Creative Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Disney, OK

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology and pre-medicine. I have experience working with children who have autism. Elementary education is important to me since it is the foundation upon which later learning is built. I believe that all students have strengths and weaknesses and that each child deserves the opportunity to succeed in school. While psychology was my primary area of study, I am excellent with reading, writing, and medical related sciences. Being a kinesthetic learner I am familiar with the challenges a traditional classroom setup create. I know how to help an introverted child move to the head of the class and tailor their study habits to their abilities. Reading is important at all ages and comes more easily for some than others. For any child that lags behind in this area I am passionate about moving them to the front of the class. In my opinion, allowing a c

I am in my third year as an English teacher at a Tulsa charter school. I currently teach 6th Grade Language Arts and high school College Prep English and Reading. I am a firm believer that all students can learn when given the opportunity. I also believe in catering to different learning styles. If you give me the opportunity to tutor your child, I promise that you'll receive effort, attention and experience that you will not find from most other tutors.

Through my volunteer work with church organizations I have over five years of experience mentoring others, which has given me an excellent understanding of the need for quality educators. I worked as a teacher in Kansas before moving to Oklahoma, where I currently work at a local Boys and Girls Club. There tutoring is a part of the daily activities and youth in various grade levels ask for help with numerous subject matter. Additionally, my educational experience as an English/Education major has given me a good foundation of writing and critical thinking skills that translate as an ability to teach a variety of subjects. I believe in creating students who have learned how to learn. I understand that I am only a temporary fixture in the lives of most students. Consequently, I strive to help them understand how to acquire information and ask the right questions so that they can succeed l

I love teaching and working with both adults and children. The key to any student succeeding with the aide of a tutor is my ability to assist the student in finding a passion for the subject and making the learning environment one that is successful and interesting for each student. Having a mom as a teacher growing up I have come to understand that in order to be successful in teaching you need to be compassionate to the needs of your students no one is ever like the other. As an honor's student who tutored other student athletes I was driven to continue on and receive a Graduate level education. Although English came very easy to me so did Computers and programming so I chose to receive my Bachelor in Business Administration and a Master in Management Information Systems. My Master's Degree has given me the opportunity to teach at the college level, assist Fortune 500 Companies with

I have enjoyed substitute teaching since 1991; it was a part- time occupation that worked well as I re-entered the college scene in order to advance my AA degree to a BA in Political Science. Life and destiny urged me to earn a teacher's certification in Texas, where I later worked as an ESL 4th-5th grade teacher in the Waco (Texas) Independent School District for three years. A move to Kentucky to be closer to my aging mother resulted in six years of working as the Adair County School District's Gifted and Talented Coordinator and ESL/ELL Coordinator. I have recently married and my husband and I manage and run a horse ranch while I substitute teach. My background is myriad, including writing and freelance tutoring. My teaching style is highly creative to borderline eccentric! I have extensive training in the various learning styles and instinctively target the student's learning st

Throughout college, I held myself to a high educational standard, and maintained a 3.92 GPA. I majored in music, minored in chemistry, and completed extensive coursework in the math and science areas. Since graduation, I have worked in the chemical field, and possess a firm knowledge of the field of math and science and excellent writing and reading comprehension skills. I tutored during high school and college, and worked as a tutor in the campus Academic Support Lab during the last two years of my college career, tutoring students in the arts, music, sciences, mathematics, English, history, philosophy, and literature. I also tutored many students with learning disabilites such as autism and ADD/ADHD. I firmly believe that every student can learn, given the proper environment and instruction. I make it a point to listen to my students and try to see intellectual confusion and impas

My teaching philosophy involves connecting with individual students. One of my strengths is identifying strong points in a student’s performance and teaching him to tap into successful facets of his/her performance. In English, I was trained in (and advocate) “Faulkner English” as developed by Claude Faulkner and taught at the University of Arkansas. This method employs a certain amount of deconstruction of sentences, beginning with the most simple, and can be geared to any level. In French, I do use some repetition, and, yes, memorizing conjugations, as a means of making material available to the student. I also use linguistic games, skits, simple verses and play, when appropriate. I have taught either French or English, either in the classroom or as a private tutor, since 1989, when I was recruited as an undergraduate to teach Elementary French. For the next 5 years I taught all le

By the completion, in May, of my graduate degree, I will have taught 45 hours of undergraduate English courses in Composition/Rhetoric, Business Writing, Literature, Creative Writing and Essay Writing. I have also, in previous summers, taught college-prep English classes at Gonzaga Preparatory School in Spokane, Washington. My other experiences as an instructor include four semesters as a writing tutor for the University of Arkansas Athletic Department, a five-week writing workshop for fifth graders at the Fayetteville Public Library, and active participation in the University of Arkansas' Writers in the Schools program, which sends graduate students to high-needs grade schools, junior highs, and high schools to teach poetry workshops.

I love tutoring and working with students of all ages. I believe all students can learn; however, each student has a unique learning style. I am patient, considerate, and capable of finding the students learning style. After doing so, my goal is to provide the best education possible and help the student achieve academic success. A few good educators can make a difference in a student's educational experience. My goal is to make that difference in all my student's lives. Presently, I'm pursuing an MBA in Organizational Psychology & Development from American Intercontinental University. I'm driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education with the students that I instruct. I have earned a BS in Family Studies & Gerontology which has enabled my to understand the anxiety felt by students while attempting to master a specific subject.

My teaching style is one of discipline and at the same time hands-on. Students must feel the relevance of the world around them in order to gain an understanding of what's being taught. I work with the individual but never let the focus off of the competition that's waiting. Students must understand that learning is an every day, every moment experience. It's all about how they see the world around them. I love teaching and working with children. The "aha" moment is what I live for. I believe that EVERY student can achieve what they set their mind to with guidance and persistence. In a nutshell, I taught high school English for eleven years. I am passionate about all facets of education in the classroom and the real world. I have much to offer my students whether it be a love of literature, grammar and vocabulary or life itself! I love to teach.

I have extensive experience in mentoring minors and persons with intellectual disabilites for 3 years. In highschool and college, I regularly tutored highschool and college students in algebra, highschool chemistry, and english. I am very patient and reassuring to students and wait for them to get the answer on their own when tutoring mathematics. I show them how to do it first, then let them try, and then re-explain. We would continue this repetitively with different problems until they can do it independently. It is also important to listen very carefully as to what they are saying.
