Hello. I have been fluent in Spanish since long before I completed my Bachelor's Degree in Spanish (which was 2004). When I finished my Spanish degree, I went on to receive a Graduate Certificate in T... eaching English as a Second Language (ESL). I have helped many young people, as a Tutor and as a Substitute Teacher, to learn better English. As an added bonus, I can say hello or goodbye in about 20 languages, five of which I know the basics of how to speak and read (including French and German). I specialize in helping students ENJOY learning.read more

I live in Tennessee. I first moved here in 1981 from the Marshall Islands, Micronesia. More recently, I moved here from Los Angeles, California. I like to travel. But I like being near my family even ... more, so I live in Tennessee. My hobbies are Planetary Science, reading, writing (I am working on a book), and meeting people from all over the world. My tutoring philosophy is this- everyone learns better when they're having fun. I like to use the Internet for lessons, and I have been teaching/tutoring English subjects (like ESL, ELA, Literature, Reading, Writing, and Phonics) for many years. I used to have a hard time learning, when I was a child. Then I got glasses, and I learned VERY easily from that point forward. But I still remember what it was like to have a very hard time learning, so I can empathize with students who are struggling. We'll start each lesson with a smile, end each lesson with a smile, and have fun learning!read more
