Larry
A writer in Mexico
I lived in Mexico City for ten years. In Mexico, I wrote a book in Spanish, an editorial column for a Mexican newspaper, and songs for a Mexican musical publishing company. I have taught Spanish at a French school in Chicago, a Montessori school, and a Spanish college in Chicago. I have taught Spanish to 1st graders and to college students. What I most enjoy is to see that expression on a student's face that shows he or she finally understands a concept or an area within a subject. A l... Read more

I've taught at 3 colleges and over 20 companies and enjoy teaching. It is my calling. I've taught folks of all ages—from 6 to 76.Over the years I have developed my own teaching method for people who want to learn about computer applications and I call it the "C H I P" method: There are five different ways to learn so I teach using the method that works best. Some students must read, some can only learn when they see, then do, and some learn in other ways. When I see "that look" and I KNOW th... Read more

Christina
Fun learning; productive and result guaranteed
I taught myself English back in the early '80s in Beijing, China. When I came to America as a college student in 1988, nobody believed that I was not born and raised in America. This tells you that I know how to study a foreign language on my own. My language skill helped me to finish college and an MBA with honors in America and got me good jobs in corporate America. I used to teach English in China, I have been teaching Chinese at my church, and I tutor Chinese for high school and colle... Read more

Experienced and energetic tutor with a wide range of interests.
I was lucky enough to be inspired at a young age by some amazing teachers. Because of them, I am a lifetime learner, I love learning new things. That is one of the reasons why I love teaching and tutoring so much. It does not matter how often I have taught something, I feel like I learn something new every time. Sometimes it is just a matter of the students I am working with helping me see something in a completely different light. I always strive to motivate my students to want to learn like... Read more
