A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored last year with SPARK through the Milwaukee Boys and Girls Club. I worked with kindergartners through third graders.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a 21 year-old senior attending UW-Milwaukee. I will be graduated in December 2012 with a BA in Literary and Critical Studies with a minor in Philosophy. I have not had any formal experience with tutoring but have always been someone who my friends and fellow students seek out to proof read their papers and to give suggestions or comments. Last semester I made the Dean's List here at the university and I am maintaining a 3.8 accumulative GPA.
I am a very patient and compassionate individual. I will always help a person capitalize on his or her academic strengths, while working patiently but dilligently to recognize his or her weaknesses.

I was an exceptionally driven high school student, taking the most difficult schedule my small private school would offer. My course work included AP calculus and AP US government, on both exams I received good marks. In college I studied a wide variety of classes in pursuit of a degree in the liberal arts. My main foci were history, foreign languages and English literature and grammar while maintaining a love for the sciences and mathematics. I have spent the last two years teaching English as a second language in China. My time there was spent teaching the oral skills and tutoring in reading and writing.
As a student I enjoyed most the teachers who facilitated learning. Teachers who lead students on a road of discovery as they learned, who taught me how to think and not what to think. I model my teaching after the same style I enjoyed as a student. Helping a student disco ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an undergrad student at the University of Wisconsin, I worked as a writing assistant in the Academic Resource Center assisting students with reading, writing and grammar. I have home schooled my two children for over 10 years using an original curriculum as well as purchased curricula. In addition, I have volunteered for the past three years at the local public library, tutoring writing, reading and math to adults. I have thus worked with children and adults of all ages and skill levels.
Knowledge is not something to be horded. I think we each have a responsibility to share what we know. I love to help people understand. I prefer to teach by lecturing,but I realize that individuals learn subjects individual ways, and thus as a tutor my task is to be clear and patient. From working with different people at different levels, I also know that to be successful I have to be flexibl ... read more

I am a fervent believer of Gardner's mutiple intelligences, because I know that each person has a unique learning style, and unique interests. Therefore I will do all in my power to discover each and every student's learning preferences, so that learning becomes a responsible, joyful experience. Consequently, I use eccletic methods, in brief "whatever works"! I always look for new tricks, new technological ways, but also include the "good old ways" in my teaching... because some students like them! I have never met a person who is not curious about something, and I consider this joy for larning my sure ally!

I have always enjoyed reading and writing. In college and graduate school I decided to pursue studies in British and American Literature as well as English Writing. Throughout my education I have tutored students in World Literature, Mythology, grammar, and writing. I have strong grammatical skills and writing skills due to my high achievements in my studies and grant opportunities I have taken advantage of.
I believe any child/student/adult can improve their reading and grammatical skills with help from a tutor. I am patient, flexible, and creative. These attributes and many more I will bring to each tutoring session to ensure that best possible outcome. I believe in using a variety of creative methods to help each child learn at their own pace, and that when an educator cares he/she can make a difference in a child's life. Reading and writing can be accessible to every individual ... read more

Free and unconstrained autobiographical writing is one of the best ways to coax a student insecure about his or her writing skills into putting into words intense experiences from their own life. I tell my students to just tell me in their own words what they are trying to say. When they speak aloud, the words flow, and then I say, "There is your opening sentence right there. Quick! Write it down." At other times, I ask them to pretend that they are really someone else, an actor in a television show, for example, and I have them imagine that the character, not they themselves, are speaking. This releases the student to let go of inhibitions and let the film roll "for the character" and then they stop focusing on themselves.
