More About This Tutor...

Tutored students as a part of an after school program with inner-city, Washington High School. Assisted the struggling students with brainstorming paper topics, clearly communicating ideas, general textbook use, critical thinking, future goal making. I also made a point to get to the students as people not projects. Throughout college I regularly worked with Spanish speaking students to develop clear papers on a variety of subjects. I also helped them edit for proper grammar and sentence structure.

Hi, My name is Madelyn. Just a little bit about myself: I have a great deal of experience working in the classroom. I've worked in both the elementary classroom as well as the preschool classroom. Prior to obtaining my teaching certificate I taught early childhood for 7 years. Currently I am a private tutor working with home school families as a private tutor and consultant. I am also a wife (huge job but rewarding none the less). I can help! My greatest qualities as an educator/tutor are, I am very patient, attentive and engaging. I look forward to working with you/your family in the future

Motivating and Inspiring Students to Learn for Life

Practice a variety of things to motivate students and engage them in the depth of learning.

I love to teach English and I get good results.

I know how important English communication skills are to success in ALL subjects, and my approach helps students to realize the connection between English and all academic areas.
I have taught in Dearborn Public Schools for 34 + years, 32 of which were in grades 9-12. I truly enjoy the process of teaching and watching students improve. Lack of confidence is often the cause of low achievement. I concentrate not only on self-image and confidence, but on ACTUALLY IMPROVING SKILLS so the student's confidence will come from within, not from mere positive re-inforcement, but from actually experiencing their own growth. I love to teach writing skills, reading improvement/comprehension, grammar, and all aspects of English language arts. Teaching for me is more than a job; it's a calling.

Share your knowledge to someone else.

I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education.
Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.

I Teach Kids how to read one letter, one book, one success.

I have taught school for over 23 years. During my teaching career I have worked with multi-levels of students. The majority of my experiences has been on the primary level working with pre-K thru 3rd grade. I also have experience with 5th grade all subjects. But I have my own tutoring Company and I have worked with kids to adults. I love literacy, phonemic awareness, phonics, and teaching children to read,
I love to teach from a kinesthetic approach. I believe that all students learn differently. So I provide all types of manipulatives for learning.

Read More About Amy B...

My teaching style is very interactive. I like to begin a tutoring session by helping the student set a goal for the session. We then begin work on the material. During the session I encourage the student's learning by asking open-ended questions to encourage critical thinking. With writing assignments, the pen is always in the student's hand and, with guidance, the student makes choices about his or her writing. I use a method I call guided discovery, which encourages students to think in depth about their subject, discovering new methods and information with guidance from me.
In addition to having a Master of Arts in English Literature, I have extensive experience teaching English at the college level. I have spent the last three years as the Writing Corner Director at a Kansas community college, administering all of the writing tutoring for the college. This has provided me with ... read more
