Language Arts Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help

I am a patient, conscientious and dedicated mentor who is skilled at helping struggling students to become successful and good students to excel. I especially love seeing students who previously found a subject to be daunting gain new confidence and realize they have untapped and unknown abilities in the subject that can lead them to find it enjoyable and achieve their academic goals. I will help nurture an atmosphere conducive to effective study and help you with your organizational skills if needed, so that your time on your own will be more productive. As a tutor I care about your progress and will work hard to help you with whatever you need.

I have extensive experience working with students of all ages, from elementary school through junior college. As a parent volunteer, I tutored K-6 students in math and reading. As a Learning Center and Basic Skills instructor at Trinidad State Junior College, I taught classes in math and English, and I worked individually with students on a variety of subjects including study skills, spelling, history, math, and English. For the past several years, I have owned a small business that employed teenagers. I both developed and administered the training for these first-time employees. I have also taught dance to children and adults. I hold an inactive Texas Teaching Certificate with English and history endorsements, and I am in the process of becoming a certified teacher in Colorado.

Back to basics and always make it relevant in today's world. I think learning is a great form of instant gratification. It doesn't always need to be boring, but is sometimes hard work. I am a great motivator and believe in powering through until they get it. I don't give up or leave because my hour is over. My job isn't done until your student learns what was intended that day. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Sometimes tasks seem so large to students that they become overwhelmed. I'm glad to take the time, and break it down into smaller parts which become the whole.

During my years teaching English literature, at The University of British Columbia in Vancouver Canada, I quickly discovered that the most rewarding and effective moments between student and instructor occur in one-to-one meetings. The tutoring environment is the ideal classroom, where a single student’s learning needs, academic desires and questions can be fully catered to, fulfilled and explored. I have worked with first-year university students, middle school students, all levels of high school students, and older adults. My advanced education, extensive experience, sincere respect for my students, and genuine love and enthusiasm for literature and learning make me an effective and valuable educator. I possess both a Master's degree and a BA in English literature, with a minor degree in History; and as the only member of my immediate family to have earned a college degree, I

As an educator in the public sector, I recognize the growing gap in education. I also understand the pressure put on teacher's and the lack of time to get student's to where they need to be. It is imperative that students have the opportunity to be provided with academic assistance that is relative to what is needed to progress through school and life. With over twelve years of experience, a Masters in Business, and a Specializing in Educational leadership, I have the qualities that is needed for students achieve academic success.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter.
