A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated with my Bachelors from the University of Tennessee. My degree is in English, but I have tons of experience tutoring in just about everything. The ages I have tutored most is older elementary, middle, and high schools as well as college. I can especially help prepare students for college and help them succeed in college. Since I am closer to the age of the older students, it is much easier for me to connect with the students as well as help them with their needs. Thanks for the opportunity and consideration. Heather

I have the ability to break down the complex into simple, manageable lessons. Every child and teen deserves to be taught in the manner that works the best for him/her. I strive to unlock the doors that keep students from learning a concept by asking questions and watching intently.
As a graduate of St. Olaf College in MN, I have used my BA in Secondary English Education in the business arena and to teach grammar, literature, advance and remedial writing classes, drama, and reading skills in the classroom. I have worked as a professional writer and editor, editing professional manuscripts, creating marketing materials, writing articles, and producing book reviews online. I held a valid teaching license in MN from 1983-1997, which I did not renew when I started my own business promoting women entrepreneurs online.

I believe anyone can write and everyone has a story to tell. I feel one of the greatest assets I would bring a tutoring relationship is ability to help an individual see their strengths as well as providing constructive feedback. Tutoring with someone who over-emphasizes an individual's weakness could do permanent damage. It is a careful balance in providing feedback without targeting the individual. With me, there is great harmony within that balance.
I obtained a B.A. in 2004 from Lee University in Telecommunication. I feel I have substantial experience in teaching and specifically writing composition to be a great tutor. My college experience includes receiving an outstanding English student award, teaching in an extra-curricular club, and tutoring fellow students. Since 2006 I have been seasonally employed as a reader for a screenplay contest where I read, evaluate, and ... read more

As both a teacher and a counselor I have worked to develop a teaching style that is student focused. In order to do that I want to inspire and challenge the student to reveal their abilities and interests and track them as they develop. The student and I will set specific goal areas with attainable steps, so that we can both check the progress. With a thorough knowledge of the material along with good organization, the process of learning can be creative and lively for both the student and the teacher.
After high school I achieved a BS from George Peabody College for teacher, however did not teach for money until many years later after I received my MS. My work in clinical psychology has been mostly with children, the severely mentally ill, and abuse cases. My last full time position was teaching high school material in a one room school to students who were wards of th ... read more

I was always a dedicated student, and I graduated from Ouachita Baptist University with a BA in English and a GPA of 3.97. I was also a writing consultant at the university’s writing lab for two years. I worked with students on all aspects of writing a paper, whether it was finding the main idea, building an argument, or using proper grammar, style, and formatting. My goal was to provide an objective eye, analytic perspective, and friendly assistance to those writing research, response, or creative papers. I’ve also been passionate about English literature throughout my life, and continual reading and studying has made me knowledgeable on a number of literary topics.
My teaching style is conversational and focused on helping students understand what they are working on. I want to encourage them to find the answers, but I won’t put them on the spot. I ask questions and instruct in a ... read more

I have always told my classes, "Learning can be fun; and if it's not, you may not be doing it right." Of course, that does not mean learning isn’t work; but part of growing up – and selecting a career – is learning that work can be enjoyable. I should mention that it is not my way to enforce memorization for the sake of it. If you understand concepts, that is much better. I always say “an example is the embodiment of a rule”. I am always committed to a student’s success; and will not let him or her give up. The biggest thrill in teaching is watching a student suddenly understand a concept. It happens frequently, and it never gets old.
For four years I taught in private schools, where I gave instruction at the middle and high school levels in English, French, Hebrew, computer programming, and office applications (spreadsheets, etc). I taught Math and English for one year at ... read more
