Experience
If you're looking for a tutor with a diverse background in language, I can help you. My teaching experience includes English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese. I have taught students at different levels - from beginner to advanced - in English and Chinese. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology and Chinese from Dartmouth College, from which I graduated cum laude. My minor was in International Studies. I also have a Master's degree from Fudan University in Shanghai, China. In college, I worked as an instructor of Spanish and Chinese and as a research assistant. Additionally, I served as a team leader for study abroad, college orientation, and student life programs. I love language, and I find satisfaction in helping others learn correct pronunciation and how to write formally. Through my own language abilities, academic expertise, and teaching experience, I am able to teach my students language effectively. My favorite part of teaching is seeing my students grasp a concept and realize their success. In addition to languages and ESL/ELL, I tutor reading, writing, phonics, English grammar and syntax, and public speaking. I live in Washington, DC, and when I'm not working, I enjoy spoken word poetry and yoga.
