I try to empower students to learn how to improve their writing. I start by showing what works well, the strengths of the piece itself. I then show them what can be improved in the work with further revision. I often will use examples of first drafts of famous and acclaimed authors, and sometimes use my own work as an example of poor first drafts and how a work can improve with revision. I have a passion for writing and literature that is usually contagious.
I have over 15 years experience in a writing, editing, and reporting capacity covering news and publishing industries, and higher education. I also have formal training and education on how to edit, write and give formal, positive feedback for improving manuscripts and texts. My work has appeared in numerous publications and periodicals. I have written and edited internal medical and high-tech documentation, sports articles, l ... read more

Ashley Frankian- Special Educator, Ell instructor

I am a strategic based teacher that enhances my students learning through finding their own particular learning style. Each student has and individualized learning approach to their studies. Once they find what works for them, they will succeed. It is my job as an educator to help them find that out. I like to use a multi modality approach so that students learn all different types of learning styles, this way they may pick and choose certain styles that work for them. For example, If the students are writing about a short story they have read, to help them get their thoughts on to paper, I would assist them with graphic organizers to prompt them to list of jot down vocabulary words or important people places or things in the story however, in a manner that helps them to do this with a proper beginning, middle and end. All of this is visually designed on the graphic organizer to help the ... read more

ELL, Reading and Writing, Standardized tests ALL ages

I am a fan of Howard Gardner- I believe each student has his/her own learning style. Knowing these learning styles can help both teacher and student accomplish academic success. I also believe in a gradual release of responsibility on the student's part. Teaching vocabulary before the actual lesson can help the student understand more completely.
I have recently acquired a Master of Education degree in Education-a lifelong dream. I have taught in both private and public schools in grades PreK-6. I have tutored many students along the way-including summer school for struggling readers and writers. My most recent assignment was a permanent substitute position in the first grade. I am currently tutoring in ELL AND ALL ACADEMIC SUBJECTS. I have passed all the MTEL exams and have helped fellow colleagues with these exams. I also hold License to teach Special Needs.

Literature is one of my top subjects!

I recently completed an internship that used innovative techniques to teach grammar skills to college freshman. I have presented at two undergraduate philosophy conferences, in Salem, MA and in Forest Grove, Oregon. I have experience teaching large groups and one-on-one students, curriculum planning, editing, and private tutoring.

Seeking Motivated Students

I have been a special needs teacher (k-8 moderate disabilities) for seven years, and an Orton-Gillingham instructor for eight years. Prior to my certifications I worked as a volunteer in Boston, Weymouth, and Quincy schools. I earned a Bachelor's in Literature and history in 1993, and am confident about my ability to work with all types of students in all areas of academics. I am a teacher in a substantially separate classroom for children with emotional disabilities. I also work with autistic children each summer in a social skills program. I have co-taught in the general education classroom over the years, and consider myself experienced and well-schooled in all facets of special and general education. I have also tutored children with reading disabilities over the years with great success (no magic elixir, just hard work on the part of the students and my Orton-Gillingham practices). ... read more

My comments on tutoring Literature : I am licensed in the state of Massachusetts to teach English and Literature grades 8-12.

I believe in identifying where a student lies on the subject he/she is studying before going further. The advantage of one on one tutoring compared to classroom is that the lesson can be based around where the student’s strengths and weaknesses are rather than a blanket method. I also believe that the skills used in English can be best practiced and analyzed through writing rather than worksheets and tests. Therefore, I believe in having the student write on a variety of subjects and working through these pieces to show where they can improve.
I graduated from Fitchburg State University in 2009 with a Bachelor’s of Science in English and Professional Writing. I went on to become a staff writer for the Lowell Sun, a daily print publication in Lowell, Massachusetts. When I was laid off due to budget cuts, I wrote freelance for several entertainment and political publications. I a ... read more
