Literature Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Acworth, GA

I am a former teacher with 24 years' experience in the classroom. I have taught Georgia Pre K, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades. My Master's in Reading and Literacy enabled me to elevate my Reading instruction. From personal experience with my own children, there seems to be very little differentiation or additional help in the higher grades, so I got my certification in English Language arts grades 6-12. In order to make my own classroom more rigorous, I earned my Gifted endorsement. One on one allows me to target desired expectations while group allows students an opportunity to work with me and have discussion among each other.

I'm friendly and cheerful and like to have discussions with my students about their papers and their other interests. Typically, I'll read over papers, asking questions as I go and making comments as I go along. I do like to mark on papers so that changes can be more easily made. I generally try to think of new and creative ways to explain grammatical concepts and general writing concepts if I'm not being clear. Basically, my tutoring sessions involve a lot of conversation. I do also offer strictly online editing; in that case, I will use Word and create a document with comments. I also use the Track Changes feature so that my clients can see the kinds of changes I've made; I'll add comments explaining why I made those changes. I received my degree in English from an excellent college in the Midwest. While there, I worked as a writing tutor for 3 years and was highly praised for my abili

As an English major, my college experience exposed me to a vast collections of literary styles, eras, and authors. My love and knowledge of literature, both classic and modern, had only increased post-graduation, as I often scour bookstores for good book deals and poetry anthologies. First and foremost, I am passionate about helping children and youth learn, overcome obstacles, and believe in themselves, whether that be academically or otherwise. Over the years, I have learned and had the opportunity to work with and encourage children and teenagers with various behavioral issues, ranging from Aspergers Syndyrome to anxiety and anger issues,so I have a great deal of patience with students whom others consider difficult to work with. Having graduated from the University of North Georgia with a degree in Writing & Publication and a Minor in Mass Communications, I'm confident that the skill

I majored in Literature at Berry College and have taught it to High school students in Fayette County, grades 9-12. I opt for making the material relatable to my students, which causes it to be more interesting and meaningful. When something is relevant, it is a lot more fun and kids are much more willing to want to learn, which is, of course, ideal. I graduated from McIntosh High School in Fayette County and studied English and Secondary Education at Berry College. I student taught for a year at Rome High School before graduating and becoming a substitute teacher in Fayette County. I have completed three long-term substitute positions, two of which put me in charge of an entire classroom with all the responsibilities of a full-time teacher.

I was a Supply instructor for Atlanta Public Schools for approximately eight years, and have a degree in English. I worked at the middle grades level in various subjects, as required, with a primary focus in math. I unfortunately do not have the materials left from my employ, but can tutor using computers, and school materials for reference. The realization that children do well in small group instructional settings, and on an individual tutoring basis, is what I took most from my years in the classroom. My focus is to ascertain the instructional level needed, then instruct for that standpoint. I do not like busywork, but instead look for progress in the individual child. Once the subject is mastered, then it is time to move on to other subjects. The compensation is negotiable depending on the number of children tutored. I also do not set a time frame regarding instruction, as children a
