My comments on tutoring Language Arts : I have been tutoring Language Arts at the middle school and high school levels for over 20 years. I am very good at breaking down the concepts and making them easy to understand. The subject areas of reading, writing, listening, speaking, and visual representation will be easy for you the way I present them. For example, if you are not a good listener, I have special exercises to help you pay attention and listen better. Furthermore, I teach you how to sound out your spelling, not to memorize...the old way, the way they used to do it back in the day when people read and spelled well. You will impress your teachers and classmates so much, and reading will get easy for you. Then I will teach you good writing style and habits to make your writing flow well and sound good. And if you've ever wanted to learn cursive, now's the time! Good speaking and grammar are also important, and public speaking, if your teacher requires it. Finally, interpreting the meaning of visual representations of ideas and being able to represent ideas visually is sometimes important in a Language Arts class. Your first hour of tutoring is free with me (even if you don't continue) so you will see how much tutoring is going to help you.

I am currently employed by a college in Roanoke, Virginia as a tutor of mathematics, chemistry, and computer science and tutor elementary school, middle school, high school, college students, and others professionally. For the last 23 years, it has been so fulfilling working for three colleges and tutoring independently over 2,000 students of all ages in all areas of math and computer science, as well as college writing, adult literacy and English as a Second Language (ESL). I have a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics and computer science and am internationally certified by the College Reading and Learning Association. I love tutoring more every year I do it.
If you watch me closely during our sessions, you can see me secretly paying keen attention to you and how you learn best. For example, you might say, "It LOOKS like they want me to factor here." And I'll think, "Aha! LO ... read more

Experienced and Caring Teacher

Students learn in many different ways. They have both strengths and weaknesses that play a role in their ultimate success. Learning should be student-centered.
I enjoy working with children and adults and I have worked as a public school teacher for 10 years. I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from the College of William and Mary. I have worked with autistic students in my classroom and with students who have a variety of learning abilities.
