Learning is a lifelong process!

Every student is unique and benefits from an individualized instruction. My style is business casual; I am firm yet warm and encouraging with students.
My very first year of teaching was at the Lehigh Valley Performing Arts High School, and I also taught for two years at Northern Lehigh High School. Currently, I am resigned and staying home, but looking to work part time. I have experience teaching grades 7-12 and working with all types of students. The classes I've taught range from Honors English to a class which targeted students struggling to gain proficiency in English related PSSA skills.

My comments on tutoring Composition : I have a degree in English from Yale. I have written professionally for the Iowa City Icon and Textbrokers.

I spent several years in Omaha teaching creative writing at the High School and College level, giving classes at Creighton University, the University of Nebraska at Omaha, and Metro Tech. The program was called Writing Floes. The basic idea is that our ideas are frozen in the oceans of our unconscious minds. Music melts the ice. The goal is to get both hemispheres of the brain in the room at the same time.
Socratic: I ask lots of questions.

More About This Tutor...

I am great with teaching anything within the literary field because I have gone through college and have learned how to analyze each concept to my greatest ability. Through obtaining my bachelors, we had to complete dozens of workshops until we had a perfect piece of writing and this helped a lot with my ability to teach others the typical way to write, analyze and read.

A Little Bit About Me...

I was licensed as a New York City teacher for English/Language Arts, and moved out to PA in 1992. A strong writing background and teaching of literature (classic and world) as well as the language arts (grammar, vocabulary, spelling, etc.) are my strengths. Currently, I am substitute teaching in Allentown while pursuing my state certification here in PA. That has allowed me to work with a variety of grade levels, but mostly middle schools and high schools. As a private tutor I have also recently worked with college students in the writing and editing of their research papers. Professionally, I am a member of ASCD,the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), and the Library of America (LOA).
My teaching style is aimed toward getting the student to master the skill for the long term. It is my belief that a lot of teaching is to the state tests; students do not retai ... read more

While earning my M.S. In journalism at Columbia University, I honed my writing based on the editing of professors who had worked at such publications as The New York Times and The Washington Post. Frequent editing during more than a decade as a professional journalist has familiarized me with the type of feedback most useful to developing writers.. I hold B.A. in English with a concentration in writing, and a B.A. in education, which have prepared me to help students improve their compositions. I have tutored English learners online for three years and spent more than a year teaching an SAT-prep essay writing class.
I am a patient, encouraging tutor who believes in students' inherent ability to learn. I excel at making complicated concepts accessible through questions aimed at helping learners draw their own conclusions. My thorough knowledge of sentence structure , ... read more
