Language Lessons in Peoria, AZ. It's your time.

I am a licensed Spanish teacher for grades 7-12. I learned Spanish, my second language, by living with a Spanish family in Valencia, Spain, and by studying at the University of Valencia for two semesters. I am in my 9th year of teaching Junior High/High School Spanish, and I also have been tutoring Spanish one-on-one as well as group lessons for 7 years.

Thanks to the internet, I invite the world into our lessons! I use many online resources to support all facets of the learning process, i.e., reading, listening, writing, speaking (the highest rung for the skill ladder). This approach enables my students to practice/grow between lessons, AND it exposes them to the many different sounds of Spanish (depending on which of the 21 Spanish-speaking countries the speaker is from). When I am supporting Spanish students, these websites are particularly helpful with more difficult grammar tasks. When the student I am tutoring uses such websites during our lessons, s/he is provided with ...

I have received training in the Spalding curriculum, as well as the Action Reading curriculum. I have tutored students in reading and spelling from grades 1 through 6 and I have taught English as a Second Language and am SEI certified. I strongly believe in teaching reading phonetically and systematically.

I teach all forms of literacy including listening, speaking, writing, and reading English. I teach grammar, phonics, word recognition and comprehension, vocabulary, spelling, and effective, expressive, and creative writing skills. I have been an avid reader and writer ever since my elementary school days. At college, I received a perfect score on my departmental English exam. I have three education degrees: A double bachelor's in elementary education and music, and a Master's Degree in Reading and Curriculum. I am presently a Mesa Laubach Literacy Council Board Member and Tutor. I love to help students become more proficient in the English language.

I'm a fully TEFL certified English Teacher and have a Bachelors Degree, A-Levels in English Literature. Over the years, I've naturally been drawn towards helping non-native English speakers with learning English. I love traveling and I have lived in Germany, Asia and Spain. I teach students from beginner to advanced. I particularly enjoy working on students pronunciation. I teach the Standard British RP accent.

Me as a teacher
I aim to help students with a wide range of language learning skills. I help you gain confidence by using games, exercises and practicing conversation. I can help you with grammar, vocabulary, and correct pronunciation. I aim to make language learning as fun and relaxed as possible so you can really enjoy yourself.

My Lessons & Teaching Style
Lessons with me are fun and relaxed, there is no need to be nervous about making mistakes. Your level and motivations are very important to me so I will tailor our lesson with that in mind. I’m a relaxed teacher ...

am an American Sign Language teacher at a private school in Pennsylvania. I began this job after moving up north from Tampa, FL where I taught ASL at the University of Tampa! I grew up signing and have grown my passion into my career! I made history by being the first person to perform the National Anthem in American Sign Language for the Philadelphia Flyers and have performed for the Tampa Bay Rays and Reading Phillies as well. I have made it my life goal to teach as many people ASL as I can to add to the Deaf Community and spread awareness about deafness and Deaf Culture.

I teach ASL levels 1-5 and can teach as fast or slow as necessary! I can't wait to get to know you and show you my passion for this wonderful language and culture!

I have a teaching experience of ESL of more than 24 years in Cuba. I have taught in colleges, for students with different academic interests, and for graduates who wanted to improve their proficiency in this language. I have also trained teachers of ESL at the language school where I worked.

In my teaching I use a communicative approach with meaningful exchanges but with a solid foundation of the formal aspects of the language too, so that students can move forward safely. I pay attention to individual differences so that each student can progress at his/her own pace with ease.

At intermediate and advanced levels I always favor the use of meaningful discussions and debate about updated issues, so that students learn how to express their opinions and ideas properly in different contexts.

I believe in creating a friendly atmosphere with meaningful human exchanges throughout my lessons.
