I love English Language Arts, You Can Too!

I believe teaching is a combination of hands on and direct instruction. Learning should be fun too.
I am a teacher at a school for dyslexic students. I have been teaching high school and middle school for nine years. Prior to that I was a journalist. I am also an adjunct professor, part time, at Ocean County Community College. There, I teach two freshmen English courses. I am skilled in reading comprehension techniques and spelling instruction.

Creative Writing is one of my top subjects! Creative Writing is my passion. I love to teach Creative Writing, because just as in composition, you learn about the student's style and imagination. I am EXTREMELY detailed when it comes to a student's piece of writing. I teach English under the notion that writing could always get better. I am certified in NJ as "Teacher of English", and can work with student from Emergent Writing to Collegiate Writing.

Students best learn by doing, by experiencing, and from a variety of experiences that incorporate their five senses. Students learn with different paces and styles. There is no one way for a student to become well-rounded, it is just a matter of providing experiences where the student can learn from the environment. It is not a matter of one student being better than the other, rather it is a matter of students learning in different ways.
My experience entails a well rounded experience of teaching students from preK to adult. My most important position was acting as Director of Education for Sylvan Learning, where I basically ran the learning center. I supervised teachers and all student programs, conferred with parents from the beginning to the end of their experience with Sylvan, and did so much more to develop a positive experience with all clients and teachers involved.

More About This Tutor...

At Hofstra University I gained not only the experience necessary to work with a diverse group of children and teachers, but also the understanding of how important reading, writing, comprehension, and grammatical skills are in life. I hold a Bachelors Degree in English Literature as well as Sociology. In the past 3 years I have been given the opportunity to help students to learn and grow in several different fields. I have spent time in several different schools teaching middle school subjects to advanced learners and even children ranging from ages 5-15 who suffer from learning disabilities and lack social skills. I spend my time volunteering for many educational organizations and I am very proud of my education and experience.
My main focus when teaching is to "keep it interesting". Students struggle with relating to their teachers and administrators in a classroom or school set ... read more

I focus on starting small and helping the student develop on their own. For example, when I teach how to write a strong essay, we write many drafts of an introduction. Then, we write many drafts of body paragraphs. Last, we would focus on writing a conclusion. Then, by working seperately on all of an essay's parts, the combined product is much stronger. The art of teaching is similiar to building a house: you start with an idea, then a foundation, and finally the framework.
I volunteered at the Ocean County Library writing center for four years and helped my peers construct, organize, and layout essays. I also proofread, edited, and helped in the creative process of their essays. I am curreently working part-time at Ocean County Library (Lakewood Branch) tutoring k-12 students after school in the S.M.A.R.T kids program.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an English educator, I firmly believe that the more experience you acquire, the more effective your teaching style becomes. Since I not only teach language arts in a middle school setting, but also accept positions which require me to tutor students of all ages (elementary to college level students), I feel my experiences have allowed me to become very flexible and adaptable to any teaching situation and any student's need. Also, because of these experiences, I am more confident in the content area I teach, but I am still open to learning new ways to present material.
My teaching style is fair, but firm. I am a strict believer in following directions and organization as a basis for any subject taught, and I strive to help my students understand this process as they go through their educational careers. My role is not just as educator, I am a director in my student's study sk ... read more

I am a practicing attorney, who strives for high level of excellence in everything I do. I have skills in history and political science. I also have experience with public speaking. As an attorney, I also have a vast knowledge of research and writing.
I enjoy working with children. I believe each child is different in the way that they learn and you have to vary your teaching style to the child. However, my general teaching style would be to provide examples that the child could relate to in their daily life.

My time tutoring has helped me shape a tutoring strategy in which I first identify the level of help the student needs and then guide the student through collaborative efforts to the realization of his or her own innate writing abilities. I create a safe space where the student feels free to ask any question without shame. Within this safe environment the student can help identify his or her writing strengths and weaknesses, and ultimately become a better writer.
My experience includes work as a professional tutor for Penn State University where I helped undergraduate students with English papers at all levels of development from brainstorming to final drafts. I also co-taught writing workshops on grammar and proper research for an English paper. In addition, I possess my Master of Fine Arts in Writing, and therefore have experience with conducting my own research and writin ... read more

Since 2000, I have tutored students of all levels in a variety of subjects. During my undergraduate studies, I earned a BA in communication (public relations) and specialized in political science. At that time, I was trained through 4H America Reads to teach young, multilingual students how to read. While not tutoring, I practice criminal law. My job requires me to write and speak to an array of audiences each day. I also make appearances at local schools and libraries for presentations. Contact me if you need help with any project or report, reading, writing, vocabulary, business, government and study skills.
I began tutoring K through 5th graders at an elementary school. Many of my students only spoke Spanish at home. From then, I continued tutoring elementary school students with a wide range of abilities. A few of my students were gifted, and we worked on sharpening their alre ... read more

With very strong analytical skills and very strong concentration skills, I have a very high level of patience and will educate each student thoroughly. Mathematics is a whole different language and I want to help those who want to learn and understand how math can be used to solve certain everyday situations. Some students will need a very high level of math and science when furthering their career path; I want to be able to help them learn and help them be prepared.

Currently, I am a graduate student pursuing a degree in Urban Education with a specialization in English as a Second Language. My undergraduate degree is in English. For the past two years I've been working as a substitute teacher while working on my degree. Recently, I have volunteered as a tutor for English Language Learners.
As an ESL instructor, I understand the special needs ELLs require as they learn a new language. I have had experience with students from various backgrounds and have implemented different learning approaches for each individual student. I always aim to create lessons and learning strategies that are specific to a student's needs. I see my role as a facilitator who is there to help students learn and understand their subjects the way that best suits the student's learning style.
