...graduation, I have taught foreign languages and culture at the university level. However, I have also worked with learners of all ages, from 3rd grade to senior citizen, in both school and tutoring settings.

Learning someone else's language shows that you respect their culture and want to understand it....

...and high school, I can recognize gaps in my understanding of certain subjects and where my strengths lie. I believe that from this experience I can fill in the gaps for younger students, building partially from my own academic experience and partially from my knowledge in specific areas, and then tailoring that experience to the needs of the student. I think it is difficult, nearing impossible to learn in an uncomfortable or unwelcoming environment. I...

...students in intro-level courses. I learned during my time as both a TA and a supplemental instructor in these courses that helping people learn about their potential in a constructive and encouraging environment is something that I really appreciate.

...over five years of tutoring experience, predominantly as a Reading and Writing tutor. My students have included elementary school students just barely gaining an appreciation for reading, first year college students seeking assistance in essay writing, and adult learners wishing to advance their reading skills after years of struggling. I understand that everyone learns and builds confidence differently and, therefore, I tailor my lessons to suit individual needs. I have gained my students' trust through...

...working at the NIH. I have experience tutoring college, high school, and middle school students. During tutoring sessions I like to pinpoint where the problem areas are and begin by working with students on the fundamentals.
