My comments on tutoring Writing : 9 years experience teaching writing in grades 6-12 including all levels from general to AP students. 2 years tutoring experience in writing for all grade levels at tutoring center.

As a teacher, you learn to adapt you teaching style to fit the student; therefore, a tutoring position would allow me to use the teaching style that fits best with the individual with whom I am currently working.
I am an experience English, Language Arts, Writing teacher of nine years! I spent five of those years teaching middle school, grades 6-8, and another four years teaching high school level, grades 9-12. Both age groups allowed me the opportunity to teach all levels and work with different learning styles.

I am a College Student studying English and Politics

I am a very firm believer that each human being has a different way of learning. I also believe that each subject has a different way to be taught. I teach based off of my students, as well as the subject.
I was a tutor in high school for many elementary and middle school aged children. I am also experienced with writing papers, so I can help anyone who is writing for a college application or essay. I am a very quick learner, so if there is a subject I am not as familiar with I am willing to study it to help a student. My goal is to help students understand the context being taught, as well as teach them the importance of this knowledge. I have often used the phrase "When will I ever need this?" and I have learned later on in life that each subject is important. This is the messageI want to get across to children, that learning new things is a very important aspect of life.

"Writing is the painting of the voice!" -Voltaire

Currently I'm a high school student at Lincoln Charter school in Denver. Ever since I started High school I've taken all honors classes, and graduated those classes with 90's and above. Right now I'm currently taking college writing class 111 and 112 in the 11th Grade. I take AP U.S. History. I enjoy reading and writing in my free time. Language, Grammar, Punctuation and Writing comes very naturally to me. Currently in my College writing class I have a 98%.
I can accommodate to what is best for your learning needs, I do not like tutoring online. Face to face is better; I like to know who I'm teaching on a personal level in order to make them comfortable when learning. Learning should be a fun process, not stressful!

Writing is one of my top subjects! As a graduate creative writing major, I know at least the basic tenets of writing. Writing is the act of carefully considering one's words, only on paper and with the advantage of having time to pick them out compared to speaking. Grammar, logical sentences, and communicating ideas efficiently are what I can help you learn, with emphasis on how you can do so with modern technologies. Specifically because my handwriting is terrible, and the art of writing has grown by leaps and bounds thanks to the keyboard.

I try to approach client's problems on a case by case nature: they have a particularly hard to write paper or a class that just isn't working for them, and I will try to work closely with them to find solutions. I will not write a client's paper or perform any creative work for them, but I will edit or provide guidance as needed. While there are no shortcuts to an A, I will share what has worked for me and others in the real world.
I'm a recent college graduate from NC State, with a degree in Creative Writing. However, the CW course instilled in me knowledge in a variety of fields from film to philosophy, and as a requirement of modern education made me more than just fluent in the language of computers. I'm a would-be author, and a writer of short stories, and have won an honorable mention in a few poetry contests. In college I was frequently asked by friends in less libera ... read more

Hands on- creative-student centered learning!

I think that a lot of learning happens by students being actively engaged in what they are learning. I try to get/make hands on activities for students to learn.
I am a certified teacher. I have taught first grade and I am currently teaching second grade. I have 2 years experience as a tutor for students in elementary school and also high school. I work hard to help students do the best they can. I look for ideas outside the box to help students learn. Along with hands on activities, I also incorporate catchy ways to remember certain objectives. I make learning fun by creating a great relationship with the student which allows them to learn and want to learn.

Once I have an understanding of what a student is capable of I like to push them to go past their "comfort zone" in learning. It helps them understand that what may look difficult, may not always be so and that they only way to find out is to learn it. Also, I do not teach study habits. Instead I like to see what a students current habits are and work on expanding those habits so that the child does not get frustrated and overwhelmed. It is easier to learn more from current knowledge than try to teach a whole new way. After all, most students study habits are based on how their teacher has taught them, and I wouldn't go against what the teacher has taught. The point of tutoring is to help a child understand the work they are currently doing in school. It is my job to make sure that happens. I will want to speak with your child to determine the best way to teach them.

Cognitive Learning Intervention Strategies for Education

Using a multi-sensory strategies and the Socratic Method of questioning, I enable to students to experience learning and discover answers in a meaningful way.

Writing is one of my top subjects! I worked as a college writing tutor for three out of four years of my undergrad experience.

I served as a writing tutor to my peers while I was in college. I did this for three years and it seemed to help the students a great deal. This position was accompanied by training provided by one of my professors at Montreat College. The training lasted a full semester. I have also been tutoring a 14 year-old boy in reading comprehension for the past year. He has greatly improved since we started last summer in the speed of his reading, interest in what he is reading, and better comprehension as a whole.

That depends on the student. Styles can be adapted to meet the needs of the student
I have 12 years experience in the healthcare/mental health field and a lot of that experience has been working with children and teens. I work well one on one with children and feel individualized attention provides the structure and support that many kids need. I am available to come to your home as this would minimize distractions too.
