About Me

I was a graduate student at SJSU. I am entering the credential program in the spring. I want to teach English in highschool. My GPA for graduate school is 3.63. I have taken multiple English classes, which will help me tutor you in anything English related.

Experience

I taught English 1A at SJSU.for a year and a half I taught 23 students per semester. I wrote the syllabus, created the assignments, and graded the assignments. The assignments were a narrative essay, a gender language essay, and a stasis theory trial. I also was a graduate assistant for one year. I had to grade the assignments and the exams. Moreover, I had to meet with students to help them excel in the classroom.

Approach

I struggled in highschool. My approach is a few things. First, I find out what the student is passionate about and try to connect that to the assignment or a way to understand the assignment. I also try different methods, audio, visual, lecture, and group to get the student to understand the assignment. Furthermore, I have the student write multiple drafts. The more they write the better the writing will become. Last, I make sure the student knows that I care about their learning experience
