"My name is Amy and I am an English and Spanish tutor. I graduated from CSU Stanislaus in 2008 with a B.A. in Liberal Studies and a concentration in Spanish. During my education, I studied abroad in Alicante, Spain where I passed the D.E.L.E. exam. I was awarded the advanced language certificate by the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science. While at CSU Stanislaus, I worked as an ESL tutor and helped students with writing issues, such as subject/verb agreement and syntax. I have also tutored K-6 children in math and reading.

I am a recent graduate of Concordia University where I received a Curriculum and Instruction graduate degree. As such, I am very familiar with writing academic papers. I pride myself in my writing abilities and can offer very thorough writing critiques and tutoring services. I am proficient in APA formatting.

In addition to specific subject tutoring, I also strive to help my students become better learners. I want them to recognize the importance of being precise and thorough in their work. These traits will help them in all of their academic endeavors.

In my professional experience I worked at a private high school where I taught Spanish II-IV Advanced Placement. During that same time I also taught after-school beginning Spanish classes to elementary school children. I am very skilled at adapting my curriculum to different age groups and individual learning styles.

I am currently working in the Stanford Graduate School of Education as an Academic Program Professional for the California World Language Project.

At this time, I am available for the following:

Proofreading Academic Papers

Spanish Language Tutoring

Elementary Reading

I recently have worked with young readers and I use a fantastic and engaging reading curriculum. Please contact me for more details." less...
