My comments on tutoring Journalism : This was my major in college.... strong skills due to marketing career.

I try to make things more interesting with activities and significant interaction, avoiding just talking at my students. Engaging would be my style.
I have extensive experience in writing/composition from years in marketing and public relations. Although I do not have my permanent teaching certification, I have extensive experience in teaching English/Language Arts and literature to middle school and high school students and have other teaching experience at the university level.

I have a son who was born with neurofibromatosis is accompanied by a learning disability. My son is now 18 and in his last year of High School. He has been in special education courses since 2nd grade once being diagnosed with his learning challenges. He has had an active IEP since that time and I have worked very closedly with him throughout his school years. I have worked with him on every subject, every project, and encouraged him along the way. Due to his learning and physical disabilities, he has very low self esteem and this causes him to rebel during most homework sessions. It has been a true challenge, but very rewarding when I see him succeed, passing a test, knowing new words, etc..
My son, as I stated earlier can be rebellious, so I have to be very patient with him and always stay positive. I constantly tell him how smart he is, how well he is doing, and I always ... read more

My style is simple and direct. My experience suggests that all students can learn if the teacher can find some common interest point to get the ball rolling. My students are encouraged to be creative in their problem solving. I try to utilize as many age appropriate real life examples to make the learning more engaging and relevant to the subject at hand.
As a lifelong learner, I took on the challenge to complete my Bachelors and Masters degree after working as a professional musician for 15 years. My earlier undergraduate work combined music with a broadcast journalism minor. I have used those skills to write, as well as produce music , videos and edit for television. As a classroom music teacher and administrator, I used computer technology and the arts to teach reading, writing and math. During the past seven years, I have been a community mentor who tutored school age students ... read more

I am patient, thorough, and respectful of all my students. I make a concerted effort to tailor my teaching style to the needs, interests, and strenghts of each student. I truly believe that each student has the ability to discover, learn, and build upon the skills they already possess through guided tutoring. I also believe that each student deserves constructive criticism and rewards for efforts and goals achieved. It is my personal goal to ensure that each of my students, as they travel through their academic and professional careers, remembers the goals and skills they have developed with my assistance, and how those skills have helped them throughout their academic and personal development.

I believe that an often overlooked quality in teaching is the ability to communicate. As a communication major, with training in associating with all types of people, I am not an academic who would confuse the student. I am a problem solver and can easily adapt to any type of learner. For me, history is undervalued by today's students and I would do my part to ensure that past events and their meanings are explained to your child in a clear, accurate manner. Children need somebody willing to listen to them and someone willing to be patient with their abilities. I feel I would excel at both and want to help make a difference in their lives and help them gain perspective.
As a communication major, to go along with my secondary major in history, my strengths lie in the ability to effectively engage with the student to give them a better understanding of history by speaking to them in ... read more

Having taught mostly college freshmen who took my class just to fulfill a requirement, I am empathetic to the fact that all students have a subject that they do not enjoy. Therefore, I try to be as encouraging and patient as possible, making it clear that I am supportive and willing to help. When working individually with students, I always make a point of drawing attention to what they are doing correctly or even very well before moving into points of constructive criticism. I've had many students tell me in the past that they were never able to do well in English classes, but now have an appreciation for how each of them can use language to achieve goals.
I am a writer of both fiction and nonfiction and have pursued my passion for English by spending the last eight years in higher education. I hold a B.A. in professional writing and creative writing, as well as an M.F.A. in c ... read more

In May of 2009, I graduate from Kent State University with a BA in English and The Writing Minor certification. As a college student, I took many courses highlighting grammar structure and the writing styles of APA and MLA. As a student, I held part time jobs as a nanny for three children and a high school athletic coach for Gilmour Academy. In these positions I was able to learn the most efficient ways to work with elementary level children and teenagers preparing for college. My role as a nanny allowed me time to help with after school activities and homework assignments, as well as teaching the youngest to read and spell.
I believe that every child has the ability to be academically great given the right amount of individual time and guidance. An individual's potential has no limits and is always attainable if hard work is present. I believe in firm, but positive reinforce ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Striving to make the student feel comfortable is part of my basic repertoire of teaching strategies. I know that when a student does not succeed in a typical classroom environment it is easy for the student to feel negative about learning. Our society is based on the 'cookie cutter' ideology one size fits all. So when I tutor I strive for the student to feel comfortable first. Then I observe the students way of learning and I tailor my style to fit the student. Each student has one to two modalities that they excel in when learning something new - my job is to discover which modalities best serves the student's style of learning.
Tutoring students is a big part of teaching. I have always tutored students in my classes and anyone who has asked for my help. I have tutored students on their writing, reading and basic math skills. Being a Special Education teacher has afforded ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After earning a BA in Creative Writing and a BA in English at Oberlin Colege, I taught for a year as a substitute within the Cleveland Municipal School District. After that, I worked for two years as a tutor with the Tutoring Club in Westlake. I primarily assisted high school students with SAT and ACT prep courses. My specialties were writing and English. I've also worked with helping middle school and high school students develop effective study skills and coming up with a good strategies for tackling homework.
To me, the most important thing is to be a good listener. I usually like to spend the first 5 to 10 minutes with a new student just chatting about their academic life and their study habits. That gives me a good sense of where they are, what areas they will likely be strong in and what areas where they will likely need further development. It also helps the student feel mor ... read more

My teaching style is a “hands on” approach. I like to find out what the student already knows about the subject. I then like to fill in the missing links for the student in a fun, and interactive manner. I discuss any questions that the student has about the material after the initial information is given. I complete the process by going over examples and looking at work that they have completed in the past to show he student how to employ the skills that I taught during the lesson.
As an English tutor for the Kent State Writing Commons for four years, I was able to work with a wide variety of students. I enjoyed working with everyone from new entering freshmen to doctoral students. I also worked people in different educational backgrounds and people who were culturally diverse. English as a Second Language (ESL) students were also apart of my daily tutoring regimen. I also have a ... read more

Coming from a Hungarian background, I have always been in tune to language and I have been influenced in many ways by my mother, a native of Hungary, and teachers throughout the years. I have had access to the best reading and writing education, leading me to feel a strong connection to the mechanics of speech and teaching others those principles. I hold a bachelor's degree in English from Ohio University, and I volunteered as a literacy tutor and copy editor/reporter for The Post, a newspaper on campus. As an editorial intern for Cleveland Magazine, I have enjoyed writing articles about many subjects. I have enjoyed my studies so much that I would love to continue teaching others what I know and how to improve their own work.
Communicating with others is such an essential part of the real world, and so many people do not understand how to use this skill correctly. I strive to t ... read more
