To Help Your Child Succeed At Advancing In English Studies

Hands-on. We all learn more when we experience new things, and get to try them ourselves. Children are more engaged when there is something for the them to do to interact with the materials provided.
I was an elementary education major for 2.5 years before following my specific passion to writing and literature in my Junior year to finish up school. I graduated with a 3.35 QPA from Slippery Rock University in May of 2015! I have completed reading instructional courses in K-6th elementary education as well as courses in literature and reading assessment. I also have experience working with many high-and-low-incidence disabilities such as children who are deaf or blind, have Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorders, or Aspberger's disorders as well.

My comments on tutoring Literature : Qualified in this subject by WyzAnt. As an avid reader of classic and modern literature, I am well versed in both American and European literature. At one time I obtained a bookmark from Barnes and Noble Bookstore which listed the 100 most admired works of literature. I had read 86 of those listed.

In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly reputed language school in Vienna ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.
I have taught elementary school in private and public settings, in both New York City and Florida. I taught high school English and Global Studies in New York city. I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students. I have also helped prepare adult students for the TABE, GED, and similar tests.

If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent through her citizenship exam practice. Another was when I prepped a friend for a lifeguard exam that she had failed twice. Seeing my students of all ages succeed is a joy.
My motto is if at all possible, I want ... read more

I have a passion for systems and teaching others how to not be intimidated when learning new things. I feel that I can teach anything that I know. From teaching my grandmother how to write at the time that I was learning how to write, I have taught many people throughout my life. I am naturally a good teacher in that I can quickly assess where the student is at then I can also quickly assess how much I believe they can learn in one session. Also I am skilled in knowing how to approach a student depending on his age and background.
When it comes to learning I have always been a very curious person and that is what helps me to learn. I took a logic test at a college job fair and was recruited to work for one of the largest insurance companies in the nation with one of the largest legacy systems, written in COBOL. I learned to read code and to test code and became more proficient and ... read more

I believe with the right supports all children can learn. I have tutored students with special needs. My goal is to help the child build on their strengths and believe they can improve on their weaknesses. My teaching style is to set objectives that challenge students and support them by building on what they already know. I am extremely patient and professional and well liked by my students.
With a degree in Special Education and a Masters in Education I have learned about how children learn best. I have a Florida Teacher's License for teaching ESE (Exceptional Students Education), Spanish, Elementary Education, and other subjects. I taught in the Ocala public school system. I have terrific math skills and have taught all core courses to ESE students. I have helped older students prepare for their GED exam as well. Currently I teach Spanish online.

A Little Bit About Me...

During the completion of my Bachelor's degree in Psychology I had the opportunity to work with the Maricopa College District, as well as the No Child Left Behind Program. While working with the Maricopa College District I assisted students that were enrolled in the ACE Adult Program. These students ranged in ages from 18 to 65 years old. Additionally, I worked with Martin Porres Educational Services and the No Child Left Behind Program. During my years of tutoring I have assisted students in Psychology, Statistics, math courses up to Calculus, basic science classes, reading, English, computer courses, and nursing courses (relating to mathematics).
Not only do I love to teach and help students learn, I also enjoy helping students develop an appreciation for learning in general. The most gratifying experience while teaching is the look on a student's face, after hours of confusion, a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that any student can learn given the right environment, the appropriate tools, and a patient and caring teacher. I enjoy working with students of every age, from struggling college students to young children having difficulties with basic Math and English. There is nothing more satisfying for me as a teacher than to open the window of understanding for the students I work with, and to see the light of comprehension come into his or her eyes with every “ah-ha!” moment. I believe that successful learning is a two way process that encompasses not only what I am able to teach my students, but what I can learn from them as well to help me become a better teacher.
In 1976 I left the blue-collar world and returned to college, strongly motivated to learn. In 1980 I acquired a BA in Geography (3.81 gpa in my major, 3.53 overall), with a minor degree in Environmental Geology (3.6 g ... read more

I spent 4 years Homeschooling a number of students.I also have tutored adults in French. Teaching remains a passion in my life. I also have taken many students with me on trips to Europe.
Active participation defines my teaching style. I truly like and enjoy my students. Because of this sincerity, the students seem to enjoy it as well.

A few examples include,writing and performing skits,acting out novels and plays, assuming the roles of peritnent characters, cooking, library research projects,etc. I have not only hosted many European trips, but have arranged many cultural activities for the benefit of my students ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a constructionist; my initial step with all students is to assess "where they are," so that I will know from which level to begin the building process. Especially in a one-on-one basis, I allow the student to critique samples of my own writing/speaking; my demonstrating a willingness to accept his/her criticism seems to lay a foundation for the "give and take" of collaborative learning. Also, I seek to establish "up front" that the student has value and is capable of learning---concepts I seek to reinforce as the learning process continues.
I learned English from my mother, who taught Junior High English; she helped me grasp the rules, so that English actually "made sense" to me. I have taught English in two private schools, one parochial school, and one public school system; I have also taught Old and New Testament Survey classes at a Community College (with primarily non-tra ... read more

As a young college graduate, I am still in the mind set of studying. My main focus is in administration and training for health systems. Out of my many classes and interests in education I excelled at undergraduate seminars which is taking a block of time and teaching a specific subject to my peers. My bachelor's degree has strong focus on Math and English. My first job out of college was as a corporate trainer for a home health agency which gives me adaptability in working with many different people of all levels and ages.
There is not one teaching style that works for everyone. Making the subjects fun and exciting is a great way to get the students engaged. Everyone has different ways of learning and finding that niche will enable that student to be confident when it comes to learning anything. A student's outlook dictates how they relate to a certain subject. Breaking the mindse ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been working as a private tutor from my home or student's home for 3 years. I have tutored elementary through college level students. I am able to teach a variety of subjects, however my forte is English and Composition. I have the honor of being a published author. I am an expert in MLA or APA style writing. I have also tutored in College Algebra, elementary math, Biology, and Reading. I speak conversational French, and am able to teach up to the secondary level.
It is my belief that everyone is able to learn, and what produces that ability is having support. So many instructors give up on those not favored as "prized" students, and in turn, these students just slide through. I know it takes time and effort to get some students enthused about education, and I make it my goal to help them with this.

A Little Bit About Me...

I want to first stress that I am only an assistant on their learning journey, not the protagonist. I will not do your child's work for them, but I will make sure that they complete their assignment, and we, as a team, complete it to the best extent possible. I know that a lot of children and adults fail as students because teachers often choose their prized pupils and disregard the rest. I think this is grossly unjust, and believe everyone has the potential for greatness.
I am a graduate of North Georgia with a passion for language and literature. I have worked on projects that have been, or will soon be, published. I am a talented writer, and love helping others with their writing endeavors. I am able to read, understand, and transcribe French, however, I am not a very good "speaker".
