• Drafted and edited correspondence, reports, and materials for company website. • Created presentations for two East Central Writing Conventions, where I spoke with a team to universities across the Midwest. • Trained new employees at Indiana Wesleyan University Writing Center. • Led and developed writing workshops for over 80 students each semester with a team. • Published in Indiana Wesleyan University’s literary magazine, Caesura, and LIVE Bible. • Completed an internship with writer and editor, Kelli Trujillo, in 2007 where I helped research for her book, The Busy Mom’s Guide to Spiritual Survival. I tend to take a non-directive approach in which I enjoy teaching a student certain topics and providing examples, then allowing them to create their own paper or project using the tools given to them.

I have a very enthusiastic teaching style. I try to get to know my students well and use various methods to engage them in the subject area we are studying. I worked as a tutor in college, and I taught some groups of children Spanish and French while in college. After graduating from college, I taught for 4 years, grades 7-12. Also, I worked as a graduate assistant at Indiana State University and taught college freshmen. I homeschooled my own children for several years, and now I work as a literacy assistant in an elementary school.

I'm a graduated student from Purdue University with a BS in Speech Pathology and Audiology (SLHS). Between my time in both high school and college, my GPA never dropped below a 3.0. Both settings of education included years of math and science, and in high school four years of writing, English, and history. Volunteer work has been essential since high school, helping teachers, the elderly, disabled, and churches. I also have leadership skills as an assistant editor to a high school magazine as well as an officer for a leadership group for minority and international students.

In 2011 to 2012 I worked as a lead tutor for Academic Achievers in Muncie. My core focus was to improve writing skills. I would help students organize their thoughts into a structured document, and on occasion I would help build their vocabulary with five words of the week. Currently, I work at the Muncie Children's Museum where I create programs for children to exercise their motor and critical thinking skills in the visual arts and music. I teach according to the student's learning style. I acknowledge that all students learn differently, and I excel at catering to visual, aural, and kinesthetic needs of students.

Learning must be fun, especially in a tutoring context. In my previous tutoring experiences, I always attempted to turn tasks into games or opportunities for creative expression. For example, multiplication tables can become an opportunity to play a relay game. Learning different parts of speech can be made enjoyable by creating an imaginative story. My particular interest is helping children develop a passion for creative writing and reading. These were essential elements of my own childhood and my development as a writer, and I'm excited to share this experience with others. After graduating with honors from Grove City College, I took a position as a writer for a large nonprofit organization in Washington, DC. While working as a professional writer, I dedicated my free time to tutoring at a center for urban kids.

Teaching is the solemn devotion to a writer's voice. I believe in inspiring young students to write from their hearts, with a keen interest in being grammatically correct. My goal is to empower students to achieve in the classroom, in test-taking, in their every day lives. Patience and understanding is the key to tutoring; I have that patience and I understand what it is to be a tutored student. I will create a comfortable environment for all students to achieve their dreams. By working in a wide variety of fields, from film production to politics, I have a breadth of knowledge from working with many different types of students. I was once a student being tutored for the GRE, so I have been on each side of the desk. For two years I taught workshops on public speaking and speech writing. Before that I earned my Bachelor's degree in Writing, and had to do so through intimate writing worksh

I love teaching and interacting with children of all ages. I believe that every child is unique, and, as such, every child has a specific learning style. As a tutor, I will seek to teach your child in a manner that fulfills his or her needs. I am a patient, friendly, and thoughtful person, and I feel that those characteristics are essential when educating children. These are the qualities that produce a comfortable learning environment, and if a child is not comfortable, they will not be able to reach their academic potential. I look forward to enriching your child’s love of learning. As a student at Earlham College, a liberal arts institution, I had the opportunity to participate in a wide range of academic experiences. As an English major, I have acquired extensive grammatical skills as a result of writing numerous essays analyzing various types of prose. My study of Spanish was also q

When you learn to play the piano, first you are taught the scales, which you practice over and over and over again. Then you learn pieces of music, with specific counts and phrasing. Finally, once you have all the rules in your back pocket, you can evolve into a jazz artist who seemingly leaves the rules behind. It is the same with language. You first learn and practice the basic components – reading, vocabulary, grammar, usage, three-paragraph themes, etc. Then you find yourself able to experiment with word choice and metaphor. In the process you develop your own unique voice. My goal is to teach the rules and nuances of language, so my students can present their thoughts effectively, respectfully and confidently. I first taught when I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Yemen. I had just graduated with an English degree and a teaching certificate, and I taught English to Yemeni men
