Perfect! She’s great tutor I recommend her

Evan

Perfect! I love working with June. She's patient, kind, and funny. Would highly recommend.

June's response

Evan Is a well-rounded individual. He is educated, loves sports, patient, calm, and enthusiastic about his lessons. He has a unique soul, one that brings a feeling of inner peace to this teacher. His Portuguese is developing with every lesson and he is much further along than the first few classes. Our conversational classes are now dynamic and full of interest, mostly due to Evan’s confidence and drive to learn Portuguese.

Marie

June was a great tutor for my son. She was always on time and really reliable, and knew her stuff! She won't dissapoint!

Dhar

June is an exceptional, passionate and knowledgeable teacher. I would 100% recommend her with 5 stars! She is professional, punctual, organized, and plans her lessons with a lot of detail and care. I feel like the lessons are tailored to my needs instead of the general cookie cutter lessons I have experienced before.

In addition to her being a great teacher she also has an infectious personality. She is a sweet and friendly young lady and you can tell she has a good heart and cares about her students.

Lastly, I think I am in a good position to give the review as I am an educator myself. I have a Bachelor of Education and 10 years of High School International Teaching experience.

June's interview

QUESTION 01 | 05

When and why did you develop an interest in your chosen field?

June — I have always had a passion for languages since a young child, and once I finished high school I took a course to learn English. Through that course, I learned the joy of being able to speak a second language and the opportunities and doors that it can open, and I wanted to share that same joy I felt with others. Thus, since I am a Native Spanish speaker, and since Spanish is the second most widely spoken language in the world, it was a natural fit for me to pursue a career in teaching Spanish so that I could help others feel the same joy I did. Therefore, my official teaching career started 7 years ago, and since then I have never looked back!

QUESTION 02 | 05

What makes you passionate about your subject?

June — The biggest passion for me is helping others and seeing my students achieve their goals. It is truly such a nice feeling to see students who came to me knowing just a few words sending me a video on their travels just a few months later speaking Spanish! It is truly such a gratifying feeling. Also, another amazing thing about tutoring is the connections. With tutoring, I get to meet students from all areas of life, and when you spend a few hours with someone every week you can form good friendships and bonds.

QUESTION 03 | 05

What do you like about tutoring? What makes you a Superprof?

June — I think I am a super prof because I truly love my job and put a lot of my heart and soul into my lessons. For example, even if I have an early morning webcam lesson, I always make sure to wake up at least one hour before class, shower, and look presentable and professional. I take pride in my work, and believe all these details count for the student in the end.

The other thing I love about tutoring is that I have the freedom to design my classes depending on the student's needs, I can set my own schedule, and I can be creative.

In the end, I think I am a super prof because I genuinely have a huge passion for teaching and go to extra mile for my students.

QUESTION 04 | 05

Do you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you? Please explain.

June — The teacher that inspired me was my teacher that taught me English after high school in a community college. Initially I found it a little overwhelming to learn a new language, but then due to my teacher's style of teaching, it made me feel safe in the classes. The lessons were structured well, and she was patient and kind, which created a positive learning environment for me. Because of her teaching, it has opened many doors for me, and I try to create the same feeling of safety for my students in my classes that I teach now.

QUESTION 05 | 05

In your opinion, what are the keys to success?

June — I do not think that there is only one key to success. However from my experience the following points are pivotal in a successful tutor-student relationship:

- Understanding my student's needs and goals

- Understanding my student's personality so I can connect better with them

- Making sure my lessons are customized to my students based on the above two points.

- Planning and preparing well

- Being organized, punctual, and professional

- Being friendly and easy going so the class is fun

- Providing extra resources and practice

I find that by doing the above key points, my students get the best possible experience and generally they have been extremely happy with the courses and their progress.
