My comments on tutoring Literature : I've studied countless volumes of literature. Mostly Western. Hemingway, Thoreau, Bukowski, McCarthy, etc...

I have been a professional print/broadcast journalist for roughly 15 years. I am a perpetual student and am currently finishing my bachelors in communications online at the University of Tampa and have been accepted in their Master of Fine Arts program for Film Studies. An MFA is a terminal degree, so I will be qualified to teach on a collegiate level upon graduation. As reality often transcends policy, I currently take interns from a local SUNY institution and mentor young broadcasters, so as technology evolves, I will as well. My main body of work is primarily broadcast, but I regularly produce print articles for both online and print publications. From developing concepts for solid stories to completed final products, I am adept at producing both broadcast and print work.

I am currently pursuing a degree in secondary education with a specialization in American History. I have a passion for the subject and for helping students succeed. I just completed my practicum last fall and was active in a 10th grade World History class for about 10 hours a week. During the summer of 2011 I was employed at girl scout camp in Lake George where I planned and taught History lessons for our weekly programs. I also have worked for the Walt Disney Company, in the Magic Kingdom. While I was there, I was able to do American History trivia and tours for the Liberty Square area.
I really enjoy engaging the student in discussion of the topic and helping them experience the events in History rather than just remembering dates and locations.

As a recent graduate of the Rutgers-Newark University Honors College, I hold a B.A. in Biology and plan to continue my education in the future. As a member of the Honors College I was exposed to the most rigorous English Literature and History courses, which enabled me to hone my writing skills. In addition, I have extensive experience in the Biological Sciences. While earning my degree in Biology I held a position as a peer tutor for undergraduate freshmen taking General Biology. I also have a full year of one-on-one and group tutoring experience with preparatory school students, who had learned English as a second language, in various subjects including Biology, English, and History.
I recognize the importance of a dynamic teaching style- one that adjusts depending on both the subject matter and the student. I am very experienced with addressing procrastination and anxiety. ... read more

I truly believe in lifelong learning. I take every opportunity to increase my own professional development. As a teacher I like to adapt my teaching style to students individualized abilities. I like to share my experiences with students. Students have a better understanding when you share real world experiences with them.
I am dedicated to teaching and enhancing students' ability to learn. I have two masters degrees, MSed in education K-12 reading and MST in Elementary Education. This has allowed me to possess a diversity of teaching backgrounds including a research based computer program called read 180 which consists of small group instruction.

I am a firm believer of the concept "know your audience", as each child may not learn in the same linear fashion. Children need to learn whether via spoken (lectures, slides,) or written word (powerpoint, research journals, quizzes,). I like to believe that the child does have will to learn and needs to find that niche of comfort in order to do so, whether informal group setting or sound strategic goal setting structure.
I have a BS in Speech Communication and MA in Public Administration, while currently pursuing an MBA. I have a very high comfort level in speaking/illustrating to others. My understanding of concepts range from Interpersonal and Organizational Communication/Rhetoric/ Leadership/ Art History and Psycholgy issues like self-esteem. I have a wide array of skill sets for report writing and research papers

Before I was able to tutor, I taught 7 year old girls cheerleading. When I began to tutor, I enjoyed being one on one with the child. I am very patient, punctual and considerate. I know children that need extra help need extra time. I find it personally rewarding to supplament a child's education. I also believe it is easier for a child to ask questions when they are one on one with an educator.
Beginning in high school I found myself driven to help children in need. Through my participation in Mercy Action, I raised money for mentally delayed children, and set up numerous barbeques for them. Later, I began tutoring a young brazilian boy in the 5th grade. He needed help with all of his studies, especially math and english. As a political science major, I have gained experienced in essay writing, grammatical skills and research methods.

Since receiving a Bachelor's in English and Writing, I have developed many diverse skills in addition to those I learned in school. While working as an editor for a publishing company, I was able to hone my ability to write and communicate clearly through the written word. I have also studied music and art from a young age including such subject areas as piano, voice, flute, cello, ceramics, and photography. I have also worked in many environments that required knowledge and use of math skills. I also earned a Master's in education and have worked with children who have disabilities in a recreational environment. In addition to the above credentials, I am recently certified as a fitness trainer.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated from a private university with a BA in Sociology and a double-minor in Forensic Science and in Psychology. My experience in the social-sciences has helped me extensively strengthen my observation, writing and critical-thinking skills. I have had multiple opportunities to interact with students including tutoring 3rd graders through the Say Yes to Education Program. I have been highly involved in assisting my former High School's spring musical, teaching students acting and singing techniques. For a period of nearly 2 years, I tutored a high school student in all her classes (including Algebra, Geometry, Biology, English Literature and Grammar, Global and US History, and French) as she remained out of school for health reasons.
I believe that every single child can be taught. The method that I have used in the past is to relate coursework and material to the child's own ... read more
