A Little Bit About Me...

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. The belief in rote memorization; using cognitive recall; using tactile materials and hands-on activities are very important and always given to great care to assist each student's personal approach to the subject matter which encompasses the student is number one and each question is important and full of potential to every grow and learn. Patience of a saint with ways meeting the needs that most help the student to learn, retain and apply the subject matter--a good motto is:"A willow tree bends with the wind." Thus ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I prefer working one on one with students and in group situations I utilize a collaborative learning approach.
I taught freshman composition at Texas A&M Commerce and Paris Junior College. My primary focus in graduate school was literature. Much of my studies related to children's and adolescent literature. The study of composition and compositional theory made up a secondary focus of my studies. After graduating, I worked in the sales and management fields and assisted students in the community in writing speeches for competition and personal statements for college applications.

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I know the basics of most of Shakespeare's major plays including, "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "Romeo and Juliet" "Macbeth" "Hamlet" and "Henry V." These plays are where my Shakespeare knowledge is strongest, and I can help students get through the flowery language to understand what Shakespeare is saying, and focus on the most important dramatic moments of the plays.

My name is Eric Fisher Stone and I graduated with B.A. from Texas Christian University in the summer of 2008. I attended graduate school directly after, and acquired 20 graduate hours and the University of Idaho’s MFA in Creative Writing Program where I taught freshmen composition. I currently live in Fort Worth, Texas in the zip code of 76133. My main areas of expertise are creative writing, and poetry. I can also teach fiction writing because I have some experience in that as well, having a fiction publication in Descant, Fort Worth’s Journal of Fiction and Poetry. I maintained, in my English major, a GPA of 3.7. My knowledge of literature overall is pretty solid and it is strongest in British Romanticism and American Transcendentalism (meaning American poets like Whitman and thinkers such as Emerson and Thoreau.) With Shakespeare, the plays I am most knowledgeable in are, “A Midsummer ... read more

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.

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : Have taught Shakespeare as part of the English literature class in grade 12. I have actually been to Strafford Upon Avon and have seen many plays in England.

My teaching style is determined by the group that I am teaching. I am always honest and open minded with my students. I always give me the respect and care that they deserve.
My many years of teaching experience at all levels (from elementary to college) has given me the ability and patience to work with students of all ages. Although I prefer older students, I have taught reading, language arts, and writing in elementary school. During my more than 40 years in Greece, I worked with students in ESL (all levels), taught high school and college English, and prepared many Greek students for the TOEFL I have a BA degree in English from the University of North Texas (1962), MA in Reading and English from Miami University (Oxford, Ohio - 1975) and post graduate work from several European and American Universities. I have a state of Texas professional teaching certificate for English ... read more

Up to date pedagogically. Interested in overall basics.

30+ years high school/college teaching experience. I have used a variety of textbooks, technology, and media and am willing to and could easily adapt to others' teaching styles or requests. I have the belief that hands on usage, be it writing or speaking or peer teaching, supersedes passive practice eg. reading, listening, copying, rote memorization of passages or terminology, etc. Activity and involvement lend credence and joy to language learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for language and rhetoric. Words, truth, knowledge, and exploration have marked my academic career. I studied with two colleges during my Associate years in order to obtain lessons in Japanese. I took my passion for language into history with pursuits in Latin and Greek while attending the College of Saint Thomas More. I have offered consistent and helpful tutoring to youth and classmates over the past four years. I have specific experience with Theology, Philosophy, Literature, Rhetoric, Latin, Greek, Japanese, and Anatomy.
I enjoy the wonders of discovery and assisting others with master concepts and practical logic that helps them in every aspect of their lives. Tutoring is not so simply as to aid a child in finding the answer or getting a college student to pass the examine. It is truly the disciplined approach to knowledge and truth that allows one to branch i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught ABE classes for Saint Charles Community College at NECC from 1998 to 2003. I have earned a BA in Social Science and majored in Political Science and History and minored in Spanish and Religious studies. I love learning and helping others learn. I was introduced to Philosophy in college, and beleive that every subject anyone has difficulty with can be turned around just by introducing them to some basic Logic.
I do hands on instruction I try to relate whatever concept I am attempting to teach into a hands on experiment so the student can see, feel or even smell things that will help make things easy for them to remember. With Math and Algebra I try to relate it to the real world and teach them to use their imaginations and visualize things to make the concepts more acceptable to them. Most people who have difficulties and need tutors usually learn better through senses ... read more

I hold a B.A. in English, cum laude, from John Brown University, with a concentration in Composition and Rhetoric and a minor in Business Administration. For the last three years, I have worked as a copyeditor/proofreader for a large ad agency in Dallas, TX. Before that, I worked as a writing consultant in my university's writing center throughout college, helping students write better papers through support every step of the way--from brainstorming topics to the final proofread before turning the paper in.
I am passionate about language and writing and believe that everyone could be an excellent reader and writer if they learn a few basic skills. I have the ability to meet students where they are at in the learning process and communicate the subject matter in a direct way that enables them to understand the root of what I am teaching. I am also gentle and patient, as I have taugh ... read more
