Writing is one of my top subjects!

I studied English Literature at the University of Houston, with an emphasis on Gender Studies & Literary Theory for several decades as I raised my two sons. I was twice awarded the Gentile Scholarship for upper division literature majors. As an undergraduate, I was allowed to participate in several graduate seminars, including Modern Literary Theory & Feminist Theory.
A classroom is a collaborative effort.

"A writer is a reader moved to emulation." - Saul Bellow

I've never really tutored before outside of helping my classmates, but even still I excel when it comes to teaching others tactics for reading and writing. I am extremely patient and studious when it comes to helping others learn, especially children. I graduated a year earlier than I should have due to skipping a grade because of my reading and writing skills. I took two years of AP English (Rhetoric and Literature) in high school and scored a 4 (out of a maximum score of 5) on my AP exam. I also scored around a 1700 on my SAT, mainly excelling in the Reading and Writing portion.

My comments on tutoring Writing : Degree in History with associated reading, writing, composition skills

Socratic method and exploring a student's learning strengths/differentiation
I have been a member of the work force for over 45 years. I received my high school diploma from Strake Jesuit College Preparatory in 1970, and my BA Cum Laud in History from the University of St. Thomas in 2002. In addition, I have been trained and state tested in Social Study education at Houston Community College. I would like to gain experience in working with students so that I might pursue teaching as a career in the future.

My passion is to help others the best I know how.

I currently work at a daycare. I have experience working with elementary students K-5. Even though I am not a certified teacher, I still have a bachelor degree in English. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education. I have worked as a camp counselor for youth camps, and as a child advocate. My next step is to get my Masters degree as a Speech Pathologists. I work with so many children with speech issues. I think that would be a great major for me to get into. I have worked as a phonics teacher as well. I have help students to pronounciate their letters and sounds so they can be better speakers.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have over three years of professional writing experience. After graduating from the University of Texas at Dallas with my degree in Creative Writing I went on to serve as the President of the Houston Writers Guild for a full year and now serve on the Board of Directors at the Gulf Coast Federation of Writers. I have performed Freelance Editing since my graduation and led numerous Critique Circles for each organization I’ve worked with, learning to balance criticism with encouragement for optimal improvement.
I am a very hands on teacher and my preferred method is to have the student read their work aloud while I follow along and edit. It's remarkable how much they begin to catch on their own. This is followed through with my own take on their work, pointing out the errors they missed and suggesting improvements, always in an encouraging manner.

Special Needs/ ESL/ Elementary Tutor

I have worked with children, teens and adults in a variety of capacities over the course of many years providing many personal care and personalized tutoring services. I have an interest in languages and lived abroad as a child and young adult, an experience that continues to inform my view of the interesting and diverse perspectives I have encountered among those in my circle. It has contributed to a passion for advocacy and a desire to build community that is meaningful, sustainable and equitable. My passion for research and for solving problems of all kinds has enabled me to work in more settings and in more varied capacities than might otherwise be the case and I believe that learning, so far from being a task that exists in isolation, is actually the process of challenging and changing the self, hopefully for the better.
I am a warm, compassionate and supportive tutor who h ... read more

Let me Guide Your Child

Having taught for more than five years as a certified teacher, I feel that I have what it takes to be an educator. Understanding the psyche of the student is of prime significance to me, which helps me in directing the teaching strategies and techniques. In order to let the student realize the significance of learning, I try to design a curriculum that is application based.
I prefer that the student understands the purpose behind learning. In order to achieve my goal, I spend quality time in talking and developing an effective communication platform. I avoid doing rote learning. Therefore I make the worksheets and lesson plan as application based as I can. Some techniques and strategies are also employed on occasions.

Writing is one of my top subjects! Elementary and secondary

In my experience, successful students are the ones who embrace learning with a multitude of strategies to choose from. I have always been a visual learner and theatre arts performer, so I tend to gravitate toward strategies that have roots through visual learning and teamwork which allows the students to learn by creating and practicing with others. I have amassed a great deal of knowledge through continuing education and real-world teaching experience. It has allowed me to perfect the way I deliver instruction to students by utilizing a variety of teaching strategies, tailoring my approaches to deliver the best outcome for my students. My students journal, create thinking maps, and use improve and role play in a variety of situations. Most importantly, I encourage dialogue among students and teacher allowing students to teach and learn from each other. The later allows the stude ... read more
