Steven F - Honesdale, PA 18431 (15.2 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am not a professional teacher, but I played one in newsrooms at several newspapers. During a span of 20 years as reporter, sports writer, copy editor, section editor and editor-in-chief, I trained many new hires -- and even a few veterans -- in spelling, grammar, punctuation, comprehension of written material and in writing. I did not take graduate classes, but I did take the Graduate Record Exam. I scored in the upper 15% in both Verbal and Essay. I do not consider myself a classically trained scholar or academic. My knowledge comes from practical experience and in knowing study approaches in advance of taking standardized test. I am patient and encouraging. I have a talent for identifying how people learn. It is important to know what works with people in order to dail into the proper approach. Some people can read and immediately understand. Others need the repetition of hands-on ex

Mary F - Blairstown, NJ 07825 (29.4 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $43.50/hr.
For more than twenty years I have had experience in report writing, creative writing, speech writing, resumes, and projects. My expertise lies not only in the proficient use of the English language but in skills development. I can teach anyone of any age to discover, embellish, and resourcefully utilize even the most obscure of their talents and abilities.
For twelve years I coordinated and mentored forensic (public speaking) teams that participated in league competitions. I can teach the art of public speaking and can develop “baby steps” required to inspire confidence in one’s ability to overcome shyness and “terror” when speaking to either a large or small group of people.
. My teaching methods include brainstorming, thought organization, use of the thesaurus, and use of adverb and adjective clauses to overcome writer’s block. These are in part “taught” but also developed

Susan B - Woodbourne, NY 12788 (48.4 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I am an energetic, enthusiastic teacher who loves to teach children and adults of all ages. I enjoy challenging my students with fun projects and activities that get creative juices flowing and make learning fun! As a "late in life" graduate of Fordham University, I received permanent Teaching Certification and continued to teach in a public school district for 5 years. I was then offered an amazing opportunity to bring a non-profit pre-school and daycare back to fruition which I accomplished in under a year. Having left the pre-school after an ownership change, I have found myself desiring to go back to my real passion - teaching.
I also have over 20 years of Business and marketing experience working as a Communications and marketing Director in Mid-town Manhattan.
