Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Zionsville, IN

I am an experienced teacher/tutor. I will focus on the designated subject area and work to fill any learning gaps that exist for that subject. I will work to empower the student to learn tools and study strategies to help them when the student works independently. The study session is divided into a variety of learning activities to hold the student's interest and enthusiasm. I am friendly, personable, understanding, and caring. I feel responsibility to maximize the time allowed for the session, and remain upbeat and encouraging as we move forward to learn and reinforce skills. I will communicate with the parent about areas of instruction that occurred.

I have been teaching in different areas and capacities for three years now. I started by teaching English to Korean students in Daegu, South Korea. Here I taught all different skill levels and ages. When I returned to the United States I began working at Sylvan Learning Center. I was responsible for running the center. Here I was trained in many of the Sylvan Learning methodologies and feel very comfortable in identifying obstacles that hinder a students progression. At which time I incorporate learning strategies that help them get over the "hump" My style is easy to get along with. I am friendly with my students but am able to keep the boundaries of the teacher student relationship in play at all times. I do not believe in giving students answers but rather leading them towards a natural discovery of the answers on their own.

For three years I taught high school seniors in an Advanced Composition class where they were being "trained" in the specific paper styles that are found in college classes. I am well aware of the writing process and the different types of papers colleges and high school require for graduation. I am a very hands-on learner, so I tend to try to make things as hands on or as real to life as possible. Since graduating from Baptist Bible College in 2006, I have been teaching high school English in Indiana for six years now. I taught three years at Bethesda Christian School in Brownsburg, where I spanned English 9, 10, 11, Senior Speech, and Advanced Composition for seniors. In 2010 I began teaching at Faith Christian School in Lafayette; there I taught English 9, 10, and 11. I was also the Yearbook Advisor two years at Faith.

Having written for various publications and also received top marks for my college essays, I am a seasoned writer. Weather you need assistance in giving your resume a bit of pizzaz or you need help in developing your ideas for a research paper, I can assist. I have worked with the French public schools teaching English to non-English-speaking French students. This was a joined effort between my universities and the public school system. In addition I have worked for various families as a nanny, where it has often been my responsibility to teach their children the English language. I am a very-hands on teacher. I think the approach to teaching most any subject is making it "real" for students. Talking about the impact of a historical event, having daily conversations in a foreign language, and keeping a journal are all examples of exercises that I would use to help students who are strugg
