A Little Bit About Me...

As a college English professor and high school English teacher with an MA in English, I have had the opportunity to help many young people improve their writing and critical thinking skills. I have also tutored students from middle school to college level English on many occasions. I can help students at all skill levels become better writers and thinkers.
My teaching style is best described as modern Socratic method. Questioning to elicit critical thinking is the essence of education. Many of my students have thanked me in later years for teaching the principles of clarity, simplicity, brevity and humanity in writing, as those principles haave led to job promotions and advanced degrees.

30+ years teaching experience. Raise grades and confidence!

Because everybody learns differently, I tailor my teaching style to the learning style of the individual student.
I have been a public school special education teacher for 33 years. My specialties are Middle School Math, Algebra I, Geometry, and, Algebra II. However, I can also help you with English skills, especially writing and grammar. Although my Master's Degree is in Special Education, I have many years of experience teaching non-handicapped and even gifted students. I can help you raise your grades and your confidence. You will do MUCH better on tests, including the standardized state test! I offer tutoring anytime, including over the summer to help you retain skills and enter the new school year with confidence.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this.
My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

My comments on tutoring Spelling : English Major

I am currently an English major, specifying in creative writing, at Virginia Tech. In high school, I took both of the offered AP English courses and passed with a 4 on both. In college, almost every class I have taken has been English-oriented, with regards to either literature or writing. When it comes to helping others, I have been editing friends' papers some in high school and multiple times weekly in college. I am able to find what they are doing wrong and constructively advise ways to fix their problems with writing.
I like to see examples of what the person is having difficulty with in order to pinpoint problems and then work on them from there.

All Things Writing!!!

Writing & Public Speaking are my niche. As a tutor, I have helped students at all academic levels (K-12, and beginner undergrad) I've recently discovered a joy for helping others learn and am currently a substitute teacher in Henrico County Public Schools. My current students are primarily at elementary, middle school and high school levels. Throughout my sessions I teach and emphasize the mechanics of writing. I also assist students in test preparation. Many parents want to prepare their children/students for the college or specialty center of their choice. So Essay Writing and Reading Comprehension are subject matters that I work on with students to help achieve those goals.
In Writing... I generally give my students a mild assessment to see how I can best help them. I also conduct all of my own lesson planning. However, I am certainly accustomed to helping students with cu ... read more

Bienvenidos!

Hi! My name is Lauren Cotman. I am a middle school Spanish teacher in Chesterfield County. I have been studying Spanish since I was in the 6th grade and went on to become the President of the Spanish National Honors Society while I was in High School. While in High School, I developed a love for the language and all of the different cultures of the Spanish speaking world. I went on to major in Spanish at Bridgewater College and I was very active with the Latino population on campus and in the community. I went on to further my knowledge by studying abroad in Cuernavaca, Mexico and in Barcelona, Spain. From these two experiences I walked away with a much more impressive knowledge of the language but also experiences that I will have with me for the rest of my life. I look forward to being able to help your Spanish student develop the foundation and skills that will allow for he/she ... read more

Professional Nerd

It always seemed I was the "smart, nice one" in the class, from elementary school through graduate school. I have helped students study for exams, practice speeches and presentations, perform research for projects, and compose and edit papers for students from sixth grade up to doctoral programs. I am especially skilled in the areas of social science, natural science and language.

I have been employed as a Speech Language Pathologist in public school settings since 1989. I have worked with preschool through 12th grade. I enjoy working with all children, especially elementary. Although I am a speech-language pathologist, I feel confident I can work with students needing assistance in all skill areas. With my own personal experiences and knowledge base, I would be more than capable of helping children improve their academic skills so they can be more successful in the classroom setting.
