Reading Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sparta, OH

My name is Cristina, and I love to tutor:) I have tutored and/or taught almost every age group. I was a writing tutor for three years in college and also held a graduate assistantship in which I proofread documents to be submitted for publication. I have also helped elementary-age students with their homework at an after-school program at a local elementary school. Currently I work with young children at The Goddard School and love it. Through this, I have experience helping children with their letters. I have a Master's degree in Clinical and Community Psychology. I have been described as a patient, positive, and effective tutor. During my time as a college writing tutor, I was educated about the importance of learning styles. I try to make tutoring sessions fun, effective, and personalized by discovering each student's unique learning style.

I absolutely love performing and any aspect of theatre. I love learning and growing in my theatre knowledge and experiences. I have been performing in some way my whole world and love to share my passion with others. I also love English and Shakespeare; obviously these both go hand in hand with theatre! I do not have a definitive teaching style. When teaching someone, I usually try to adapt to their learning style, and if they do not have a strategy that works, I help them develop a good learning style and get comfortable with it. I like to think I make learning difficult things more fun and approachable.

The summary of my experience has a lot to do with the concept of writing, both creatively and contextually.
