Experienced Composition, Grammar and Literature Instructor

I have a B.A. in English and History from Marquette University in Miwaukee, Wisconsin. I believe in studying those subjects which are of greatest interest to me, and I have always had a strong passion for literature as an expression of who we are in this world and who we want to be. Literature is the exploration of our human condition, and I have always wanted to learn more about how those before us experienced their world. I was fortunate enough to spend my junior year abroad studying Medieval and Renaissance literature at Oxford University in England. While I attended a school that served the credit needs of American studying abroad, I still expereinced a very unique and special educational system. I learned to write at Oxford with anywhere from three to four 10-page papers due each week! It was the most amazing time becuase any work of literature I was reading meant that I could v ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : From my educational background (B.A., English) and professional experience (20 years in journalism), I have an excellent understanding of writing from all genres.

With a degree in English and 20 years in journalism, I have a thorough understanding of the principles required to read and write at a high level. I can teach a student how to write clearly, concisely and, if he/she has the desire, even compellingly. I can also help a student better comprehend what he/she reads and, moreover, appreciate and enjoy it.
Patient. Encouraging. Funny. I believe learning should be a joy, not a chore.

Continued learning equals continued growth.

My teaching style is to make sure my teaching is inclusive so that every child can actively participate in the learning experience. Differentiation is an important method I use to help those students who struggle in certain areas.
I have been teaching now for a total of four years. However, I have been working in the educational field for eight years. Prior to becoming a teacher, I worked as a library clerk. Also, I have experience as a tutor. I tutored for two years in an after-school program at a local church in my community. Currently, I am a special education teacher at Frederick Law Olmsted Academy North in Louisville, Kentucky. I mainly teach sixth grade language arts classes. My skills and knowledge of how to effectively educate students have continued to improve over the years. The summative evaluations I have received each year as a teacher have been positive.

Have fun while learning!

- I am patient with the student and make sure that he/she knows and understand that I am here to help and to provide opportunities to him/her to use the available resources at his/her disposal. Example: how to use the internet efficiently. It is a powerful tool if you know how to use it. - I let the student define and explain clearly what is it that he/she does not understand. This encourages the student to organize his/her thinking process and help me (the tutor) identify problem areas. -I try to keep explanations simple, logical, clear and to the point. -I encourage students to email or call me with any questions or concerns prior to sessions.
