Creative and dynamic articles as a journalist is very important. I also am a great writer for long term papers in courses that require research and all the basic elements that put together A+ work. I can help you learn and create a style of your own to make writing enjoyable and not a chore. It is very important to learn young, in school and throughout college. I am currently a writer for the MAC football conference on football.com. I just graduated from Michigan State University in Kinesiology, while I was a teaching assistant and tutor for writers and other athletic and medical fields. In college, I took many writing courses including writing research and creative writing, all while earning perfect scores and helping my peers.

My teaching style is flexible to meet a particular student's needs. I can provide short-term assistance for short-term projects. For longer-term tutoring, I like to take an inventory of a student's goals, as well as a look into their curriculum.

I have taught in Dearborn Public Schools for 34 + years, 32 of which were in grades 9-12. I truly enjoy the process of teaching and watching students improve. Lack of confidence is often the cause of low achievement. I concentrate not only on self-image and confidence, but on ACTUALLY IMPROVING SKILLS so the student's confidence will come from within, not from mere positive re-inforcement, but from actually experiencing their own growth. I love to teach writing skills, reading improvement/comprehension, grammar, and all aspects of English language arts. Teaching for me is more than a job; it's a calling. I know how important English communication skills are to success in ALL subjects, and my approach helps students to realize the connection between English and all academic areas.

Employed at Oakland Community College 2010-2011. I have been a tutor at OCC since 2010, but have had a lot of private experience prior. My methods are very effective, yet unconventional. This serves both you and me very well because I like what I do and you get the knowledge you're seeking. I can always understand a student's individual needs because I have been around such a large variety of learning styles. Also, I believe that a "set" lesson plan is worthless for English because who's to say that everyone with a specific problem is not understanding it for the same reason? One person may not understand the use of paragraph formation for a completely different reason than the next. Casual, but very effective.

Since being awarded a master's degree in 2008, I've taught English composition, literature, and reading comprehension courses at Wayne State University, Henry Ford Community College, Oakland Community College, and Jackson Community College. I am currently a professor of English at Wayne County Community College. The collaborative learning approach, where students are encouraged to discuss what and how they're learning, is most effective. Students tend to engage much better with course material when the instructor has discussions with them, as opposed to lecturing at them.
