My comments on tutoring Poetry : Received 1st Place for Unpublished Poetry in the 2008 Tulsa Public Library's Creative Writing Contest.

After receiving a Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Georgia in 2000, I went on to study Poetry with renowned poets Bill Knott and John Skoyles at Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. Upon finishing my thesis I moved to Oklahoma to be close to my family, where I continued pursuing my literary interests by volunteering my services to read for international literary journal Nimrod, published out of the University of Tulsa. Currently, I read for Nimrod Magazine and tutor.

As a long-time instructor in English, both in public schools and in higher education, I have encountered many students of many different backgrounds, learning styles, and ages, in the classroom and online. I have taught in many areas of English-related courses. These courses have included writing, literature, reading, public speaking, report writing, film and humanities, and other liberal arts courses. Currently, I teach at a regional University in Business Communications, tutor, and substitute teach in my community.
I especially value working with students by "starting where they are" and building a learning path together to reach the goals that the student has set for himself or herself. Meeting the student's needs -- rather than achieving my goals for your student -- comes first. My passion is in learning from each student first what those needs are. Then, by listening and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

With an understanding of the need for education, I have a bachelors degree in Management Information systems, a Masters degree in Business Management and am currently pursing a second Masters degree in Psychology. As a result of my work related experience and educational background, I have extensive knowledge in the areas of reading, writing, and technology. During the summer months, I am an active youth guidance counselor and teacher. My desire is to encourage, train, educate, and motive our youth of today so that they are active and productive members of society.
I love teaching and working with youth. I believe that children have various ways of learning so it is very important to cater to the childs learing style.

As a long-time student, I understand that a large part of a student's education occurs inside and outside the classroom, much of which is beneficial in a discussion format. I currently hold two undergraduate degrees in English, with emphases in literature and grammar, and two graduate degrees in Linguistics with an emphasis in English meaning. Throughout my education, I have worked with native and non-native speakers to develop and improve written and oral English abilities, acted as a university-sponsored supplemental instructor for students struggling with coursework, tutored students privately and in classroom settings in preparation for GED testing, and taught classes on various realms of language.
I have developed a style of teaching that allows students to focus on their strengths and use them to incorporate different methods to overcoming their weaknesses. I believe that lea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While in high school, I discovered my love for math and began tutoring classmates in that area. My interest in writing developed during my educational career at The University of Tulsa, where I had courses in advanced exposition and argumentation and writing for the professions along with literature classes in the areas of Russian and British Literature of the 18th Century, Eastern Literature, and Greek Literature. I also took courses in Spanish, including a composition course. I currently have contracts to publish 2 manuscripts in 2011, one being a compilation of poetry and the other being a research paper dealing with depression stemming from exercise withdrawal.
I feel that we all have the aptitude to learn, yet each individual discovers that aptitude in a different manner. My first and most important goal is always to convey this to the student in an effort to let them know I b ... read more

I believe the best way to help a child learn is to, "follow the child". I try to let the child find his own answers and simply be a cataylst between the materials and the child. It is in this way the child gains confidence and independence through the learning process. I am patient, laid back, and passionate about education. I find great joy in seeing my students become excited about their studies. I like to help my students think outside the box and be creative with their ideas.
I am a graduate of a private small private college with a high standard of academic excellence. I balanced my school work with playing college volleyball, therefore I know what it takes to be dedicated and work hard. I hold a bachelor's degree in History as well as teaching certification in the Montessori Method for ages 3-6 yrs. I have certification in Southern Appalachian Ecology earned from the T ... read more

For eight years I worked as a full-time writing tutor at Tulsa Community College. Tutoring everything from basic grammar and writing concepts to how to write composition and research papers, I’ve helped students from all backgrounds with widely different academic and career goals. I also have twelve years experience teaching in the college classroom. In 2008 I undertook specialized tutor training through the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) at Northeastern State University in Tahlequah to enhance my tutoring skills. In 2009, I earned the CRLA Master Tutor certificate.
