I love to inspire creativity and push for success!

I have taught English/Language Arts for 3 years to 6-8 grade students, and I have worked as a tutor in various capacities for the past 7 years. This past summer I opened my own business: a program dedicated to teaching the craft of creative writing to kids. Currently, I am back in school at University of Dayton's online graduate program, with a goal of obtaining my Master's of Literacy.
I love to incorporate creative and outside-the-box approaches in my teaching methods. I genuinely believe that often, to get students to understand material, they need to be interested in the concepts and I try to keep that in mind during my preparation. I also believe it is important to help students learn to become critical thinkers and independent learners, and therefore, I try to push them to achieve success beyond what they believe they are capable of achieving.

Experienced reading and writing instructor.

Teaching reading to students of all ages is and has been my love in education.

I teach reading using proven strategies with multi-sensory techniques to help students understand the skills being taught, leading to greater progress and success.
My teaching experience focuses on teaching students who face reading struggles including dyslexic tendencies. I have had extensive experience teaching reading to dyslexic students.

I will tailor my teaching style to fit your needs. First, I will need to know what you are studying as well as your goals. Then we will work together to discover what methods will work the best for you to learn. From there, I will work on methods to use during our time together to help you learn. Given the diverse topics I can tutor in, it is difficult to say what my precise methods would be. I will work to give you the tools to study on your own.

My teaching style depends a lot on the student or students. But I always approach developing English skills with the philosophy that it is a process. Mistakes are a natural part of learning. And the key to doing anything well is practice and more practice!
I have taught English at the college and high school level, mainly in composition and grammar. I have also taught creative writing, poetry, and study skills courses. I have taught both in the classroom and online. Additionally, I have extensive tutoring experience, both privately and for my university.

My comments on tutoring Language Arts : I am very familiar with the curriculum across grade levels.

I have a Masters of Arts in Special Education, K-12, and have just completed classes leading towards my reading endorsement. I am currently a qualified Orton-Gillingham tutor. Besides my practicum experiences, I have been a Subsitute Teacher for the past six years, and have tutored students in grades 1 - 4th grade in reading and math.
I support the Orton-Gillingham philosophy where learning to read is a multisensory process that is systematic and cumulative.

Unique Tutor

I often use word games or riddles as rewards for good work. It motivates effort from my students and makes them listen more closely. With my esl students, I made sure to apply new words to their life in order to gain the most retention of the new vocabulary words. The approach I use of ask students to draw from their own lives in order to illustrate meaning and comprehension encourages a dailogue that works well with any vocabulary words for any age group.
Substitue teacher and esl tutor for the past 4 years. I worked with various classes from Algebra to IEP classes and ESL, from Science to Social studies and everything in between. I taught classes and did not hand out worksheets. My rules in class were, you dont waste a class period. I used litle tricks to make sure they did not waste time and actually learned from me. My students often come up to me when they see me in public to ... read more
