Writing/Editing is my first love that I want to share.

I have more than 10 years experience working in Journalism. My BA is specifically in News/Edit. I love to write and edit and enjoy helping others express themselves. I look forward to the oppurtunity to do so. I enjoy working with people and will always try my best to make a person feel comfortable with me. I like to make people laugh and feel that I am friendly and nice. I went into Journalism because I want to educate the world and make it a better place. I really like to share my knowledge with others. You never stop learning, so I hope to also learn from my students since just like everyone else, I do not know everything. What I do know is that I feel I can pass on my experience and knowledge to help people open up their minds and see how beautiful the world realy is.

English Tutor: Critical reading and writing skills

I tend to have a hands-on approach to all of my tutoring methods, regardless of the subject. I want to make learning fun and take the stress out of tackling a challenging subject. I attempt to make any subject relatable to the student I am tutoring, and to provide multiple examples that are easy to understand. I break down seemingly complicated processes into simple and easy to remember steps.
My name is Jessica Grilli and I am currently a student of the University of California at Davis. I am majoring in English and minoring in Sociology and Education, as my future goal is to become a high school English teacher. I have seven years of experience tutoring students of all ages from elementary school to college level. I am great with kids, having grown up with seven brothers and sisters, and I have a passion for education. My areas of expertise are tutoring in critical reading and wr ... read more

My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : I primarily work with creative writers in my professional life.

I assess the student's level of mastery by listening to parents, communicating with the student (in whatever appropriate way needed) and then doing some basic testing. Once the student is assessed, I design a learning environment and activities that coincide with the student's specific strengths, while adding some elements of challenge. I tend to work in a very focused way for 10-15 minutes, and then add in tactile activities (like Bannana Grams for example) for 10 minutes or so, in order to maintain the student's attention. Children and youth who are struggling to read and write get patient assistance to learn the words correctly. My work will improve writing techniques (including essays and basic writing skills), reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and literary creativity. For younger children I work with acquiring reading skills, word recognition, pattern recognition, spel ... read more

Success isn't give, it's earned. You can Succeed!

I have taught Social Studies and Language Arts at the middle school and high school levels in Missouri for three years. I have worked with students that are considered at-risk, ELD, and students with special needs (including Autism, remedial studies, learning disabilities, and emotional disturbance disorders). I hold current and valid teaching credentials in both California and Missouri. I am in the last eight months of my Masters Degree at National University for teaching students with special needs. I also hold a Masters in Education in Best Teaching Practices, and Bachelors of Science in Social Studies Education.
I utilize a variety of instructional techniques to help each diverse learner succeed and excel. I believe the most imperative part of teaching is to facilitate a positive rapport with my students and have clear structure for them to work with.

Art tutor, Homework tutor, Learning facilitator!

I have worked in art and graphic design professionally for the past 6 years, however I have been freelancing and creating art for myself since 1998. I previously worked for the Hayward Area Historical Society, which included assisting in design for exhibits as well as some teaching to visiting school groups. I have also been asked to teach small groups of children about art, or help with general homework on numerous occasions.
I work best one-on-one or in small groups, I can adjust my style to what a person needs after speaking with them for a while and understanding how they learn. I've found the best way to teach someone a new way of looking at something is to understand how they currently perceive it.

Hate busywork? Me too! Why not make it MATTER?!

I began my teaching career even before graduating High School. I started volunteering my time with homework help and study skills at the local Boys and Girls Club when I was 16 followed by teaching Remedial English to a small group of ELL students at a partnering elementary school. During college, I continued my passion by joining an organization that teaches life and social skills to developmentally delayed young adults. After graduating from SFSU, I persued my TEFL certification which allowed me to live and teach in China for 6 months, while developing fun an innovative curriculum that allowed young students to start acquiring English skills from scratchet. Since then, I have continued designing hands-on curriculum for English, Literature, Science, Math, Dance, Visual Arts, Life Skills, and College Prep. I have also been a manager, coordinator, coach, and director at several after ... read more

TUTOR from the EAST relocates to the WEST!!!

I have taught elementary, middle school , high school, college, and students in adult education courses. I have taught in rural, suburban, and urban settings for both private and public institutions.

I have a passion for teaching, knowledge, learning from others, and life-learning.

K-12 Successful Special Needs or English Language Tutor

My passion in life is teaching, where I can tutor students on a 1:1 basis! My teaching / tutoring experience includes classroom high school teaching, where my specialties were Math, Science, and English. Also, I tutored middle-schoolers in ESL, Social Studies, and Literature. I enjoy tutoring adukt learners on English and Citizenship. And finally, I have taught private piano lessons and music reading.
I present concepts in a variety of ways, such as: "hands on," visually, problem-solving, and inquiry-based. I reinforce the concepts each time we have a session. I tutor with a style that is accepting, positive, and where my student's feel comfortable enough to ask questions and become actively involved. All my students are successful learners who have fun learning!
