It was then that I knew...

...them. Being a standardize test marker for many years, I have a great understanding of how to prepare students for standardize exams. I like to use animation, music, poetry, chants, games and whatever can make learning fun for each student. I find the blended learning approach to be effective as well with most students; this means using computer software for learning since most students are computer literate. Another important feature to get my students going...

...but to their attitude towards school. In my over six years of tutoring experience, I've helped dozens of students improve their grades, complete stellar college essays and personal statements, pass TOEFL tests, improve their reading and writing skills, comprehension, and ignite their passion for learning.

...individual goals, hopes, and dreams. These are integral to their academic and pre-college work, since excellent work derives from one's sense of self, motivation, and experience. To this end, I always engage with students as collaborators. I work with them to develop "Sarah's SAT Prep Plan" or "Mike's Writing Workshop", as opposed to just a general course of study meant for anyone. Identifying specific problems and moving toward strong goals, I make sure students achieve...

...me for weeks and I got an A. It was this experience that made me realize the importance of additional help and how important it is to share your knowledge with others. I bring this experience with me with every student I tutor and let them know that tutoring is nothing to be ashamed of. Instead, I tell them it's a great privilege to have someone give them extra time to make them better.

My experience as an ESL instructor has further enriched my approach, allowing me to tailor my sessions to...

...to Japan. During my 3 and half years there as an ESL instructor, I had the opportunity to work with a variety of students: everyone from small children to retires. While it was great helping students to improve their test scores, translate their presentations, and boost their communication skills, I feel my most valuable contribution was cultural exchange. Even if it was just for moment, I'm happy that I encouraged locals to look past the...

Apart from tutoring Spanish, I also tutor English, ESL, web design, Wordpress, online marketing, and basic graphic design (PhotoShop).
