Chandler L.

Private tutor in Ypsilanti, MI

Education

I'm a Junior Secondary Education Major at Eastern Michigan University. I currently have a 3.75 GPA. My certification will be in English Language, Literature, and Writing. My minor certification will be in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages).

Experience

Last year, I spent a semester working with two Arabic ESL students in EMU's ESL program. I spent time with them working on pronunciation, grammar, and many other aspects of language. I completed my practicum at Central Academy in Ann Arbor where I spent time in a sheltered English ESL classroom. I received a 4 on the AP Lit and Comp exam in High School. I received a 33 on the English portion of the ACT and an 11/12 on the writing portion of it. My composite ACT score was 30. I want to be a tutor because I think that the public school system is particularly unforgiving to students that don't fit the mold that their curricula are designed for. Extracurricular one-on-one help is really important for these students in order for them to succeed in school (and therefore life!) I'm about 80% of the way finished with my degree and am only a few years away from teaching in a real classroom. I'm well-read and knowledgeable about what goes on in a high school English classroom. I'm also confident in helping intermediate to high level ESL learners in their English-speaking endeavors.

Hobbies

Outside of my schoolwork, I play guitar and sing in a band. I've been playing soccer for EMU's Men's Club Soccer team for two years (and played throughout high school). I like reading and talking about books (with the people who can bear to listen) and enjoy writing. I write most of the songs for my band and have done a little bit of creative writing outside of school. I play video games and hang out with friends like any other college student. Aside from that, I'm pretty easy to get along with and I do my best to make each student feel important and confident in their abilities.
