Composition Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help

My teaching style with students of all ages is to facilitate their learning as opposed to simply feeding them what I feel is the best response. Students learning is maximized when they can take ownership of and pride in their work. I am very patient. Recognizing that all students learn differently, I seek to ascertain their learning styles and then adjust my tutoring style to that learning style. I taught and tutored ESL two years before entering law school. I hae taught college classes as an adjunct and later FT professor at Penn College for 25 years. I currently serve as Career Outreach Coordinator for HACC-Lebanon Campus. I have tutored many students, particularly in areas such as writing essays. I also served as a reader for the SAT Writing section, so I am familiar with what they are seeking. I am very proficient in grammar and structure.

A person who has strong negative feelings about learning is automatically hindered in any learning environment. I first gain the trust of my students, and then start to build an appreciation for learning in their minds. Once that process has begun, I inject a sense of humor, a sense of patience, and a great deal of love into my teaching. I have been a classroom teacher for over 20 years. I have taught all subjects in elementary school, English, history, and mathematics in middle school, and English composition and literature in high school. Additionally, I have taught mass communication and creative writing in high school. I have taught remedial English, freshman composition, and technical writing on a collegiate level.

I feel a great deal of satisfaction in assisting children to fulfill their educational potentials. I believe that a solid foundation in arithmetical and writing/reading basics is essential for further educational success. I therefore prefer to tutor elementary school children. I believe that a prime goal of a tutor is to prepare material that the students can enjoy while they are learning and developing study skills. This will foster a desire to learn and a love for learning. I currently tutor privately 2 days a week for a 2nd Grader diagnosed with ADHD in reading comprehension, writing, and math.
