Read More About Helen G...

I taught Nonfiction Writing, Composition and Professional Writing at the University of Pittsburgh for three years. My essays have been published in the New York Times and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, broadcast on National Public Radio, and anthologized in *Operation Homecoming* and in The Best of the New York Times "Modern Love" Column. My undergraduate degrees were in Studio Arts and English, with a minor in Art History and I encourage my students to incorporate multimedia in their work. I also encourage study of historical context for individual narratives and journalism.
Patient, friendly, supportive but rigorous feedback on narratives, essays and research papers with close attention to quality of research, craftsmanship, grammar, analysis and structure.

Experienced tutor, 4.00 B.A. and HS GPA, Kent State Grad

Everybody learns differently, and I vary my teaching style to meet the individual learning needs of the person whom I am tutoring. One major constant of my teaching style, though, is that I heavily emphasize repetition in one manner or another.
Having assisted with homeschooling my brother for the last five years, I have extensive experience in tutoring. I have provided tutoring services in a wide variety of high school level classes ranging from English to mathematics to science. Moreover, I have provided tutoring services to university students in college level algebra, writing, and speech courses.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned two degrees, a Bachelor of Arts in English and a Master of Arts in Education. I not only successfully completed two teaching internships in Manhattan's public schools, but I have also taught in Brooklyn's Middle and High Schools. I am currently employed as a substitute teacher in the Pennsylvania's Pine-Richland and North Hills School districts and look forward to further opportunities to help students achieve their potential.
My teaching style is very student-centered; I not only actively seek to engage students in my curriculum, but I also seek to help foster their love of learning. I firmly believe in differentiating my instruction to accommodate my student's various learning strengths and styles, and in pursuit of this goal I utilize educational supplements as integral parts of my curricula. I also am a firm believer in the usefulness of learning standards ... read more

As an undergraduate, I worked as a peer tutor in English at Penn State Beaver and at the University Park main campus. I enjoy assisting students with their paper development, grammar, and all of the necessary skills to write a well-polished essay. After graduating from Penn State with my BA in English, I moved on to Carnegie Mellon University, where I completed a one year Master's program in Literary and Cultural Studies. I was employed as a teaching assistant in a writing-intensive art history course, in which I graded student work and assisted the students with basic writing techniques. After graduating from CMU, I began working for Penn State Beaver as well as the Community College for Beaver County as an English Instructor. I have been teaching at these schools for a year in courses ranging from Remedial English to English Composition I. Moreover, I was invited back to the Tutoring C ... read more

I have always loved learning for its own sake, mostly because of my passion for reading as a child. Though 120 credits are required to graduate with a B.S. in Physics, I graduated with 238 credits, which I filled up with Science, Philosophy, Social Science and English courses from other fields. I have written many philosophical essays, laboratory reports, research papers, English papers, etc, and have tutored students in Mathematics, Astronomy, Physics, English, and other fields and sciences.
My goal is to simply to help. Everyone can learn, even in subjects they find difficult. I understand from first-hand experience why people can find the sciences difficult, especially Math and Physics, because I myself have had great difficulty with them in the past. So I know how hard it is, and I know that its possible to succeed despite this. I think the key is for someone to find a method o ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching art is one of my favorite ways to apply my abilities. I am particularly passionate about comics and giving children the tools to express themselves through art and self-publishing, skills I hope they apply on their own after I am finished teaching them. I believe in giving children the same respect as adults whenever possible. In my experience, developing an authentic rapport with children is more effective than talking down to them.
I have volunteered teaching grade-school age children in theater at Sweetwater Center for the Arts in Sewickley, PA and teaching creative writing to fifth-grade students at the William H. Ray School in Chicago, IL. I have had paid positions teaching a workshop in comics to middle-school students at Sewickley Academy and teaching drawing and basic self-publishing at an after-school program in West Lebanon, NH. My education at CCS has included n ... read more

As a law school graduate, I am well trained in writing and communication skills. While in law school I was awarded a position on the legal journal of Health Matrix: Journal of Law-Medicine. My duties as a member of the executive board were to manage the staff and tutor the other editors in writing skills as they developed articles worthy of publication in the journal. In addition to my experience in law school, I am currently clerking for a federal judge in downtown Pittsburgh where I write legal opinions and edit the work of other law clerks and interns. I believe that my experience in editing the work of others at a high level will prove to be a valuable asset in the tutoring of children in writing and reading skills.
In addition to my desire to practice law, I have a passion for the education of children. I believe children learn in many different ways and I am not committ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that each individual has his/her own way of learning new information. I think it is necessary to discover your child's specific needs and apply the proper teaching methods to suit his/her learning style. I have a passion for teaching and I am willing to be patient with your child until the concepts he/she struggles with are grasped. I believe in creating an easy-going and "fun" environment. I will make sure your child knows precisely why what is being taught needs to be learned by explaining its practical applications. I believe that education is of the utmost importance. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.
I am a graduate of the Pennsylvania State University where I earned a Bachelor's degree in Human Development, which is akin to psychology. Throughout my studies, I have gained understanding of the cognitive processes of people throughout ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in tutoring, substitute teaching, and being an elementary classroom teacher for over one year, my teaching experiences have helped me to instruct students in their learning endeavors. Also, through my love for writing and working on a book along with having an appetite for reading, these additional experiences have also helped me in instructing students in learning. Also I volunteered as a tutor in my local community and developing a summer reading program for our local library.
In order to reach all students, a teacher must use a variety of teaching techniques to meet the various learning styles of the students and must therefore be both flexible and approachable. Teachers should work more as an aid or guide that facilitate the learning process, rather than as omnipotent instructors who attempt to force knowledge into the minds of their students. Information should n ... read more
