Have taken two Creative Writing poetry courses. Knowledgeable of classic/contemporary poets. Passionate about writing/reading poetry. I recently graduated from Gordon College with a degree in English Literature and a concentration in Creative Writing. I manage two personal blogs, which include my non-fiction stories, poetry, and artwork, and I have published 5 different articles for various Gordon journals. In high school, I took all Honors English courses, and received college credit for my English AP Exam. At Gordon College, my essay writing abilities, as well as my breadth of creative writing, rapidly developed as I typically had 3-4 writing assignments a week. Writing has become a hobby and a career path for me, and I help others write, edit, and consolidate their ideas.

Deborah L - Kittery, ME 03904 (7.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $58.50/hr.
My teaching style was both original and personal.
I have had the opportunity to travel to many parts of the world, and I brought those varied experiences to my teaching.
The students would ask me to tell them stories of my travels.
This was partly to get off the subject matter, but they also enjoyed hearing about different parts of the world as qwell. I taught Language Arts from grades 7-12 for 27 years.
I maintained a classroom,organized my curriculum as well as
doing interdisciplinary projects.
I retired from active teaching in 1999, but I did a brief
period of tutoring with a young child with academic disabilities.
I would really enjoy teaching again and would appreciate any opportunity to achieve this

John W - Eliot, ME 03903 (9.3 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Most of my career has involved some level of teachng or training. I trained new volunteers during the Peace Corps, I taught rural Tunisian families how to use available resources to improve their lives, training natural education instructors and volunteers at the Wells Reserve, traqining and coordinating volunteers within my roles as Executive Director, completing all course requirements for my Maine Teacher Certification, obtaining Ed. Tech III, Highly Qualified status in Maine, and substitute teaching, and now in my role as Title I, Ed. Tech II at Valley View Community School in Farmington, NH where I work extensively with children with special needs. I believe that questions are more powerful teaching tools than simply delivering answers. I do not wish to teach my students WHAT to think; my goal is to help students learn HOW to think, and to develop a pssion for learning which extend

Marianne M - Rye, NH 03870 (10.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have gained valuable experience in the classroom while studying Leadership: the importance of effective communication, listening skills, and persuasion. I am a calm and caring person, and am patient and creative while teaching. My students feel comfortable with me and I am able to bring out the best in them because of their comfort level. As a Magna Cum Laude graduate of Northeastern University, I have gained experience in persuasive writing, research papers and presentations. I have tutored on a volunteer basis for English as a Second Language.

Justin G - Dover, NH 03820 (12.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As an undergraduate I worked at the mathematics tutor lab in our department. As a PhD student I both taught and assisted in the teaching of mathematics courses at the university level. Also I have experience with privately tutoring elementary, jr. high and high school students. I help point to the truth, aiding the student in discovery. I try to avoid being overly didactic, and prefer to work by asking questions. The most satisfying thing about teaching is being able to witness and participate in the process of comprehension.

Michelle W - Dover, NH 03820 (13 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I love being able to help a student or peer develop and implement new knowledge. I like to take the approach of teaching skill not just content. I am patient and easy going and will try my hardest to ensure that each individual student be treated as such. I thrive in the one on one teaching style and I hope to help each student reach his or her top potential. I would love to help other young writers find their way through the endless maze of grammar, spelling, and help them generate intriguing writing, not just correct writing. I like to think of grammar and spelling as certain tools to use and teach but I like to help a student get to a point where they can be proud and confident in their writing. I graduated in 2009 with my BA in English and am currently pursuing my masters in writing. While at the undergraduate level I learned about all manner of skill in writing from research papers

Andrew F - Arundel, ME 04046 (16.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.00/hr.
I've always enjoyed helping someone else. There is a certain satisfaction after seeing the look on their face of appreciation. I believe that one on one assistance is very helpful for students who are struggling because sometimes they are afriad to raise questions in the classroom, in fear of only them having trouble. As a recent graduate from Salem State College, I have earned my BA degree in English, with a minor in History. Writing and reading is something I am very passionate about. I have learned different forms of writing, such as analytical, persuassive, reading responses, creative, and so on. With that experience, I have learned grammatical rules for writing that was very important to my success. I have never tutored, but I feel that with my knowledge or writing and reading can be useful to someone who is having difficulties in that area. I work very well one on one and be

I love teaching and interacting with my students. It is important to me that I understand what way(s) each student learns best and cater my teaching style to them. I believe that every student has the potential to succeed if given the right opportunity. I am currently a high school English teacher teaching all levels of students at a local high school. In the past I have also been involved with teaching online courses. I earned my undergraduate degree from UVM and my MS from UNE. I am currently certified to teach English grade 5-12 in NH.

William W - Exeter, NH 03833 (20.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $41.50/hr.
The temptation as instructor is to simply restructure the way in which a student learns in order to fit your view, and those I have helped encourage such behavior. Guidance, suggestions, and allusions as to how a student can improve and understand is a better alternative. Simply doing the work for the student has little value in regards to education. A fine balance must be struck between open ended comments of little use and high jacking creativity through re-working large portions of work. My policy is to make the student aware of their shortcomings, explain my reasoning, and use enigmatic reserve in telling them how to correct errors. Unless the mistake is simple, I hold back on literally telling them what to do. . As an undergraduate, my focus for studies in English were both Critical Literary Analysis and Creative Writing. Analytical writing was stressed heavily, giving me the a

Louis S - Saco, ME 04072 (21 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have 12 years of full time high school English teaching experience. Beyond that, I taught theatre at the college level for four years and worked as a teaching artist in New York City for four more. I earned my Master of Fine Arts in Theatre from Florida Atlantic University, graduating with highest honors. My Bachelor of Science in English/Speech/Theatre helped me to establish a career in education that is characterized by a driving passion for excellence and a creative learning technique that is second to none. My teaching style adapts to the needs of each individual student. I am very specific in terms of direction, thorough when it comes to facts and details, challenging to promote excellence and fair in evaluation. I encourage discussion and gear specific material to meet an individuals current level of ability while allowing them to reach for their highest goal. Learning can also b

Jill S - Epping, NH 03042 (24.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $40.50/hr.
My skills, which I learned in the Education Bachelor's degree program at the University of Connecticut, emphasize the development of critical thinking and clear expression in student work. My experience includes working with struggling students in every area, from Advanced Placement to non-traditional learners, so I incorporate many different methologies to help students succeed. As an expert in research skills myself, I can also provide research guidance to students. But my most consistent skill is my ability to help every student find their voice and access their ideas. I have been helping students improve their skills since 1989, and there is nothing that thrills me more than a student's "aha!" moment, when everything they are trying to learn just clicks for them. For the past several years I have taught introductory critical thinking and basic essay-writing; students come to me whe

Kevin P - Amesbury, MA 01913 (24.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
With over 18 years of experience in Education I am capable of teaching to a variety of students and learning styles. My particular areas of expertise are composition, grammar, English literature (Shakespeare specialization), Latin, and American history. I am a working editor and writer and believe that the ability to communicate clearly and effectively (a skill I teach to all of my students) provides the foundation for all future learning. It has been my experience that most students appreciate an opportunity to sit quietly and think carefully over a problem. Time for a short burst of creative and intense scrutiny is a rare luxury for most of my highly-stimulated students. My philosophy is that learning is a student's job and they should give that job the attention it deserves. I encourage my students to explore while learning but believe in providing a structure and models in which to
