Learning is fun. I promise!

I studied Political Science, Psychology, Literature, and Creative Writing at Boston University. I have extensive research experience and am a skilled editor and proofreader. High School AP exams are easy if you know your material! I took the exams in the following categories with scores of 4s and 5s: Literature, Psychology, Composition, European History, and American History. I tutored elementary students in math and reading for a community service program during my time in Boston and still edit research papers for friends and acquaintances.
I approach teaching creatively and encourage a student's involvement when creating their lesson plans. My background in psychology provides a unique perspective on effective teaching techniques for different personality types. Everyone learns differently and teaching should reflect this principle.

Certified Teacher with Years of Experience!

I am very encouraging and positive. I will always tall a student what they are doing well before telling them what needs improvement. However, I will be honest and push students to achieve more then they think they can.
My expertise is teaching writing. If you need help with college applications, excelling in a writing intensive class, or just want to improve your writing skills, I can definitely help you. I taught in California for 7 years, and now I have been teaching in North Carolina for 8 years. I have taught 5-8th grade, but I am certified to teach English up to 12th grade. I have taught math, science and language arts and am certified to teach multiple subjects at the k-6 level.

Composition is one of my top subjects!

I am a retired college English professor who taught several college transfer courses at the community college level. I also worked as a tutor for several years at the college. I hold a master's degree in Creative Writing and English Literature. My undergraduate degree is in Speech Correction. Currently, I am writing screenplays and making short films.
Because I have been teaching since the 1970s, I have extensive experience in several teaching styles and have a creative sensibility. I prefer to assess the student before making a determination as to the choice of learning strategies. I work well in a one-on-one approach.

LANGUAGE ARTS TUTOR & BEGINNER PIANO INSTRUCTOR

I prefer to focus on the student's strengths while growing them in their weaknesses. I fully believe every individual has the ability to succeed with hard-work and dedication. Therefore, I do my best to bring out their desire for excellence through encouraging them in the area in which they excel. In addition, I constructively discuss the more challenged areas of their work, as well.
I have always excelled in the realm of Language Arts and Music. I received my Bachelor's degree from Full Sail University and graduated with a GPA of 3.9, as well. I have 3 years of combined tutoring experience in a variety of subjects, but primarily in the field of Language Arts. I have tutored with New Hanover County Schools for several years, as well. I work with a variety of age groups ranging from the elementary to high school age level.

I have been working with Children if all ages. My career started as a preschool and Private Kindergarten teacher which lead to a Director position.

As a mother of three teenagers, i decided to go back to school and fulfill my lifelong dream of becoming a high school English teacher. I could not imagine myself doing anything but helping young minds grow to their fullest potential. I am highly qualified in the area of writing. My 10th grade students have an 85% proficiency rating for the NC writing assessment. I also teach Graduation Project that requires an 8-10 page documented research paper. My skills in these areas will prove highly useful in a tutoring capacity.
Being a mother of teenagers gives me an edge as a teacher. I have tremendous patience and understanding of the daily lives of young people. I try to make my students feel comfortable and safe in my classroom, if a student does not feel comfortable, they will find it hard to open up to a learning environment. My philosophy is learning does not have to be painful.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have completed all courses for my Associates Degree and was a trainer at my previous position. When in high school, I was a college preparatory student and graduated with a high school Diploma as well as 12 Advanced Placement courses and completed my International Baccalaureate diploma.
I love teaching all grades and levels. The most important aspect of teaching is to know your student. Each individual learns in different ways, some are tactile learners, some are visual, and some are auditory learners. Incorporating all aspects into my teaching style assists the retention of the material. It also has to be relatable to the student, so we have to use relevant examples that they understand. All children can learn any subject if you can spark their interest. There is no better feeling than seeing the light turn on and the sense of accomplishment in a child's eyes.
