I am a recent graduate of Mercyhurst College in Erie, Pennsylvania (May 2011). I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in English with a concentration in creative writing. I also have a minor in photography. During my time at Mercyhurst College, I worked as a writing tutor in the school’s writing center. When students entered the center, it was my job to immediately make them feel comfortable by greeting them with a friendly smile and asking what I could help them with. After this, the students’ explained their assignment and expressed any concerns they had or anything their professors wanted them to work on. I then proceeded to read their paper and used my knowledge and experience to work with them to help revise and edit the essay. As a writing tutor, I have experienced all types of work, anywhere from the beginning and helping a struggling student come up with ideas to write about, all the w

I earned my BA in English in 2010 and have been teaching and tutoring high school and college students ever since, both in the classroom and as a private tutor. My years of experience have helped me understand not only what is expected of students but how to best teach those skills. My expertise includes grammar, AP classes, creative and academic writing, in-depth text analysis, and vocabulary development. My favorite thing to teach is grammar because once my students learn how sentences function, they can finally have fun writing and editing their own work! Ask for a free consultation to find out how you or your student can benefit from my tutoring services. I would love to discuss long term goals and how I can help you get ahead in your current studies!

I have taught middle school language arts for 15 years in both public and private schools. I excel in teaching young people how to write clearly, completely, and concisely. While I can teach them grammar, punctuation, spelling, organization, and research skills. CONTENT often comes from the heart rather than the head. I have had several of my students win awards in writing completions. One struggling 8th grader worked so hard that he was accepted into an Honors English Class his freshman year in high school. I believe that grammar and punctuation are critical in written expression. I am very focused on the learning style of the student and will begin with most student making that determination and connection with the student. I also work well with students who are dyslexic, have ADD/ADHD, and who are left-handed. I attempt to build a relationship with the student so that are willing

I have taugth reading comprehension in conjunction with reading skills. It is not enough to be able to just decode words, you have to know what the message is that the passage or story is trying to convey. To that end, I stop during reading to periodically check to see if they can summarize the events, the mood or the feelings of the characters,predict what may happen next. When answering comprehension questions on paper, I insist they answer in complete sentences and give multiple word answers. We read multiple books in a year, reading full, not abridged classics and quality chapter books, so you can explore themes. I require my older children to keep an Reading Response Journal on every book they read. I just don't want a regurgitation of the events in the chapter, but how did what happened to the character evoke anything in them. My teaching style is very hands-on, involving pict

I pride myself on being innovative and tailoring teaching to the needs and interests of my students. An ability to relate the material to one's life and take ownership over your learning is the core of my teaching philosophy; therefore, I teach in a manner that best enable my student(s) to maximize this goal. Learning should be an experience, and I strive to develop activities and approaches to make this experience a pleasant and engaging one. My classes are fun. The activities are not wastes of time, and the end result is measurable growth in the subject area. My best quality is my ability to adapt and think on the fly. This means that I can address concerns and issues as they manifest; also, it means that I am not locked into one way of doing something. This means that on a given day, I can adjust the manner and method of instruction to suit the needs and interest of my stud

For the last two years, I have worked for a young adult mentoring program called Project Respect. I work as a classroom facilitator. My BA in Communications offers me experience in writing research papers, essays, preparing and delivering speeches, and developing creative case studies.

I love working with students of all ages and find that teaching methods and styles tend to adapt to those individual students. I think it
