I have worked with all different ages of students, from 3rd grade to college, and enjoyed all of my experiences. I find that no matter who the student is I enjoy teaching and helping other, helping an individual to not only grasp concepts but develop a stronger self confidence in their learning. I am good at adapting to a variety of learning styles, especially since I have found that I learn from a variety of types myself. I have always been extremely patient when teaching others and found the act of teaching to be one of the most rewarding and enjoyable things for me. As a Hiram College student I feel I have gained a great deal of knowledge through a combination of learning from excellent instructors and having a variety of teaching experiences. I student taught tenth grade for a semester during my senior year of college at West Geauga High School. This experience was very valuable and

As a mother of three teenagers with distinctly different personalities and learning styles, I approach teaching in customized ways that help them open up rather than close down when faced with academic obstacles. I have refined that approach when working with other students, as well. I believe a positive attitude is contagious, so I initiate conversations which enable the student to express whatever knowledge they already have in a given subject. Then we build upon that base of understanding, filling in gaps with new knowledge, eventually reaching higher levels of comprehension and mastery of the subject. Along the way, the student gains stronger self-confidence; a vital ingredient in higher achievement. As a freelance writer and public relations specialist, I write for Air Shows magazine, The Villager newspaper, and online magazine Suite 101. My writing also appears in Front Row

I enjoy teaching and entertaining the kids. Basically, I want to make learning fun and I want to communicate with my students in a way that we both can connect and gain from the experience. I am patient and committed and enjoy one-on-one tutoring just as must as teaching to a class. As a graduate of an international Ivy League-equivalent, I have world and life experience--as well as a great education--that rivals many. I have a passion for writing and knowledge which translates to my ability to teach and share with people of all ages and all skill levels. I currently teach disabled children part-time at Fieldstone Farms Therapeutic Riding Center.

Coming from a Hungarian background, I have always been in tune to language and I have been influenced in many ways by my mother, a native of Hungary, and teachers throughout the years. I have had access to the best reading and writing education, leading me to feel a strong connection to the mechanics of speech and teaching others those principles. I hold a bachelor's degree in English from Ohio University, and I volunteered as a literacy tutor and copy editor/reporter for The Post, a newspaper on campus. As an editorial intern for Cleveland Magazine, I have enjoyed writing articles about many subjects. I have enjoyed my studies so much that I would love to continue teaching others what I know and how to improve their own work. Communicating with others is such an essential part of the real world, and so many people do not understand how to use this skill correctly. I strive to teach o

Having taught mostly college freshmen who took my class just to fulfill a requirement, I am empathetic to the fact that all students have a subject that they do not enjoy. Therefore, I try to be as encouraging and patient as possible, making it clear that I am supportive and willing to help. When working individually with students, I always make a point of drawing attention to what they are doing correctly or even very well before moving into points of constructive criticism. I've had many students tell me in the past that they were never able to do well in English classes, but now have an appreciation for how each of them can use language to achieve goals. I am a writer of both fiction and nonfiction and have pursued my passion for English by spending the last eight years in higher education. I hold a B.A. in professional writing and creative writing, as well as an M.F.A. in creativ

As a recipient of an MA degree in English from KSU, I intend to return to school in the fall to persue a MS degree as a K-12 Intervention Specialist to help high risk students in public schools. As a Tutor at the KSU Writing Center, I assisted various undergraduate and graduate students through the process of writing essays and research papers. As a Tutor for Club Z! In-Home Tutoring Services, I have worked one-on-one with students from grades 1-8 with improving their reading and math skills. After completing the required 25 hour bi-weekly tutoring sessions, every one of my students have achieved a math and/or reading assessment level of at least one grade level or higher than the level at which they initially performed. I am patient, thorough, and respectful of all my students. I make a concerted effort to tailor my teaching style to the needs, interests, and strenghts of each student.
