A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with teenagers, young adults and older students returning to college. I work especially well with students who have a lack of confidence about their academic or intellectual abilities. May students have told me years after taking my courses that they would not have made it to graduation without my help. I also served as a drama director at one of my colleges and produced 4 highly successful full-length plays. Ten years after one of the productions the entire cast planned a surprise reunion for me at a local restaurant. I could ask for greater 'applause' for my teaching efforts.

Happy to help you excel am patient and diligent

I tutored in my last semester of college at Westfield State University. I have taken 122 credits in psychology. My psychology G.P.A. average is 3.74 and my overall average is 3.551. I have helped students excel at college-level classes where some students were failing. I am part of the international honor society in psychology. I love helping other people. Although I only have a bachelor's degree, I have helped many students at college excel at their classes and achieve A's when they were struggling.
I usually allow the person to come to me with questions and ask me what they are struggling on and help them from their or review the basic concepts and say them out loud to the person I am tutoring. I help students go through their books and synthesize material and help students write papers and come up with proper conclusions and introductions to his or her paper.

Using one's strengths is the key to overcoming any weakness.

Is it difficult to maintain focus while studying? Do you need additional, individualized time to master a concept? Does frustration, anxiety, embarrassment, or hopelessness ever get in the way of you achieving your personal best? If so, I would like to help you achieve your best. Everyone deserves to feel proud and confident about their hard work, and every person can thrive from learning if they have the right tools to help them along. Thanks to my graduate training in clinical psychology, I have the unique ability to coach kids in emotion management, motivation, self-esteem, creative problem solving, and organization while strengthening their academic skills. The best students aren't just "good" students... they are happy, motivated, and confident students. I have a warm, friendly, and energetic personality that earns rapport with highly active, social kids as well as quieter, s ... read more

My comments on tutoring English : I have over four years of experience tutoring in college level English courses including on-line teaching in literature.

I provide resources for the students I work with to give them the tools they need to become independent learners. I encourage discussion and asking questions to open new avenues of thinking and to develop clear, organized writing. Education is only education when students participate and create!

College Undergrad Looking to Tutor English Students

While I have never conducted a formal tutoring session, I have edited the work of my peers and more recently assisted my girlfriend's younger sister with the completion of her college essay. From my experience, I have found that I prefer to work one-on-one with the student whose work I am editing. That way, I am able to explain my revisions and help them understand my reasoning behind making certain edits. I'm not, by any means, a hard-nosed individual, but I'll certainly do my best to ensure that the student learns something.
Not only was English my favorite subject as well as the one I was most proficient in in high school, it eventually became my major in college. I majored in Journalism at The University of New Hampshire, and while I have not yet received my Bachelor's of Arts from the institution I am a mere handful of credits away from earning it (9, to be exact), an acco ... read more
