Ruth Verona

Greetings from TLC of Fort Worth!

Hello everyone. Ruth here. First I would like to mention, I love my job as an English teacher to students from different parts of the world (speakers of other languages). For many years, I used to work for International Companies (e.g. Honda Corporation) where part of my job was to train other employees including those from other countries. This is when I realized that I would love to focus on just teaching. So, I went back to school for my MA in Ed with focus on TESOL (adult). I believe this is where I found myself. Subjectively, I would like to believe that this is where God put me to find happiness with the job I do. I am grateful everyday to have found myself, to find happiness with what I do. It was not easy to find a job teaching as my previous experiences differ from teaching languages. I am grateful for The Language Company ( Inez - former director, DFW TLC), to have given me the opportunity for the position.

 

Before TLC, I spent 2 years volunteering to teach English in Texas and abroad. I found that I have so much empathy for language learners. As a person who speaks different languages, fluent in 3, intermediate in 2, 3 of which I had to go to school to learn before immersion in the country of the language, I have learned to put myself in the position of my students. This has taught me to be more patient, to be more understanding, and to find strategies that could better help the learner with more difficulty than others. I found that learning languages is not just for self development, rather it is a way to expand our understanding for those who are learning other languages as well. Once again, I am forever grateful to have this experience and to be able to help other people from all over the world learn a language, just as I was helped by those who had taught me.
