My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I've taken several courses in Shakespeare, but since graduating college the only thing my anthology has been good for is standing on to reach things on high shelves. I'd love to put it to good use again!

I've taken courses in tutoring, grammar, Shakespeare, and writing composition, as well as worked in the University Writing Center at my university as a writing consultant. I currently tutor three Middle Eastern students in writing composition, conventions of English grammar, and health. I do freelance proofreading and editing.
Because English and literature is subjective, I use a nondirective approach to ensure that the student is exercising their creative problem solving skills and critical thinking skills. Basically, I ask them about their interpretation of the text or their own writing. With grammar, I typically model the correct use for the student two or three times, and then have them finish finding patterns and correcting mistakes themselves.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with children. I love English. I love seeing the expression in the eye of a student who finally understands the concepts. I know what it is like to struggle and get frustrated. In Jr high I was tutored in English and math. Once I understood the concepts there was no stopping me. I would love to help your student the way someone helped me once. I am a patient, kind and loving mother. I believe English is the corner stone of education, and the key to future success. Many times a loving teacher, who takes the time necessary, is all a student needs to succeed.

I have an extensive experience in the field of tutoring. For the past eight years, I have work with students from age kindergarten to highschool. From one-on-one tutoring, small groups, to helping a class of more than 60 students. Therefore, I can recognize each student's ability and devised a studying plan to help them improve their weaknesses. With a Bachelor degree in Biology and Chemistry, I have a strong background in science and mathematics. Furthermore, I have taken many courses in Writing, English, and grammar.
Each student has different ways to learn. Some students require a more visual approach while ohers prefer repetion through listening and writing. I try to find the best way to help students learn and retain information. I believe that with the right help, every student has the potential to achieve academic success.

More About This Tutor...

I greatly enjoy helping students come to the “Aha” moments of understanding. Almost nothing gives me greater joy than seeing a student’s eyes light up as he or she makes connections between new and old information. I am very empathetic when a student feels blocked in his or her progress and work hard to find the element that will unblock the learning process. I am easy going and have a good sense of humor, while at the same time I am able to see educational objectives and focus on getting there. I think that every student can learn if they are given the right encouragement and skills. I do my best to do that for my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe it is important to get to know my students by discovering their likes and dislikes about reading and writing, what their interests are, and assessing their confidence levels. While there is no substitute for understanding the "rules" of composition, I believe that learning to enjoy the subject is priority one. By reducing the student's fears or concerns and making it fun, understanding and fluency will eventually follow. Adapting to the needs of the person and adjusting to his or her best learning style is also important. By teaching the skills of invention, in whatever mode best suits the individual, the student can become an independent learner and a self-starter.
