My comments on tutoring Writing : I encourage students to start writing in English and can take them to the next level.

I have over ten years experience teaching ESOL. I help my students to overcome their fear of speaking English through encouraging classes and a range of teaching methods. One of my students said, "I was afraid to speak with people...in the end I lost that fear. I felt comfortable in your lessons. Thank you, thank you, thank!" My students have fun and work hard. My students improve their pronunciation, grammar usage, and fluency.

Patient and Supportive, but always Persistent

I am patient and supportive, but persistent. Each student's mind works differently, and I work tirelessly to find the best way to present material to every child or adult. I have a varied background, not just in the academic world, and I feel I can find the right way to relate to each individual. I try to be somewhat informal, but I recognize the times when a little extra emphasis on the need to really concentrate is necessary.
I have logged over 5,000 hours of tutoring in the last four years. I have worked for a game company, which taught me how to approach tests as a contest between student and test-maker, and my extensive background as a writer gives me practical experience when it comes to teaching English and related subjects. My competence in math has always been obvious, as my 796 score (maximum 800) on the math SAT will attest. But most important: I love to teach any child ... read more

Helping your child become a successful reader is my passion!

I am a former special ed teacher with a special certification in teaching dyslexicsI have been retired for a number of years.I live in North Kingstown, Rhode Island . I have been tutoring for the past 10 years, And it is truly my joy to watch students succeed with this method I use.I Specialize in the Orton gillingham method of teaching phonics and reading..I tutor in person and online as well. I have many references available at your request.
There is nothing more rewarding to me than helping children learn to read. The method I use is tried and true and I have many successful students who have gone on to be very strong readers.Reading is the basis of all learning, therefore helping a young child learn to read is essential for future success.The Orton gillingham method is very specific and teaches all the basics of phonics and uses a unique audio visual and kinetic approach

Iam patient and understanding. I work at a pace that works with each individual student.I praise the student when they try their best and make them feel important. I try to make them realize they are important and can achieve anything they want by working hard and practicing at all times
