My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : I am able to teach the strategies and techniques that are necessary to write persuasive as well as informative eassays.

I am an Early Childhood Educator and I have been in this field for 20 plus years. I am also a private tutorer. I am very invested in my students accomplishments and I encourage them to believe in themselves. I go above and beyond to make sure that I have done all that I could to make sure that I have done my part as a teacher or tutorer to help my students to feel confident.

More About This Tutor...

I am a University of Chicago graduate in English with a minor in Environmental Studies. I have always had a strong interest in and affinity for mathematics and the sciences, particularly Earth Sciences, and I am very familiar with Environmental Law in particular. I particularly enjoy reading (thus the English major) - poetry above all - and playing chess (for which I am also available as a tutor).

As a teacher, one of the most important things I can do is create a community of learners, which helps me determine how to assess my students. Creating a community of learners allows me to open up the door of connection between my students and myself.I have earned a degree in Journalism and finishing up with my degree and certification in English and Secondary Education. During the last eight years, I have been tutoring inner city students in English, writing,math, and reading.
One of the greatest joys of teaching is seeing each one of my students grow as an individual and academically.I have always wanted to be a teacher since I can remember. I wanted to give back to my students what was given to me. "A chance to to learn and grow". For me, it seemed only natural to obtain a career in the area of my first love "TEACHING". I teach because it's who I am and what I do. When I see my ... read more

During my undergrad, I was part of the mentoring program called P.O.W.E.R. which tutored and mentored in-coming freshmen girls and boys. P.O.W.E.R. stands for Peers Offering Ways to Excellent Results. I had a group of 10 girls whom I met with weekly and tutored them in any subject they were having trouble with. I even went to some of their homes to tutor them, if they could not meet during school. I was on the Honor's List with a perfect 4.0 GPA three years in a row. Because of my extensive background in English Lit, I am able to critique and break down literature in all its forms.
Because I am a part-time college teacher, I apply my teaching style to both my classes to keep it constant. I offer tutoring during my office hours and I have learned to be patient with my students, since no one learns the same way and they learn at their own pace. Since becoming a teacher, I have openly ... read more

I am very passionate about teaching, especially on a one-to-one individual level. I am a firm believer in objective-based strategic teaching. I like working individually with a student to establish obtainable objectives, and then mapping and teaching specific strategies to obtain those objectives.I've been trained in a wide variety of techniques and practices, researched based teaching methods with proven results. Students who are struggling in a traditional classroom or even who just need to be challenged more usually just need some personal attention and a new approach to their education. I believe in helping all students experience academic success, whatever strategy or form that might take.
In high school, I volunteered numerous hours at a local elementary school tutoring students in reading and math. I majored in English teaching in college, was trained in all the aspects of ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The advantage of one-on-one tutoring is the productive, personal relationship that arises between tutor and student. As a tutor, I use this relationship to make lessons more fun and more significant. Rather than providing a mundane and meaningless list of facts, I explain the significance of the material by linking specific principles to larger themes. Towards these ends, I adjust my tutoring style to meet each student's academic and personal needs. I listen to my students, encouraging them to ask questions about the material I present. My background in mathematics enables me to provide difficult challenges for even the most able student, but I am also patient and thorough enough to get a struggling student back on track.
While pursuing my honors degree in mathematics at the University of Chicago, I supported myself through numerous tutoring jobs. I have taught mathematics to stude ... read more
