Reading, Writing, and More

I have a Bachelors in English Literature w/a certificate in Technical Writing from the University of North Texas. I have put myself through school by working as server part-time. This has given me a great deal of patience. I have experience as an office manager for an apartment locator, and I have tutored my friends through their English courses.
I have no set style of teaching. I try to understand how to benefit the individual by examining their needs. Then, we go from there. Some students need an analytical approach, so the material can best be presented as a formula. Others need a creative approach. It really just depends on the student.

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : In an Independent Study course taken at the post-graduate level, I focused exclusively on the works of William Shakespeare.

I advocate a "hands-on" approach that affords students an opportunity to feel as if they are teaching themselves and I am there only to facilitate the process.
I am foremost a writer whose 38-year, award-winning career is rooted in journalism. However, I also have an extensive teaching background. I have taught writing labs at St. Thomas University – Miami, Florida (1987-88), Mississippi State University (1988-89) and Texas A&M University (1989-93); and I currently offer tutoring services to 10th- and 11th-grade foreign exchange students from all over the world. Some of my tutoring involves preparing students to take the college-entrance SAT. I am particularly qualified to do this from a writing perspective, because the College Board contracts me each year to assess the essays students submit as part of their SAT testing. In a similar fashion, Pearson Education, I ... read more

ELAR Teacher: Getting your child engaged & invested!

Unorthodox is the best way to describe my teaching style. Unorthodox in that I will change my approach or activities based on student comprehension. Unorthodox in that I truly believe that for every student who is confused or doesn’t understand a concept, there is a teacher who didn’t do their job. My greatest strength lies in creating lessons and activities where students will want to engage. Engagement leads to a permanent investment. When a student is engaged by a lesson, they will remember that lesson. To introduce Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” my students played "Who's crazier: Edgar Allan Poe or Mrs. W’s Mom or Dad???” After reading a series of statements such as: “Removed tires from daughter’s car for talking back” “Married his first cousin,” students would guess if it was Poe or my mom/dad. The level of participation in class that day and the days that followed wa ... read more

Up to date pedagogically. Interested in overall basics.

30+ years high school/college teaching experience. I have used a variety of textbooks, technology, and media and am willing to and could easily adapt to others' teaching styles or requests. I have the belief that hands on usage, be it writing or speaking or peer teaching, supersedes passive practice eg. reading, listening, copying, rote memorization of passages or terminology, etc. Activity and involvement lend credence and joy to language learning.

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : Have taught Shakespeare as part of the English literature class in grade 12. I have actually been to Strafford Upon Avon and have seen many plays in England.

My teaching style is determined by the group that I am teaching. I am always honest and open minded with my students. I always give me the respect and care that they deserve.
My many years of teaching experience at all levels (from elementary to college) has given me the ability and patience to work with students of all ages. Although I prefer older students, I have taught reading, language arts, and writing in elementary school. During my more than 40 years in Greece, I worked with students in ESL (all levels), taught high school and college English, and prepared many Greek students for the TOEFL I have a BA degree in English from the University of North Texas (1962), MA in Reading and English from Miami University (Oxford, Ohio - 1975) and post graduate work from several European and American Universities. I have a state of Texas professional teaching certificate for English ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a certified teacher in English and Math with 5 years of experience teaching in both public and private schools. In addition, I have been tutoring for more than 15 years and teaching summer camps for young people for 10 years. I am an expert in helping students prepare for such tests as the TAKS, GED, ACT, and SAT.
I am a caring teacher who is encouraging and helpful. I try to explain the material in a way so that students understand and keep trying different methods in order to determine how students learn best. Although I am very serious about helping students learn, I often use a lighthearted approach to help students loosen up and enjoy the learning process.

Due to my desire to increase my knowledge, I graduated a year early from my university with a BA in Psychology, and a minor in Political Science. I am currently in Graduate School, majoring in Community Counseling. This is because I have a great desire to work with people, and help them out. I spent two years as an AVID tutor, working in all subjects but specifically Psychology, History, Government and Economics, Math, and English.
I work with students very well. I make sure that they are able to connect with me, and enjoy the process of learning. It's important to like what you are studying, so that you can get the most out of it. I feel as though it is necessary for them to enjoy the setting they are in, and I do my best to accommodate them. Learning should not be something that students do not look forward to, contrary; they should be excited to learn something new. I make sure ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

From a young age, I have enjoyed teaching, working with young people, and the challenge of making a tough problem seem easy. I have a BA in Literature and am a semester away from completing my M.Ed. in Secondary Education. Additionally, I am a trained teaching consultant for the National Writing Project. I have spent the last five years working full time as a teacher, two years in an economically and racially diverse college prep charter school, and three years in one of the most well-respected private schools in the state.
A third generation teacher, working with kids is in my blood. In college, many teachers and peers commented on my ability to break down a large or complicated issue into manageable, easy-to-digest ideas. Now, as I tackle scary grammar issues or the dense analysis of irony in a plot, I thrive on the "lightbulb" look on my students' faces when I have finally ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In 1981 I received a double-bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Mathematics from Texas A&M Commerce. I tutored Math, basic skills through calculus I, and Computer Science for two years while attending the University. I have also tutored all middle-school subjects, especially reading and math, at Trinity River Mission tutoring facility in Dallas from 1991-1996. I feel capable of tutoring most high-school subjects including Algebra-Calculus, History, Politics and Science. I would be able to tutor beginning Calculus and/or Chemistry, but not without a little review. I have a very, very small Spanish language capability. I'm eager and ready to get started!
I love teaching and working with all children. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructive approach to learning. I try to build a child's se ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a B.A. in English, cum laude, from John Brown University, with a concentration in Composition and Rhetoric and a minor in Business Administration. For the last three years, I have worked as a copyeditor/proofreader for a large ad agency in Dallas, TX. Before that, I worked as a writing consultant in my university's writing center throughout college, helping students write better papers through support every step of the way--from brainstorming topics to the final proofread before turning the paper in.
I am passionate about language and writing and believe that everyone could be an excellent reader and writer if they learn a few basic skills. I have the ability to meet students where they are at in the learning process and communicate the subject matter in a direct way that enables them to understand the root of what I am teaching. I am also gentle and patient, as I have taugh ... read more
