I prefer a style that empowers the students to take ownership of their work so they will become better thinkers and writers. I prefer discussion-based learning opposed to "lecture-style" teaching where I can interact freely with the student as a peer-tutor. More specifically, I like to use white boards and visual aids in sessions. I have worked in Cedarville University's Writing Center as a tutor for two years. As a tutor, I conducted one-on-one sessions with college-age students to help them improve their writing and critical thinking skills. I also led several workshops on various skills required for college-level writing, such as "How to write a historical/biographical analysis" and "How to write a Marxist analysis." In addition, in training for my tutorship, I wrote a research paper on how to tutor various types of LD students, focusing on students with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, and variou

Hi! I am a sophomore in high school and I love tutoring kids! I've done some tutoring before in my neighborhood, and at my school. They all seem to like my teaching style and all of the students I've tutored have reported better results. I do tutoring mainly because I love helping people and seeing them succeed under my guidance. Please reach out to me if you're interested! I usually teach by reviewing the lesson that kids don't understand, but I'm open to changing my style according to each type of student!
