Proven success in teaching TOEFL English, English as a Second Language, and GRE/SAT English. I have taught TOEFL for 15 years--here in DC at small private schools, at KAPLAN, and one-on-one. I've taught foreign language speakers from The Republic of Georgia, China, Finland and all points in between. Some of my students have been from the World Bank or the IMF, some just out of high school, and many who are applying to college and grad school. My students remain life-long friends who return j...

Patient Social Worker willing to go the extra mile to help you succeed

I am a social worker with over 20 years' experience working with children. I have enjoyed tutoring in both the home setting and the after school classroom. Regardless of the subject, I find the most effective way to achieve positive results is to first determine what type of learner a child is, whether visual or auditory. Based on experience I have learned some students learn better when information is presented to them visually and some learn better when things can be explained thoroughly. ... Read more

I very much enjoy teaching and tutoring and have done a great deal of that. As a tutor, my goal is to help the student learn as much as possible and do their best in the course. Although I know the subject material, the objective is not to hear myself talk, but to communicate the topic to the student. As such, there is no bad (or “dumbâ€) question. The student is welcome to ask whatever he/she wants. I have tutored students for several years in high school economics, undergraduate intro... Read more

Learning can be a challenging thing. Everybody has their way of learning and understanding things. Some are more analytical and practical while others are more mechanical. We all have our way of understanding things. Unfortunately we don’t always have someone around to show us how to do things in a way we understand. Teaching is also challenging. There is a big difference between knowing something and showing others how to do something. To be a great teacher or tutor, you need good communica... Read more
