My comments on tutoring Composition : Because of my B.A. in English, I consider myself to be quite experienced in composition. The only reason I would not call myself an expert is because it seems school systems frequently change the types of essays they require students to write, and it is difficult to keep up. For example, it is my underdanding that the "five paragraph essay" is no longer used to assess student writing at the high school level.

I have extensive experience both locally and abroad teaching ESL. I taught in Korea for two years before working at a local ESL school. Within these two positions, I taught ages 5 through adult. Seven years ago, I became a certified teacher in Georgia and have been teaching ESOL in public schools since then. I have published about a dozen poems and one short story. Currently, I am working on my third novel and am looking for an agent. My forte as a teacher is discovering what a student is trying to convey in his/her writing. Para los que no hablan ingles, soy bilingue. Aunque puedo decir esto, me espanol no es perfecto.
I enjoy humor where appropriate and am very patient with students who need time to understand concepts that are new to them.

Never stop learning!

I truly believe the strength of my teaching/ tutoring style is my devout compassion. I am able to exemplify extreme focus, patience, motivation and due diligence because I ultimately care about the success of the students I tutor. My initial step in the tutoring process is to perform a thorough analysis of the students comprehension of the subject. Once I'm aware what the student understands and don't understand a unique and proper game plan is developed to reach a confident grasp of course material.
I grasped the importance of education at a very young age and excelled throughout school. Early in my youth I also developed a sincere passion for helping fellow classmates who I saw were having difficulties comprehending course material. I had a knack for connecting with students, identifying the point of confusion, and creating different avenues to reach full comprehension of a su ... read more
