Journalism Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Albuquerque, NM

I have worked as an English tutor at Central New Mexico Community College for the past seven years. During this time, I have tutored students from the remedial English level up to college level courses. Many students have thanked me for my instruction and said that "You helped me a lot." I truly enjoy assisting students to master the principles and concepts needed to excel in English. I vary my style from student to student because I understand each student is unique and may require a slightly different approach.

As a basic literacy tutor and tutor trainer for over 20 years, I have a passion for helping people learn to read and write well. My background as a technical writer has given me a good grasp of grammar and writing structure. I have worked with a variety of people, ranging from children in the first grade to PhD subject matter experts. Each person requires a unique approach and a recognition of their individuality. Teaching should be interactive; learners need a chance to do activities so they can practice and they need to demonstrate what they have learned.

Self professed perfectionist and perpetual learner. Several leadership positions involving teaching children and managing groups. In college I focused on writing and editing with a creative outlet involving poetry and some acting. I am now enrolled as a Biology major, finding that my study skills I developed as a writing student are very helpful in a field that is fundamentally different. I feel inspired to help others and want to share my abilities in a positive and fulfilling way for all parties involved. In order to master any thing, one must learn, one must do, and one must teach.

I believe that students learn best in an environment that promotes encouragement and relational interaction with their tutors. While I believe in creating a stress free, fun environment, I believe in helping students set their own rigorous goals. I am skilled at helping students create plans that help them achieve the goals they have in their education. My style could be described as a combination of structured organization and stress free fun. I have been teaching piano and bass guitar to students for almost 10 years. I am a 4.0 student who has mastered the ability to study efficiently. In 2010, I was awarded a teaching assistantship at the University of New Mexico where I was asked to teach 2 undergraduate classes in communication. However, I rejected this position as I accepted a Master's program at a different University, but underwent the training required for TA's at UNM.

Patient and nurturing. I understand how it feels to be a slow learner. I was an English major and worked at the University of New Mexico for seven years. In that time, I was a mentor/tutor for the College Enrichment Program, editor for the Blue Mesa Review, teacher's assistant for a children's literature course, and participated in several creative writing workshops. I have a lot of experience working in an educational environment.

I majored in Journalism, graduating summa cum laude, and my focus was in writing, studying many different styles. I have years of experience in varying forms of educations, but my most relevant is the two years (2012-2014) I lived in South Korea, teaching elementary and middle school students in English as a foreign language at a private academy. During that time period, I also tutored two adults in conversation, vocabulary, and diction. This experience led me to the decision to pursue a Masters in teaching, and until I complete that goal, I am going to keep my skills fresh with tutoring. I prefer a very conversational approach with my students. The style encourages mutual respect and allows me to observe more closely how the student learns. In addition, I feel learning is absorbed better when the information is couched in a story, and I believe conversation is a style of storytelling.

I have two technical-college degrees, I worked my way through both of them being a math tutor, and have used math and science in some way in every job I've ever held. As for my "teaching style", as everyone knows, it helps enormously just to have another person to work with, ask questions of, and generally talk things through. And since Im not a professional teacher, Im mostly a working tech--maybe I can help you see the connections between the abstract science & math the way its taught in school, and how that knowledge actually applies in the workplace (and in life.) On-the-job math is almost always done using Microsoft Excel, so I can show you how to do almost anything on a spreadsheet. Ive been a TV broadcast engineer, and taught video production in a public high school. Ive been an avionics technician, a solar PV installer & designer, and a thermal analyst for solar buildings.

I have worked as an elementary school teacher for 7 years. I have been fortunate enough to teach grades 1, 2, 3, and 4. In my experience I have found that children build confidence through small successes. My philosophy is to set maintainable goals allowing students to meet them frequently building confidence and motivation. I am structured yet kind. Kids need to feel a connection to their teacher in order to give 100%. I work a great deal on building community in my classroom and allowing kids to appreciate the diversity among themselves. Not all kids are going to excel in all areas. They need to value what they are really good at and share that with their peers. This also creates miniature "experts" which makes all kids feel good. Once a child feels successful; in one area it encourages them to tackle something they are less comfortable with.

Hello! I have been teaching writing of various kinds for over six years. I have taught community college, university, and private college courses during those six years. I am also a published professional writer with many articles in local, national, and online publications. I have also served as a speech writer, curriculum development consultant, and writing consultant for various clients. I love writing, but I am also passionate about literature, history, and the social sciences. I love teaching! Most of my teaching experience has been at the college level, however I enjoy working one-on-one with high school and middle school aged students as well. My goal is to meet you where you are, discover the obstacles that are standing in your way of understanding, and help you to move past those obstacles to achieve your highest level of success.

Students need to be equipped with the research skills and ability to fetter out information from a number of different sources. The information must be timely, accurate, credible, relevant, etc. The days of going to a library and pulling volumes of texts to research substantive information has changed. Now, most students understand what a Boolean search is. However, many don’t know much beyond the internet. This is both an imperative skill as a successful student, and as a potential graduate seeking employment. During the years I have been an instructor and tutor, I have contributed to my students’ confidence and motivation through my interactive and engaging lessons on becoming a successful student. I conduct my lessons with high energy, engaging students to participate and contribute to the discussion. I balance excellent student interaction with effective classroom management. I fe

I am a patient, student-centered facilitator of critical thinking and writing skills. With specific training in writing pedagogy, I see the best results in small groups or with individuals when the process of writing can be explored through creative catalysts designed around the specific interests and strengths of each student. Once students understand that they can learn the skills needed to express their ideas through the process of writing (the discovery of ideas through drafting, focusing, revision, and editing), I usually see tremendous improvement in their writing assignments. As the first in my family to earn a university degree, I have a strong connection with students of all ages who need educational support. I have more than 20 years of experience teaching English and writing to a diverse range of learners from middle school and high school to PhD research students. While work

My style of teaching, especially with tutoring, is to find out what kind of learner my student is: tacit, oral, or verbal. Then the lesson style can be geared to that, while leading the student to become more aware of the other abilities and options. Also, it is imperative that students understand why they are learning what is being presented to them. Cause and effect leads to greater awareness and more objective, analytical, and critical thinking. Creating a reason and success in learning, making it practical and fun can lead any child to want to continue to grow in any area of interest, and tie that back to other skills which my not be so appealing at this point in their life. I have taught and been certified in four states. Grades 7-9 is the level I prefer, though I have taught at the Junior College level also. History is my major, and having spent much of my youth on
