Over the past fourteen years as an educator, I have specialized in teaching subjects that are heavy on vocabulary skills: English and History. One of my areas of focus has always been increasing English vocabulary, grammar, and reading comprehension across various educational levels, particularly aiming to enhance students' test-taking skills and overall language proficiency. My teaching approach is rooted in a combination of rigorous academic research and engaging interactive learning experiences. I have designed and led numerous courses aimed at expanding students' vocabularies, understanding of word origins, and abilities to deduce meanings from context, crucial for excelling in standardized tests like the SAT and ACT. In addition to my formal education, I continually update my teaching practices to incorporate the latest educational technologies and methodologies, ensuring that each class is both dynamic and effective. My personal enthusiasm for reading and language arts enriches the classroom experience, providing students with a passionate and knowledgeable guide as they explore the depths of the English language. This blend of professional expertise, ongoing professional development, and a personal love for literature creates a comprehensive and stimulating learning environment for all students in this course.Reseñas
