Mateo
SAT Subject Test in Spanish with Listening Tutor • +28 Subjects
Born and raised in Colombia! Fully Fluent in English as well. As a native Spanish speaker, I am eager to help students improve their Spanish reading, writing, and speaking abilities, offering insights into both the language and the rich cultural contexts in which it is used. My background in anthropology and Latin American studies allows me to provide a unique perspective on language learning, connecting linguistic skills with cultural understanding. As a cultural anthropologist, educator, and native Spanish speaker, I am passionate about helping students explore the complexities of human societies, develop critical thinking skills, and master language proficiency. My academic journey, which includes a Master's degree from Florida Atlantic University and ongoing PhD studies at the University of Calgary, has equipped me with a deep understanding of anthropology and interdisciplinary approaches to social sciences. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience working with diverse student populations. As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at both Florida Atlantic University and the University of Calgary, I have assisted in designing course materials, facilitated engaging discussions, and provided personalized support to students in subjects such as Introductory Anthropology, Philosophy, and Medical Anthropology. My role as an Adjunct Professor at Florida Atlantic University allowed me to develop a comprehensive curriculum exploring the cultural, historical, and sociopolitical dimensions of peace and violence, encouraging students to analyze complex global issues from an anthropological perspective. I am particularly passionate about tutoring anthropology, Latin American studies, research methods, and Spanish language skills. My approach to tutoring is student-centered, focusing on creating a supportive atmosphere that facilitates open dialogue and intellectual exploration. I believe in adapting my teaching style to meet the individual needs of each student, whether that means providing additional explanations, using visual aids, or relating concepts to real-world examples. For language learners, this might involve immersive conversation practice, culturally relevant materials, or tailored exercises to address specific language learning goals. My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that education is a transformative tool for personal growth and social understanding. I strive to make complex anthropological concepts and language skills accessible and relevant to students' lives, encouraging them to think critically about the world around them. I also value inclusivity and diversity in education, having experience working with English as a Second Language (ESL) students and adapting my teaching methods to accommodate various learning styles and backgrounds. Outside of academia, I have a keen interest in museum education and public anthropology. My experiences as a Museum Educator at the Miami Children's Museum and as a Research Intern at History Miami Museum have given me valuable insights into communicating complex ideas to diverse audiences. These experiences inform my tutoring approach, allowing me to make anthropological concepts and language learning engaging and relatable to students from various backgrounds. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring new cultures through travel, participating in academic conferences, and engaging in community-based research projects. These activities not only enrich my personal life but also contribute to my ability to bring fresh perspectives and real-world examples into my tutoring sessions, particularly when it comes to language and cultural studies.

Susan
PSAT Writing Skills Tutor • +44 Subjects
I am fortunate; I get to do the best job in the world. While teaching is my second career, it was always what I wanted to do. When I graduated from college, I was offered a position with my college's admissions and marketing office, where I had been working to put myself through school. It was a tremendous opportunity, and launched an eighteen-year career helping high school students make important decisions about their futures, and navigate an often complex admissions and financial aid system. I loved working with students, being around bright, engaging people, and doing work that made a difference. But each time I walked through a high school to present a workshop on writing college essays or preparing for college interviews, I was reminded of how deeply I still wanted to be in a classroom. So I took the plunge, and now spend my days teaching social studies to great students at a great school. I have taught world history, American history, sociology, psychology, economics, and even developed a high school course in teaching for students seeking a career in education. I am passionate about understanding how the past has shaped the present, and helping students recognize their critical role in protecting and preserving democracy. In addition to teaching course curricula, I work with students on writing skills, standardized test preparation, and college essays, because all of these skills will help them reach their academic goals. As a teacher, I believe that it is critical to help students develop the ability to regulate their own learning, and implement meta-cognitive strategies that will serve them in college and beyond. When I'm not teaching, I am a mom to a high school sophomore, a long-distance mom to two college students, a gardener who grows lots of organic vegetables, and an avid reader of anything historical. If I can help you in a specific subject area, or with essays, test preparation, or homework support, either face-to-face or on-line, let me know!
