Experience
I recently completed a four-month study abroad course in Costa Rica, where I learned more about Spanish and Latin American cultures. While I was perfecting my own Spanish skills, I also worked as a tutor and helped my peers gain a better understanding of the language. As someone who's taken a keen interest in Spanish, I also helped translate a handbook from English to Spanish, as well as translate quarterly newsletters to Spanish. For me, there's no greater reward than having the opportunity to help people improve their lives, which is why I've spent a large portion of my adult life volunteering with children. In this capacity, I worked as a tutor and helped young students gain a better understanding of their classroom material. Along with tutoring Spanish and English, I also taught basic life skills that can be helpful outside of the classroom. In my opinion, part of what makes a good teacher is having good classroom management. For this reason, I like to teach in a way that's fun and engaging, but where students also benefit from a structured learning program that promotes patience and discipline. When I'm not practicing my Spanish or teaching, I like cooking, reading, and crocheting.
