My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : Highly qualified k-8

For 20 years I worked for Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools, as a fifth through 7th Grade classroom teacher. I taught all of the academic subjects in various combinations, sometimes all at once to a self-contained class. The State of Tennessee recognized me as "Highly Qualified" in all subjects, from Kindergarten through 8th Grade. I served on the district's math council for 5 years, helped direct the district's science fair one year, and worked extensively in the field of arts-based curriculum development. I also was trained in the IB curriculum, and implemented it for 10 years.
Constructivist, multi-sensory, inquiry-based.

My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : Creative writing has always been an interest of mine. I took at least three college courses over creative writing, writing poetry, and short stories.

I have experience in all things English. From the time I was in high school, I knew I wanted to focus on this subject in my studies in college. I received a BA in English and am currently earning my Masters in Secondary Education to be an English teacher. My interest in English goes beyond the classroom. I have always been an avid reader and writer, pointing out themes and connecting stories to real life. Since graduating college, not only have I gone back to school to be a teacher, but I have also written articles and edited for websites, blogs, and newspapers. i believe English is as important as any other subject in school. You must have English in order to know how to read and write. Having proficiency in reading and writing is also a step for you to gain your dream job. I'm here to help with that.

A Little Bit About Me...

Whatever works best for you.
I am a senior in college working on a Journalism major. I love reading and writing and college has taught me how to craft these skills. I have worked at many summer camps before and I am very patient. In High School I took honors and AP English classes. I love the subjects and hope I can pass on this love to others. I've written every type of paper and creative piece under the sun.

After finishing my undergraduate work, I was a substitute teacher for 7 months. I then went on to Belmont University where I recieved my Masters in Education, which required a one year student teaching placement. I have also served as a TCAP interventionalist where I helped students prepare for the statewide achievment test.
I love to work hands- on with children. I believe in meeting a child at their individual level, both emotionally and academically. I want to make my students believe in themselves in order that they one day meet their full potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

Not every student learns in the same way, and understanding this simple concept is crucial to successful teaching and tutoring. My goal is to understand where each student is in their larger journey as a writer, as well as where he or she is in terms of the immediate work. I believe strongly in flexibility and patience as a teacher, in remaining open to what students say and to implementing new approaches when necessary. I listen carefully to what a student is struggling with and to his or her history as a writer, before I form a practical plan for improvement. The goal is not only to get through one or two papers, but to identify recurring problems and to understand why this particular student is struggling with these specific areas.
While earning my M.F.A. I took an advanced course in the pedagogy of teaching writing, which focused on the teaching of remedial writers. I worked ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I gained appreciation for teachers at an early age. Over the years I have tutored students of different ages. My first experience teaching was teaching a little boy to read. I was surprised at how happy it made him to be able to learn this skill I loved but took for granted. This began a pattern in my life. I have tutored through Chicago and Nashville school programs including Pencil Projects. Often I had to vary my approach to help the student understand. I have experience helping children who had difficulty understanding the work assigned to them and foreign language learners. During my university studies I developed grammatical skills due to writing research papers and essays, which I am now able to pass on through tutoring.
My goal as a teacher is to be as effective as possible and motivate the student to reach their goals. I usually explain a problem verbally first, then demo ... read more
