English is one of my top subjects!

Before moving to Tucson, I found myself helping other students, sometimes elementary and sometimes high school or junior high. It became clear to them that most of my peers didn't understanding the lectures or in class notes that were provided. In fact, most of the examples never matched the tests that were given. I broke down the lessons into sub-divisions that students of all ages could understand.
Education is a viable tool for the kids in this generation. Technology also plays a role in the learning environment. In my experience, I find often times that it isn't enough for a child to read material and have a clear understanding. Visual concepts as well as real life examples makes all the difference between learning the subject and failing to understand the general concepts behind the subject itself.

My comments on tutoring English : English and language teacher for native and second language speakers in college, community classes and private language schools

Brief lecture-style introduction to the material, followed by hands-on practice with a variety of activities that give students the opportunity to solve problems and discover answers on their own and through collaboration; much one on one consultation and individualized instruction to improve writing.
