A Little Bit About Me...

I usually teach by reviewing the lesson that kids don't understand, but I'm open to changing my style according to each type of student!
Hi! I am a sophomore in high school and I love tutoring kids! I've done some tutoring before in my neighborhood, and at my school. They all seem to like my teaching style and all of the students I've tutored have reported better results. I do tutoring mainly because I love helping people and seeing them succeed under my guidance. Please reach out to me if you're interested!

I graduated from Spring Arbor University with a BA in English-Writing. Throughout my classes, I have honed the skills of writing and communicating effectively, whether it be creatively or analytically, as well as expanded my knowledge of literature by taking classes such as Shakespeare and 20th Century British Literature. I am a very well-read person who has a leaning toward classic authors such as Bronte, Dumas,and Hemingway. I completed a senior honors thesis, which was 70 pages of analyzing the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and continuing my own creative project, a novel in the making. This honors thesis received the Marsha Daigle-Williamson Award in English in May 2011. To go along with my English degree, I acquired a minor in History while at Spring Arbor University, which led to me tutoring an American History course. Along with this, I have published short storied and poems in smal ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My name is Kaitlyn. I am passionate about languages and cultures and therefore am enthusiastic about assisting others on their journey in learning to speak, read and write a foreign language. I can relate to the dedication and drive that is required while pursuing any language, as I have just recently graduated from Grand Valley State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish. I have been studying this beautiful language for over 10 years now. As learning any language, it is an ongoing process and I am pleased to say that I am more passionate today than ever about the language and the people that you are able to meet and communicate with by being able to converse in Spanish. I have great conversational skills and am very reliable. Most of my tutoring abilities come from my own experiences as a student and also from having the chance to tutor English while I was studying abro ... read more

Think well. Write well.

I have worked in Cedarville University's Writing Center as a tutor for two years. As a tutor, I conducted one-on-one sessions with college-age students to help them improve their writing and critical thinking skills. I also led several workshops on various skills required for college-level writing, such as "How to write a historical/biographical analysis" and "How to write a Marxist analysis." In addition, in training for my tutorship, I wrote a research paper on how to tutor various types of LD students, focusing on students with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, and various Autism Spectrum Disorders. I've also worked as a leader at Cedarville University's annual writing camp for high school-age students. At the camp, I led group workshops for creative writing (both fiction and poetry) and led discussions on perfecting various writing skills.
I prefer a style that empowers the students to take ... read more

AMERICAN TOEFL TEACHER IN CHENGDU CHINA

I have been living in China for 8 years and have taught every age group from 2 to 60 and every skill level from basic to TOEFL and business English. I enjoy the diversity of students and helping them improve their English abilities. Teaching one on one is the most beneficial as I can really target the students weaknesses and help them excel.
I like to get down to the assigned task and mix the class up with serious teaching and also humor to help break up the lesson.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Writing Minor, and I am well- trained in not only creative writing, but writing non-fiction work and journalism styled writing. I have also written several short scripts, some of which have been performed by a small group of students for an audience. I have a great love of words, language, and imagery through both words and language. I wish to work with other potential writers to help them sculpt their own writing craft.

If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.

Good teaching is about listening, questioning, being responsive, and remembering that each student and class is different. At the same time, it's about being human, respecting others, and being professional at all times.
I worked as a elementary teacher in Romania for about 13 years. I used to work differentiate and with a combination of classes. From the training I received, I learned methodics, how to teach math, science, physical education, arts, and develop other skills. I am patient and know child psychology. Don't want to substitute parents who have a great role in child development, I want to become the help and the friend of the kid, the friend who brings an alternative and new ideas in developing and performance.

More About This Tutor...

I have a very hands-on teaching approach. In order for a child to truly grasp a concept or show their understanding, they must demonstrate the skill. It would be a disservice to them if it was a "listen only" style.
I recently graduated from a private college in Illinois. I was attending in hopes of receiving my Bachelors in Secondary English Education. Due to life events I had to graduate early without the full completion of this degree. I have been helping in 6-12 English, theater, Language Arts, and Reading classes for 4 years and I plan on starting my Master's Degree in School Counseling next fall.

I teach by learning the student and beccoming aware of how they learn and what interests them in being able to achieve at their best. I love the look on a child's face when they finally realize that they have achieved what they viewed as unachievable. No child should be in the position of believing that they cannot accomplish any task. I believe in teaching from the view point of an open mind and helping the child to view what they are learning from the aspect of I can and not it is impossible.

I am a highly qualified special education teacher, with an endorsement in language arts. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree from Michigan State University in 2008.
