Middle School Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help

I taught and tutored ESL two years before entering law school. I hae taught college classes as an adjunct and later FT professor at Penn College for 25 years. I currently serve as Career Outreach Coordinator for HACC-Lebanon Campus. I have tutored many students, particularly in areas such as writing essays. I also served as a reader for the SAT Writing section, so I am familiar with what they are seeking. I am very proficient in grammar and structure. My teaching style with students of all ages is to facilitate their learning as opposed to simply feeding them what I feel is the best response. Students learning is maximized when they can take ownership of and pride in their work. I am very patient. Recognizing that all students learn differently, I seek to ascertain their learning styles and then adjust my tutoring style to that learning style.

I teach with the student. I find out where the student is with regard to what I am teaching and instead of expecting him to get to the level of which I am teaching, I bring him to the level of where he should be. so it is not so much of a struggle for the student. Education should be fun and not something to endure. I am an R.N. I have an RN and a Masters degree in Nursing with a 4.0 GPA in that degree. I also have a certification in Legal-Nurse Consulting and I am obtaining a certification in Forensic Nursing. Becuase I am a Legal-Nurse Consultant, I basically write for a living for law firms. Therefore, I am also quite subjects such as paralegal studies. I value education and I believe in assisting others in this endeavor. I specialize in Nursing students, but can assist any others in the subjects listed.

Being an avid writer with publishing credits, I can help you with a wide assortment of techniques. We can work something out. I am a published freelancer (Complex Magazine, cinemablend.com, Weightwatchers.com, The Source, etc), and a middle school Language Arts teacher for the past 5 years. I also graduated Rutgers University with a BA in journalism, and I minored in English, so I cover a lot of bases. I can help you with both reading and writing. I have the experience to take you far. I prefer online tutoring, but in the classroom, I usually use project-based learning, which encompasses everything from reading to listening to creating until the subject is mastered. I like to use fun, learner-friendly examples to spark interest and imagination. Imagination is very important to me. It's built bridges and cities in the past. Imagination and application is king.

I have been a classroom teacher for over 20 years. I have taught all subjects in elementary school, English, history, and mathematics in middle school, and English composition and literature in high school. Additionally, I have taught mass communication and creative writing in high school. I have taught remedial English, freshman composition, and technical writing on a collegiate level. A person who has strong negative feelings about learning is automatically hindered in any learning environment. I first gain the trust of my students, and then start to build an appreciation for learning in their minds. Once that process has begun, I inject a sense of humor, a sense of patience, and a great deal of love into my teaching.

I feel a great deal of satisfaction in assisting children to fulfill their educational potentials. I believe that a solid foundation in arithmetical and writing/reading basics is essential for further educational success. I therefore prefer to tutor elementary school children. I believe that a prime goal of a tutor is to prepare material that the students can enjoy while they are learning and developing study skills. This will foster a desire to learn and a love for learning. I currently tutor privately 2 days a week for a 2nd Grader diagnosed with ADHD in reading comprehension, writing, and math.

I have been teaching biology at the college level for around 8 years, including small and large groups, laboratories, and lectures. My teaching certificate experience has helped me to understand how students think and learn, and how best to help them improve in their coursework. While I specialize in biology, I also tutor in literature and general writing. I provide online and in-person editing services for any subject. Please see my business site, www.anderson-tutoring.org, for more details. I'm enthusiastic about learning and helping my students to learn. My primary goal is to teach students to learn on their own, rather than simply giving them answers. I think of myself as a leargning guide, not just an instructor. I like to help students figure out how to answer their own questions, so they eventually no longer need a tutor!

In the last 20 years of tutorial services and as a contracted para-ed within my local school district, I have gained much from observing students' success and struggles. Their accomplishments have resulted in a personal excitement to continue assisting in their life-changing work. Students have ranged from pre-K to college level/adult; from those learning basic life-skills to others working toward an advanced college degree; and from frequent in-person sessions per week at the student's home to one-time project work at a library site.
