Belief in the capability of every writer and reader.

I recently completed a degree in Creative Writing with a focus on poetry, fiction, literature, and literary and cultural theory. Completion of a thesis focusing on the deep investigation of language and narrative as they function in Postmodern Women's Poetics, with a corresponding lecture presented at Goddard College on the manifestation of the gender binary through the entrance into language and the symbolic order, and how the semioclasm of postmodern text and the interrogation of classical feminism might open up space for a new non hierarchical access to language. I also just finished 2+ years of interning at the St. Marks Poetry Project in New York City, as well as occasional involvement at Poets House, Bluestockings Bookstore Collective & Activist Center, ABC No Rio Zine Library, and the publication Showpaper, working among some of the most respected writers, artists and teachers in ... read more

I'm patient and listen to the student to see what they get and don't get about the premise of the lesson. Then we get to it. Careful reinforcement of the Correct method will ensure Remembrance and Results. Also, Lessons must be approached within the context of the Big Picture. Students need to realize that there are no pointless or forgettable sections. Basically, communication is key followed by practice, reinforcement, more practice. Learning can be at pace, but laziness and whining will not be tolerated.
I have a Bachelor of Art in History, predominantly American. I also pursued Engineering for my first year and plan to go back to College. I have completed through Calculus II and am also experienced in hands-on mechanical. I have limited tutoring experience, but I know I can listen and respond. Any experience came from helping others in classes during College.

My teaching style is unique to each student's indivdual needs. I take time to recognize my students learning style and provide the need materials or teaching style based their needs. I prefer tutoring to working in a classroom because I can give each student the specialized one-on-one time they need to help not only keep them on track with their school's requirements, but also introduce them to better study habits that could help them excel in the classroom when they do return to school.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth with a degree in English. I take pride in my ability to properly spell and use grammar efficiently. My experience writing reports and technical writing (grants and proposals) helped me come to the conclusion that people have a hard time expressing themselves. Thus, I decided to help people in their writing so they could explain how they were feeling, or just to get the great ideas they had in their minds down on paper. Using my creativity and skill for writing I have been able to use my knowledge and persuasion to write eloquently and convincingly.
Working with people has developed as a passion in my life. From an early age I have found myself looking for ways to improve the lives of people around me. I believe that everyone should have an equal chance to reach their academic potential no matter how far aw ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My passion as a teacher is working with children. I have a passion for education that I hope to show through my teaching and share with all of my students. I believe every student learns differently and has strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to get to know my student's leaning styles and help them develop their strengths and use those strengths to improve the areas that are more difficult for them. I believe in Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences and I use the intelligences as often as possible in my lesson plans. I believe that there are many ways to learn and some thing that works for one student might not work for all. Through my teaching style, I will help my student's have a passion for learning.
I have a unique resume of teaching experience. I have worked in a number of settings from pre-school to teaching adults. I have taught in public schools, privat ... read more

I have a relaxed teaching style that makes my students feel comfortable and interested in learning. I believe I transfer my passion for my subject to my students. I am able to draw on my extensive work and “real-world” experience, which students seem to appreciate. I have an informal manner, yet I expect much of my students. I expect them to do the work required and to have good attendance at the teaching sessions. I teach best through “hands-on” methods, allowing students to learn by doing.
I have worked most of my adult life in education or journalism, and I was able to combine my two passions as a journalism professor at the college level for several years.

A Little Bit About Me...

While attending Brown University, I volunteered as a tutor at Providence Summerbridge, an enrichment program for inner-city middle school students. I realized that teaching was my passion and became a full-time ESL teacher at an elementary school in Washington, DC while earning masters degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from American University. During the past three years I have been the 5th grade reading teacher at a school, which is part of the highest performing school system in DC. I raised my students' reading test scores from the 14th percentile to the 38th percentile in just one year.

I very much have a "hands-on" teaching style. I am a visual learner myself, so my teaching style reflects that methodology. I explain the concept, demonstrate the process, reintroduce the steps and then allow my students to practice, practice, practice while offering guidance, suggestions, and positive reinforcement. I am very aware that all students are different. What I have come to learn is that with patience and the desire to truly want each child to succeed, all students can learn. I am a veteran so I pride myself on being organized and disciplined. I am also a volunteer in nursing homes so I consider myself to be compassionate, patient and understanding.
I have been in Education for over 20 years. Most recently I have been a substitute teacher in all subject areas and grade levels. I have a strong Science background and I am a published author so I am proficient in Reading/ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I thoroughly enjoy working one-on-one with students so that we can start a dialogue of questions and suggestions that is beneficial to the student's understanding of the subject matter. I believe in order to be a strong writer, one must increase their literacy by reading literature of substance, while also striving to write whenever possible and in any capacity. It is important to develop an appreciation for the art of good writing, and I can only hope that my own enthusiasm for composition will infect my students with the same sort of love for creative and analytical writing. In general, my teaching style is organic to better fit an individual student's needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a progressive educator, I believe in attainment of the standard benchmarks by individualized methods, utilitizng a spectrum of teaching modalities. My personal affect is cheerful and professional, although I believe that learning should be fun, and with me, it is.
Prior to my second career in the field of service to at-risk senior citizens, I taught English for four years at Westport High School. Following the reduction in force made necessary by budgetary constraints, I taught for ten years at the Crystal Springs School in Assonet, MA as a Special Needs teacher. While rewarding, I missed the challenge of more literary pursuits and began teaching evening classes at a local communuity-based organization. My tutoring experience had its inception in that setting.
