English/Language Arts Tutor

While attending Texas Tech University I was employed by the Marsha Sharp Center for Student Athletes as a tutor and worked with athletes in the following subject areas: English, Spanish, Art History, History, and Political Science. I was also a summer school teacher for a non-profit organization called Shalom Readers and led a classroom of children between 6 and 8 years of age. I was responsible for planning Christian based games and learning activities for them as well as providing them with coursework that covered all basic subject areas. I graduated from Texas Tech cum laude with a degree in English and a double minor in Spanish and Electronic Media and Communications. I come from a family of teachers and hope to gain my certification soon. Please contact me if you are need of tutoring!

More About This Tutor...

I have a wide range of teaching experience with K-12 students who have difficulty learning in a mainstream classroom. My academic background consists of a M.A.T. in Elementary Education, a B.A. in Audiology, and seven credit hours in graduate coursework. I have a valid Florida teaching license. My work history includes being a EDEP group leader and substitute teacher for Volusia County School District, teaching first grade, and working as a teacher of the hearing impaired and speech assistant for K-12 students in several public school systems.
My teaching style addresses each student as an individual with unique abilities and strengths. I believe that it is important to create a positive learning environment for the child and instill a "can-do" attitude. I approach the teaching of a difficult concept by evaluating the child's current level of knowledge and using task analysis ... read more

I believe that everyone can learn anything if they apply themselves. Most of my students have had a difficult time in education and therefore are not your 'traditional' students in high school. However, I believe they can achieve their goals through individual tuition and attention. I want all my students to succeed and will do whatever it takes for them to succeed.
I earned my bachelor degree in Psychology and am currently working on my master's degree. In addition, I have four years experience teaching adult education. I teach high school and adults who cannot attend regular schools. I teach, English, Psychology, Math, Reading, Sociology, and Parenting.

As an Elementary Educator, I firmly believe that all children are capable of complete and total academic success. I am a big advocate of 'hands on' learning experiences as I believe that 'doing leads to learning'. I am unfailingly patient and will constantly evaluate my own teaching style to make sure that your child is being instructed in the manner that best suits his/her learning needs. In my opinion, for a child to learn, the learning needs to be relevant and relatable. I will get to know your child before I begin teaching, because I want to use their interests to make learning fun. I truly believe that all children are meant for great things, and that it simply takes the right person to show them their true potential as learners.
I am currently an Elementary Education major at the University of Central Florida and will graduate in Dec. 2011. I will graduate from UCF with a deg ... read more

My teaching experiences at UCF and abroad have convinced me that the most effective academic instruction is personal; the smaller the classroom or setting, the better the educational experience. I believe that students of all ages learn best through one-on-one interaction. I believe in creating engaging lesson plans that illustrate a given subject's practical value. If a student is engaged in a learning experience that helps them make sense of their world in a tangible way, then the learning process ceases to be a chore and starts to become a necessity. All students should be made to know that education does not belong in the classroom and does not end with graduation, but is a lifelong process that should be embraced.
While pursuing my undergraduate degree in history, it was imperative for me to develop excellent communication skills. After completing my bachelor degree, I de ... read more

Since earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from Baylor University, I taught English, Drama and Journalism in Texas and in New Jersey for several years, after which I spent another 10 years tutoring students from kindergarten through high school in all subjects when they were required to be home from school due to illness or other situations. I subsequently went into the corporate world and trained adults in the use of computer software and other technical needs. I also was a training coordinator at Walt Disney World for several years, which included providing Youth Education Seminars in American History and Literature.

I have earned two bachelor degrees, in mathematics and journalism, from New York University. This education has allowed me to master both math and English/language arts. Additionally, my extensive background working in educational fields has given me the skills and experience necessary to effectively help struggling students.
I believe students learn best when they are guided to take correct approaches. I give solid examples, broken down into simple steps, and always have students practice skills. I vary my explanations in order to discover what type of explanation works best for any given individual. I am patient and persistent.
