I have the qualifications and experience to teach both Spanish language and ESL (I am a BridgeTEFL certified ESL instructor), and I have worked with children, teens, and adults as a private school teacher, language institute instructor, and private tutor. My ten plus years of Spanish education have given me a deep understanding of the language, making me well-equipped to...

...like solving a puzzle. Unpacking each word in a Yeats poem is like gathering jigsaw pieces, and constructing a thesis for an essay is like putting them together. Algebra and Geometry are subjects that naturally lend themselves to puzzling. Each equation has a solution. I enjoyed learning these subjects, and I love sharing that with new people. When I am a student, the subject matter is the puzzle. When I am a teacher, my student...

...in language arts. I love helping students of all ages--elementary age through adult--in a variety of English language skills. Among my favorite subjects to teach are all types of writing (including research writing), literature analysis, public speaking, foundations of logic in persuasive writing & speeches, and yes...you may call me a Grammar Nerd--because I do love grammar!! Whether you are a competent writer in need of a little support, a faint-hearted writer, a panicked writer,...

There is nothing better than teaching how to build on fundamentals and explaining concepts in different ways until it "clicks" in a...

...the standardized tests and application processes for both secondary school and college. Aside from tutoring, I also like theatre, dance, ice skating and chocolate!

I love to read and write. I enjoy sharing that passion with others and helping them find that passion for themselves. One thing that I enjoy about tutoring is the light in a students eye when they start to understand the difficult subject at hand. I know that some subjects are more challenging for others and I enjoy making the English subject fun.... Education is about constantly learning.

I want to inspire students to read-- from the newspaper to graphic novels to novels. When I am teaching, I want students to feel comfortable with English Language Arts. I want to allow students to be themselves in a safe learning environment where they can grow and be creative in the learning process.

In addition, I have privately tutored many students in both French and ESL. My experience in ESL is broad, having taught people from all over the world from beginners to adults....
