My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I have a reading endorsement on my Georgia teaching certificate.

I have taught English at the high school level for 33 years, both in public and private school. Currently, I am an instructor for a GED class. I team taught with a special education teacher for several years and encouraged the private school where I taught to hire a special education teacher at the high school level. I have taught all levels of English, from vocational English to low level students to honors students.
I particularly enjoy one-on-one teaching; I also enjoy asking students questions to draw from them the knowledge they are seeking.

I enjoy helping people of all ages understand the complex processes of our natural environment. I believe it is the role of teachers to lead their students to solutions, rather than just providing answers. I'm very patient and personable and love to help others succeed. I chose environmental science because of its interdisciplinary nature. In order to fully comprehend environmental issues, one must seek an understanding of all natural sciences, sociology, calculus, English, geography, law and policy, and many other disciplines.
I recently graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a B.S. in environmental science and a concentration in sociology and anthropology. I have served as the editorial assistant for the Applied Environmental Education and Communications journal for the last year and a half. I have also worked as a research assistant in the West Offi ... read more

The majority of my secondary education has been dominated by the manipulation of words and formulation of arguments. My studies during college, culminating in the achievement of a BA in English, have allowed me to hone my mastery of the English language. Additionally, my four semesters as a writing center consultant at the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga, gave me a degree of teaching experience and familiarity with many of the common problems students (particularly those new to writing a thesis-driven paper) encounter when doing work for writing-intensive courses.
As a writing center consultant, I was instructed not to spend much time proofreading student papers or reviewing small minutiae. Instead, my goal was to educate students about the fundamentals of writing papers, such as formulating a clear thesis and establishing a clear paragraph structure. To this end, I usuall ... read more

While earning my MA in English, I spent two years tutoring students in English and training/mentoring other tutors. For the last two years, I have been designing and delivering trianing curriculum. I have plans to return to Middle Tennessee State University in January 2012 to earn my PhD in Math and Science Education.
I love helping people, particularly children, reach their full potential by becoming life-long learners. Whenever I meet with a student, whether it be one-on-oe or in the classroom, I strive to identify his/her learning style and to create a connection to the lesson to his/her future experiences in the world beyond the classroom. I believe that education is the key to creating citizens with a sense of self-efficacy and a belief that one man or woman can make a differnce.
