Creative tailored ways of learning based on students' needs!

Hello! Thank you for your time. In the summer of 2002, I tutored children from ages 6-12 years at an educational camp. I usually tutor young adults, focusing on conversational English, as well as grammar and writing. In addition, I am an editor/consultant for many professionals in writing composition, speeches and presentations, and editing documents. Although my experience is mostly with older students, I absolutely love children and get along with students of all ages. I have a very creative approach to teaching English, coming up with fun and visual methods of understanding key concepts based on the needs of the student, as well as his/her own learning process. My strengths are proofreading and editing, as well as structuring writing to be the most effective in communication. I also earned a perfect score of 6 out of 6 in the writing section of the GRE for graduate school. I al ... read more

Diverse background with ability to adapt learning

I believe that a lack of success in academic's is usually attributed to one of two things; a lack of motivation(it's not fun enough) or a misunderstanding of the fundamentals(which brings a feeling of hopelessness). This is particularly true in foreign languages. Many times a person must rewire their brain when it comes to learning a new language. My goal in tutoring is to help students not just fix a problem but create an overall understanding of what they are learning. I also like to focus on making goals and increasing motivation to learn. It is important to me to teach not only those skills but work on life values like respect, curiosity, creativity, and comprehension.
I have always been a very curious and academic person. I love to learn and like to pass that on to my students. It makes it easier because I have really lived a lot of the things I teach. I grew up ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience consists of working with students in a classroom as well as working one on one with students through tutoring. While finishing my English Education degree I worked with a tutoring group in low income schools. I worked in a middle school language arts classroom. I have also student taught in a senior English class teaching British Literature including Shakespeare and many other complex literature devices. I spent 3 months as a teacher in a resource English class for 9th graders teaching literature, grammar, and testing skills. I used many pop culture references for students to relate to in their studies.
My teaching style encourages relating reading and writing to what they are already reading, writing and listening to. If students can understand language and grammar in their own context and how it is useful then it will be better and easier to incorporate into their ... read more
