I am young; however, I have a huge passion for all facets of English. I enjoy keeping up with grammar rule changes. In high school I actually looked forward to writing research or literature based papers. I hope to soon have a position on a newspaper, magazine, or publishing staff. I was on the newspaper and yearbook staff during high school and actually had the opportunity to write for a Catholic magazine, One Voice. I have a lot of patience, coming from growing up with seven siblings, and am very competent when it comes to teaching. I have plenty of experience.

I have more than 20 years of teaching experience students in grades 7-12. I currently teach 10th grade English and work part-time with Han Academy. I have more than ten years experience teaching Advanced Placement Language and Composition, Advanced Placement Literature and Composition, ACT/SAT Prep, history, journalism, public speaking, and dramatic events. I thrive on teaching and student success. I utilize elements of each of the five teaching styles; however, I prefer the I Do, We Do, You Do style of learning. I firmly believe in providing clear instruction and demonstration of each concept. Then, the student and I work together to master a concept. After that, I provide the student an opportunity to practice and demonstrate his/her mastery of the material in a variety of situations. If the student still needs help, I reteach. I believe in positive reinforcement. Every student ca

I believe that nothing can replace personal interaction in improving writing skills. In my classrooms, I utilize peer groups and personal interaction to make clear the connections between writer and reader. I take a non-judgemental approach to dealing with the shortcomings each writer brings to communication and work very hard to personalize the importance of effective writing skills for success at any academic level. When I tutor or work one-to-one with a student or mature writer, I try to balance respect for the writer's personal voice and perspective with the demands of excellence in written communication. I have a very diverse teaching and writing background in educational and professional settings, including both English and journalism. In addition to working as a writer and editor, I have taught young people K-college in a variety of public and private settings for more than 15 yea

In my experience teaching a wide range of ages and children from very different backgrounds, I have seen how all students can thrive in an academic setting with the right instructional strategy. All students learn differently; some need their assignments read aloud, while others prefer to read alone. Some learn better by hearing what is being taught, while others prefer to learn with visual aides. Some thrive on group and peer assignments, while others prefer to work alone or one-on-one with the teacher. My job is to find how your student will grasp what is being taught in the most effective manner of teaching. I did not realize I wanted to become a teacher until after I took a long-term substitute job while looking for employment. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and decided to further my education so that I could continue to teach. My undergraduate degree is in Mass Communicat

Each and every child has the ability to learn and I have the ability to teach them. I have always been driven to achieve the impossible!
