Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Waldorf, MD

I have been an educator for almost 20 years. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher and immediately fell in love with teaching children with special needs. Desiring to continue to teach, I finished a Master's degree which gave me the endorsements to teach K-12 children with special needs. Since then, I have taught reading and mathematics to both children with special needs and regular education children at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. As I gained a greater thirst to do more to help children, outside of teaching in the public school setting, I bagan tutoring. Between teacing within the public school and tutoring outside of the public school setting, I gained a great deal of experience when it comes to identifying strategies that cause children to learn and retain what they have learned. After all was said and done, I finally capped my educational aspi

There are a thousand approaches to Shakespeare, and as a Shakespeare "expert", I've helped people with most of them. That includes: 1.) One-on-one tutoring, 2.) Designing essays and research papers, 3.) Guest lecturing on specific topics, 4.com) Acting as factual consultant on theatre productions, 5.) Editing books, and 6.) Moderating Shakespeare panels and debates. Clients have covered all ages (down to elementary school) and levels of expertise (up to professors). My job is to tailor the tutoring session to your goal, whether that's preparing for an exam or writing a term paper. Prompt and thorough communication is vital to ensuring that the session(s) are satisfactory. In addition, all sessions adhere to strict university standards regarding ethics.

Strategic and fun I'm a young student who enjoys teaching. It's the responsibility of the teacher, to cause the subject to come alive for each student, and that is what I love to do. Only through that, can the student fully grasp what the teacher is offering to them. Both the teacher and student or students can greatly benefit from each other, when things are done in the right fashion. The teacher perfects his or her skills and the student also gains whatever it is that he or she wants to learn.

I firmly believe that the most vital ingredient for student success is passion. I am aware that most students do not walk into a classroom with this; which is why it is my objective to spark an appetite for the written word by focusing on the practice of reading and writing for the real world. Students must realize the purpose and real-life application of content objectives to construct their own meaning and develop autonomy. Through my studies and student teaching experience, I feel this is best achieved through a combination of fervor for the material, conferencing, reader and writers’ workshop, inquiry-guided instruction, critical literacy skills and a collaborative environment. As an instructor, it is my greatest goal to facilitate student learning in the most effective means possible. It is my opinion that a nurturing environment, apprenticeship and accessibility of content ar

I am 23 year old recent graduate from George Mason University. I have a major in English Literature with a concentration in Creative Writing, and a minor in Secondary Education. During my Senior year I taught full time at Edgar Allen Poe Middle School as one of two teachers in an English classroom. I have tutored elementary students in reading and writing during a nanny job. I attended Langley High School, and performed strongly in all of my English coursework. I believe in allowing the student to work most of the problems out for themselves. While explaining the rules of a particular word problem or paper topic is important, the student will only learn if he or she is able to come to the right conclusion through dedicating the time and effort into the project that they are working on. I also believe that every student is capable of creating something unique to his or her own style. Help

As it relates to French Language skills, I completed 4 years of French in high school and 2 years (thus far) at Stony Brook University- currently taking 400-level courses in French Literature. In my Fall Semester of 2013, I attended the Universite de la Sorbonne (IV) as a Stofy Abroad semester, wherein I recieved my Certificate of Completion, passing High-Intermediate French Language courses, including Grammar, Phonetics, 17th and 18th Century French Literature, and Art History. I believe in incorporating multiple methods of teaching language, and with such a complex topic as learning a second, or even third language I also believe in tailoring said methods to the student's specific needs. For example, if one finds a kindred with music, introducing them to french songs would be one of the stronger ways to accomplish fluency and language recognition. Depending on the student's age, I may
