Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Leander, TX

I love to write during my free time. I have won contests from the articles I have previously written. I have an MBA in Marketing. I have a BA degree in Science Business Communications. I have helped children and adults with their assignments. I work mainly with Kinder through 10th grade. I help with writing, Reading, Touch Typing, Math and Science. I have helped with Marketing papers and other college assignments as needed. Every student learns differently. I have explored the many ways to teach so that children can learn. From previous teaching experience I am aware that some children are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. I teach based on the individual learning style.

I taught grades kindergarten, first grade and second grade for a total of twenty-six years. Since then, I have tutored pre-k through 5th grade. My last assignment was tutoring a fifth grader in writing composition. I have worked as a tutor with several children on their reading, spelling and math skills. I worked as a UIL coach for creative writers in second grade. To teach reading, I teach the children to use all the reading strategies used by good readers.Examples of those strategies would be sight words, visual and context clues, and phonics. Then, I prefer to use leveled readers to improve their fluency and comprehension. For writing, after assessing their composition, I work with them to improve where needed skills such as organization, elaboration, complex sentences and transitions. I use hands on materials and lots of practice to teach math.

This really depends on what the student seems to need. Some people are visual learners, others auditory, kinesthetic, etc. It is critical to ASK THE STUDENT what works for them! I've practiced law, worked in broadcasting, public relations and business. I love writing and am currently working on a libretto for a musical theatre piece. I also enjoy working with young women in a non-profit here in Austin, Texas. I love to work with creative and unusual passionate people! Also, I've taught ESL courses to adults and enjoyed meeting people from all over the world.

I've always had strong writing skills. I've written several scientific dissertations and papers to fairly high praise. I don't any paid, professional tutoring experience. However, I have volunteered my services to family members and friends. During my sophomore year, I took Organic Chemistry and excelled. However, my friends were struggling. They hated me a bit for how easy it came to me. I decided to tutor them and help them with homework assignments and studying. They ended up doing very well on the exams, allowing them to secure a 3.0 or higher in the course. I also had to regular help my classmates out with more complex problems in Physics. I was not so much tutoring as working together with them on the homework, but still, it involved clear explanation and a thorough knowledge of the subject matter. I always liked playing up my quirky personality. My favorite teachers and professo

I prefer a very laid back, informal environment when I teach. I can adapt very easily, and only require that my students respect me and try their best. I can help them with the rest I have tutored over 50 children and teens, ages 3-14, in various subjects. With my youngest students, I have helped them improve their reading comprehension and ability markedly. My older students have been teens preparing for college, and as I have done extremely well on my SATs and ACT (scores can be supplied upon request), I have been able to help them improve in that field as well.

Tutor in the Austin Area for 10 years. Vendor in 'Tutorial Services' for a State Agency for five years. Helped students from 16 to 46 get to where they need to be. Helped students to achieve their goals, and become more efficient with their time and their abilities. I have a knack of making the complicated simple. Experienced, I can easily break down subjects to their essence. Confident and charismatic, I can foster a sense of achievement and self-worth in a student who is struggling with self esteem or test anxiety issues. Familiar with subjects, I am an expert at many levels and across many disciplines. I am the total tutor, who still has much to learn himself.

See my comment on creative writing. I myself am a visual learner, but can teach in any of the major learning styles. I have tutored various friends in English, poetry, reading, grammar, biology, music, and study skills since my own school days. I am a quick learner, and a diligent student myself. I am flexible in my teaching style, and am adept at communicating clearly with audiences of all sorts. I am also quite handy at helping students understand complex concepts.

My tutoring experiences have taken on many shapes and sizes. I've tutored on subjects ranging business resume writing, college application essays, editing the written content of a PowerPoint presentation and much more. My initial foray into the tutoring sphere, so to speak began when I was brought on as a High School volunteer to lead residents of a retirement home toward a better future in computer literacy. It was there that I worked hand-to-hand with devoted residents on a weekly basis to sharpen their skills on how to navigate the web, begin using different applications, so as to produce written documents, email friends, family and/or previous work acquaintances and begin to discover the utility that the modern-day computer has. Moving off of that, in my years as a student matriculating toward a Bachelor's degree, I tutored various family members. Namely, I was responsible for ed

I love what I do. As an educational psychologist, I use a variety of techniques and tailor programs to suit the student’s learning style and level of proficiency. I have had great success teaching dyslexic students, English and Spanish as second languages, and helping prepare students for standardized tests such as the STAAR, SAT, ACT, TOEFL, and TEXES certification exams. I teach reading and writing because I am a good reader and writer, and I know how to help others develop these abilities. I also have a deep understanding of the grammatical structures of two languages, English and Spanish. I can make the most difficult grammatical concepts seem very easy to understand. Reading and writing are fun when you become skilled at them, and with my help, my students get there in no time at all. I do a great job tutoring children. I teach them by playing games, doing fun exercises, wat
