My comments on tutoring Journalism : Published in university newspaper several times.

I allow students to discover answers by themselves by prompting them with questions. This hands off technique reflects the minimalist philosophy of the writing center I worked for, and I have found it is a far more effective way to help students grasp concepts which will globally make their writing better. Understanding the fundamentals of good writing is the most important tool to becoming a good writer; where merely diagnosing an issue and giving an answer for it leads to much more lazy writing in the future. That's what makes fundamental understanding so important, because it carries over into future assignments.
As a student, I earned a 3.87 in my major of English Arts, while both working as an employee for the school writing center and as a contributor for the school newspaper. I also did a lot of moonlighting outside of the writing center as a personal tutor for undergrads, h ... read more

Knowledge equals understanding and success when applied.

I have used my teaching degree in the business segment teaching technical training courses in telecommunications, computer technology, and general business courses including customer service, safety and inventory techniques. I have built several technical training centers from the ground up. I have coordinated with various vendors to supply materials to assure that the latest technology available was in place. I developed the appropriate training courses to educate technicians on the latest fiber optic equipment and how to test it to resolve service issues. I also developed and deployed training material to disseminate information on new data base applications in the telecommunication arena. I home schooled my son and he then exited a private high school with honors. I have an interest in helping your student achieve the very best that they can.

Read More About Kelly G...

I have trained adults for about 5 years in total both in a business and education setting. I have taught/tutored students for 3 years in total. My strengths truly lie in my ability to teach writing and grammar. I can teach this from the elementary to college level. I have extensive experience writing research papers and essays in my own college career. I have also taught writing to students.
I really try to find out how the student learns best as well as what the student specifically is having issues doing. I then try to target those areas of weakness using methods that appeal to how that student learns. I very much like to incorporate the use of technology to make the job easier and more engaging for the student whenever possible.
