Writing is one of my top subjects!

I enjoy working with people and I try to connect with students' strengths to bring up their weak spots. I'm very good at getting people enthusiastic about learning too. I work to provide a comfortable collaborative relationship in which students feel comfortable learning and trying out new ideas and techniques.
As a student I am seeking a career as a psychologist and am 2 semesters away from completing my MA and 2 years from my PsyD. So I understand what it's like to be a student! As a teacher my strong suit would be teaching writing because in my education I have become comfortable with my writing skills. I can help people learn to do writing that is focused and that easily communicates their ideas. Of course I am also very knowledgeable on social sciences and also statistics.

All kids can learn no matter what their disability!

Patient. I work at the students pace and tighten the rigor where the student can succeed.
I have been teaching special education for over 6 years. I've taught low functioning students with Learning disabilities, autism, MR, etc... Some kids learn at a different pace and some progress, while it may not be much, opens the door to confidence and hope. I will work hard and help your child to succeed where they can and build character along the way. We as educators need to teach the whole child.

Writing is one of my top subjects! My award-winning writing career spans 38 years. Accolades include a Katie Award and three “Council for Advancement and Support of Education” awards. I have been published in national newspapers and magazines, as well as on-line. My syndicated column, “Lone Star Legends,” has appeared in 48 newspapers throughout Texas. Additionally, I have worked as a journalist in radio and television broadcast (most recently with CSPAN). Teaching experience includes having supervised writing labs at St. Thomas University -- Miami, Fla. (1987-88), Mississippi State University (1988-89) and Texas A&M University (1989-93). I have also taught composition at the fifth through eighth grade levels and currently tutor 10th and 11th grade foreign exchange students in all areas related to writing. Additionally, the College Board contracts me each year to assess essays students submit as part of their SAT testing. In a similar fashion, Pearson Education, Inc. employs me each year to assess essays students -- grades 4, 5, 7, 9 and 10 – submit as part of standardized testing in the states of Arizona, California, Texas and West Virginia.

I am foremost a writer whose 38-year, award-winning career is rooted in journalism. However, I also have an extensive teaching background. I have taught writing labs at St. Thomas University – Miami, Florida (1987-88), Mississippi State University (1988-89) and Texas A&M University (1989-93); and I currently offer tutoring services to 10th- and 11th-grade foreign exchange students from all over the world. Some of my tutoring involves preparing students to take the college-entrance SAT. I am particularly qualified to do this from a writing perspective, because the College Board contracts me each year to assess the essays students submit as part of their SAT testing. In a similar fashion, Pearson Education, Inc. employs me each year to assess essays that students -- grades 4, 5, 7, 9 and 10 – submit as part of standardized testing in the states of Arizona, California, Tex ... read more

To All Can Learn, If there's a Will there's a Way.

I have previously taught dance lessons, choreographed a select number of routines, and have helped with Resume techniques for job scouting and placement. I have a passion to teach and am undoubtedly sure to be able to teach and tutor anyone. Regardless of the age or skill level, I will adjust the lesson based on your performance at hand. I am fun to learn with and will help you meet above and beyond what you thought was achievable.
My teaching style varies depending on how I see the student picks up and retains material. Repetition, Hands-on activities, speaking, out loud thinking.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am working toward a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a minor in Philosophy. I have achieved very high marks in college board English examinations and I am VERY proficient in all aspects of the English field. I have also played the French horn in band for the past 9 years and I know how to play the trumpet as well. I would feel comfortable teaching a beginner on either of those instruments.

Approach taken is a "Can do experience--constant reassurance is on going to create a win - win atmosphere which motivates student(s)that learning is possible and achieved with the ever forethought that each student is important,unique and special! I always generate a positive -supportive caring attitude promoting helpfulness with each and every part of the learning process.
