Experience
I obtained degrees in both Law and Chinese, and minored in politics as well. Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I was involved with tutoring in middle school, and also tutored pupils in third grade Hebrew. I have also taught Spanish at an elementary school while I was in college, and afterwards I taught the subject of English to high school students while abroad in China. I also tutored students one on one that were in middle and high school. When I came home I worked as an SAT teacher and also as a student instructor in Buddhism. I love to teach, and enjoy seeing students who are in tune with me and love to learn. In particular, I really like to teach reading, writing, and English in general. I love to read, and also like to be able to break down a story and explain it to pupils. While I am understanding that each student will learn or pick up on material differently and also work at different paces, I also feel as though they should try their best and strive for their goals. When I'm not working I like to read, hit the slopes, take in a play or musical, and rent a foreign movie or two.
