By this I mean that I don't teach a definition and require the student to repeat it back to me without understanding what the concept really is. I like to relate concepts to real life, rather than leaving ... Read more

Curriculum for Struggling Readers, Writers, ESL, and TOEFL test prep
I became a tutor during my undergraduate studies. During this time, my children were in elementary, middle, and high schools. Over the years, I frequented their schools as a volunteer and realized that the number of students struggling with reading, writing, and English had continuously increased. Initially I went back to school to facilitate these student populations with English, but I began teaching adult English learners through a local tutoring program and expanded my knowledge of learni...
