"Education Is Not the Filling of a Pail, But the Lighting of a Fire" - W.B. YeatsThis philosophy has always guided my approach to teaching. I believe that getting a student from A to B is certainly critical, but what is even more essential is the 'aha' moment when a difficult problem clicks, a love for writing comes about, a passion is ignited, and/or inspiration is born. This is what makes a student a lifelong learner who doesn't shy away from a challenge or the unknown. I like to inject fun and humor into learning and am the product of some really excellent educators who I like to think inform my teaching style.My tutoring experience began nearly four years ago when I began working with an organization that helps prepare under-served students for the SAT and the college admissions process. I enjoyed breaking students' preconceived notions about what they could and could not do, and I value the interpersonal relationships with my students that I was able to create and maintain to this day.I graduated with my undergrad in 2012 with degrees in International Relations and Spanish, and I was awarded Distinguished Honors in International Relations. I also minored in Latin American Studies and studied abroad for a semester in Madrid.

I believe that the main goal of teaching is to promote learning while simultaneously creating a comfortable, yet stimulating and motivating environment that encourages the students to discuss new ideas and concepts. In addition to creating a stimulating and comfortable learning environment, I also understand that students benefit most from dynamic teaching methods and techniques. I will accommodate to the students using different teaching styles and methods that range from lecture based lessons, interactive discussions and kinesthetic approaches to learning. I believe that it is important to have a structured learning routine, but at the same time, it is imperative to try a variety of approaches to the material, as a way to reach out to as many students as possible. My goal as an instructor is to emphasize diverse approaches to learning, while simultaneously working with students individually to meet their personal and academic goals.Moreover, my teaching philosophy focuses on a collaborative learning approach. I implement a classroom and learning environment based on student input and open collaboration that contributes to the curriculum and grading criteria of the class. In the classes that I taught at the University of Florida, I used group activities where the students not only discussed classroom topics such as homework and basic grammar concepts in French, but I also emphasize the discussion of current events in the United States and France, but also globally. I prefer to use activities that force the students to think critically about the world outside of the classroom and the textbook, while simultaneously using their language skills to communicate their beliefs and ideas. In extension to my teaching philosophy, I also believe that it is important to continue to learn, grow and constantly develop and strive for more as a teacher. I believe that the students model their teacher's learning habits and behaviors and as a result, I strive to communicate my passion and interest in the French language and culture. If the instructor does not show an interest or passion for the material and for learning, the students will be less likely to be motivated to learn and succeed. Additionally, I also make sure that I am updated and knowledgeable of the current formal learning and teaching theories, so that I am able to teach the best classes possible.

I am a professional educator and have been teaching Spanish for the past 3 years. I learned Spanish in the U.S. Air Force and worked as a translator in the intensive post-9/11 military environment. After an 8-year career as an accountant and tax auditor, I decided to return to the classroom and pursue my true passion of teaching. My goal is to create a growth mindset in my students and to foster learners who are not afraid to try, fail, and keep trying. My end-goal is to create a more caring and accepting world through education.

Hi everyone. I am a masters-educated teacher who has worked in three different countries, namely Japan, Vietnam and, most recently, Spain for the past seven years and am happy to be here again in my hometown of San Diego! My previous jobs included teaching English and organizing film-related activities at an American community college in Vietnam; assisting local English and History/Science teachers in Spain; and a time on the prestigious Japan Exchange and Teaching Program.I have also served as a Japanese-English, English-Japanese translator for various projects as I have studied the language for over four years at San Diego State, as well as lived five years in Japan. I have kept my skills mostly by keeping in touch with my friends abroad as well as reading Japanese books I have lugged around between countries. I hold a Japanese Language Proficiency Test qualification of N2 which is the second-highest level, so, while I am not a native, beginners and intermediate students can rest assured that I can help them with those pesky kanji compounds and keigo while also learning how to speak more naturally.As for my Spanish, I am proud to report that I finished my masters at the University of Alcala de Henares in Spain and, like much of San Diego these days, have spoken Spanish since birth. My primary focus is Latino Spanish but I am also comfortable with the Castilian variety since that I see is just as prominent in schools.In-between these jobs, I have also worked as a photographer and filmmaker with my work being published in the "2:46 #Quakebook" charity book, Otaku USA magazine (yes, I am something of a nerd) and, of all things, the billboard of a Tokyo hot dog shop. I have a BA in Television, Film and New Media Production from San Diego State, so I am also more than happy to extend my knowledge of effective camera techniques, shot composition, and post-production on both still and motion pictures.I am a strong believer in helping students grow to become autonomous in their studies. It doesn't happen overnight but when it does happen, it will acknowledged and built further upon. I believe in making sessions dynamic and adapt to student's needs as I see them and as told to me. I don't get offended by students comments or suggestions because, after all, teaching is a reciprocal and parallel process.I look forward to being able to meet and help you in your needs!Cheers,Fernando

I have been tutoring for six years in Math, Physics, Chemistry and Spanish. I started self-employed tutoring younger students. I have also tutored high school and college students and have enjoyed every single minute of it! No student is the same, and with my experience, I have learned to adapt to different tutoring and learning styles. Accommodating to a student's needs is something challenging but extremely rewarding. I look forward to meeting you!

I am a doctor-in-training and I believe that every student has their unique style of learning, which requires a unique style of teaching as well. My goal is to ensure every student learns in a way that helps them understand and retain the knowledge better.I believe you understood the material only when you can explain any person in lay-man terms. I try to understand every student's goals and expectations prior to the session, which helps me work with them efficiently. I like to form a trust-based relationship with the students, which could enhance their learning.

I am a graduate of the University of Oregon where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Romance Languages (French and Spanish) with a minor in European Studies and graduated with honors. Since graduation, I have traveled extensively, living in Northern Ireland, France and Germany for 7 years altogether. Four of those years were spent in Berlin where I learned German studying Philosophy and working as a tour guide. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Foreign Languages.In my experience helping students of all ages, ranging from helping with homework and test prep for school to the late bloomer looking to acquire further education after their "formal" education has ended, my goal is to make the student comfortable and empower them giving them the confidence in their own abilities to achieve. I am a firm proponent of education believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my two dogs, reading, watching all kinds of sports, jogging, and most of all writing songs, singing, and playing guitar and piano in my band.

I have a Ph.D. in French literature from the University of Kansas. I also spent an academic year in Strasbourg and a summer in Paris. French is my most enduring passion. I was an Instructor of French at the University level for over 20 years, both as a T.A. and Fixed-Term Assistant Professor. I always researched new ways of engaging students, from creating new games to incorporating culture in language lessons. My favorite teaching experience was tutoring students one-on-one. During these sessions, I learned more candidly the students' needs and was inspired to come up with new ways of explaining and practicing concepts. I was grateful to my students who sought help during office appointments, because my teaching improved in response to their questions. I believe one-on-one interaction is one of the most effective ways to learn a subject, because the learning is active: the student is engaged and the feedback is immediate. In addition to French, I have a B.A. in English from the University of Kansas. I enjoy very much reading literature and I write notes on a regular basis. I often revise my writing and pay attention to detail. I am interested in the nuances of language and am careful with standard grammar. I would enjoy tutoring students in English to help them acquire the tools to edit their own writing for improved clarity and expression. Finally, I also have three years of experience tutoring Algebra as an undergraduate student through the Kansas Algebra Program (for 25 hours a week), and I taught Calculus as a T.A. for a year and a half while studying math at the M.A. level. I want to be a lifelong learner and tutoring is my way of sharing my passion for learning with others.
