My comments on tutoring Language Arts : I received a BA in English from The College of New Jersey, and afterwards worked for several years as a freelance contributor to a number of newspapers (especially Pioneer Press, a network of Chicago-area community papers) and magazines (especially Hybrid Magazine, an online music publication).

Hello! My name is Dan, and I am an intermediate-level chess player who has four years of experience teaching chess to beginning students, and also an English teacher with six-plus years of experience teaching ESL in Taiwan. I am very passionate about my teaching and love to share what I've learned with my students! I have been playing chess for about six years, and have studied the game seriously for most of that time. I have raised my skill level to roughly 1500, and am very confident teaching the basics of the game to beginning players. I play regularly in chess tournaments and am very passionate about learning and growing, as a teacher as well as a player. I have had experience as a writer and editor, and am qualified to teach various aspects of writing, reading, and English. I graduated from The College of New Jersey in 2003 with a degree in English, and my studies were prim ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelors in English from Dominican University. I began A Plus Master Tutoring Center over 4 years ago and was teaching in my home. Now we have expanded to a center in Oak Park and we tutor all ages, from Pre-K to adults. Our subjects range from phonics to algebra. Our teaching styles vary from a 3:1 ratio, which would include up to three students and one tutor, or a 1:1 ratio which would be a private session with a student and a tutor. Session prices range from $25-$27 depending on the type of session. We pride ourselves in being an affordable tutoring center compared with the prices of Huntington and Sylvan learning centers. Our tutoring center works with all types of children and we are proud of the work we put forth.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have just recently graduated with a Learning Behavioral Specialist degree from Illinois State University. I will be starting my teaching career at a High school working in a self-contained and resource classroom.Through my program at ISU I have been given a variety of strategies including for subjects as well as behavior management that I feel has allowed me to be successful in the classroom.

Special Education Teacher/Reading Specialist

I have been a special education teacher for 12 years. I recently received my Master of Arts in reading instruction degree. I have had a lot of success teaching students how to read. An example of this is: I started working, for 600 hrs (pull-out and push-in) a week, with a 2nd grade student at the end of January 2007. When I began working with him, he could only read 13 words. By the end of May, he knew 49 words
My teaching style is to find out what works best for the student and to use it that way.

Language Arts is one of my top subjects! In both school and work I have relied on advanced skill levels in writing and communication. As a substitute teacher and tutor, I have been able to enhance students' ability to express themselves. Additionally I have received training for instruction in this area in my pursuit of a K-8 teaching license.

My teaching style emphasizes intuition and adaptability to ensure a good fit between teaching and learning styles. Equal emphasis is placed on learning current material and the confidence for future learning. Teaching methods will vary depending on the skills, interests, and temperaments of each student.
Experience overview: 5-years experience as a substitute teacher, worked as a tutor for one year, volunteered to assist teachers in the classroom, and is in studying to become a licensed elementary teacher. Details I am currently in my fifth year of substitute teaching. The students have come from a wide variety of backgrounds and with varying degree of academic skills.

Reading Tutor

I enjoy making learning fun and try to find different ways to teach the material so that it is enjoyable for children.
For four years I have worked as a Reading Specialist Assistant. I helped Kindergarten through fourth grade students learn to read. K-1st, I helped these students achieve the basic foundation of letter sounds to create new words. We also worked on fluency, expression and gaining reading speed. 2nd-4th, I helped these students comprehend the reading material and converse about various reading topics to engage their interest.

A Little Bit About Me...

The prompt for this box (TEACHING STYLE) is ascinine in and of itself: tutoring-style is what it should read. And, please, forgive me, but either a tutor achieves results or a tutor does not.
I carry diplomas (and who really cares?) from Northern Illinois University in both Political Philosophy and English Literature, yada-yada-yada, and so on and so forth, etcetera, etcetera (graduated 2006). I have written two full-length novels that your children, most likely, will someday be required to read by some god-forsaken English teacher who does not believe in 'fun'. I could, of course, sit here, all day, listing all the reasons why you, or your child, should choose 'me' to guide them through life, and if not through life, then, at the very least, through whichever course they will most likely fail otherwise. Furthermore, and in spite of the fact that I do not understand this most bothe ... read more
