A Little Bit About Me...

I am an experienced teacher of grades 7-12, having taught in my native Australia for over 17 years. I have specialized in teaching senior English and English as a Second Language. I have been a faculty head as well as Curriculum Coordinator. My teaching experience has involved preparing students for state-wide testing. I have written detailed teaching documents which were prepared for the faculty and which contained extensive lesson plans. I am currently completing a masters degree in English Literature and am working as a free lance copy editor.
I have a very flexible approach to teaching and am able to adapt to each student's unique learning style.

I encourage students to activel ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am devoted to the Socratic method. Teaching with leading questions allows my students to formulate within their own minds the connections necessary to grasp the concepts we are addressing. There is no greater joy than seeing the light in a student's eyes when he or she makes that crucial crossover from external facts to internal understanding. Also, I am firmly convinced that education is a social process in which both teacher and student participate, and from which both learn. Working with a motivated student is invigorating to me.
I have been involved in teaching of some sort since young adulthood. My formal experience was the 17 years I spent teaching Philosophy at Gonzaga University and North Idaho College.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching kids of all ages and get along well with them while maintaining a degree of respect from them. I am capable at keeping them on task, even with challenging personalities. I enjoy doing hands-on work as well as print focused work. I have developed patience working with my own six kids in our home. I believe strongly that one-on-one tutoring is the most effective way to help a child achieve and any child will do well when the teaching is tailored to their needs. I will work with parents and students to discover the best possible approach for their child. I do not believe in the one-size-fits-all method of educating a child.
Although I value my college degree in biology and formal education, my real love for learning and teaching has been honed over the years teaching my own kids at home. I've homeschooled them in every general subject for the last eight years. ... read more
