Public Relations Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Rapidan, VA

I offer 16 years of English writing instructional experience. I have taught a diverse range of students, both in terms of abilities and cultural backgrounds. Instructional areas include English as a second language, developmental concerns, creative writing and poetry (I am a published poet), professional and technical writing. I have also provided SAT and AP preparation tutoring. My instructional approach emphasizes interactivity, use of new technologies, and a positive, "we can do it" philosophy that acknowledges writing s a process that starts with the creation of ideas, moves to refinement and revision, and ends with emphasis on correctness. In this approach, students who find writing challenging often discover that an emphasis on writing freely and creatively along with a focus on critical thinking skills, is the fastest way to improved written content and technique.

My Teaching Style varies according to the needs of the student(s) with whom I am working. I believe in using the style that helps students learn. Some students need more direct supervision than other students to reach goals and objectives. During my career I have successfully provided tutoring to students ranging from elementary school through college, utilizing Teaching Styles to include the Formal Authority, Personal Model, Facilitator, Expert or Delegator Style. In the past, all of the students that I have provided individual or group tutoring have reached established goals and objectives. My career in tutoring and teaching have been both diversified and rewarding. I have been able to help students develop educationally ranging from elementary school children to college seniors and young adults. Some of my assistance has been delivered through such programs as No Child Left Behin

I gained my tutoring experience working the Wilmer Writing Center at Lynchburg College while I was a student there. I worked with undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professors, to edit their papers; these papers covered all subject areas from English to Science to Teaching. I also tutored students in English specifically while working at the writing center. I helped to improve students grades significantly while also teaching them at the same time. I earned a BA in Marketing and so I am well versed in business as well as English Literature and Writing. I also completed a thesis in the area of English Literature. I love tutoring and working with students to help them reach their highest potential. It is very rewarding when I know that I have taught a student something new or helped them to acheive better grades in a subject they are struggling with. I like to work with studen
