Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Belton, SC

I have taught Shakespeare in grades 7-12 and on the university level. I was awarded a scholarship where I studied Shakespeare in London for 3 weeks. Student centered instruction is the approach I use in my instruction. That means that the student's needs and learning style direct the way the information will be delivered and activities that will guide the learning. Students learn best by doing, so I only lecture for small amounts of time. I have taught for 12 years in both a private and public school in Greenville, SC. I am currently teaching at Anderson University but in the classroom and on-line. In grades 7-12 I have taught English literature and writing as well as drama courses. At Anderson University I teach English 101, 102, and 205.

I completed my undergraduate degree in Dramatic Arts in 2011. I have directed several theatrical production and dramatic scenes. Additionally, I have worked 1 on 1 with many students on dramatic pieces and monologues for auditions and competitions. I also have served as a judge for several speech and drama competitions (including the National Forensic League). I currently teach Public Speaking on the college level. For drama and public speaking, I prefer to be highly interactive and enable the student to discover and create his/her own art with knowledgeable guidance and lots of discussion and performance experimentation. I like to use a series of techniques and exercises to build confidence and creativity in the performer.

Relaxed but exacting. I have tutored writing at the college level since 1985 when I finished a formal course in tutoring methods. Since then, I have tutored writing and other subjects for people as young as 12 through college-age. For 15 years, I also taught college writing courses including basic writing, English composition, research composition, creative writing, and advanced poetry writing. I am the recipient of a Nation/Discovery award for poetry, and my poems have appeared in many literary magazines and some anthologies. I recently put out a novel. Additionally, I scored 198 out of 200 on the literature Praxis examination, which is a national teacher certification exam. In addition to teaching writing, I ran an interdisciplinary learning center for 11 years. There, I hired, trained and supervised tutors in many disciplines--usually at least 90 per semester. The Center normally

I have a passion for helping others and I live to learn. I realized at a very young age the power of education. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in International business in August 2009. I am an MBA candidate and my expected graduation date is February 2011. Throughout my studies I have gained extensive knowledge in a variety of subjects including, English, Psychology, Biology/Sciences, Mathematics, and business. I tutored 17 students in math my freshman year of college. I worked with them to develop problem solving skills and self sufficiency. I led several group projects to success. I delegated tasks, monitored group progress, scheduled meetings, led discussions, and motivated team members to achieve success.• I strive to help students create an appetitite for learning. I also understand that each child learns differently. I have patience and I believe that every child can achie

I love teaching and am passionate about literature and art. I believe that all children have the ability to learn, and it's a teacher's responsibility to engage each student in the subject matter. I am patient, organized, and caring. My goal is to provide a constructive learning environment and have fun with the subject matter. I was motivated at an early age by an inspiring teacher to do my very best at my schoolwork. She had the ability to encourage her students through fun learning activities and confidence building. I aim to channel that memory and truly make a difference in my students' lives. I believe that there are never weaknesses in students, just challenges. As a graduate of a prestigious University, I was challenged to get into the competitive program and motivated to earn a bachelors degree in the field of Graphic Design. I have always had a passion for art and literature. I

After ten years of teaching English and special education (resource and self-contained classes), I have a renewed passion in helping students enhance their reading competency and confidence. My classroom experience and my recent training in Orton-Gillingham reading instruction have equipped me with sharper tools and diverse techniques to help students at any level to become better readers. Although I believe there are many strengths in both NATURAL READING programs and in ORTON-GILLINGHAM approaches, I believe that the best teaching style incorporates a variety of methods and taylors them to the individual. I also believe in strong encouragement and measurable progress so that the student can map his own improvement and obtain confidence in his abilities.

I have worked at summer camps for children ages 8-16 throughout my entire life, and love making a difference in a child's life. I am very patient and have a positive attitude. I believe that students learn in different ways, and it is our job as educators to help enrich them for the future. When given the proper instructions and guidance I firmly believe that any child can succeed if just one person believes in them. I believe in all of my students, and do my best to help them reach their goals. I have earned two bachelor degrees, one in Information Systems and Business Processes and the other in Communications and Media. I believe that education is very important and am now continuing my education, I plan to receive my Masters in Higher Education in May 2012. I have worked as a counselor at a young female enrichment program for the last two years, and enjoyed tutoring in Math, Scien

I will tailor my teaching to the individual student. One thing I've learned in my education program is that some kids learn visually while others learn auditorily, and so on. I believe in critical thinking; that is one skill that is lacking in school and in society generally. The task of the teacher, ultimately, is to get their student to that point, where he or she is challenging his or her mental models or basic assumptions concerning reality, with the tools the teacher has given the student. I've been teaching informally most of my adult life. I earned a 193 out of a possible 200 on a Praxis test that covered content knowledge of my subject area (English literature), and 179 in a comprehensive middle school language arts test, and am enrolled in Capella University, where I'm currently pursuing a master's of science degree in K-12 studies. Teaching has been my passion for a long time.

I love English, and am comfortable with literary theory, paper writing, literary research, and topic evaluation. I like to share this passion with my students and show them ways to relate to the material they are studying. I enjoy helping others learn and showing them how to use their abilities to excel. I am easy to get along with and encourage students to view learning as fun and interesting. I am able to explain things in a variety of ways depending on the student's personality, age and learning style. I hope to share learning techniques that students can take with them in the future. Overall, my goal through tutoring is to show a student that with self-knowledge and confidence, they can conquer any assignment with ease. I hold a bachelor's degree in English, and during school always held a 3.5 or above GPA. I pay close attention to spelling and grammatical accuracy, and am familiar w

I enjoy helping students build on their strengths and overcome weaknesses in writing. I believe the key to a stimulating composition stems from the interest the writer has in the subject. Equally important is technical aspect of writing. Using a subject of interest to apply the rules of writing is the best way to shake writer's block and increase a student's comfort in English composition. I recently finished my BS in English Literature at Towson University in Maryland. In the years I spent at Towson, I built a portfolio to include samples of my writing. I am interested in helping others build their writing skills to communicate creatively and effectively.

I love helping children improve academically. All children can realize success if given the opportunity and right tools. Realizing that all children learn differently, I employ a variety of teaching styles to help each child understand in his or her own way. I believe that all students deserve individual attention from a caring educator invested in his or her success, a belief that I encompass in my teaching. I have 4 years of tutoring experience in a variety of subjects including reading, writing, math, science, and study skills. I have experience working with students of diverse ages and backgrounds, and enjoy helping these students excel in their education. I graduated from an Ivy League school with a BA in government with a GPA of over 3.8.

I feel that I am very much a hands-on learner, but I also enjoy engaging the minds of those that I educate. I enjoy researching new and more relevant ways to teach the applicable generation under my watch. Also, I feel that learning occurs outside of the classroom/main learning environment, and that as a mentor/teacher, I am able to pass on various types of lessons. My current place of study models this truth for me; by opening up their lives to their students. This shows them that life is a series of lessons; one that must be taken just as seriously. When engaged in a teaching opportunity, I attempt to be pleasant, passionate, and humorous. Above all, I desire those listening to enjoy the privilege it is to learn. I've always known that I wanted to work with children and adolescents. Prior to college, I was chosen to enroll in a course that helps those desiring to work in education or a
