“To know how to suggest is the art of teaching.”

Learning should be a fun experience for children and adults alike, and while I maintain structure, I also want to make sure that students are enjoying the time that they spend learning with me. I am a patient teacher, and as someone who went through school with ADD, I understand the difficulties many children face in traditional classroom settings.
I have recently graduated and am eager to share my knowledge with others. During my time in school, I became an AP Scholar, Presidential Scholar, 21st Century Scholar, and Honor Graduate. I graduated in the top ten percent of my class and am dedicated to the education of others. I am currently pursuing a degree in education.

My comments on tutoring Poetry : I am particularly adept at teaching Shakespeare.

I advocate a "hands-on" approach that affords students an opportunity to feel as if they are teaching themselves and I am there only to facilitate the process.
I am foremost a writer whose 38-year, award-winning career is rooted in journalism. However, I also have an extensive teaching background. I have taught writing labs at St. Thomas University – Miami, Florida (1987-88), Mississippi State University (1988-89) and Texas A&M University (1989-93); and I currently offer tutoring services to 10th- and 11th-grade foreign exchange students from all over the world. Some of my tutoring involves preparing students to take the college-entrance SAT. I am particularly qualified to do this from a writing perspective, because the College Board contracts me each year to assess the essays students submit as part of their SAT testing. In a similar fashion, Pearson Education, I ... read more

In one form or another, I have been in a university setting for 18 years and for the last five years, I have been a columnist, writer and teacher in several capacities as a university reading and writing consultant, a public school substitute, an introduction to literature professor, a reporter and columnist, a film/music editor, a writing strategies professor, and a composition and rhetoric instructor. Currently, I am pursuing a MFA in Documentary Filmmaking and Media studies at the University of North Texas where I also teach introduction to Radio, Television, and Film writing as well as assistant teach for a class entitled Theory and Critical Studies.

Brain-based, student-centered
I'm Ebony! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor's in Cognitive Studies and Education, and earned a Master's degree with distinction in Curriculum and Instruction. I am a Cognitive Specialist/neuroeducator whose sole objective is bridging the divide between the student and the content, using methods based on the individual's learning style. As I think back to when I have achieved most success as a student, it was always because of a phenomenal educator who taught the content in ways that appealed to my learning style. I was immersed in the content, and I thrived because of it. I provide the same instructional strategies and experiences for my students, who vary from children with neurological differences such as Autism, Dyslexia, and other learning differences, to gifted students, to adults who never learned how to read or perform mathematics. I' ... read more

I enjoy working with others an being a mentor and teaching people. I've tutored many students my age and younger and older than me and i've never had no complaints. Everyone i have helped tutor has had good grades not failed anything after working with me.
I like to ask children or students how do they like to learn? and once they tell me how they like to learn i teach them the way they like to learn so that they remember what they need to know.

More About This Tutor...

I am that highly qualified professional who is prepared to take on the challenging and yet rewarding position as a teacher of English or Social Studies. I am a mature student, who has attained a Master’s of Art in teaching degree from TWU (Fall 2009), and have certification in Secondary English Language Arts & Reading and Secondary Social Studies. I have been substitute teaching multiple subjects nearly every day this past year in the Northwest Independent School District, since completing my student teaching English & Reading at Northwest High School.
I am convinced that for students to succeed in their education and in life they must have a firm foundation in reading and writing. Without mastering these basics it is nearly impossible for them to move on to a higher learning level. It is my desire to not just improve test scores, but to inculcate a passion for literature, reading ... read more

I enjoy working with all students and have tutored students for the past 4 years in the AVID program. Additionally, I tutored and served as a writing to coach to high-school and college students during my off time. My focus is helping students understand how to aptly address course assignments, how to structure and assemble essays, term papers and research papers and how to decipher themes and motifs in classic readings for assigned papers. My method is to guide students to becoming skilled writers through the editing process and use of an explanatory narrative. I believe the best learning is taught in a manner that encourages and supports students to find their own way as life-long learners.
For almost twenty years, I’ve worked with students as a K-12 as a tutor, coordinator, counselor, and advocate in a variety of educational environments. I am committed to the belief that achiev ... read more

As a dance educator, choreographer, and performer, I am interested in pedagogical practice and theory in educational practice, theory, and curricula. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Public Communications, which requires strong written and verbal communication skills.

During my 15 years of academic work, I have tutored students in writing, speech, research methods, women's studies, gender studies, social sciences, and the arts.

More About This Tutor...

From a young age, I have enjoyed teaching, working with young people, and the challenge of making a tough problem seem easy. I have a BA in Literature and am a semester away from completing my M.Ed. in Secondary Education. Additionally, I am a trained teaching consultant for the National Writing Project. I have spent the last five years working full time as a teacher, two years in an economically and racially diverse college prep charter school, and three years in one of the most well-respected private schools in the state.
A third generation teacher, working with kids is in my blood. In college, many teachers and peers commented on my ability to break down a large or complicated issue into manageable, easy-to-digest ideas. Now, as I tackle scary grammar issues or the dense analysis of irony in a plot, I thrive on the "lightbulb" look on my students' faces when I have finally ... read more
