Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
For English/Reading specifically, I will definitely be patient and start with the basics & collect from what they already know. Then advance to what they don't know, and do that at whatever speed they are most comfortable.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have taken English as a subject for 16 years, and I've always had high grades. My GPA as of right now remains a 4.0. I am very experienced in the English language & helping others with what they don't know/understand.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I've never worked in this field of work (tutoring) but I would prefer 15/per hour if not more
How did you get started teaching?
I am new to tutoring! But I have experience in helping family & friends learn English (as native Spanish or French speakers)
What types of students have you worked with?
Adults, such as family, learning the English language - and of course friends who had little knowledge. Also, grammar, and younger kids who needed assistance reading.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
A friend I recently tutored read a chapter book without needing any clarification! She has also mastered her English grammar and is now withstanding an excellent GPA.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Work with someone who goes at the pace you feel OK at! Never be afraid to ask questions, we are here to help you and push you to do your best. English is a difficult language to learn, but you can do anything - with determination.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
They should think through what types of answers they would like from the teacher. Are they asking for the teacher to lead them to the answer? Clarification on directions or certain steps to take? Or do they need a review of the topic? Have they put in the effort?
