Journalism is one of my top subjects! Having served as both a contributing author and editor of UNG's online newspaper publications, my passion for journalism is strong. Under the tutelage of Ron Martz, a 30+ years veteran of the Atlanta Journal Constitution, I developed a myriad of writing, editing, and interviewing skills.

First and foremost, I am passionate about helping children and youth learn, overcome obstacles, and believe in themselves, whether that be academically or otherwise. Over the years, I have learned and had the opportunity to work with and encourage children and teenagers with various behavioral issues, ranging from Aspergers Syndyrome to anxiety and anger issues,so I have a great deal of patience with students whom others consider difficult to work with. Having graduated from the University of North Georgia with a degree in Writing & Publication and a Minor in Mass Communications, I'm confident that the skills I've acquired would serve me well as an effective tutor. My outgoing personality, sense of humor, patience, and 6-summer experience as a camp counselor combine to create an enjoyable learning atmosphere for the students I tutor . With a genuine enthusiasm for working with people fr ... read more

Every word you write runs the risk of being read.

To learn to write, you have to write! My approach is highly practical and hands-on.
I am a freelance writer and editor in Roswell, with experience in print, online, and broadcast media. I have extensive experience teaching newswriting as a teaching assistant at the University of Florida; I later accepted an invitation at UF to serve as a regular lecturer in the ethics of journalism to graduate students. Later, I taught business journalism at the University of North Florida.

Creative tailored ways of learning based on students' needs!

Hello! Thank you for your time. In the summer of 2002, I tutored children from ages 6-12 years at an educational camp. I usually tutor young adults, focusing on conversational English, as well as grammar and writing. In addition, I am an editor/consultant for many professionals in writing composition, speeches and presentations, and editing documents. Although my experience is mostly with older students, I absolutely love children and get along with students of all ages. I have a very creative approach to teaching English, coming up with fun and visual methods of understanding key concepts based on the needs of the student, as well as his/her own learning process. My strengths are proofreading and editing, as well as structuring writing to be the most effective in communication. I also earned a perfect score of 6 out of 6 in the writing section of the GRE for graduate school. I al ... read more

I have lived in many different places and have connected with people from all different races, ethnicity, and walks of life.

Journalism is one of my top subjects! I have been a professional broadcast journalist (with breaks for other positions) since I was 19 years old. I have been a stringer for NPR, The BBC World Service, and a Senior Staff Reporter for a Georgia Public Broadcasting. Most recently, I served as Editor-In-Chief for an online genre newspaper.

I have a lot of experience talking with aspiring writers. I have lead the Gwinnett County Writer's Guild for two years and been a paid speaker and writer's conferences around the country. I coach writers in both the CRAFT and the BUSINESS of writing. I can speak to the caveats of fiction (long form or short), non-fiction, journalism and children's literature. Please contact me to see how I can help YOU.

More About This Tutor...

16 yrs. of instructing ESL at multiple levels: Grammar is my specialty. 5 yrs. of English Composition: primarily dealing with paragraph structure and essay development. 2 yrs. of Public Speaking instruction. 1 yr. of U.S. history taught through art and literature of specific eras. I also have an interest in Military and U.S. history.
In tutoring situations i tend to act more as an expert facilitator: I design tutoring in such a way that there are exercises with expected outcomes. This allows a "bottom up" intake of information.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style encourages relating reading and writing to what they are already reading, writing and listening to. If students can understand language and grammar in their own context and how it is useful then it will be better and easier to incorporate into their own writing and reading and therefore more natural. For example, while teaching ballads I introduced a Coldplay and Bob Dylan songs to students to better understand Lord Randall and other ballads of the time. I am driven by watching students succeed as far as test scores are concerned, but also teaching them the life skills that literature introduces to us.
My experience consists of working with students in a classroom as well as working one on one with students through tutoring. While finishing my English Education degree I worked with a tutoring group in low income schools. I worked in a middle school language arts c ... read more

I currently am working on certification in Special Education K-12. I will be finished in a few months. I will then be pursuing my PhD. I have vast experience in the business field but education is my true passion. I work for Dekalb County Schools as a teacher and love every minute of it. I have been tutoring for the last 2 years.

In utilizing kinesthetic approaches to learning along with visual and auditory means helps to guide the student into a higher learning style.

In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test prep teacher, I have a close knowledge of students' approach to graduate school, and the process of improving their chances of acceptance to schools of choice. I am academically qualified and more especially interested in teaching humanities courses.
The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from wit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

To go along with my writing passion, I also have a passion for working with children. I understand that each child is different; different skill sets, different learning methods and different needs. I like to get a deeper understanding of each child - their likes, interests, and goals - and use those things to creatively teach new concepts and ideas, or reaffirm old ones. I understand that not every child enjoys certain subjects, such as writing, but I try to make the process as enjoyable as possible. It brings me great joy when I see a child light up because they finally understand something. It is my goal to achieve that in each situation.
After graduating from high school with high honors, I struggled to make the transition from that rigid environment, to one of endless possibilities. I weighed the pros and cons of a graphic design or teaching major, taking classes in both the f ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love working with children because they have such a youthfulness that is full of life and ready to take on new challenges. I have worked in numerous leadership roles and One of the aspects I try to instill within the mindset of children, is that English is not as boring as they may think. I believe that if you capture a child's mind by relating the core subject to something similar they are interested in, then you can teach them anything. I want to show students a new way of learning through hands on methods. I am patient yet firm.
I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in English, with a Concentration in Creative Writing. As a student of Kentucky State University, I have explored my passion through words (i.e. Poetry).The Education that I've received from my University, allowed me to not only be successful in my field, but I have written over 100 Poems; which I'm in the process of ge ... read more
