Experienced Writer and Teacher of Literature and Writing

I am a skilled, veteran teacher with a varied career background. I have T-6 certification (based on my law degree) in English 7-12 and ESOL P-12 with a Gifted In-Field endorsement. I have a syllabus for AP English Language approved by the College Board, and I taught the course for the last three years. At Dunwoody High School, I taught the Gifted World Literature component of a unique seminar class, year-long on the 4x4 block, combined with AP World History. I've taught Gifted American and World Literature and AP English Language. I served as English Department Chair at Cross Keys High School. In 2013, I received the Dunwoody High School Yearbook Dedication.

Learning never ceases; so, why should you?

My teaching style is a mixture of strict and lenient. I try to form a connection with students and apply that to my teaching method (i.e. incorporating a similar hobby in a question in order for the student to understand the material better). I expect my students to give me and the other students respect- never speaking while others are speaking, no disruptions, ect. This method of teaching has shown effective and a fun learning environment. I base my curriculum around the importance of reading. Reading is the easiest and most effective way of obtaining knowledge and using it in the world.
I have had the honor of working with many kids in regards to a variety of fields. My experiences taught me responsibility, patience, the importance of learning and education, and much more. The various teaching opportunities I have been fortunate to have have impacted my social and educational li ... read more

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I taught Macbeth to twelfth grade high school students while student teaching at Berry College and have an comprehensive understanding of Shakespeare plays. I can explain the language and stories in a context that any teenager could understand.

I graduated from McIntosh High School in Fayette County and studied English and Secondary Education at Berry College. I student taught for a year at Rome High School before graduating and becoming a substitute teacher in Fayette County. I have completed three long-term substitute positions, two of which put me in charge of an entire classroom with all the responsibilities of a full-time teacher. Additionally, I worked at Aloha-USA Mind Math with Elementary Students as an English Teacher and occasionally a Math teacher.
I opt for making the material relatable to my students, which causes it to be more interesting and meaningful. When something is relevant, it is a lot more fun and kids are much more willing to want to learn, which is, of course, ideal.

Shakespeare is one of my top subjects!

I earned my B.A. in English from Oglethorpe University in May 2007, and am currently completing my Master's thesis in English from Villanova University. In addition, I have served as a writing tutor at both schools over the past four years, working with students one-on-one to improve their writing skills. I have experience working with students both individually and in a group setting, primarily working with them on their writing and helping them to develop critical thinking skills. I have also spent time as a peer editor for Villanova's CONCEPT academic journal, helping to review and select academic papers for inclusion and then working with the accepted authors to prepare their work for publication.

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate, I participated in two tutoring programs, over the span of two years, teaching middle school children afterschool and teaching Dominican immigrants during a summer ESL program. While in high school, I also was appointed by my high school principal to be an assistant instructor/tutor for an AP World History and AP U.S History course. While teaching and tutoring AP World History students, I helped my pupils prepare for both routine classroom exams and the AP exam by designing pneumonic exercises for facts, as well as coming up with creative ways of teaching reoccurring historic themes.
I am a firm believer in understanding facts/concepts, and not simply memorizing or cramming them for a brief period of time. Therefore, my approach to tutoring is to present material in a manner that allows a pupil to learn at a comfortable pace, while crafting a lesson plan spe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I use a hands-on approach when teaching my students. I believe the only way to master anything is by doing it. I encourage my students to incorporate their ideas, and give me ideas as well, so that I may cater to his/her learning style. I am patient,nurturing, and very understanding that not everyone catches everything the first time,but with patience,diligence, and much practice we can all succeed at any task at hand. For these reasons I do not discourage students from making mistakes, but encourage them to learn from those mistakes, and seize every opportunity. In the end I guarantee that your still will love learning, master his/her subject, and may even be able to tutor others in the same area!
Throughout all of my years of schooling, I have always been a high-achieve and always driven myself to exceed expectations. Beginning in high school, I tutored all high school math-wh ... read more

I graduated from Spelman College in May 2009 with a BA in English. As an English major, I learned to think critically, use proper grammar mechanics, proofreading skills, critical reading techniques and research and argumentation skills. I wrote numerous papers on many subject matters and received very high marks. In the last four years, I have served as a mentor and tutor for various grade levels and different educational levels. In my time as a tutor and mentor, I helped many students with their reading and writing skills.
While teaching, I employ the constructivist learning theory. I begin with what the student knows and build off of their prior knowledge. To test what they know beforehand, I would administer a short pretest on some basic skills and once that test has been evaluated, I will begin teaching from the information with the least familiarity. While engaging in one- ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As the oldest child of a family with seven, I have an intuitive understanding of child psychology and motivation. I have a sincere love for children, and I am pursuing a career as a teacher. The children I have worked with who have learning challenges have been the most influenced by my positive reinforcement. I focus the most attention on changing the way they think about learning, and keeping our approach simple. I practice the material with them as much as needed, reward progress and constantly remind the student, "You can do this."
I have five years of experience in teaching, childcare, mentoring and community service. My bachelor's degree in History from the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign indicates my highly developed verbal and writing skills. In addition, on a recent verbal teacher's exam, I achieved a score of 750/800. I plan to attend a Master's program ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In response to your recently advertised job position, I would like to share with you my experiences working in the related field. I have over five years experience working for a non-profit, child caring institute for DFCS and DJJ children. I have worked directly with the children in managing behaviors and I have worked indirectly in creating individualized treatment plans, assessments, and behavior modifications.
My teaching style is to lead by example. Being that I am a visual learning I try to work in steps showing them what is expected and them I allow them to slowly work it out themselves based off of what I've done. I've done a lot of teaching to children with Autism and our teaching style varied to fit the way the child was able to learn. I also took Educational Psychology in graduate school and learned the meaning of intentional teaching, which is teaching with the intent of ... read more
