Certified teacher specializing in ACT

I believe every student can learn. The key is to find your student's strengths and inspire her or his internal motivation. One on one teaching makes a significant difference even in the most reluctant learners. For those who are motivated to earn their best score, I routinely see more than 3 point gains in Reading, Writing/English and Science on the ACT. Because of the family resemblance of standardized tests, you will see not only ACT score increases, but improved English and Math grades as well. While my specialty is Verbal and Science, I have a number of incredible strategies for the math section that can help your student answer 6-12 more questions correctly.
I am a certified teacher, currently practicing in Covington, La. I've taught ACT and SAT prep for 7 years, along with the essential skills intervention required to raise scores. My teaching experience includes: 10 years cl ... read more

My comments on tutoring English : Can teach any level of English Literature or Grammar.

I recently obtained my Bachelor's Degree from the University of Southern Mississippi, where I graduated in the top of my class with a 4.0. While there, I often tutored people in writing and research, as well as serving as a Teaching Assistant for various classes including: Theatre History, Voice for the Actor, and Shakespeare. In addition to my degree in Theatrical Performance, I received a minor in English Literature. Since I've been home, I've been helping some of the younger members of my family with their writing and study skills, and their grades have greatly improved since we've started working together. I love teaching and spreading my passion for learning, and I can't wait to show your child just how valuable and fun knowledge can be!
I'm very laid back, but I know how to get results. I have always been a very disciplined student, but I realized pretty early in my acad ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I stopped working in the hospitals when my oldest child reached the age of 5, so that I could teach my children at home. The four of them are now grown and successful. I employed many techniques during my time homeschooling them, as between them were exhibited several learning styles. It was a delightful experience.

My comments on tutoring English : A broad understanding of reading, writing, and communicating properly, English students will be encouraged to read and retain what they have learned, communicate effectively through grammar and correct spelling, and write well-ordered and logical responses to questions. A great course to improve general reading, writing, and speaking.

Hands on, project based. Whether with a group or one-on-one, I consider learning to be best experienced when all five senses are utilized to their maximum potential. Students of all ages will learn through creative game play, creative projects, and creative writing.
Throughout undergraduate and now graduate work, I have always had a passion for passing along what I know, in hopes of teaching and inspiring, and developing others. I have two years of private-school teaching behind me, as well as two summers working with inner-city kids in a program that used the arts to bridge the gap between social and educational shortfalls within the city. I am well read and well versed in classical and current literature, with published articles and short stories to my credit. I look forward to not just teaching and passing on information, but rather to inspire people to think for themselves, ... read more

Private lessons in Creative Writing!

Ahrend R. Torrey is a Mississippi spiritual poet- painter. His poetry relates to nature and spirituality but most of all life and what he experiences through his life journey. Torrey delights in the fact that all things are poetry, and strives daily for the creative mission for which he has been called. Torrey began writing poetry and painting at age 14; from the time of discovering his talent he held a conviction that his work would one day touch the world. Writer and personal historian, Thomas Gilbert, one of few who the poet has confide in, and who writes and has written about Torrey on several accounts, describes the artist as "a young man and poet with an incredible gift and strong faith.” Awards: • 2010 MGCCC Creative Writing Award • 2010- 2011 Honors Scholarship • 2011 MGCCC Prose Poetry Award • 2011 MGCCC Haiku Award • 2011 MCCCWA State Poetry Award • 2011-2013 Presidenti ... read more
