Composition Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Abbott, TX

My style is what works for the person I am working with. I am opened to sharing my ideas, but listening to each individual and what works for them. I have worked with various needy students who have been classified as learning disabled, or those who know they are in need for assistance. My experiences vary, as I worked with older children in filling out applications for jobs and to prepare for jobs. I also, have worked with many adults on writing papers for college preparation or with helping their children on writing tasks. I have worked with young children on phonics and reading readiness.

My teaching style is fun and engaging. You must find what engages a student. Everyone has a different learning style. My teaching style utilizes any and all manipulatives necessary to engage a student. I also review student data to determine what learning gaps exist. I have eighteen years of experience: ten at the missle school level, and eight at the high school level. My experience includes teaching "at-risk" students from a wide variety of backgrounds and situations. I have taught sheltered, regular Pre-AP and AP. In addition, I serve as the Social Studies Department Chair. I write curriculum, build after-school tutoring programs, and design effective professional development for my teachers.

I believe in facilitating the learning process by asking questions and exploring answers with the student, thus teaching him or her the process of discovering correct answers and affirming his or her capacity for independent action, initiative, and responsibility. I work together with each student to identify his or her primary learning style and then incorporate appropriate exercises to reinforce the content. From my elementary school Swahili classes in Kenya, I have always been fascinated by other languages. During the past few years, I have been able to combine my passion for teaching with this interest in language study. By exploring more than 5 foreign languages and working as an editor, I have laid a solid foundation for sharing my love of language with others. I have taught Greek and Spanish in addition to tutoring English as a Second Language to adult business professionals for m
