During my years teaching English literature, at The University of British Columbia in Vancouver Canada, I quickly discovered that the most rewarding and effective moments between student and instructor occur in one-to-one meetings. The tutoring environment is the ideal classroom, where a single student’s learning needs, academic desires and questions can be fully catered to, fulfilled and explored. I have worked with first-year university students, middle school students, all levels of high school students, and older adults.

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I've taken several courses in Shakespeare, but since graduating college the only thing my anthology has been good for is standing on to reach things on high shelves. I'd love to put it to good use again!

Because English and literature is subjective, I use a nondirective approach to ensure that the student is exercising their creative problem solving skills and critical thinking skills. Basically, I ask them about their interpretation of the text or their own writing. With grammar, I typically model the correct use for the student two or three times, and then have them finish finding patterns and correcting mistakes themselves.
I've taken courses in tutoring, grammar, Shakespeare, and writing composition, as well as worked in the University Writing Center at my university as a writing consultant. I currently tutor three Middle Eastern students in writing composition, conventions of English grammar, and health. I do freelance proofreading and editing.

More About This Tutor...

Building rapport with my students is key; if they know I'm dedicated to their success, they'll be more confident in asking questions and trying new approaches, taking an active role in their learning. I keep a stress-free atmosphere of empathy, patience, encouragement and understanding. To match my students' methods of learning I often draw and write my own examples while using other media to spark creativity. I guide students as they work and provide immediate feedback and solutions. In this way, they can build upon their lessons and continually sharpen their skills for success. It is extremely rewarding to see my students improve--I am wholeheartedly invested in making it happen.
