Experience
I attended the University of Oregon, where I received a B.A. in Psychology. While pursuing my undergraduate degree, I tutored English to international students as part of the university's English program. During this time, I helped students strengthen their conversational English, improve their grammar, and learn strategies to improve their essay writing skills.After I graduated from the University, I moved to South Korea to work as an English teacher. I taught English to people of all walks of life, ranging from elementary students to business executives working for large, multinational corporations. In addition to teaching in the classroom, I worked for four years at one of South Korea's largest educational companies, where I developed curriculum, created assessment tests, and helped compile textbooks and teacher's materials.While I am experienced in tutoring a wide range of subjects related to English, science, and mathematics, my favorite subjects to teach are reading and grammar. I love teaching these two subjects because they allow me to be creative in my approach, and I enjoy finding exciting and unique ways to deliver the lesson. As a teacher, I believe it is necessary to establish a rapport with the student to build trust and respect. One can do this by being understanding and honest with his or her students.When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading and watching movies. I also like working with arts and crafts, visiting museums, and cooking new recipes.
