Writing is one of my top subjects! Beginners (K - 1 graders) in writing should focus on how to print letter and words legibly. They need to practice the use of appropriate strokes, loops, and lines to form upper and lower case letters. Use of lined or ruled papers are ideal in practicing how to print letters because it has blue and red colors with broken lines in between straight lines. Writing needs the correct usage of Conventions such as Capitalization, Grammar, Spelling, and Punctuations. Students should use the rules in writing such as when to use Capital letters or upper case letters, Paragraph writing (which composes a composition) should use indentation and spacing. For more information in writing, please go back to area: Composition which states a lot of information on writing.

From 1985 - 1991 I taught at the United States Refugee Program. On October 1991 I was sent by the US Refugee Program to University of Omaha, Nebraska as a guest lecturer on ESL. Then I worked as a tutor in English Business for foreign professionals in Connecticut from December 1991 - 1995.

I am an experienced, caring tutor.

I have over 10 years of experience tutoring. I have tutored elementary to college students and even taught basic reading through Sylvan's Ace-It tutoring. I have extensive experience working one-on-one and also in groups. I was a Supplemental Instruction Leader all through my college years which allowed me to work with groups and instructors, creating sample tests and quizzes, and helping individuals with different learning styles. I have assisted others with learning Spanish, even when English was not the first language, and helped high school up to college students.
My teaching style is adaptable to the student.

In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.

I believe that each student learns differently, and that we need to target those learning styles and use them in ways that can help one another.
I have been teaching for over ten years. It is not just a job, it is my passion. I love going into my classroom everyday and learning with my students. Together, we conquer the day in our curricular subjects, but also in our social environments all with a growth mindset and determinations. Do we make mistakes along the way? Yes, of course we do, but those are celebrated as learning opportunities, things that we can grow from. Learning and growing together makes every day exciting and fun! 1

College student looking to pursue growth in you and herself

My teaching style all depends on the subject and the student. Everyone learns differently. Unfortunately, the public school system seems to disagree with that. I begin by assessing the type of learner you are and from there I pick my teaching style.
I have experience in and outside of the classroom in all of the fields I listed. From a 4.0 G.P.A to sales office growth I have learned a lot and am eager to share my experience in order to help others. English is and will always be my favorite subject. I have done speech writing and presenting to essay competitions. God blessed me with a way with words and I have used it to excel in many areas of my life.

Enthusiastic learner and tutor!

With respect to tutoring, I worked during the summer of 2009 as a teachers assistant for a summer-school program known as Korea Poly. The students were 3-6th graders and required assistance in completing homework and practicing and refining their English writing and speaking skills. My duties included checking and correcting homework assignments, and being available during the homework hours for questions and help. In addition I have been the recipient of tutoring before, so I am familiar with student considerations and concerns when it comes to having a tutor.

Writing is one of my top subjects! I have extensive experience in both MLA, and APA format in writing. I have completed a 24 page Journal article on the topic of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have helped tutor students in high school and college in both formats, and helped them with research and composition writing. What seems as a daunting writing task to someone else would be a welcomed challenge for me.

I enjoy walking alongside students with patience and encouragement. I look at the the why behind the writing obstacle, and assist the student to achieve their personal goals. What other people view as a daunting writing task, I see as fun. We can achieve your writing needs together.
I have tutored Middle School students in all aspects of Language Arts. I have tutored high school students in all aspects of English Composition. I have tutored College students in English 101, English 102 and Psychology research. Both MLA and APA formats are a strong tutoring component which is utilized in all writing tutoring.

Your Child's Best Interest.

I want your child to be able to feel comfortable to ask questions. A lot of students are scared to look "less than" in front of their peers if they ask questions. English and Literature are subjects meant to be questioned and not just read. I believe that your child has every capability to learn and my job is to help them turn on the light bulb to help them see that reading and writing aren't as hard as they seem to be.
I have student taught since my senior year in high school as a credit. I have tutored family members and coworkers. I am currently a third year student at Glendale Community College (GCC) and my major is Secondary Education in English. I student taught Senior English last semester and this experience has proved that this is the place that I want to be. I plan on going to ASU in the Fall of 2019 to continue my education.

I usually tutor one on one and in small groups.
