In addition to a BA in English and an MFA in Creative Writing/Poetry, I have more than a decade of editing experience. I was a volunteer editor for Poetry International Magazine and am a founding editor of The California Journal of Poetics. I am a stickler for grammar, spelling, and syntax. Typos and other errors stick out to me as if illuminated by neon lights. My colleagues often come to me for when they need something proofread. I am all about positivity. I believe in constructive feedback and intelligent discussion. I am patient and willing to approach a subject or issue from many angles until the student is comfortable with the material. I believe that passionate teachers create passionate students. I want people to love this stuff as much as I do!

I have tutored ESL students in a college setting for the State University of New York (SUNY) at Potsdam. I have also worked as a tutor for Club Z Tutoring for English and biology. My students improved greatly. I have participated in several writing workshops for creative writing and academic writing at SUNY Potsdam. I have college credit in several areas, including creative writing, professional writing, grant writing, psychology, biology, communications, speaking, sociology, and history. I believe that no one is stupid or can't learn, I believe that students have different learning styles. I like to help people and am a hands on tutor who enjoys explaining concepts to the student in different ways until they are able to master the subject. I love teaching!

One of my favorites. Im very helpful with learning and correcting the grammar technique in english writing. I am also very professional with editing and proof reading works of writing needing to be turned in for college. I am very proficient with teaching my students to understand rather than just finish the activity or problem. I pay very close attention to the learning style of my students. I make sure they are focusing and learning rather than copying my teachings. I continously tutor ages k-12, college students and international students. I have been tutoring for five years and enjoy sifting out the difficulties. Many students have trouble absorbing the material and many students read the curriculum abstractly. I help my students with processing the material easier so that we can progress efficiently.

I can teach grammar, and I can also edit your work for grammar and punctuation. I assess the student's level of mastery by listening to parents, communicating with the student (in whatever appropriate way needed) and then doing some basic testing. Once the student is assessed, I design a learning environment and activities that coincide with the student's specific strengths, while adding some elements of challenge. I tend to work in a very focused way for 10-15 minutes, and then add in tactile activities (like Bannana Grams for example) for 10 minutes or so, in order to maintain the student's attention. Children and youth who are struggling to read and write get patient assistance to learn the words correctly. My work will improve writing techniques (including essays and basic writing skills), reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and literary creativity. For younger children I

I like to get to know my students so that we can focus only exactly what you need to improve as quickly as possible.

My two undergraduate majors were English and French. As a result, I am quite the grammarian. I believe learning should always be engaging and meaningful. It is critical to address individual student learning modalities and needs so the student can experience great success. I have always been a teacher of best practices, meaning incorporating those strategies and methodologies which are the most effective. They work because they promote high student investment and engagement.
