A Little Bit About Me...

I have just completed a Master's Program in the Arts of Teaching at Sacred Heart University. I completed 10 weeks of student teaching where I took on all the responsibilities of a full time 7th grade English teacher. Throughout all of high school and college I worked with children ages 3-15 and taught them how to swim in a Massachusetts accredited program in my hometown. Here, I was responsible for creating lessons and implementing them everyday in a 2-month summer program. In college, I was a Staff Editor and writer for our Newspaper. Here, I ran an entire section and was responsible for working with my wroters and tecahing them how to write an effective Perspectives article. I also had my own article entitled, "Amy Says."
I am an excited, passionate, and creative teacher who focuses on unique ways of displaying information. I like to teach content thoroughly but also with a hi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I prefer an interactive approach to teaching. My goal is to help students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills by themselves, limiting their dependence on tutoring or other guidance. For younger children, I have experience teaching grammar in an innovative game-setting.
I'm a recent college graduate with two Bachelors degrees from Salem State University: one in English/Writing and one in Liberal Studies with a concentration in Applied Social Ethics. In college, I have won two essay writing contests within the philosophy department, and placed third in a university creative writing competition. I recently completed an internship that used innovative techniques to teach grammar skills to college freshman. I have presented at two undergraduate philosophy conferences, in Salem, MA and in Forest Grove, Oregon. I have experience teaching large groups and one-on-one stud ... read more

I'm 21 years old, and I have worked as a tutor for 3 years. I can teach english even for students who don't speak my language. I'm from Iraq and I have studied in the American university of Iraq. The university is in a Kurdih region, Kurdistan of Iraq, so I had to work with many students who don't speak Arabic. I found out that it's better to teach a language without using your native language.

College Undergrad Looking to Tutor English Students

While I have never conducted a formal tutoring session, I have edited the work of my peers and more recently assisted my girlfriend's younger sister with the completion of her college essay. From my experience, I have found that I prefer to work one-on-one with the student whose work I am editing. That way, I am able to explain my revisions and help them understand my reasoning behind making certain edits. I'm not, by any means, a hard-nosed individual, but I'll certainly do my best to ensure that the student learns something.
Not only was English my favorite subject as well as the one I was most proficient in in high school, it eventually became my major in college. I majored in Journalism at The University of New Hampshire, and while I have not yet received my Bachelor's of Arts from the institution I am a mere handful of credits away from earning it (9, to be exact), an acco ... read more

Using one's strengths is the key to overcoming any weakness.

Is it difficult to maintain focus while studying? Do you need additional, individualized time to master a concept? Does frustration, anxiety, embarrassment, or hopelessness ever get in the way of you achieving your personal best? If so, I would like to help you achieve your best. Everyone deserves to feel proud and confident about their hard work, and every person can thrive from learning if they have the right tools to help them along. Thanks to my graduate training in clinical psychology, I have the unique ability to coach kids in emotion management, motivation, self-esteem, creative problem solving, and organization while strengthening their academic skills. The best students aren't just "good" students... they are happy, motivated, and confident students. I have a warm, friendly, and energetic personality that earns rapport with highly active, social kids as well as quieter, s ... read more
