...teaching French, ESL, and AP English. I love to travel and have frequently integrated that into my career as an educator: I worked as an ESL teacher at a language magnet school in China, tutored English while spending the first year of my MA studying in France, and developed French curriculum materials as part of a Fulbright visit to Cameroon. I have always been an enthusiastic learner, and my work with students has demonstrated the...

...of English, writing, social studies, philosophy, and even foreign language for multiple institutions. I'm also fortunate to have a strongly holistic view of life and education, and an excellent track record with my employers. My strongest qualities are being loyal, yet flexible. I possess extensive knowledge of multiple subjects, educational situations and organizations, and I enjoy bringing innovative, succinct ideas and suggestions.Therefore, I feel I have much to contribute to your success!... I think that motivation is the most important feature a successful teacher should have. Children have shorter attention spans, so if the teacher carries a careless attitude towards students, then they will not have much success learning. An excellent instructor should also have his/her students' trust. An example would be encouraging them to ask questions, after all, children have very curious minds. The teacher should also let students know that there are no dumb questions. I know that when I was in elementary school, I was very shy to ask questions, but when my grade school teachers assured me that there was no such thing as a dumb question, that eliminated some of my insecurity. Inadvertently, whether the teacher realizes this or not, it can gain the students' trust to come to him/her for anything. The final trait of a successful teacher, if not the most important trait, is to have passion for teaching. If one is in the field to get the summers and weekends off, or thinks that teaching is an easy job, success is a pipe-dream. There is a huge difference between having to be in the classroom versus wanting to be in it. Without passion, not only are we torturing ourselves and wasting our time, we are prohibiting the young generation from learning.

...science and technology and a minor in math. I am currently working on completing my applications for graduate programs and hope to work in either the legal or public policy fields. Through school I always excelled at math, research and essay writing. I was in academic honors programs starting in high school and continuing through college.

...subjects that I am best fit to help others with include: pre-algebra, algebra 1 & 2, geometry, pre-calculus, and ACT math. I have tutored several individuals in these subjects and have been told that my service has greatly improved their grades.

I also use simple tricks and memorizing techniques that...

I try my level best to foster independent learning practices, confidence, and creative problem solving in those I work with.

...high school level in English related subjects. On top of that, I have experience working with special needs children and tutoring based on new common-core standards. I believe in tutoring in a way that doesn't make learning feel like learning. If a student is more involved in what they are learning, answers will come naturally. Outside of tutoring, I love going to Disneyland and traveling. I love being in touch with nature so I spend...

...into digestible bits of information that were absorbed and retained by my students. I tailor my lessons and teaching methods to each one of my students' unique objectives, propensities, and learning style. My students achieve significant improvements in their grades and test scores (several have also been offered admission to elite universities).

...to teach many students. Rather, my goal is to have any number of students, be it 1 or 100, actually learn something from me. I want to inspire a love of learning and a creative can-do attitude so that when we encounter a problem, we can use our problem solving skills to figure out a solution. Tutoring is not just about passing a class or test, it is about understanding concepts, ideas, and philosophies that...
