As far as experience goes, I've just spent four years as a professional writing major at Kutztown University. I don't have a teaching degree, but I do have experience working with children at Over the Rainbow Nursery School. I would be in classrooms of different age groups ranging from new-borns to 5-year-olds. I prefer one-on-one only because that's how I personally learn best, and in a one-on-one atmosphere it's easier to pinpoint what one particular child is having problems with.

Having written well over 100 published articles, I have a B.A. in journalism and can help you with everything from nut grafs to ledes (that's how we journos spell "lead"). I also have web and blogging experience. I am a published freelancer (Complex Magazine, cinemablend.com, Weightwatchers.com, The Source, etc), and a middle school Language Arts teacher for the past 5 years. I also graduated Rutgers University with a BA in journalism, and I minored in English, so I cover a lot of bases. I can help you with both reading and writing. I have the experience to take you far. I prefer online tutoring, but in the classroom, I usually use project-based learning, which encompasses everything from reading to listening to creating until the subject is mastered.

I am a Speech and Theatre educator with a strong background in English. I have worked with young people over the past twenty years and have been privileged to see many of them benefit from the Speech, Theatre and English training they received in my programs or by tutoring. In this era of instant communication, many of my former students have reached out to me to let me know how meaningful the work was for them and how it motivated them in their lives and helped them to find their true callings. For this, I am profoundly grateful. Committed, engaging, appropriately direct, friendly but professional, caring, insightful, compassionate, skilled, motivating. I use appropriate humor and candor to motivate. I do have a behavior policy of mutual respect which sets a protocol and from which all parties mutually benefit.

I believe there to be several different types of learning experiences. As a double major at NYU I saw several types of teaching styles that worked for me, and I appreciate that everyone has his/her own method. With this in mind, I try to provide a unique experience for each student, while covering all areas of subject matter. Personally I have excelled in all areas of the biological and physical sciences, as well as English and American Literature. These fields of study are diverse and intricate, and I have had great success and enjoyment learning and teaching in both.

I prefer one-on-one sessions so I can be attentive to particular needs of the student, especially when it comes to reading and writing.

I can assist rote memorization of facts. I can shepherd critical thinking, perceptive reading, and clear writing.
