University of the South, B.A., Major in English Literature, Minor in American History, Minor in Physics University of Mississippi, J.D. (Juris Doctor) Admitted to State Bar of Mississippi and of Texas. Practiced law in Houston, Texas until partial retirement in 2014. While in law practice I made a constant effort to stay connected to people--not just to work at a desk all day. This just makes work more enjoyable for me and I hope that this quality allows any tutored student to enjoy learning as I do. Have taught adult classes in variety of subjects from 1980 to the present--ranging from legal, to science, to liberal arts such as history and literature. When I teach I want to engage the student or students. I want to grab their interest and keep it. This requires two main things of the teacher: he must know the subject well and he must have enthusiasm for the subject. This almost

I have taught at both the middle and high school level in the subject of English. Within that broad subject I have taught World Literature, British Literature, Creative Writing, Rhetoric, Composition and more. I am currently a Professor at San Jacinto College where I teach collegiate level Composition. I have a hands-on approach to teaching. It is my desire to facilitate a student's own ability to self-teach, to solve and understand new problems as they occur. This type of teaching will not only improve whatever English and reading skills needing improvement, but will also translate into all other aspects of their education and life.

I currently work as a professional science/health writer, and I have a keen grasp of literature comprehension, grammar, and composition. I have tutored students in English, math, and science. Additionally, I have volunteered as a soccer coach, Sunday school teacher, and "Hands-On Science" instructor in the classroom. I previously taught private swimming lessons and piano lessons for children. I believe the key to academic success is ensuring the student feels a sense of accomplishment and pride in self. My method of teaching focuses on determining the best learning style and beginning with lessons that will bring about success, and then challenging the student gradually. I try to make learning fun, while encouraging questions and an "out-of-the-box" approach to problem solving. The ultimate goal is to develop an independent and motivated learner.

As a student at Sam Houston State University, I practiced my teaching skills by offering free tutoring to all of my classmates focusing on study skills, memorization and improving writing skills. I attained a BA in English while maintaining an A average, staying on the dean’s list, and earning scholarships. Minoring in history has allowed me to couple literary pieces with historical background to provide a deeper understanding. I am also highly skilled in college essay writing, teaching various styles and formats. After college, I taught 12th grade English at Lamar High School for two years, with notable improvement of all my students and their success in college, including behaviorally challenged students. I love helping other people, especially those that want to better their lives by acquiring a skill or talent. Many students who seem to “not get it” or have been left behind do learn

As a college level Associate Instructor of both Introduction to Creative Writing and Elementary Composition, I have taught students the fundamentals of analytical reading, writing, and research skills in creative and academic arenas. In addition to my background in teaching, I also tutored in Loyola University Maryland’s Writing Center during my senior year of undergraduate studies. As a tutor I helped students in all stages of the writing process, from brainstorming to drafting and revision. One of the most important parts of my teaching philosophy in tutoring is to adapt to each student’s learning style. While teaching Elementary Composition, I used technology in the classroom in order to make the required subject matter more appealing to my computer-generation students, by giving PowerPoint presentations and showing you-tube video clips as a means to practice analytical skills on popu

Taught my own children phonics, constructed science fair experiments and writing assignments. Tutor: Tutored a child with learning disabilities in Social Science, Language Arts, Spelling and History. My teaching style is thus: First engage the student about what subject he likes, engage in small talk and then tutor the assignments. ALways praise the student and point his or her strong abilities and plus tell the student they can do this assignment. First I let the student try the assignment and then I will jump in and help.
