Reading is one of my top subjects! Reading and Learning Specialist - Focus on struggling readers. Trained in Wilson and other Orton-Gillingham approaches Specialize in individualized attention to students with alternative learning styles and learning challenges

I am a learner-centered instructor. When working with an individual I try to understand his or her learning approaches and needs. I believe that I work well with alternative learners and with young adults who may be disaffected with conventional educational methods. I particularly enjoy working with adults and feel that I often learn so much more from them than what I am able to offer. When working with adult learners I respect that their personal lives and needs may intersect with our instructional time. Frequently I will incorporate whatever is going on in their lives into our current "curriculum."
Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University. I have extensive experience teaching at the adult level and enjoy working ... read more

Dedicated Learner Wishing to Help Others

I tutored students throughout law school in various subjects including, but not limited to, writing. Since opening my own legal writing, researching and editing business, I have assisted attorneys and lay people develop their own writing skills. I am a clasically trained actress who performed in several off Broadway shows in New York City. Although I majored in theatre performance, I excelled in creative writing, with an emphasis on poetry. In high school, I placed out of college English, enabling me to take nothing but creative writing classes. I am a grammar and punctuation nazi with excellent reading comprehension skills. I excel at testing. As an actress/attorney, I have become a fabulous public speaker and would love to help others become comfortable with that skill, as it is the number one fear in America.
Because of law school, I teach mostly by asking questions. This ena ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading : See comments on English

I have been teaching many years, and I make sure I keep very much up to date with the teaching styles and ideas in use today, I have bona fide references available from students and their parents, (past and present) to show prospective students. I have worked with students for whom English is a second (or third or fourth) language). I have worked very successfully with students who have had a learning disability or physical or emotional or mental problem of some kind. I apply my teaching expertise and ideas to academics as well as music. All my students tell me that they can tell that I love teaching, by the way I work with them.
I am gentle, yet demanding. I am soft, but strict. I use humor to keep my students interested and in focus. I teach, but I also listen and watch for signals from my students in order to know if they understand or need more explanation. I develop ... read more

Reading is one of my top subjects! Using phonics and being able to teach a child how t read going through the pre-reading skills with them and then seeing them go on the journey with the skills.

My students enjoy coming to lessons with Ms. Sharon. I make them feel comfortable, and always encourage them to ask me questions. I always ask them if their was something that they had in the classroom that they didn't understand, and they are not inhibited to tell me so. They know I will not judge them on that, I am just inquiring to help them out so that when they go back into the classroom they will understand what is going on. I want to make their classroom experience as pleasant as possbile. So with lots of repetition and encouragement they will not find it so hard in the class.

Expert at finding the solution to help you or your child!

I work at the corporate office for Owl Tutors. We help match students to the perfect tutor in the South Florida area. Our tutors have been tutoring for many years and work with elementary through college students. Helping people and seeing them learn motivate students and is why they love with they do. They are extremely patient and willing to do what it takes to ensure you learn the material, as opposed to just passing exams.
Our tutors are trained to be able to relate problems to the real world, making them concrete and simple. For example, a question may ask what is 7 times 25? This problem is abstract and challenging to some people. Thus, I rephrase it to, "If you have 7 quarters in your pocket, how much money do you have?" By making the problem more relatable to the student, the problem suddenly appears easier and less intimidating. Our tutors go through training on how to ass ... read more

I tailor my teaching style to individual needs. I like to use Powerpoints, interactive quizzes, and online resources such as quiz flash cards to enhance my tutoring, and if I notice an area of weakness I will find exercises to address the problem. I can also help with study skills.
I love teaching and learning! I have degrees in English and law, and have over ten years' experience teaching and tutoring in many subjects. I enjoy teaching students at all levels, from struggling learners to second language learners to doctoral candidates. My forte is research and writing, and I am familiar with APA, MLA, and Bluebook format. I can take a good paper and make it great! I work as a teacher and tutor at Lynn University's Writing Center.

The Word Doctor

My teaching style is geared to my student's needs and may be altered during the course of the lessons if necessary. Attention is given to priming a student's focus and setting goals. I thoroughly enjoy my students' progress.
My experience has been primarily in editing in various arenas, including medicine, technology, aerospace, and memoirs. I have tutored those whose native language structure hinders learning to use everyday idioms and phrases recently introduced into American English. Emphasis on proper grammar is light but holds to basic principles of good English.

Reading is one of my top subjects! I have tutored many children that English is their second language.

Teacher at Alexander Montessori School, Miami,Forida 8years. The montessori method is based on self-directed activities, hands on learning and collaborate play. It allows the children to make their own creative decisions. Montessori encourages learning through all five senses. Children learn at their own pace and according to their own choice of activities. I have also taught children in traditional environments. This method is teacher centred rather than learner centred. The focus is on rote learning and memorisation.
Both Montessori and Traditional elemtary school age children.
