My comments on tutoring Writing Skills : Senior, BA in communications, specialization in professional writing

Have experience in all subjects listed as I have completed these courses myself; as a communications major I've worked in public relations and media though I have extensive freelance writing experience. Prior career experience includes non profit and healthcare related management as well as other positions which I believe have been important in obtaining the abilities needed to communicate successfully in many ways; this will directly assist me in tutoring though this is a new area for me outside of my home.
Each individual has a distinct learning style which must be recognized in order to promote and facilitate better learning and achievement, it is essential that a teaching style in the format of tutoring match the students learning style.

A Little Bit About Me...

I really do not have a teaching style yet. A one on one setting is what I am used to. I am open to different teaching techniques depending on the help the child requires. The internet is available and has many different techniques to learning different subjects I can research as I see fit.

I understand that all children learn differently and I am able to adapt my teaching style to fit the child. I am both patient and positive and I like to give the student confidence. My goal is to not only help the child learn, but to also give them a sense of confidence. It is important that each student believe in his or herself as well as their capabilities.
I have been working with children for several years. I started by teaching dance at a local dance studio while I was in high school. It was from this experience that I chose to go to college to become a teacher. I have a degree in Elementary Education and am ESOL certified. I have experience as a substitute teacher and have worked with both elementary and middle school students.

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the years, I have consistently maintained both high moral values and excellent academic standards. While earning my two BA Degrees, I served both as a tutor and substitute teacher in several elementary schools. My second BA Degree was earned from Warner University in the elementary education major which was earned in addition to my special education endorsement. Armed with a degree in education and proven extensive grammatical skills, I taught middle and high school students in all academic disciplines including Math, Reading, English, Writing, Literature, Social Studies, Life Skills, History, Science, and Geography.
I am committed to helping each person reach his or her highest and greatest potential. My goal is to provide each student with an educational environment conducive for a successful learning experience. The tutor must establish the learning setting by creating ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am certified to teach both math and reading in Florida. I am particularly strong in helping students to understand the basics. I became a teacher because I feel that I can make a positive difference in my students' lives while providing them quality instruction from a teacher who truly cares. My last teaching assignments were in preparing high risk students to pass the FCAT and the GED. My students exhibited a ninety-seven percent pass rate on both tests upon passing my class.
Students should be taught as individuals based on their particular learning styles. People learn at their own rate. My philosophy is that all students can be successful if taught by a caring qualified teacher in a positive learning environment. I thoroughly enjoy the challenges of teaching. My reward comes when my students are successful in learning and develop positive self-esteems towards learning ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy very much teaching anyone that is eager to learn. I am able to seek information an all resources necessary to provide your child with the best education possible. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn, in many different ways, depending on each individual skill. I also believe that education is the most important tool that anyone can have in their life and that educators are the main resource for making the difference in a child's or an adult's life and education.
During my 13 years of working experience at the Employment Office in Lowell, Massachusetts in conjunction with a year of working experience at CTI YouthBuild, also in Lowell, Massachusetts, I was able to provide extensive classroom training to public assistance customers and also to young adults in many different areas; to help enhance their skills in the work force field.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated Laguna Beach High Scool with awards for Art and Creative Writing and was the only one to take home all 4 possible awards including a scholarship. In colledge I was a Teaching Assistant for 4 teachers, and it was then that I realized my knack for and enjoyment of teaching. My career, however, has been in the Accounting field, 30+ years, in many industries, in various size companies, and have continued to train and teach others. I listed "5" years experience as a guestimate representation of the teaching portion, which I hope will be considered in lieu of more formal education.
I achieved the higher-level accounting positions because I am good at teaching myself. This is based on a desire to see the whole picture, WHY something works rather than just that it does or does not. I believe that in teaching others it is important to be positive, to notice when it's time to b ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am familiar with most major learning styles but do not subscribe to one particular view. To me, effective teaching means being fluid, adaptable, and responsive to the students’ needs and learning styles. Just as a carpenter will use the right tools for the right job, I believe that a good instructor can assess and pick from several approaches the one that will benefit his or her students the most. In all cases, enthusiasm and knowledge of the subject matter are the two most important attributes a teacher can posses.
I have direct experience as a tutor in the University of Texas at Tyler Writing Center. While working there, I assisted students in all parts of the writing process from initial outlines to proper citation of sources. My more recent positions have all involved some element of training. These experiences ranged from lecture-style presentations to phone, email and ... read more

Over the last three years I have worked in Hillsborough County as a Middle School Science Teacher. After three years of teaching Science I had a strong desire to work with ESE and Special Needs children so I became a Sub for Hillsborough County so I could travel where need and work with various children. Prior to teaching in FL, I taught in SC and provided reading pull out in WV. During my time in WV I worked on a dual Masters in Literacy and Elementary Education, but was unable to finish it due to lack of aid. While teaching FL, I have also tutored children privately and with a SES service.
I love working with children of all ages. I feel that all children can learn and that even the most struggling learners can improve if given encouragement and success. I am easy going, creative, and patient when it comes to teaching. I find that my teaching style is based on what my students ne ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with any age group, but especially high school and community college students seeking to improve their writing skills. I believe in spending quality time with students in order to customize strategies and techniques specific to their needs. Because we all learn differently, I am able to coach to any learning style. With the academic and professional world growing more competitive each day, sound writing skills are needed to help people land a job, communicate well at work, network effectively, and grow professionally. I learned from writing professionals with decades of journalistic, technical, and academic writing experience. I now use that experience to help make a difference in my students' lives.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Sports Journalism from the University of New Hampshire and am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Education from the University of Pho ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I graduated with a BS in theology because I felt it was interesting as much as it was challenging! A reason for this is because I've always helped youth in a para-ministry setting (volunteer/paid) and found a knowledge of Theology helped a great deal. I worked for a non-profit organization off and on for a total of close to 4 years. For approx 3 of those 4 years, I worked in a private school setting with Jr. high and Sr. high students. My role was to protect, inspire, and tutor students so to achieve an education sometimes earlier than anticipated (they sometimes would get their diploma early). I have tutored in English, Math(Alg I or lower), Science, History.
My teaching style is "one-on-one" for the most part. My first instinct with tutoring is empathetic: if I were struggling in this particular subject, what would be the best way for me to understand it? If this method proves in ... read more

I enjoy and love working with children. I am a firm believer that all children have the ability to achieve academic success.

I do this with a constructive approach to learnin ... read more
