I became a teacher after graduating with a Bachelor's in Elementary /Bilingual Education and a Minor in Spanish. I have taught in two public school districts in my 12 years of experience. My favorite subject to teach is reading. It is the foundation of a child's entire educational career. I find great satisfaction when I can help a struggling student improve and feel encouraged and positive about learning. Using my bilingual skills, I have been able to teach children to speak, read and write in both English and Spanish. I have recently been teaching basic Spanish conversation and also helping speakers of other languages learn English. I enjoy working with school-aged children, but I am open to assisting older students and/or adults with English or Spanish.
My resume
I'm a certified elementary/ bilingual teacher with 12 years classroom experience and have been tutoring since I attended college. I am now dedicating my time to only tutoring and therefore have a relatively flexible schedule. I have experience tutoring/ teaching English, ESL, Reading & Writing and also Spanish conversation, reading & writing. I love to work one on one with students because I know everyone has his or her own style of learning and I, as the teacher/tutor can focus on how to best help or teach each student.
