Professional journalist and magazine writer

Professional journalist and magazine writer with experience writing for numerous national publications and large newspapers, including US News & World Report, The Miami Herald and the Columbia Journalism Review. I've also served as the editor of local newspapers in Florida and New York. Clear, concise writing is my life's work. I have experience with several elementary reading programs, including intensive phonics programs like the Riggs Institute's 'Writing and Spelling Road to Reading and Thinking' that can be used to help students who are not reading at grade level.
I start with high expectations for the student, and believe in the importance of explaining to the student what is to be accomplished during the lesson. We then proceed logically through the lesson, taking the student from his level to a much higher level of skill and understanding over a short period of time.

Teacher, Tutor, Editor, Study Coach

I love teaching and learning! I have degrees in English and law, and have over ten years' experience teaching and tutoring in many subjects. I enjoy teaching students at all levels, from struggling learners to second language learners to doctoral candidates. My forte is research and writing, and I am familiar with APA, MLA, and Bluebook format. I can take a good paper and make it great! I work as a teacher and tutor at Lynn University's Writing Center.
I tailor my teaching style to individual needs. I like to use Powerpoints, interactive quizzes, and online resources such as quiz flash cards to enhance my tutoring, and if I notice an area of weakness I will find exercises to address the problem. I can also help with study skills.

PARENTS - I 'M HERE TO HELP YOU WITH ONLINE LEARNING

Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University. I have extensive experience teaching at the adult level and enjoy working with adult learners.

I am a learner-centered instructor. When working with an individual I try to understand his or her learning approaches and needs.

My comments on tutoring Poetry : Reading a poem and being able to analyze what the poet is portraying through their writing.

My students enjoy coming to lessons with Ms. Sharon. I make them feel comfortable, and always encourage them to ask me questions. I always ask them if their was something that they had in the classroom that they didn't understand, and they are not inhibited to tell me so. They know I will not judge them on that, I am just inquiring to help them out so that when they go back into the classroom they will understand what is going on. I want to make their classroom experience as pleasant as possbile. So with lots of repetition and encouragement they will not find it so hard in the class.

My teaching style is very progressive. I utilize Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences quite a bit. I try my best with individualized testing to identify the students learning style. Then once this is identified, I can teach using the way that the student learns the most effectively.An aha light goes off and they understand the material now with a proud smile.

I adapt my teaching style to the personalities and learning styles of my clients. There is no universal way for everyone to learn. I have experience working with students from diverse backgrounds and, as an anthropologist, am easily able to adapt my lessons to different cultural styles as well.
I began tutoring my classmates when I was in kindergarten. Throughout elementary and high school, I frequently tutored classmates and students in other grades. I began tutoring more frequently when I was working on my Master's degree several years ago because tutoring is generally very flexible, therefore allowing me adequate time to devote to my studies. Today, five terms into my PhD,I continue to tutor. I have also been working as a professional writing consultant at Florida Atlantic University since 2009, helping college students with any and every part of the writing process. I enjoy wor ... read more
