Journalism is one of my top subjects! Two years staff writer for Lowell Sun. Five years freelance.

I believe in identifying where a student lies on the subject he/she is studying before going further. The advantage of one on one tutoring compared to classroom is that the lesson can be based around where the student’s strengths and weaknesses are rather than a blanket method. I also believe that the skills used in English can be best practiced and analyzed through writing rather than worksheets and tests. Therefore, I believe in having the student write on a variety of subjects and working through these pieces to show where they can improve.
I graduated from Fitchburg State University in 2009 with a Bachelor’s of Science in English and Professional Writing. I went on to become a staff writer for the Lowell Sun, a daily print publication in Lowell, Massachusetts. When I was laid off due to budget cuts, I wrote freelance for several entertainment and political publications. I a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Jan Hunter is a creative problem solver who has enjoyed two successful careers.

Jan’s media background proved a springboard to a career in public relations, working first as a communications manager for a prominent New England resort before becoming Corporate Public Relations Director at Boston advertising agency RGS&H where she supervised a range of activities such as strategy development, crisis communications, and event planning.

My comments on tutoring Journalism : News Writing, PR, and Feature writing proficiency.

I recently graduated from Gordon College with a degree in English Literature and a concentration in Creative Writing. I manage two personal blogs, which include my non-fiction stories, poetry, and artwork, and I have published 5 different articles for various Gordon journals. In high school, I took all Honors English courses, and received college credit for my English AP Exam. At Gordon College, my essay writing abilities, as well as my breadth of creative writing, rapidly developed as I typically had 3-4 writing assignments a week. Writing has become a hobby and a career path for me, and I help others write, edit, and consolidate their ideas. Courses taken include: Intro to Creative Writing Advanced Creative Writing Journalism 1: News Writing Journalism 2: Feature Writing The Literary Journal World Literature British Literarute 1&2 American Contemporary Literature 1945-Present ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Whether I am helping a student with prioritizing assignments, studying for tests, teaching study skills, or guiding him or her process of writing papers, I strive to promote metacognitive awareness throughout the tutoring experience. Students ultimately need to develop an awareness of how they learn best and what strategies work for them. It is my job to facilitate this process while yielding improved academic results through collaboration with students along the way.
Over the course of my years as a Learning Specialist in a university setting, and as Master Tutor Certified by The College Reading and Learning Association, I have developed and refined successful techniques with students who may struggle with the following: executive functioning issues, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, Asberger’s Syndrome, English as a Second Language, and various non-verbal learning disabilities. MI also have ex ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In addition to working for many years as a writer and editor for newspapers, Harvard Law School, and as a freelancer, I have volunteered as a writing tutor and ESL classroom tutor. I have worked with students on a wide range of skills, from bolstering the English-language ability of students from other countries to helping advanced students craft sophisticated academic analysis and college essays. I enjoy using my editorial skills to help students improve their writing and succeed in school.
I believe in constructive criticism and positive reinforcement, steering students to find their own voice and style. I recommend simplicity in writing and the importance of making arguments in a clear, concise manner. For many students, writing is deeply personal, and I'll always respect their choices while guiding them to improve their presentation.

A Little Bit About Me...

I use traditional style (I have a background in Latin)and proper English; I accommodate current usage. I favor limiting colloquialisms. One must write clearly and concisely. I do not use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech that is commonly seen in print. A dead metaphor such as "lend a hand", however, is acceptable. I also try not to use a long word where a short one will do. If it is possible to cut out a word, I do so. I use the active not passive voice in most cases.
Tutoring students (high school and college) in English since 2003 in Cambridge, MA. Taught as grad student for three years. I have over 15 years of experience as editor and proofreader. I have been a paid writer.

More About This Tutor...

I love helping students achieve educational goals. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and the right to be a successful student. Not everyone processes things the same way, I like to use my students' individual learning styles to dictate how I teach. The goal of tutoring is to assist the individual and therefore I adapt my style to suit the specific needs of each student.
As a graduate of one of the premier Universities in the United States I have had an opportunity to learn from the very best higher education has to offer. Over the past several years, I have reinforced my editorial skills as a college and graduate school admissions coach, helping students prepare for standardized tests, write and edit essays for University applications and prepare for interviews. I have experience in teaching English and Sociology as a Teaching Apprentice at the University level ... read more
