My comments on tutoring Composition : I majored in English literature and have much experience in compository writing.

I have a bachelor's degree from Howard Payne University. I am currently working as a substitute teacher and have over 40 hours of elementary education related classes. I love to teach children and have a vested interest in their learning and educational growth. I want all children to have confidence in their academic abilities and to be able to use their knowledge for whatever their goals and dreams may be.

Writing is hard. For everyone. But it can be easier.

I allow students to discover answers by themselves by prompting them with questions. This hands off technique reflects the minimalist philosophy of the writing center I worked for, and I have found it is a far more effective way to help students grasp concepts which will globally make their writing better. Understanding the fundamentals of good writing is the most important tool to becoming a good writer; where merely diagnosing an issue and giving an answer for it leads to much more lazy writing in the future. That's what makes fundamental understanding so important, because it carries over into future assignments.
As a student, I earned a 3.87 in my major of English Arts, while both working as an employee for the school writing center and as a contributor for the school newspaper. I also did a lot of moonlighting outside of the writing center as a personal tutor for undergrads, h ... read more

Available 7 days a week.

I am currently entering my senior year at the Woodlands High School seeking any opportunity to earn money to go towards college. Throughout all of my years of high school, I have taken multiple advanced placement and honors courses every year. Previous employments at companies like Shankz Blacklight Mini Golf, and Yucatan Taco Stand have honed my people skills, making it much easier to conduct myself in a public, and especially teaching environment.

Knowledge equals understanding and success when applied.

I have used my teaching degree in the business segment teaching technical training courses in telecommunications, computer technology, and general business courses including customer service, safety and inventory techniques. I have built several technical training centers from the ground up. I have coordinated with various vendors to supply materials to assure that the latest technology available was in place. I developed the appropriate training courses to educate technicians on the latest fiber optic equipment and how to test it to resolve service issues. I also developed and deployed training material to disseminate information on new data base applications in the telecommunication arena. I home schooled my son and he then exited a private high school with honors. I have an interest in helping your student achieve the very best that they can.

Experienced Instructor: Elementary- University

I prefer to teach with open dialogue. Feedback and discussion is one of the most solid methods for evaluating comprehension. If I see that subject comprehension is lacking or missing, it is my challenge to re-present the material for the student (as many times as it takes!).
I teach at a University full time. My experience ranges from traditional students, to special education students, and many non-traditional students (such as those adult students working full time and raising families). I enjoy making science accessible to everyone because the subject is truly fun!

So far I have only tutored one student for a year or so. However, I am very knowledgeable in these subjects and hope to make the best of your child's tutoring experience. And despite my inexperience, I am more than capable of tutoring. I also am willing to respect the established rules and wishes that the student's caretakers have placed upon us meeting.
I use note-cards and mnemonics. I'm also fond of repetition (which will allow the student to obviously retain the information) and often do reviews at the end of a session to further examine what said student is struggling with.

More About This Tutor...

I strive to make learning fun in any way that I can. I always include facts that keep a student interested in the subject I am teaching. I want to make an impression on my students and make them realize that every subject is important and interesting in its own way. My goal is to leave each student with the same passion for learning that I have.
I was a History, Chemistry and Literature tutor while attending Austin Community College. My experience as a tutor for the last five years had allowed me to help perfect my teaching style. My college education lasted ten years and during that time I studied a wide variety of subjects, such as Chemistry, Biology, Literature, Writing, Government, Anthropology and History. I will also be receiving my teaching certificate in the next 2 years.

I believe that a good relationship between student and teacher is an absolute necessity if a student is to be successful. Although the teacher may be perceived as the one who "runs" the session, the student is just as important in determining the extent of the instruction. I firmly believe that the learning environment should be safe and the student should feel comfortable taking risks.
Although I currently work as an Administrator, I have extensive teaching experience with all grade levels from PreK to adults. I have spent most of my tenure as a bilingual teacher, often teaching Spanish, English I-IV, and Speech during the summer sessions. I spent my last five years of teaching as a Bilingual Interventionist which allowed me to acquire intensive training in working with bilingual and ESL dyslexic students. Working one on one and with small groups really allowed me to understand ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I really try to find out how the student learns best as well as what the student specifically is having issues doing. I then try to target those areas of weakness using methods that appeal to how that student learns. I very much like to incorporate the use of technology to make the job easier and more engaging for the student whenever possible.
I have trained adults for about 5 years in total both in a business and education setting. I have taught/tutored students for 3 years in total. My strengths truly lie in my ability to teach writing and grammar. I can teach this from the elementary to college level. I have extensive experience writing research papers and essays in my own college career. I have also taught writing to students.
