Certified English tutor with AP/PSAT/ACT experience

I have been a middle and high school English teacher for over 7 years. My teaching ranges from grammar, composition, reading skills, 9 - 12 grade English, AP Language and Composition, and AP Literature courses. I have also taught Speech, Theatre, and Journalism. Being a school counselor, I have assisted students with PSAT, SAT, and ACT tutoring plus group study skills sessions.
My teaching style is organized and interactive. I want to understand the student's goals and needs, while they need to understand my goals and commitment toward their success.

A Little Bit About Me...

After obtaining a Masters of Science with a Minor in Education, teaching has become my life pursuit. Even when working for a large Biotech firm, I have tutored for one year in public schools during my lunch hour.

Students thrive in my presence when they bring a desire to learn because they go away feeling like they've accomplished something important.
I'm certified in Grades 6-12 to teach all English and language arts subjects in Oklahoma. I'm also certified to teach speech/drama/debate in Gra ... read more
