Making A Difference

In May 2012, I received my bachelors degree in English with a Literature Emphasis and a minor in Writing. I graduated with a 3.6 g.p.a. (Cum Laude Honors.) Throughout college, I took various education courses that focused on educational philosophy and physiology, elementary and secondary concentrations, and students with disabilities. I was able to obtain 36 education credits and in 2009, I was admitted into the school of education at my university where I was able to engage in student teachings, researchers, and observations. In 2011, I participated in the student outreach program where I would visit elementary, middle, and high schools to tutor them in English, Math, or Science and guide them through the learning process. From 2007 to 2012, I was part of the writing gym at school where I would help fellow students with their papers and tutor them about his/her grammar and writing struc ... read more

As a holder of two Journalism degrees I have been through the extensive rigors of college and know what it takes to get assignments done properly and haned in on time. I feel that the experience of having just been in college would help benefit any college student seeking help in certain areas of their education. Having two journalism degrees has taught me the grammatical skills to write for numerous media outlets, while also being able to proofread and edit as well. Having worked for the Boys & Girls Club in Janesville, I would work with elementary and high school kids with their homework on a daily basis, covering every primary subject.
I come from a large family of teachers, so teaching and mentoring students is in my blood. Receiving help with homework and research was always a top priority for my parents. The key component that my parents have passed along to me, regard ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style inists of utilizing all aspects of learning. Visual elements are incorporated into a study to help students conceptualize and memorize the highlights of our session. I believe in positive reinforcement and repetition as tools to assist growth in the subject. I also believe that each student is an individual and unique person with diverse interests which can be used to make the lesson more interesting to them.
I am a master's degree graduate of American University in Washington, D.C. I have worked in higher education alongside professors and communications staff. While working as assistant's to professors, I gained experience during guest lectures to classes. In additon, for two months in 2009, I was an English teacher in a distance learning program wherein I taught English to elementary school Korean students via the web. I look forward to opportunities to assist ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a true believer of rewards for excellence and this is how I teach. I believe every positive milestone should be marked and celebrated in some short way. I also am a firm believer in laying out the plan for overall growth with the student.
I currently work with students in 3rd through 8th grade teaching music and spiritual gifts indentification classes. I have volunteered in classrooms of elementary age students during my college years. I worked with students one on one in these settings catching them up with the rest of their class on current projects.

A Little Bit About Me...

Obtaining a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering has exposed me to advanced courses of Math and Science, two subjects which have always fascinated me. I have pursued and achieved excellence in these areas all through my school years and my post graduation career as an industrial engineer has only advanced my knowledge in these areas. English language has been a strong interest of mine since an early age and I have actively cultivated that interest. My reading, writing and grammatical skills have only improved over the years with all the reports, theses and presentations that I had prepared during the course of my education. I have previous and current experience of tutoring students in Math, English and Science.
As a recipient of higher levels of education, I know the career opportunities that such an education opens up later in life. And I am motivated to share my knowledge an ... read more

Read More About Nancy W...

At Harvard University, for five years, I taught expository writing to first year students, focusing on critical thinking skills, the foundation of essay and argument. One of my classes was remedial. I'm a veteran award-winning journalist with nationally-known newspapers and a former Nieman Fellow in Journalism at Harvard, currently completing a novel. I'm particularly adept at working with students with special needs and learning differences.
I ascertain the student's strengths and weaknesses and teach how to draw upon strengths to improve writing. I give detailed feedback throughout the writing process. I measure success by the student's increased confidence.

A Little Bit About Me...

To be a teacher is to be a guide: A guide knows the landscape, has the right equipment, and can quickly adapt to a changing climate. I know academia and the kinds of assignments that professors give and the quality of work they expect. I also know the kinds of mistakes that students too often make. I have the right “equipment:” years of experience teaching students the ins-and-outs of crafting – and completing – research projects and a “pack” of useful tricks for breaking down seemingly intractable problems. My experience has taught me that an effective learning experience (the “climate”) is grounded in good communication and an ability to be flexible and creative. And ultimately – and perhaps most importantly – learning should be fun!
I have twenty-five years experience teaching at the college level. My areas of expertise are Sociology, Criminology, and Legal Studies but my favor ... read more
