While I enjoy working with a younger population, I have had more experience with middle school, high school, and college students. I am very patient and easy-going, but I also expect that my students perform the tasks asked of them in the time given, as to further reach our goals. I have a descriptive way of teaching, but I am also a firm believer in using abstract methods in order to obtain and understanding. Visual aids can also be very helpful, such as using pictures, every-day items, or a chemistry model set.

My forte is in instruction and delivery - I am creative and innovative, I excel at teaching to multiple learning styles, and I am extremely motivated about getting students ENGAGED in learning so that they are eager to know more. I love to model for the students, as my own excitement for the subject matter is often translated into students being excited. I can demonstrate practices that are based on real-life experiences, I encourage discovery and experimentation, and I am able to help students make a CONNECTION between their needs, their skill level, and the level of mastery they hope to meet.
I have been an educator for more than 15 years. I have taught English/Language Arts in the public school classroom setting, and have taught basic skills, ACT/SAT prep, and career education in a variety of settings, including public programming, private industry, and educational programs. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After graduating with honors from Grove City College, I took a position as a writer for a large nonprofit organization in Washington, DC. While working as a professional writer, I dedicated my free time to tutoring at a center for urban kids.
Learning must be fun, especially in a tutoring context. In my previous tutoring experiences, I always attempted to turn tasks into games or opportunities for creative expression. For example, multiplication tables can become an opportunity to play a relay game. Learning different parts of speech can be made enjoyable by creating an imaginative story. My particular interest is helping children develop a passion for creative writing and reading. These were essential elements of my own childhood and my development as a writer, and I'm excited to share this experience with others.
