Certified English tutor with AP/PSAT/ACT experience

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.
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.

I currently hold a BA in Psychology with a minor in Business Administration. In previous positions interpersonal, written and verbal communication, diversity, and professional skills have strengthen and will continue to do so; but nothing compared to enriching another’s life by way of education. As a parent, I understand the importance of resolving issues, expanding confidence, promoting individualism, and security within a family unit. I have been substitute teaching for the past 7 years while pursuing ways to broaden my levels of education. It is my goal to incorporate the advantages of book learning with day to day living. I believe we all want and strive to be fully functioning components in a world of many choices.

A Little Bit About Me...

My personal philosophy embraces ownership, one of the top ingredients for successful learning. Personal ownership creates a more perceptive learning process. Students will be more willing to maintain their learning as they proceed throughout the year. Another way ownership makes a big academic difference is through motivation. Ownership will also create self-confidence. A good teacher demonstrates faith in their ability to achieve simply by making them part of the process. When asking them ‘what do you think;’ their participation will increase and they will better remember the facts being taught.

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 publ ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I'm at my best as a teacher when the student has a teachable spirit. I believe all of us (students, teachers and tutors) possess this. We have an innate desire to learn. Sometimes, though, that desire has to be gently prodded because it's been lost inside a student. I stretch my students, sometimes beyond what they think they can do. Encouragement and watchfulness go a long way in helping a student go further. Praise and accountability do, also. My job as a tutor or teacher is to find out how my student learns best, then adapt my teaching style to his/her skill level. I know how to do that. 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
