I have taught English and English as a Second Language in international schools for over twenty years. I have taught in Canada, New England, Mexico, Oman, Egypt and China. In two of those schools I was head of ESL K-12.
I have always enjoyed teaching, and particularly enjoy tutoring individuals or teaching small classes. In both of these scenarios you can see the students make real progress. Seeing students succeed is the most rewarding thing about teaching.
I have a Masters in Teaching English as a Second Language and was previously certified in ESL (K-12) and English (7-12) in Vermont. Since my retirement from full-time teaching I have stayed active by tutoring and volunteer teaching.
I firmly believe that tutoring is a unique relationship between the teacher and student. The first meeting is the most important. This is where we discuss the student's expectations and the ability of the teacher to help with those expectations. If it's a good fit, we move on from there.
