Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in New Market, IN

Very successful at teaching not just the basics but also the conventions and joy of Shakespeare. I combine various styles from "old school" to best practices to differentiated offers. I have taught nearly all areas of language arts including, but not limited to, ECA/GQE remediation, SAT/ACT prep, beginning-intermediate-advance composition, AP English/literature, poetry, American literature, British literature, drama, speech, and school newspaper. I have, in addition, worked with school drama productions, encouraged my "poetically inclined" students to participate in school poetry slams and co-founded a student art/literary publication. I was also voted "Most Influential Teacher" for eight straight years. Additionally, I have been an instructor in adult education with a high pass result for my GED students.

I am traditional in my teaching style.I can be non-traditional once I figure out the learning style of the student I work with. I have been teaching English since 1974. My experience is in teaching learning disabled, accelerated, and students in the middle range. I have taught grades 6-12 along with adult education. I have tutored for the state of Indiana. I have taught literature, traditional grammar, writing, speech during my forty years as a teacher. I have chaired the English department in one of the middle schools where I worked. This is the extent of my experience for this.

I have been teaching in different areas and capacities for three years now. I started by teaching English to Korean students in Daegu, South Korea. Here I taught all different skill levels and ages. When I returned to the United States I began working at Sylvan Learning Center. I was responsible for running the center. Here I was trained in many of the Sylvan Learning methodologies and feel very comfortable in identifying obstacles that hinder a students progression. At which time I incorporate learning strategies that help them get over the "hump" My style is easy to get along with. I am friendly with my students but am able to keep the boundaries of the teacher student relationship in play at all times. I do not believe in giving students answers but rather leading them towards a natural discovery of the answers on their own.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe that all children can learn, but each in their own unique way. My life has been based on a respect for people of all ages and abilities. Based on this, I believe that teacher and student in any situation can stand to respect and learn from each other in different ways. I believe in having an open, positive discussion in order to develop knowledge in specific areas while enjoying the experience. I believe that a good educator can change the world through the education of a child. I strive to do my part to help students develop himself or herself to realize potential. As a college graduate from a private, liberal arts institution, I was very much driven to achieve high levels of excellence in many areas of the world of education. I have earned a Bachelors degree in finance, which has enabled me to have a great understanding of many

I have been teaching English Composition at the college (freshman) level for the past three years. Thus, I feel I would be especially helpful as a tutor for high school students who are interested in both understanding what will be expected of them in college English/writing courses and ensuring that their own writing skills meet those standards. I hold a Masters degree in English with a focus in Creative Writing and am currently working on my Master of Fine Arts degree in Poetry at Purdue. I am familiar with the canonical works of English literature taught in most high school and college curricula. I would be equally capable and eager to assist undergrad/grad students. Students learn to write by writing (and by reading). I have used a number of different text books but I find that students learn best when writing about something that matters to them. My approach to tutoring, then,

I have extensive experience teaching writing to a diverse group of students. After graduating from Indiana University with a BA in English, I taught high school English in East Lansing Michigan from 1988 until 1991. In the fall of 1991, I began work toward a MA in English at the University of New Mexico. Upon earning my MA, I taught English Composition at Grand Valley State University and Albion College. Recurrently, I am a volunteer writing tutor at the Lafayette Adult Resource Academy in Lafayette, Indiana. To the extent that I can, I tailor my teaching to the individual needs of the student. Typically, after assessing the student’s writing and discussing what he or she perceives to be their strength and weakness as a writer and determining what his or her goals are in terms of improving their writing, I proceed to develop a curriculum or plan that I believe will enable the student to

A good education is most important for a child to succeed in today's world. Children have different personalities, interests, and learning styles. They come from different backgrounds, cultures, and family value systems. All these differences need to be considered in planning the student's education. Schools today offer more than just the traditional learning style. Today's schools offer career centers, high school universities, special education, night schools, and specialized alternative education programs. Each student should be able to succeed given the course of direction to achieve his educational goals. We are there to help students succeed by offering them guidance, support and encouragement to reach their dream. I have earned a bachelor degree and a master's degree in Business Education. I have kept my teaching license current. In 2008, I obtained my vocational educ

I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. After many years working in higher education and the arts, I made a career change into elementary education. While working toward that degree, I worked in middle school and some high school as an aide. I worked with students in all subjects, but my natural coursework

I first taught when I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Yemen. I had just graduated with an English degree and a teaching certificate, and I taught English to Yemeni men and women. Over the years, I have taught high school English in Honduras, Michigan, Minnesota and Missouri and ESL as well as one-on-one tutoring in Miami and Minneapolis. I have often taught English when I traveled and found myself in a new place. Right now I’m living in Indianapolis, and I would like to teach English again. I love watching students develop their skills to use language eloquently and persuasively. It’s inspiring to help facilitate that accomplishment. When you learn to play the piano, first you are taught the scales, which you practice over and over and over again. Then you learn pieces of music, with specific counts and phrasing.

My forte is in instruction and delivery - I am creative and innovative, I excel at teaching to multiple learning styles, and I am extremely motivated about getting students ENGAGED in learning so that they are eager to know more. I love to model for the students, as my own excitement for the subject matter is often translated into students being excited. I can demonstrate practices that are based on real-life experiences, I encourage discovery and experimentation, and I am able to help students make a CONNECTION between their needs, their skill level, and the level of mastery they hope to meet. I have been an educator for more than 15 years. I have taught English/Language Arts in the public school classroom setting, and have taught basic skills, ACT/SAT prep, and career education in a variety of settings, including public programming, private industry, and educational programs.

I love teaching and interacting with children of all ages. I believe that every child is unique, and, as such, every child has a specific learning style. As a tutor, I will seek to teach your child in a manner that fulfills his or her needs. I am a patient, friendly, and thoughtful person, and I feel that those characteristics are essential when educating children. These are the qualities that produce a comfortable learning environment, and if a child is not comfortable, they will not be able to reach their academic potential. I look forward to enriching your child’s love of learning. As a student at Earlham College, a liberal arts institution, I had the opportunity to participate in a wide range of academic experiences. As an English major, I have acquired extensive grammatical skills as a result of writing numerous essays analyzing various types of prose. My study of Spanish was also q
