Bio

I majored in Chinese and Spanish in college. I can teach the proper use of grammar, spelling, and reading to help students in their classes. I also teach proper pronunciation of the the Spanish language. My accent is not the typical American accent when speaking a foreign language, and I've been told that I speak perfectly when conversing with native speakers.

I majored in Chinese and Spanish in college. I can teach the proper use of grammar, spelling, and reading to help students in their classes. I also teach proper pronunciation of the the Spanish language. My accent is not the typical American accent when speaking a foreign language, and I've been told that I speak perfectly when conversing with native speakers.

In Chinese, I teach the correct use of the tones and proper pronunciation for each word. We work on reading characters in various ways, and putting single characters into compound words, and how to put all the pieces together to start speaking correctly.

I am a literature fan and have a grasp of the English language that is necessary to learn foreign languages so well. I can help with reading, literature, proofreading, essay composition, and grammar. I also teach history.

I have experience with students raging from elementary school, through college, and adults. I have a passion for the things that I teach that I hope to pass on to those who are working with me.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Organized and patient tutor.

Monica is amazing! I had a confusing professor for Theology: Vatican II and because of Monica I understood the material better. I even ended up with a solid A in the course. She is very accommodating and knowledgeable on the best way to teach individuals with their specific needs. I HIGHLY recommend Monica as a tutor.

extremely helpful Spanish tutor!

Monica tutored my son last quarter in college Spanish. She helped him go from (previously) failing this class to achieving an A for the quarter. Monica was extremely beneficial in helping my son to understand the grammar and fundamental concepts of the Spanish language. She also helped him to improve his conversational skills and pronunciation. Monica provided valuable feedback, kindness, patient encouragement and proactive support to my son, she will always be our first choice for language tutoring.

Great Spanish Tutor!

I have had Monica for about 4 months helping me prepare for a college Spanish class. She is very kind and patient and really great to work with. The thing I like the best about Monica is that she is really good at making the student feel really comfortable from day one. She is also really patient so when I am not getting something I don't get flustered because of her patience. Monica is very conversational and makes tutoring an enjoyable experience. I have learned a lot from Monica and am ready for college Spanish. Thank you, Monica. If I had to grade Monica I would give her an A++. She is a real value as a tutor. It was money well spent getting tutored by Monica.

Excellent, knowledgeable and patient!

Monica has been tutoring our freshman in Spanish 1-2 for the past few weeks. I have been impressed with her approach and strategy in assisting our child learn a new language. Our child has learned more with Monica than with the actual instructor of the class. I would highly recommend her to anyone who has a child struggling to grasp a new language. - Impressed Parents!!!!

Great tutor for Spanish!

Monica can quickly pick up an assignment and jump in, helping where needed, but not doing it for you. She is positive and encouraging when tough homework can get frustrating.

Monica is a tutor who cares!

Monica has been an excellent tutor for my son who was in Spanish II at PLVSHS. Normally an A student, my son was struggling due to what I will describe as an uncaring/defensive teacher. Monica has been a Godsend, she is passionate about foreign language and making sure that her students understand both the grammar and vocabulary. She was able to work with the class online book/material my son was provided, while adding her own instruction such as helping him look for key words to know which form of grammar was needed. She is invested in the students and she celebrated alongside him with each good grade. She went above and beyond by meeting with his teacher and I, so that we could try and understand the issues he was having on the tests. We met with Monica approximately once per week from October to May, and she was able to bring his grade up from a D- to a B- by the end of the year.

We appreciate very much her patience and the knowledge she has of the language. She gave detailed feedback to us on our son's progress.
