Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Memphis, TN

I am a junior English major and Religious Studies minor at Rhodes College. I graduated from Harding Academy ('09), a school well known for its strong English department. The past two summers I have worked at Harding's summer camp as a counselor for first and second graders, so patience is definitely a trait that I have come to learn and appreciate. Being an English major, I am strong in areas concerning reading, writing, and grammar. Also, I play football for Rhodes College, and I try to display the work ethic I have learned on the field in all that I do. Reading and writing are, and have always been, enjoyable for me. However, I know that a lot of people do not feel the same way. My goal is to show students that if he or she can get past the miring details that oftentimes come with English, it can be pretty dang interesting. Since revealing the fun parts of English is my goal, I

My teaching method is to determine the student's needs at first. The second step is to focus on how to make it enjoyable for the students to learn regardless of their age so that they may maintain the new skills and techniques when they further their education.

I have been tutoring a middle school student in every subject for a few months and we are seeing positive results. I, too, benefited from tutoring sessions in high school. I graduated from Clemson University in 2004 and have been putting the skills I learned there into practice at my job for just about 7 years. I believe that my teaching style must be customized to the individual. In order for a student to see the most progress, I can't just apply a standard teaching style and think it will work for everyone. If someone needs step by step help, I can do that. If another would like a more disciplined, accountable approach, I can do that as well.

I received my Bachelor's Degree in Writing in 2008 and am graduating this May (2012) with a Master's Degree in Journalism. I worked as a English, Writing, and Grammar Tutor for two years at both my college and graduate school. I have had experience tutoring and writing a variety of styles and genres including creative writing, non-fiction, editorials, poetry, blogs, press releases, and feature articles. Instead of telling the student the correct answer, I prefer to help them understand why the answer is correct. With writing, there can be better ways to word a sentence or rearrange a paragraph and I try to help them figure this out on their own. That way, the next time they run into a similar issue, they remember how they improved their writing the previous time.
