As a professional news reporter and feature writer, I bring a unique perspective to the use of English grammar,sentence structure, vocabulary, punctuation and spelling in the writing and/or storytelling process. In addition to having taught speech and non-traditional forms of communication in a secondary school setting, my experience includes editing and writing for technical and specialty publications, Web content, society magazines, resumes, advertising copy and books. It is important to understand what motivates each child and to strive to communicate with him or her in a manner to which he or she can relate. I believe mastery of the English language, both written and spoken, continues to be relevant to success and that every individual should take pride in being able to influence how they are perceived by others.

I am a very recent graduate of Penn State where academics are a main focus. I have a B.S. in Psychology and a B.A. in Political Science and feel qualified to tutor in spelling, writing, English, reading and related subjects. I would tutor a student in other subjects on a case by case basis. I have written a lot of papers and am very good at grammar. I have been an English tutor to foreign adults and my students always do well and enjoy learning. I am a very patient person and my teaching style reflects that. I will always make sure your child understands the concepts that the teacher is trying to teach. Even when he or she shows that the material is understood I will always go over it a few more times to make sure it really sticks. Everyone has a learning style that works best for them and I will try to figure out the method that will allow your child to improve the most. I will also try
