My comments on tutoring Journalism : I have written some journalism piecework over the years.

I believe in tutoring so that the child receives feedback and fully understands his/her own limitations and how to overcome obstacles in class. Many children lack positivity in the methodology! I also believe that using art instruction helps children to learn in a more creative manner.
I have over of 30 years of progressive experience in tutoring young children in the elementary years of education in all subject matter areas. My specialty is literacy and reading, but I am also adept in teaching all of the math curricula as well. I also firmly believe that teaching organizational skills and proper research methodologies are very important for the classroom today--and every child needs these skills in order to excel in the classroom and survive. I am also a qualified art teacher in the NOVA area.

Learn & Earn

Non-pedantic
Career as an analyst has developed many skills. I make a living communicating ideas with technology such as MS Excel. I use the English language like a scalpel, a precision instrument, that makes an exact cut. I have trained classrooms on advanced concepts, and I have tutored individuals on specific subjects.

More About This Tutor...

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.
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.

I am an energetic, articulate, and enthusiastic tutor. I have the ability to teach, motivate, & empower my students. Although I taught Speech, English, and Broadcasting(9-12) for one year, I have tutored for many years since that time. I made the transition from teaching to the corporate world. The skills I gained from teaching and coaching have served me well in the corporate world. That is the message I would convey as I teach - that the skills learned in both English & Speech are skills that ALL people need to be successful in life - no matter WHAT path they take. The ability to speak, write, and read effectively everyone needs.
My teaching style is that of an energetic and enthusiastic mentor. I listen allot, work very heard to establish rapport and trust, and work with them where they need the help. I convey my own love of learning and how important reading comp ... read more
