Writing is one of my top subjects! I can help students at all grade levels with academic writing, including the use of APA format.

I take a holistic approach and match students' needs with my teaching methods. I begin with a free assessment during which we determine together how often and what kind if tutoring is needed. We also decide where and when tutoring will take place based on your needs and budget. I ask that parents or clients bring any previous testing information or IEP if one is in place. If needed or possible, I consult with current teachers or other educators about the student's needs and begin to develop a customized learning plan. During the second session, I bring ideas about a learning plan and we collaborate on the learning plan that will meet your or the student's needs. Sessions involve active learning and customized to fit each student's interests, experiences, activity level, abilities, and needs. Data is taken frequently to monitor progress. I use PhonoGraphix to build decoding skills, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Along with my passion for learning and my commitment to excellence, my love for teaching naturally overflows in tutoring. In my first linguistics class, I was approached by the teacher and asked to tutor while taking the class! I have since worked as a Teacher's Assistant for Linguistics, an ESL tutor with Journey's End Refugee Services,and a Humanities instructor and tutor in Lima, Peru. I lived and worked in Lima for three years and have native command of Spanish pronunciation, grammar and syntax. I have never received a grade below "A" on any written assignment throughout my college career.
I believe that learning should be fun! My goal as a tutor is not only to help students understand and retain information, but also to develop their learning abilities in ways that will equip them throughout their lifetime learning experience. I am focused on helping learners to discover their ... read more

I love to work with students of all ages. I am a patient teacher and try to tailor my teaching style to the progress of my student. I prefer to promote understanding through the use of work sheets, tutorials, and real world examples, rather then simply relying on memorization. I have a good sense of humor and believe that constructive learning environments are both challenging and light-hearted.
I studied creative writing at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities in Greenville SC. There I studied poetry, play writing, grammar, editing, fiction, and creative nonfiction. I won two national scholastic writing awards for my writing. I also studied at Rice University which is a highly selective university in Houston Texas. I majored in sociology and also took many intensive English classes. While a student at Rice, I tutored several of my peers in both sociology and engli ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Four years ago, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from a local university. I received a BS in Rehabilitation Studies. This degree prepared me to work with our special population. My ultimate desire was to work with children. Therefore, I returned to UNCG and obtained my License in Special Education K-12. Over the past four years, I have successfully worked in the public school system. I teach at the elementary level which allows me to teach Math, Language Arts, Science and Social Studies. My favorite subject matter is teaching children to read! This past year I was a lead tutor after-school for Reading and Math.
Teaching is an exciting profession for me. I believe all kids including the most intellectually disabled can learn. I believe in setting high but realistic goals for students. Learning starts before children enter school and should be integrated between home and school. I am a ... read more

I love teaching and helping others, especially children. I believe that there are "no stupid questions" and that all children can learn. I think that one of my best qualities is "patience" with others. I am a firm believer in teaching by example. I like to share my personal experiences of working hard and overcoming obstacles. I truly beleive that every child can do anything that they "put their mind to". I love to instill in children my enthusiasm for constantly learning new things.

My teaching style would be similar to that of a coach. As a Tutor, I would strive to develop a student's potential while inspiring and motivating the student to learn new skills and to excel. My teaching style would focus on developing rapport, motivating, teaching and building the student's confidence. I would encourage the student to practice new skills and provide suggestions for continued improvement in order for the student to achieve their educational goals. I would hope to obtain a positive learning experience for everyone.
I have experience teaching G.E.D. students in various levels of Reading, Writing and Grammar. I have always enjoyed Language Arts and would be interested in teaching either Elementary, Middle School or High School students. I would enjoy this opportunity.
