I worked for two years at the Cleveland State University Writing Center where I tutored writing and reading comprehension to undergraduate and graduate students of many academic backgrounds. I tutored students one-on-one and also taught writing workshops to groups of 3-6 students. In February of 2013, I began tutoring GED prep at Seeds of Literacy, an adult education organization in Cleveland. I am comfortable tutoring most topics covered on the test. If there is a topic I am unsure about, I will let you know up front. I am also certified to be a foster parent and subsequently possess well-rounded knowledge concerning the learning needs of children and young adults of varying abilities and learning styles. My teaching style is patient, relaxed, and supportive. I tend to tailor my methods to the needs and personality of the student.

I believe that it is most important to use materials and topics that are relevant and interesting to my students. If a student can connect to a topic or idea, they are one step closer to being competent readers and writers in that area. I utilize techniques and tools in the education field as well as creating materials that fit each individual child. I am a licensed educator with tutoring and teaching experience. -I have worked with at-risk 11th and 12th graders in an Ohio high school teaching Language Arts, English, Grammar and Reading and Comprehension including classical and young adult literature and researcher paper/essay writing. - I have tutored several young adults for the Ohio Graduation Test in reading and writing as well as general test taking preparation. - I spent over two years tutoring elementary school students in reading and comprehension through AmericaReads.

In high school and throughout my college career, I have tutored many ages- varying from age 8 to age 30. I've earned a BA in English from Kent State University in 2007, and it has helped me to understand the importance of literacy in young adults as well as continuing education. I worked at the Ohio Literacy Resource Center as a tutor for college students, and have been involved with Junior Achievement and tutored French to third grade students for both Garfield Elementary School and Ella Canavan Elementary School in Medina, Ohio during high school. I love to work with all ages, and I believe my approach to tutoring varies depending upon each individual student. I believe in making sure the learning experience is fun by making it more innovative, comprehensive and something that can be applied to real life situations. I strive to make connections within a child's environment so that the

As a bilingual, internationally traveled persona, I have tutored students of all ages. From 1999-2003, I have served as a third grade Teacher's Aide focusing on on reading, memorization and basic math tutoring. Since 1999, I also have tutored middle, high school, and college students in pre-algebra, algebra, geography, computer skills, writing, and grammar. My master's degree has trained me in learning techniques. In my experience, a person needs to be confident in him/herself in order to succeed. Learning of scholastic material is two fold: personal and academic development. By understanding the manner in which the student comprehends new information, we then can build upon their foundation by removing the frustration and replacing it with confidence that will extend into their personal life as well.

I have also worked at a summer camp, working with kids ages 8-20. I also have experience teaching Sunday school ages 4-12. I have a variety of experience. Most of my tutoring experience is with older students, aged 15 or older. However, I feel that I could work with younger kids as well. I love learning, and I get excited when a s

I enjoy the individuality of each student. One student may learn best visually, while another through kinesetics, each a valid learning style. Once a child can find their style they can confidence in their ability to learn. I believe each child can learn I just need to help them find the confidence to do so. I listen to past successes the child tells me about to see how that intersects with learning styles. I believe patience, listening, and perseverance are the tools that help the teacher help the student best. I rediscovered my joy for teaching in my Masters program achieving an M.A. in Theology and Popular Culture. I helped my friends build stronger research papers and better study habits. I have for the past two fall Semesters been teaching what I think are important skills for each person to acquire- reading, study and critical thinking skills. I think these skills help the st

My style of teaching is one based on the importance of engaging the student in learning. I like to present them with examples of good craft, be it writing or sleight of hand, and then helping them come to the conclusion that a given piece of work needs improvement on their own. Furthermore, I feel it is important to have them fully understand and internalize why the improved version is superior. A light approach, with lots of humor and gentle guidance, has served me well both as an entertainer and teacher. My passion for reading and the craft of writing drove me to pursue the study of English language and literature throughout my career at Yale and CWRU. As a graduate student at CWRU, I taught freshman English courses for a year. After graduation, I taught introductory English and composition for about a year at the community college level. Since then I have been an entertainer, an

Having received my Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from San Diego State University, I have been very much interested and enthusiastic about working with students who have deficiencies in writing and reading. Since 2005, I have worked as a tutor of writing, reading and grammar as well as an instructor in the areas of literature and composition. I also have extensive experience working with students who have physical and learning disabilities. I love teaching and working with students. I feel that there is a way to educate and student, no mare how severe his/her problems, so long as I, the tutor, am willing to adjust my teaching style to his/her personality and/or learning problem. All struggling students can fulfill their educational goals so long as they are willing to put for the effort required and I as their tutor am there to guide them. Seeing this transition occur, fro

As an English tutor for the Kent State Writing Commons for four years, I was able to work with a wide variety of students. I enjoyed working with everyone from new entering freshmen to doctoral students. I also worked people in different educational backgrounds and people who were culturally diverse. English as a Second Language (ESL) students were also apart of my daily tutoring regimen. I also have a background which involves working with children ages 6-15. As a childcare provider I taught small classes of children basic reading and writing skills. My teaching style is a “hands on” approach. I like to find out what the student already knows about the subject. I then like to fill in the missing links for the student in a fun, and interactive manner. I discuss any questions that the student has about the material after the initial information is given. I complete the process by going ov

I am a firm believer in the dignity and potential of every child. It is my goal to make the educational experience tailored to a particular child's needs in order to address the specific learning style of the individual and to spark a real interest in the learning process. It is my belief that we can all make a difference one on one. As the mother of four children and manager of a staff of 20, I have had a significant amount of experience in teaching and training. Specifically, as the author of various US EPA approved papers, as well as extensive research opportunities, my grammatical and comprehensive skills are highly developed. I also completed 20 hours of post-graduate study in Conflict Analysis and Resolution. I have tutored students both in reading and writing English as well as working with volunteer groups dedicated to the understanding of the arts in general.

I love teaching and helping others learn something new. I love the smile in a child's eyes when they figure out what they have learned. As a type one diabetic, I constantly figure out new things and apply them to my life. I want to impact those I teach for the better, so they can share their knowledge with the world. I believe knowledge is the greatest gift. I graduated from Mount Union College in 2006. After that, I became certified in the Berlitz method and also tutored foreigners working in the states. I also taught elementary Spanish at Woodridge. In college, I would help my friends with their studies.
