My main goal is to help my students become more confident in their own abilities to learn material, improve skills, and express their ideas. I will not give anyone all the answers, and I will not do all the work for anyone, but I will help anyone to achieve his or her goals by providing the tools for success. I will never simply say that something is incorrect without explaining why. I try to center my students' interests in fun activities to make learning more exciting. If I can turn something into a game, I will!
I graduated with honors from the University of Oklahoma in 2016 with a bachelor's degree in English Literary and Cultural Studies and a minor in Spanish. I have taught ESL conversation classes for almost three years now, and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (also at OU). I have helped many people with over 100 e ... read more

Affordable English and Writing Tutor

My name is Leigha, and I am a Senior English Literature and Cultural Studies student at the University of Oklahoma. I'm helpful, humorous, and happy! Literature, reading and writing, and communication are my forte. With over 4 years of studying English Literature and Cultural studies, I aim to help students become more comfortable with not only expressing themselves, but helping them understand literature and grammar. Luckily, my interests range from world literature to Shakespeare to contemporary literature and poetry. Being a writer myself, I try to focus on creating pieces of writing that are not only enjoyable and express who I am as a writer, but that are clear and grammatically-correct. I have over 4 years in helping junior high and high school students learn public speaking and debate, with over 7 years of my own competitive public speaking experience as well. Because of t ... read more

I graduated with an ACT score of 34, which awarded me the State Regents' Scholarship. I was also a National Merit Qualifier with a PSAT score of 204 in 2013.

Study Skills is one of my top subjects! Nobody likes to study, but there are several different ways to develop study skills. I lacked in study skills at a young age and learned to develop them and I can give aid to develop others.

I like to help students discover the solutions and answers on their own. I am here to help guide them in the right direction not to provide the answer.
I spent the last several years preparing to become a teacher and have enjoyed every bit of it. I have spent time in the classroom, varying from 4th grade and up not only in math classes, which I will be teaching, but others as well. Although it was not necessary to get a Minor in Education to become a teacher, I decided that it would be in my best interest to gain as much knowledge on different teaching styles and approaches to developing my own classroom environment. All students have the ability to learn it just comes down to understanding the best way to help a student achieve at the highest level possible.

Teaching has always been something that I've greatly enjoyed. Whether it was helping a special needs student read, or an undergraduate history student finish a term paper, I appreciate the opportunity to help others achieve academic success. When working with students, I exercise a great deal of patience. I am also a firm believer in allowing students to achieve their potential through hard work. I find the best way to do this is by asking questions that lead the student to the answer. The proverbial "light bulb" that the student reaches when he realizes that he does indeed know the answer is very rewarding for both the teacher and the student. My goal is not only to teach, but help students realize their potential to learn.
I began tutoring in high school. I worked at a local day care where I tutored a special needs child. The experience was very rewarding and inspired me to c ... read more

I have formal tutoring experience with college students. I have informal tutoring experience with elementary, junior high and high school students through my work at youth shelters. My strength lies in breaking down information to the basics and helping students learn the answers on their own.

My areas of expertise are statistics, psychology, algebra, trigonometry, editing research papers and essays, and writing in MLA/APA/ASA format. In addition, I made a 35 on the ACT and 1380 on the SAT, so I am more than capable of tutoring in ACT/SAT prep. I have made A's in English Composition I & II, English Literature, and Calculus I & II.

I believe all students can learn. I strive to accomplish this by basing my teaching style upon the learning style of my students. In my classroom I implement discovery and inquiry as an approach to learning. Currently as a reading specialist I focus on individualization because at the secondary level each student has unique needs. In addition, I work to incorporate reading across the curriculum to help my students develop the skills needed to read and comprehend the textbooks in all the disciplines.
As a graduate of the University of Oklahoma, I began my teaching career in mathematics at the junior high school level. I taught Algebra I to eighth graders. While teaching, I returned to school and received my M.Ed as a Reading Specialist. After working in that area for a few years, I became an inner city high school principal. I remained in that capacity for approximately twenty years ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I generally try to remain as friendly as possible with the tutee so that he/she can relax and learn in a comfortable environment. I work on a first-name basis and try to make sure that the student is LEARNING, rather than merely finishing his/her homework. I teach using a Platonic method, asking prodding questions and getting the tutee to figure out the material him/herself. Occasionally, I have to teach in a more stern and disciplined manner b/c the student is distracted or doesn't feel like doing the work. In these cases, I remain disciplined to emphasize how important learning the material is but do not speak or act harshly.
While studying at the University of Oklahoma, I became interested in tutoring and helping those less fortunate. I began tutoring at a program called Tuesday Tutors which provides free-of-charge tutoring to all students Junior High level and above (altho ... read more

Teaching is a means to find a student's misconceptions and correct them. I try to do this by engaging the students in conversation, asking them leading questions, or watching them work. I try to build classroom bonds, making communication easier. Once the students feel comfortable, it is easier to get them to talk and share their actual thoughts and ideas (which might be brilliant or flawed).
After graduating with a 4.0 from the University of Oklahoma, I began my graduate work in mathematics. As a G.A., I had the experience of teaching and tutoring at the college level. During the past two years, I have taught 10 sections of miscellaneous classes, covering 5 different courses. Over the course of the past two years, I've easily had over a hundred hours of tutoring time. In addition to my two math degrees and minor in religious studies, I also have a good background in music t ... read more

Even as a kid, I loved to teach and to learn. And one of the most important things that I've learned is that teaching isn't about asking someone to remember facts; instead, it is about giving them tools to help them think so that those facts mean something. My specialties are journalism, social studies, English, computers, and humanities at both the middle school and the high school level and my work is seasoned with insights from traveling the world as a teacher. From Korea to Amsterdam, from Oklahoma to Italy, all students want to learn and I help them discover how they can learn best.
I once was called an “eternal pupil” by a fellow teacher; it is easy to see why. After receiving my BS in Business Education I immediately returned to college to earn my MS in Business Education. Since receiving my masters I have completed 127 additional college hours which certified me to teach j ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always loved to teach, and loved to travel and meet new people. This led to traveling for a summer during college to Mexico City, living with a Spanish-speaking family. I also spent twelve weeks in West Africa teaching ESL and speaking French before my senior year at OBU. After graduation, I lived in Northern California (where I had also spent a summer during college), teaching ESL to adult Mexican immigrants, tutoring middle-school Korean students, and spending one summer in Southeast Asia while earning a Masters and TESL certificate. I now confidently teach ESL writing and grammar at a community college, as well as tutor children in ESL for a local public school. I also home school an advanced first grader.
I am a highly-motivated, high-energy, personable teacher with multiple international teaching experiences. I possess talent for making the classroom fun and entertainin ... read more
