Career Experience

I began teaching ESL in 1987 and got my MA in applied linguistics. The next thiry years of teaching brought me to France, Spain, Taiwan, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, Japan, and Ecuador. During that time, I tried on different lives, and that got me thinking. In 2007, I returned to the US to complete an MFA in creative writing and have been teaching composition, critical thinking, creative writing, and literature ever since, most recently in Dubai.

I Love Tutoring Because

unlike teaching a group of students, tutoring allows me to focus on a single student's particular needs. It's more personal and engaging for both of us. I think we're all happiest when learning something--I know I am--and sharing that positive experience with students is why I became a teacher.

Thanks for taking the time to review my survey. Unfortunately, I am not able to see the margins or any suggestions that have been made. Is there anyway you could write it in a different way? I really would like to see your ideas for improvement. Thanks

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. My English teacher Grandmother would be ashamed of my grammatical errors. I am wondering how the kids of today will ever learn to form a full sentence with all of the acronyms used.
