Central New York and Northern PA Professional Tutor

I am a professional writer who has published nearly 1,000 Internet articles. I hold a degree in English and my specialty is Literature. I am well versed in Shakespeare. I am best at creative writing, creating essays, studying Shakespeare, understanding spelling, and helping students understand proper sentence placement.
I believe in a student led teaching style. The student will find the answers on their own with my guidance. I will assist struggling students but I will ask them to solve the problem before I volunteer the answers.

As a graduate of the University of Michigan with a bachelors in History I feel that I have more than adequate educational experience to tutor students of not only History but also English, Reading, and Writing given their status as essential elements to my study of history. Furthermore my life experience in sales, hospitality, undergraduate research, and with education as an after-school teaching assistant in the New York Public School system has left me well rounded and a great communicator. I feel that I have a strong impact both in terms of building relationships and in connecting people with knowledge and ideas.
As someone who felt in my youth that if I could only pay attention I could learn anything has taught me how to break down the barriers to focus and how it can shape a students success in any discipline. Focusing on my learning style has taught me how to demonstrate comp ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am not a professional teacher, but I played one in newsrooms at several newspapers. During a span of 20 years as reporter, sports writer, copy editor, section editor and editor-in-chief, I trained many new hires -- and even a few veterans -- in spelling, grammar, punctuation, comprehension of written material and in writing. I did not take graduate classes, but I did take the Graduate Record Exam. I scored in the upper 15% in both Verbal and Essay. I do not consider myself a classically trained scholar or academic. My knowledge comes from practical experience and in knowing study approaches in advance of taking standardized test.
I am patient and encouraging. I have a talent for identifying how people learn. It is important to know what works with people in order to dail into the proper approach. Some people can read and immediately understand. Others need the repetition of hands ... read more

I am very passionate and knowledgeable about the field of English. In my opinion, writing well and reading critically comprise the foundation of educational success. Both my BA and MA degrees are in English. I also hold a Post-Master's Certificate in Education with a specialization in College Teaching.

Beyond formal schooling, I was employed as a high school Language Arts Intern and worked as a college English Intern who provided help and instruction regarding writing skills.

It is very important to let children know that there is no wrong or right way of doing their work, as long as it is done correctly. They also need to know that their methods are their own. Children needs reassurance. When A childs' work is not done to one's full potential, it is not my strategy to make them feel like less of a child. It is however, my strategy to work with that child until he/she understands WHY the work was not done correctly, and then let him/her correct the work themself. This in my opinion, lets a child know that we believe in him/her. That is the most important lesson a child can learn. That they are their own person and that they all have the potential to achieve the goals set for them.
My most recent experience was as apreschool teacher. Despite the fact that the children were all the same age, whatever developmental or cognitive delays a child might ... read more

I attended several schools to achieve my undergraduate degrees, both of which I worked hard to excel at the University level. Attending graduate school at Binghamton University truly prepared me for academia, requiring many research papers and essays as well as honing my knowledge in psychology, the arts, human development, english, and biology. I have tutored, un-officially, all during my college years, forming study groups to better help my peers, as well as having volunteer positions tutoring in math and english.
I love to teach and see the ideas light up the eyes of the person who suddenly got a concept. I think teaching should be adaptable and should fit the learning style of the student. Visual tasks, memory games, and hands-on-learning are, in my opinion, the best way to help someone truly learn (versus rote memory). I think that with the right guidance and put in the r ... read more
