I tutored K-6 students in math and reading. As a Learning Center and Basic Skills instructor at Trinidad State Junior College, I taught classes in math and English, and I worked individually with students on a varie ... read more
