Spanish is one of my top subjects! I began studying Spanish in middle school and have never stopped. Spanish was my second major in university. My love for the language has brought me to live in Costa Rica, where I have been living since 2012. I am currently pursuing my Masters in translation at Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica, a requirement for which is fluency in both English and Spanish. Being a nonnative speaker, I can offer you my insight into how I learned and mastered the Spanish language, especially the tricky grammar.

I, as a teacher, am a tool to help you understand language. My goal is to provide you with the means to comprehend and produce language in the way that most appeals to you. I take your learning style and develop a personalized plan that focuses on your particular needs and weaknesses.

More About This Tutor...

I have worked with children all of my life. I earned a bachelors degree from Skidmore College in 2008 with a major in Social Work and a minor in Early Childhood Education. I also fulfilled the core curriculum classes in math, science, English, and foreign language. I went on to receive a masters degree in Social Work from Boston College in 2009 through their advanced standing program. With my education, background, and work experience, I have extensive knowledge of child development and special education. I have taught and run social skills groups in preschool and elementary classrooms.
I am a strong believer that children all learn differently. I consider myself a visual learner, but try to teach to cater all different learning styles. I believe children learn best when able to relate to the material in some way. I try my best to discover the individual child's learning st ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My passion for Earth Science has lead me to pursue a Master's degree with the hopes of a career change in my future. I am currently a Product Manager, where training staff memebers is a vital part of my job. I would love to use this experience to assist students in a subject area I am excited and comfortable with.
As a parent, I teach in some way everyday. I have learned patience and the importance of repetition and positive feedback. I would love to teach other children, or high school students, about the Earth and its complicated, but awe inspiring processes. Sometimes it just takes one on one attention for a child to gain understanding and confidence in a subject.

I have always enjoyed teaching. It all began when I was really young and I would force my friends to play the students while I played the teacher. I cannot deny the fact that one of the reasons I love to teach is actually quite selfish. I definitely feel a great sense of satisfaction when a student completes a task to the best of their abilities, especially when I have helped them reached that goal. I like to be creative and use humor as my guide in teaching. I feel that comfort is most important in a learning environment and with my personality and my skills I can create such a place for your child. With everything that I have learned and everything that I have yet to learn, I think I can help your child meet his/her potential.
I am currently studying Secondary Education with a concentration in English as SUNY New Paltz. I will be graduating in December 2009. At SUNY New Paltz I h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught Spanish to undergraduate students at the University of Arizona for one year after college. I was a home educator for children from zero to three. I have taught and tutored elementary-aged students as an aide, literacy volunteer and day-care provider. I have taught English as a second language to adult learners. I currently volunteer as a garden educator with elementary-aged children.
I’m a nurturer, with a strong belief in the relational basis of learning. I strive to understand each student’s learning style and incorporate brain-based methods in my teaching. As a linguist, I was trained in the communicative approach, but still adhere to good, old-fashioned grammar and vocabulary work. I have a passion for literature and find it invaluable in teaching both native and foreign language.

More About This Tutor...

My experience in the field of tutoring is personal. I do not have formal previous experience with a formal institution that provides me with students to tutor- instead- my love and passion for reading, writing and literature in general has driven me to tutor friends and family concerning this subject matter. My BA from Wheaton College has given me the necessary background needed to be an influencial tutor in these (and other!) areas. I was just certified as a Yoga Teacher in June of 2010, and though this may seem unrelated, my passion for yoga has further sharpened my communication skills, also preparing me to suceed in this field.
As the oldest of five children I not only love children, but I have a life-time long experience with them. I have babysat for years in my spare time- I am great at communicating and connecting with children. The connection factor is what I believe to be ... read more

I received my BS in civil engineering from a liberal arts university in Boston, MA ranked among the Top 30 universities in the nation, according to US News. My well-rounded education gave me the skills to communicate mathematical ideas and science concepts to any audience, including children. Now I am pursuing a masters degree in secondary math education in hopes of engaging and inspiring students to gain a better understanding of mathematics, and thus build their overall self-confidence. As an engineering student, I had experience empowering students by leading and working at science camps and tutoring at local elementary schools through a literacy corps.
I take a creative approach to learning and cater to each student's unique learning style. I assess their knowledge base, and I make learning fun by explaining and developing ideas in a way they prefer and in a way they best learn ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math.
I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.
