Professional journalist and magazine writer

Professional journalist and magazine writer with experience writing for numerous national publications and large newspapers, including US News & World Report, The Miami Herald and the Columbia Journalism Review. I've also served as the editor of local newspapers in Florida and New York. Clear, concise writing is my life's work. I have experience with several elementary reading programs, including intensive phonics programs like the Riggs Institute's 'Writing and Spelling Road to Reading and Thinking' that can be used to help students who are not reading at grade level.
I start with high expectations for the student, and believe in the importance of explaining to the student what is to be accomplished during the lesson. We then proceed logically through the lesson, taking the student from his level to a much higher level of skill and understanding over a short period of time.

Teacher, Tutor, Editor, Study Coach

I love teaching and learning! I have degrees in English and law, and have over ten years' experience teaching and tutoring in many subjects. I enjoy teaching students at all levels, from struggling learners to second language learners to doctoral candidates. My forte is research and writing, and I am familiar with APA, MLA, and Bluebook format. I can take a good paper and make it great! I work as a teacher and tutor at Lynn University's Writing Center.
I tailor my teaching style to individual needs. I like to use Powerpoints, interactive quizzes, and online resources such as quiz flash cards to enhance my tutoring, and if I notice an area of weakness I will find exercises to address the problem. I can also help with study skills.

PARENTS - I 'M HERE TO HELP YOU WITH ONLINE LEARNING

I am a learner-centered instructor. When working with an individual I try to understand his or her learning approaches and needs. I believe that I work well with alternative learners and with young adults who may be disaffected with conventional educational methods. I particularly enjoy working with adults and feel that I often learn so much more from them than what I am able to offer. When working with adult learners I respect that their personal lives and needs may intersect with our instructional time. Frequently I will incorporate whatever is going on in their lives into our current "curriculum."
Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University. I have extensive experience teaching at the adult level and enjoy working ... read more

FLORIDA ATLANTIC UNIVERSITY TUTOR (K-12) mdonasci@fau.edu

Business student at Florida Atlantic University. I graduated from A.W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts with honors in the visual arts, specializing in Architecture and Mathematics. I have also tutored for 4 years now while in school by teaching a wide variety of subjects to students from the ages of 5-20.
I use a Reciprocal/Practice based tutoring style. This an effective method because it allows me to interact with the student and help them grow more efficiently while holding an open discussion environment in each lesson. I then reinforce it with practice based assignments which are followed up with reviews in the beginning of the following class. This makes the student not only memorize definitions, but to also understand the reasoning behind different concepts.

My comments on tutoring Literature : I love reading and I work hard to cause my students to love reading. Reading is a way for us to leave ourselves, and join another character, someplace, anyplace and live in his or her world for a time. What an escape mechanism reading is. No drugs, alcohol or tobacco needed -- just words. And I teach students to enjoy, no, to love the words that other folks have written to make us think, feel, wonder and learn.

I am gentle, yet demanding. I am soft, but strict. I use humor to keep my students interested and in focus. I teach, but I also listen and watch for signals from my students in order to know if they understand or need more explanation. I develop a bond with my students regardless of the students'age which allows us, as a "team" to move together toward success. I believe that every student can learn -- some just learn faster than others, or easier than others, and it is my job, my privilege to help them learn how to do their very best.
I have been teaching many years, and I make sure I keep very much up to date with the teaching styles and ideas in use today, I have bona fide references available from students and their parents, (past and present) to show prospective students. I have worked with students for whom English is a second (or third or fourth) language). I have work ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I adapt my teaching style to the personalities and learning styles of my clients. There is no universal way for everyone to learn. I have experience working with students from diverse backgrounds and, as an anthropologist, am easily able to adapt my lessons to different cultural styles as well.
I began tutoring my classmates when I was in kindergarten. Throughout elementary and high school, I frequently tutored classmates and students in other grades. I began tutoring more frequently when I was working on my Master's degree several years ago because tutoring is generally very flexible, therefore allowing me adequate time to devote to my studies. Today, five terms into my PhD,I continue to tutor. I have also been working as a professional writing consultant at Florida Atlantic University since 2009, helping college students with any and every part of the writing process. I enjoy wor ... read more
