Every word you write runs the risk of being read.

To learn to write, you have to write! My approach is highly practical and hands-on.
I am a freelance writer and editor in Roswell, with experience in print, online, and broadcast media. I have extensive experience teaching newswriting as a teaching assistant at the University of Florida; I later accepted an invitation at UF to serve as a regular lecturer in the ethics of journalism to graduate students. Later, I taught business journalism at the University of North Florida.

Teacher and Tutor: Certified

I am an certifed educator with over 7 years experience working with children in grades K-12 with learning needs. I have one-on-one and small group tutoring experience as well. I am certified in Special Education (P-12) and Elementary Education (P-5). I have experience teaching grades K-5, 6 - 8 and high school. I also have experience with children with special needs in the areas of dyslexia, dysgraphia, autism, Asperger's, EBD, SLD and many others.
I teach with the child's needs at the forefront of the learning plan. I believe everyone has the ability to learn but must learn in their own way with patience and nurturing.

I was a teaching assistant at North Georgia College and State University for three years. I assisted with laboratory sections of biology courses and taught them in the event of a professors absence. I provided department funded tutoring services during that time as well. I have taken the GRE and Biology Section of the GRE and received excellent scores on both tests in only one sitting. I have also coached 4H horse quiz bowl and horse judging teams for several years working with elementary and middle school age children.

Journalism is one of my top subjects! Having served as both a contributing author and editor of UNG's online newspaper publications, my passion for journalism is strong. Under the tutelage of Ron Martz, a 30+ years veteran of the Atlanta Journal Constitution, I developed a myriad of writing, editing, and interviewing skills.

First and foremost, I am passionate about helping children and youth learn, overcome obstacles, and believe in themselves, whether that be academically or otherwise. Over the years, I have learned and had the opportunity to work with and encourage children and teenagers with various behavioral issues, ranging from Aspergers Syndyrome to anxiety and anger issues,so I have a great deal of patience with students whom others consider difficult to work with. Having graduated from the University of North Georgia with a degree in Writing & Publication and a Minor in Mass Communications, I'm confident that the skills I've acquired would serve me well as an effective tutor. My outgoing personality, sense of humor, patience, and 6-summer experience as a camp counselor combine to create an enjoyable learning atmosphere for the students I tutor . With a genuine enthusiasm for working with people fr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test prep teacher, I have a close knowledge of students' approach to graduate school, and the process of improving their chances of acceptance to schools of choice. I am academically qualified and more especially interested in teaching humanities courses.
The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from wit ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am energetic and relevant. I feel personal wins when my students grasp an idea or concept I am trying to get them to understand. I choose to work creatively and effectively. I embrace challenges and love investing my life into the education of others.
I have had the unique opportunity throughout college to tutor in various areas. I was very active within a vocal performance group and had the opportunity to assist in public speaking venues frequently. I got the opportunity to assist in a fourth grade classroom, emphasizing the importance of public speaking. I just returned from a semester teaching (English) in Seoul, South Korea. I have a passion for words, for communication and above all, for understanding.

To go along with my writing passion, I also have a passion for working with children. I understand that each child is different; different skill sets, different learning methods and different needs. I like to get a deeper understanding of each child - their likes, interests, and goals - and use those things to creatively teach new concepts and ideas, or reaffirm old ones. I understand that not every child enjoys certain subjects, such as writing, but I try to make the process as enjoyable as possible. It brings me great joy when I see a child light up because they finally understand something. It is my goal to achieve that in each situation.
After graduating from high school with high honors, I struggled to make the transition from that rigid environment, to one of endless possibilities. I weighed the pros and cons of a graphic design or teaching major, taking classes in both the f ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style encourages relating reading and writing to what they are already reading, writing and listening to. If students can understand language and grammar in their own context and how it is useful then it will be better and easier to incorporate into their own writing and reading and therefore more natural. For example, while teaching ballads I introduced a Coldplay and Bob Dylan songs to students to better understand Lord Randall and other ballads of the time. I am driven by watching students succeed as far as test scores are concerned, but also teaching them the life skills that literature introduces to us.
My experience consists of working with students in a classroom as well as working one on one with students through tutoring. While finishing my English Education degree I worked with a tutoring group in low income schools. I worked in a middle school language arts c ... read more

I currently am working on certification in Special Education K-12. I will be finished in a few months. I will then be pursuing my PhD. I have vast experience in the business field but education is my true passion. I work for Dekalb County Schools as a teacher and love every minute of it. I have been tutoring for the last 2 years.
Since I have been in school, I have learned vast forms of teaching that help aid students with and without learning disabilities. In utilizing kinesthetic approaches to learning along with visual and auditory means helps to guide the student into a higher learning style.
