I have very strong skills in teaching the basics in writing. Often times I have found that many students do not have a strong foundation in sentence or paragraph structure. Once these skills have been firmly established, I then have students concentrate on their use of vocabulary, expression, and description in their writing. I like to make learning as fun as possible. I strive to inspire students to want to learn rather than just teach. Communication is a key is a factor in my teaching. Communication between parents and teacher is essential in meeting the students needs.

I'm a writing tutor with more than two years of experience tutoring college-level writing of all sorts, mainly papers but also essays and applications. I've also attended various training workshops about academic writing and helping English-language learners. My tutoring skill-set is robust. In addition to my skills and experience, I also bring kindness and patience to the tutoring table. Writing is a process, so we must try and try again in order to proceed. My tutoring style is geared towards establishing and maintaining a growth-oriented mindset. I aim to help you become more confident and independent in your own ability to write and to learn to write.

My teaching style is fun: relaxed and engaging for my students and for me too. I am serious about giving my clients the best and richest learning situation as possible. I use a modality designed just for that student and perhaps not offered at school. Since I am in a one on one setting I can ideally focus on just that one student's personal needs. I communicate clearly with all stake holders to ensure I am meeting the learner's needs and expectations. I know some of our relationships will be short term to get past an academic challenge and others may be longer to meet your needs. Whatever the length or circumstances I want it to be the best, positively memorable and educationally worthwhile experience for my student. Throughout my successful career as a teacher and school counselor, I've instructed every level from kindergarten to college level. Likewise I've had the privilege of worki

My approach is fairly structured, with heavy emphasis on the "nuts and bolts" of content and on moving smoothly and logically from one step to the next. However, I also like to balance this with use of stories, field trips, and conversations so that my lessons have a well-rounded and user-friendly feel. I worked as an elementary school librarian for ten years. This was a teaching position -- I developed and taught lessons in library skills and assigned grades. I have also worked as a classroom teacher and substitute teacher. Recently, I volunteered for a local immigrant-services organization, tutoring an immigrant from Myanmar in English.

I tutor in technical writing, professional writing, and creative writing. I've taken courses in tutoring, grammar, Shakespeare, and writing composition, as well as worked in the University Writing Center at my university as a writing consultant. I currently tutor three Middle Eastern students in writing composition, conventions of English grammar, and health. I do freelance proofreading and editing. Because English and literature is subjective, I use a nondirective approach to ensure that the student is exercising their creative problem solving skills and critical thinking skills. Basically, I ask them about their interpretation of the text or their own writing. With grammar, I typically model the correct use for the student two or three times, and then have them finish finding patterns and correcting mistakes themselves.
