My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Work with grades 4+ through adult on Critical Reading, Comprehension, Reader Response, SAT Reading

Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University. I have extensive experience teaching at the adult level and enjoy working with adult learners. Currently I am a private consultant with a focus on reading and learning - particularly learners with special needs.
I am a learner-centered instructor. When working with an individual I try to understand his or her learning approaches and needs. I believe that I work well with alternative learners and with young adults who may be disaffected with conventional educational methods. I particularly enjoy working with adults and feel that I often learn so much more from them than what I am able to offer. When working with adult learners I respect that their personal lives and nee ... read more

Dedicated Learner Wishing to Help Others

Because of law school, I teach mostly by asking questions. This enables students to feel proud of figuring things out on their own. Unlike my law school professors, however, I am sweet and nurturing.
I tutored students throughout law school in various subjects including, but not limited to, writing. Since opening my own legal writing, researching and editing business, I have assisted attorneys and lay people develop their own writing skills. I am a clasically trained actress who performed in several off Broadway shows in New York City. Although I majored in theatre performance, I excelled in creative writing, with an emphasis on poetry. In high school, I placed out of college English, enabling me to take nothing but creative writing classes. I am a grammar and punctuation nazi with excellent reading comprehension skills. I excel at testing. As an actress/attorney, I have become ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Being able to teach my students how to identify the main idea and find the details that support it and to highlight them or net them on a separate piece of paper.

My students enjoy coming to lessons with Ms. Sharon. I make them feel comfortable, and always encourage them to ask me questions. I always ask them if their was something that they had in the classroom that they didn't understand, and they are not inhibited to tell me so. They know I will not judge them on that, I am just inquiring to help them out so that when they go back into the classroom they will understand what is going on. I want to make their classroom experience as pleasant as possbile. So with lots of repetition and encouragement they will not find it so hard in the class.

Expert at finding the solution to help you or your child!

I work at the corporate office for Owl Tutors. We help match students to the perfect tutor in the South Florida area. Our tutors have been tutoring for many years and work with elementary through college students. Helping people and seeing them learn motivate students and is why they love with they do. They are extremely patient and willing to do what it takes to ensure you learn the material, as opposed to just passing exams.
Our tutors are trained to be able to relate problems to the real world, making them concrete and simple. For example, a question may ask what is 7 times 25? This problem is abstract and challenging to some people. Thus, I rephrase it to, "If you have 7 quarters in your pocket, how much money do you have?" By making the problem more relatable to the student, the problem suddenly appears easier and less intimidating. Our tutors go through training on how to ass ... read more

Teacher, Tutor, Editor, Study Coach

I love teaching and learning! I have degrees in English and law, and have over ten years' experience teaching and tutoring in many subjects. I enjoy teaching students at all levels, from struggling learners to second language learners to doctoral candidates. My forte is research and writing, and I am familiar with APA, MLA, and Bluebook format. I can take a good paper and make it great! I work as a teacher and tutor at Lynn University's Writing Center.
I tailor my teaching style to individual needs. I like to use Powerpoints, interactive quizzes, and online resources such as quiz flash cards to enhance my tutoring, and if I notice an area of weakness I will find exercises to address the problem. I can also help with study skills.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : See comments on English

I have been teaching many years, and I make sure I keep very much up to date with the teaching styles and ideas in use today, I have bona fide references available from students and their parents, (past and present) to show prospective students. I have worked with students for whom English is a second (or third or fourth) language). I have worked very successfully with students who have had a learning disability or physical or emotional or mental problem of some kind. I apply my teaching expertise and ideas to academics as well as music. All my students tell me that they can tell that I love teaching, by the way I work with them.
I am gentle, yet demanding. I am soft, but strict. I use humor to keep my students interested and in focus. I teach, but I also listen and watch for signals from my students in order to know if they understand or need more explanation. I develop ... read more

If its English related, I'm your girl!

I've always excelled in English and writing. I've taken numerous courses for writing, creative writing, fictional writing, poetry ect. I have an associates degree in Journalism, and I'm currently going to school for a bachelors in Supervision Management. I will be pursuing a Masters in Journalism. I currently tutor my little sister, she's on her way to 1st grade, but I've helped her with simple math problems, showing her little tricks, just trying to make it a little easier for her.
I find out what it is specifically the child needs help with, and go from there.
