Teaching with Passion!

I have four years of experience tutoring students K-12 in English, Science, Writing, Religion, Reading, Psychology, and beyond. In addition, I have two years of experience helping high school and college level students in test preparation and professional writing skills, in which I teach essential aspects of writing a professional style paper and teaching students the necessary strategies and skills to prepare them for anything from an English test to a Graduate Placement Exam.
I believe that every individual has gifts, talents, and learning styles unique to them, so I challenge and motivate my students to meet their highest potential as independent thinkers. I have found this to be the most effective method for students in learning the subject best, being engaged in sessions, and gaining the confidence to solve tough problems and tackle challenging assignments on their own.

Education Should Be An Experience!

I have been teaching at the University, Community College, High School, and Middle School levels for over twenty years now. My experience has been diverse and has been in front of diverse students. Your age, gender, ethnicity, nationality, religious persuasion, etc. are what make you so unique and what I find exciting in teaching/tutoring you! Throughout these past two decades, I have encountered so many different types of thinkers, learners, people, etc., and I consider each experience to have been a mutually rewarding and educational time (After all, we are lifelong learners, who should find growth in everything in which we engage.). Accordingly, I have enjoyed teaching a wide array of courses. which make me capable of tutoring several content areas. In literature, I have taught classes in World, American, and British Lit; additionally, I have taught genre specific courses in p ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of a writing and publishing Masters program at DePaul, I learned and practiced the art of writing in many genres including Non-Fiction, Poetry, Travel Writing, and others. I also took a course on Teaching Literature, where I learned about pedagogy and what it takes to teach literature to students. Throughout my undergraduate and graduate years of schooling, I have taken many classes that helped me work on my writing skill and production. I also spent two summers as an Instructor for a writing camp working with campers from ages 9-14; I ran a classroom where I created unique lesson plans each week in order to engage the campers in writing activities while keeping it fun in a summer camp setting.
I love working with younger people who have a passion for writing. From a young age I enjoyed writing and because I have invested time in learning about and working on my writi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe a good instructor does not force students to become good at data recall, nor does he/she simply lord knowledge over the students and assume an ivory tower or bully pulpit mentality. Learning is an active process, one in which the student must be intimately involved. My methods draw on a relationship with the students that identifies their strengths and weaknesses, and uses each to improve the other. My goal is to make students effective at identifying what helps them learn best, so that they can become ACTIVE in the learning process.
In my undergraduate studies, I volunteered as a high school athletics coach and took advantage of opportunities to lead college lectures in History, American Literature, and Philosophy. As a graduate student I continued this passion as a volunteer teacher at Community High School in Ann Arbor; there, I used my experience in athletics as a vol ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

To me, there is nothing more gratifying than achieving the "aha" moment when a child or adult understands a concept and can put it into practice. Because there is no single path to arriving at that moment, I believe it is necessary to understand how a student best learns and then tailor my tutoring to his or her learning style. My first priority is to to act as a detective to ask questions to determine how a student responds to various teaching styles. I also try to discover a student's interests so they can be incorporated into lesson plans. I believe that building a student's confidence is as important as teaching skills.
My professional career has centered on writing, first as a reporter/editor and then in corporate public affairs, internal communications and marketing communications. Even as a writer, I was drawn to teaching others how to communicate effectively and conducted i ... read more

I have been working in South Lyon Community Schools as a French/English teacher for the past three years. I have hands-on classroom experience with creating lessons, assigning homework, correcting student work, and managing classroom behavior
I try to incorporate all types of learning styles in my teaching. I do direct instruction with guided notes, as well as a variety of different activities to help visual and auditory learners. I believe all students are capable when give the right tools to be successful. I think that by having high expectations of students and sowing them exactly what is expected of them, they can achieve.
