I was an English teacher in China, and I am fluent in both English and Chinese. I can help tutor people who are dyslexic and people with learning disorders. I can teach basic math, typing, as well as reading and writing English. As my mother could not speak English well, I've had lots of experience helping her with reading, writing, typing, as well as how to use a computer. I have a B.A. and can work with people who are preparing for their GED or ASVAB.

English ESOL is one of my top subjects! Tutored immigrant students (elementary & adult) (see experience)

I have worked as an English tutor for elementary Egyptian students attending a summer program. I have been working as a student athlete tutor for French and the honors program for the past 2 years with varying levels of frequency. I have mainly worked with one athlete who is studying French. I also worked with a Brazilian immigrant for a short time working to improve his English. I have studied ESL teaching (experience above). I have 4 years unpaid experience as a children's ministry coordinator and instructor. I planned lessons and taught children ages 2-12. I have studied math up to the AP Calculus level with minor tutoring experience.

More About This Tutor...

I began working as an English teacher 6 years ago, when I was living in Japan. I had originally moved to Japan to work as a designer, but after a year I started teaching English, which is something I'd always wanted to do. Over the following 4 years I worked at 4 different kindergartens, all of which were affiliated with Sunnyside International (my employer). I also taught various afterschool elementary classes and tutored students of different ages, from ages 5-adult. For the past two years I have been living in Guangzhou, China, where I worked as an English teacher in the International School of Jinan University. I taught five classes of freshmen Oral English and English Writing. I also taught English once a week at a Chinese elementary school and taught corporate English classes at the Samsung and Kumho branch offices in Guangzhou.

While tutoring elementary school students in Detroit during college, I discovered a passion for teaching. Since then, I have worked with students of all ages and backgrounds. My experiences include teaching English abroad, coordinating an after-school program, mentoring at-risk teenagers and working in preschools. In addition, I have worked as a counselor at summer camps and volunteer with the Big Brothers program.
Students respond to my combination of structure, creativity and enthusiasm. Positive reinforcement is a key element to my teaching style. All students need encouragement and maintaining a positive attitude at all times helps ensure success. I enjoy seeing the progress of students and take pride in knowing that I took part in the process.

I have twenty-nine years of experience in teaching middle and high school students. I have taught high school English, Bible, history, and speech/drama; and middle school English, Bible, science, history, speech/drama, and math through Pre-Algebra. During these years I taught multi-ethnic classes, mainly in urban areas. I also have tutored students in all of the above-listed classes plus SAT II Literature. In addition to correcting students' work, I have proofread a large number of papers of friends and have taught ESL to Spanish adults and English to students in China.
By the time that I have spent a short time with my students, they know that I care for them and want them to be the best that they can be; they know that I expect good work from them and want each to do his or her best. As I learn my students, I realize my need to differentiate my teaching styles to fit my stu ... read more

From an early age, growing up in a loving & driven environment, it became overwhelmingly apparent to me that, just as food & exercise nourish the physical body, education nourishes the mind, spirit, & soul. Thus far, I have earned two bachelors degrees: a BS in Spanish & a BA in Finance, which have both been a tremendous advantage in this progressive, global economy. I did not realize how qualified I was to teach/tutor until this past year when I worked with inner city youth, as a part of the NCLB program here in Metro Nashville. I worked with children from any & every ethnicity, background, & culture. While my actual title as a "tutor," has only been present about a year, I have always been a mentor, kindred spirit, & positive influence to my family, friends, & on occasion, the lonely passer-by.
Family & friends have expressed to me that my open-mindedness & clever & creative na ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from Seattle Pacific University with a degree in English, I spent a year working as a reading tutor in an elementary school through AmeriCorps (the specific program I worked with was the Washington Reading Corps). Following my year in AmeriCorps I spent nearly 3 years working in the Seattle School District as a substitute instructional assistant. During this time I worked in many of the same schools, providing small group and individual tutoring and educational support. In addition, I earned my TESOL certificate from Western Washington University in 2004. Part of this 27-credit program included a 2-month teaching practicum in Mexico. I have also spent time tutoring ESL in evening programs over the past few years through organizations such as North Seattle Community College and St. James ESL in Seattle. I have experience working with a wide variety of ages.

As an English major at the University of Florida, I found a love for language learning and language acquisition; as a result, I declared Linguistics and TESL as additional majors. In these majors, I became quit ept at understanding grammatical principles and language learning theory. I began volunteering my knowledge to foreign language learners and found that I loved helping others learn. After receiving my BA, I began teaching writing and reading to native and non-native speakers at Santa Fe Community College in Gainesville, FL. As an English teacher, I also found other job opportunities at labs on campus and with private tutoring companies. One of the labs I worked in, the CLAST lab, also tutored math: college algebra, statistics, geometry, and logic. In this lab, I learned how to effectively teach math as well. In addition, I began teaching speed reading with a private seminar gr ... read more

Based on previous experience I have discovered that the same teaching style does not work for every child. I find that explaining each topic and asking the child question gives a clear indication of their understanding. Based on responses to the questions adjustments may be made to address each child's need.
As the daughter of educators, I have been exposed to the education system all my life. As a result of this exposure, I became very interested in tutoring and teaching. I taught for two years as a substitute teacher before attending law school. I previously worked as a substitute teacher with Morrow Elementary in North Lauderdale, Florida where I taught test-taking strategies for the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test. Most recently, I have volunteered with Youth Encouragement services as a tutor.

I enjoy working with children and adults. My teaching style is tailored to the individual, as individuals learn differently and at various paces. I am very patient, and flexible. I believe that structure is necessary, without sacrificing creativity. I am a firm believer that when working with children, communication with the parent(s) is necessary. Parental input/involvement is always encouraged. I believe it also key to work closely with or in conjunction with the school system and other educators involved with the child.
My experience working with children and adults with Communication Disorders/Cognitive Deficits has provided me with an understanding and experience to assist others in many areas. I have an MS in Communication Disorders. This includes learning disabilities that involve language comprehension and expression, and problem solving deficits. I have also worked ... read more
