Teacher - Tutoring
English Language Instruction, Teaching, Education
Worked for 2 years tutoring students and adults in English.
Interests: I’m a teacher, but I’m also a language student, currently studying Korean. I’ve also studied Spanish, French and Latin. I think that gives me insight into what students are going through trying to learn a new language, and it's helped me to be sensitive to their needs. I know for myself I learn best when I’m feeling relaxed and confident. And that happens when I’m working with an experienced teacher who can quickly assess my abilities and speak with me at a level I can understand. It takes time to develop the teaching skills to quickly assess a student’s needs and work with them at their own level. And over the course of teaching 2000 online English classes these are skills I’ve worked hard to develop. I always strive to be the teacher I would want to have.
