Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects! Reading is a skill that is essential regardless of profession or ambitions in life.I can help you to learn how to gleen the important information in written works and assimilate that information in a way that makes sense to you. Whether reading for enjoyment, to increase language skill, or to complete a project, the ability to comprehend what you are reading is a skill that will serve you well for life.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Social Work with a minor in Race and Ethnic Relations.In addition to being a social worker I am also a published writer. I have had my work printed (hardcopy and online) by multiple magazines and anthologies. I am currently under contract for a book due out in 2012. Also in the fall of 2012 I will begin pursuing a Master's of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing. Aside from academics, I am a former volunteer for Literacy Coalition where I worked with adults and teens who wished to improve their reading and comprehension skills.
As a mother and a former reading coach (volunteer) I have learned that it is imperative to start where the student is not where they should be. I believe that with support and encouragement anyone who wants to improve their reading and writing skills can.

"The Proof is in the Pudding" I will get the job done!

I graduated IRSC Journalism degree w/High Honors, May 2012. I have been awarded many scholarships. I am currently an enrolled in IRSC Human Services Bachelor Degree program. I love children--having raised three sons successfully through college. I understand the workings of a child's mind, and also work well with adults. With the right instructor/instructions...one who loves to teach....success is a given. I can help get the job done. There are many ways to accomplish learning. Not everyone learns in the same way. First you have to understand the person and how they best learn. Reading, writing and the English Language is my expertise. Look forward to working with you. Barbara

My teaching style is very progressive. I utilize Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences quite a bit. I try my best with individualized testing to identify the students learning style. Then once this is identified, I can teach using the way that the student learns the most effectively.An aha light goes off and they understand the material now with a proud smile. To me, the best part of teaching is when the student starts to understand the material!
I am a very reliable, dependable, caring and compassionate person and I have a very strong and diverse educational background. I am very strong in Reading and English. I also have taught ESOL and GED in the School System and have a great deal of patience with that! I am very knowledgeable of study skills.

I will give your child my best effort

My primary aim in tutoring students is to assess exactly where they are academically, including reading level and math skills. Then I teach to their exact level. I help them to set up realistic goals and strive to meet those goals. Encouraging students and helping them to see their progress is a big part of their feeling satisfied that their efforts are showing dividends. I have worked with both the extremely bright, gifted students as well as those with learning disabilities so I understand the importance of proper pacing and the use of various modalities for successfully tutoring each individual.
I have always endeavored to excel academically and so sought after and received a top-level education at Duke University. Having a love of language and having a desire to be able to teach at all levels, I obtained an MA in English from the UNC-G. I have had 43 years of teaching and tutor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Experienced attorney who loves kids more than practicing law. Two years experience tutoring 3rd graders in reading for the FCAT. I believe in making the lesson fun for the child, so they are engaged in the learning process (although they may not realize it!). The way you teach is as important as what you teach.

Brown University ACT Tutor-35 on English and Reading

I am a relaxed, patient tutor. I mainly teach specific strategies and "game plans" that I can tailor to each student's needs. When I was taking the ACT, it calmed my nerves knowing that I had set steps to follow that would help me reach my goal. Additionally, because I suffer from ADHD and have overcame the obstacles it has presented, I know extremely helpful ways to make studying easier for ADHD students.
I have tutored students from my local high school and elementary school. Not only that, but I have also proofread essays and assisted in the college essay writing process. Throughout my life, I have been an avid reader and writer, always excelling in my classes. Furthermore, my writing has been published online and in the newspaper, as I was the communication lead of my high school's Lemelson MIT InvenTeam. Furthermore, I have taken the ACT fairly recently, and believe that m ... read more
