More About This Tutor...

I am a friendly, out going person who is very invested in my students work. I believe that to write well one must have a relationship with the content that matters to him or her. I enjoy learning about a person and taking on a mentorship role as well as a direct and focused editing role.
I have extensive experience tutoring and mentoring students in creative writing and composition arenas. As lead teaching assistant for entry-level undergraduate Creative Writing courses at Oberlin College, I facilitated small group workshops, provided students with feedback on their writing, and wrote lesson plans designed to help each individual improve technically as a writer. I met weekly with individual students to provide stream-lined, individualized feedback. Last summer I worked in Harare, Zimbabwe as a teacher of Creative Writing. I lead workshops in poetry and prose. I have experience edit ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to educate children of many ages I have a 4 year old and a 2 year old in the house. You teach many different aspects of life, not just academically. Being a tutor for grades 6-8 was different because they had the basics. They needed to be informed and focused. Substitute teaching grades K-8 was rather different because the children acted as though they haven't learned anything, so you had to make them feel comfortable. I love teaching with repetition and visual. With patience, understanding, and love a child can learn anything.
I am a well round person; strong in geography and Latin American history. With my BA in Geography I would be able to help out with Physcial, World, GIS(Mapping) and Latin American History classes (12 cr.) Resent knowledge in medical terminology, medical office ethics, privacy, billing and coding. Most of my career has been in GIS (Geographic Informat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although I have no formal teaching experience, I do have been developing my teaching style for many years while I worked with the developmentally disabled. I learned to identify a teachable moment, which is a time at which the student would be most receptive to learning. As a tutor, I would create those moments and boost confidence by encouraging the student to explore the subject in the way that is most interesting to them. When a child or student asks a question, I will guide them through a thought process so they can come up with the answer themselves.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a minor in journalism from Oswego State University. While in school I studied psychology and child development as well as great works of literature. I have always had a knack for grammar and spelling and I enjoy proofreading documents and helping others to develop their ideas. I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

When someone 'gets it'-that is the most rewarding aspect of education. I encourage excellence, not 'just getting by.' I will raise the bar for a student and coach them along so they improve their confidence and self-esteem in the learning process. I believe that the teacher should provide the tools and resources and the student should use that information to help themselves achieve success. It is through the satisfaction of learning that you are capable of so much more than you even knew that great growth and achievement occur.
As a political science and social policy major I have been required to read, research and write collegiate level papers. I strive for excellence in my writing and ability to help others improve their writing skills. As a health educator, I did lesson planning, creative activities and group facilitation. I also provided individual counseling to those w ... read more

I believe effective learning can occur in a 1-on-1 tutoring situation when the tutor and the student can communicate well. Tone, mood, and setting all come into play. A tutor who is relaxed, cheerful, encouraging, and resolutely intelligent is more likely to be approachable and someone the student will collaborate with successfully. I believe in active listening and working together to establish a method of studying.
I took high school and college seriously. After college I worked for several years before attending law school. After law school I decided to combine my legal experience with hands-on medical skills, and I enrolled in a Registered Nurse program at SUNY Delhi, which I will complete next May. This summer is a lull before completing my education and embarking on a medical administration career.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and believe that all students can learn. There are many ways to interest them; and with technology, all students will research and work with language and culture. I have had great success with students on a one-to-one basis. In language learning, some students have needed out-of-class time to work privately with me. I have also advised students and interested them in doing projects for club activities.
I am a pursuer of hard work and performance. I have a double major and a singular bachelor degrees and a master's in literacy as language is very important to me. I have taught and worked as a substitute teacher in the public school system for the last 25 years. I also play the piano, keyboard and organ. I have accompanied students privately on in groups as well. In my language education jobs, I have also taught culture of the English, French and Spanish l ... read more

I have always had a passion for reading and writing and a love for sharing that passion with others. During my time at Hartwick, in addition to pursuing my degree, I worked as a tutor at the writing center. I also ran a number of study groups for students who were struggling with other aspects of the English curriculum. During the time since graduation, I have continued to tutor students of various educational levels (from elementary to college level) in all aspects of English.
My teaching style would best be described as creative and flexible. I find it important to meet each student where they are at and figure out how to make the material make sense for that student. I find that many people are discouraged with English. The three biggest reasons are they have decided they can not understand the material they have been given to read; they have decided they can not write and ... read more

Through my years as a tutor, I have come to believe in the ability of each student to improve his or her writing skills. I have worked with students at many levels of comprehension and aptitude, including ESL students, and I have witnessed the confidence that grows through contact with a kind and effective tutor. I have become skilled in figuring out each student's needs--are they nervous about revision? Intimidated by grammar? Stuck in the brainstorming process? I have the tools to tackle any writing problem, and can think on my feet for that one solution that will make the difference. There's nothing better than seeing a change come over a student's face when a breakthrough has occurred or an idea has come to life between the two of us.
I graduated magna cum laude from Bryn Mawr College, where I received a BA degree in English and a minor in Creative Writing. I have also been the ... read more

Confidence is critical in learning, and that is what I always try to instill, through gentle but firm instruction and the ongoing development of a student's feelings of personal responsibility for learning.
