Experience Summary
I have tutored many people in English Composition I and II, from community colleges to major universities. I work with (and have experience with) students as early as 5th grade. I cover all subjects related to Language Arts, Creative Writing, Composition and Journalism. I do qualify for my teaching certificate in Oklahoma to teach Language Arts at any grade level. I love working with students who need the most help. I am patient, kind, and humorous (when possible). It does not matter if I have to explain the same things a million times over, so long as the student grasps the information. I can tutor students 1-3 times a week for 2-3 hours/session or I can proofread/edit a paper if that is all that is needed. I can help any student improve their grade(s) no matter how much, or little, assistance is needed. I am proficient in MLA, APA and AP formats.
Teaching Style
Everyone is an expert at something. I happen to be an expert writer. I know the people I help learn to read and/or write are experts at something. My goal is to help people enough that they no longer need a tutor. I am patient, understanding, sometimes humorous, and always kind. I love helping people learn to write. I never write a word for any student. My job is not to write for them, but to teach them to write for themselves. I usually tutor in individual sessions, but can do group lessons if needed.

I love reading my favorite authors and writing poetry and short stories.
