Profile Details

Experience Summary

I have tutored and taught classes online and in-person for over 24 years and am nationally board certified teacher and tutor. I have edited over three-thousand essays and have tutored for standardized test preps including the ACT and SAT, teacher certification exams, ASVAB, GED, GMAT, GRE, and the LSAT. I am also a teacher and tutor of grammar, poetry, and all aspects of writing and rhetoric. I have taught middle school through college-level English language and literature in the public and private sectors. I tutor for results in the majority of standardized tests, including all teacher certification tests. For the past 20+ years, I have taught and tutored English and ESL. My credentials are available as a public TN educator look up. I am now retired, and have much more time to devote to my tutoring. The years I I have taught have been extremely rewarding and fulfilling. My students exhibited diversities in learning styles, backgrounds, cultures, and interests. I have taught English to students at various levels, including, standard, honors, and advanced placement. It has been, and will always be my utmost goal to tailor my teaching methods to best meet the needs of all of my learners to ensure the highest level of success for each of my students/clients. I have now obtained my Ph.D. in education and am nationally board certified.

Teaching Style

My students exhibited diversities in learning styles, backgrounds, cultures, and interests. I have taught English to students at many levels, including, standard, honors and advanced placement. Additionally, I was an active club sponsor and peer mediator. It has been and will always be my utmost goal to tailor my teaching methods to best meet the needs of all of my learners in order to ensure the highest level of success for each child. When I began my teaching career, my passion for English propelled me to initiate and nurture the same love of literature and writing in young people. However, although the aforementioned mantra remains in tact, another overarching mission evolved––to devote myself to the betterment of children’s lives using all of the knowledge, experience, skills and devotion that I have to offer. Two of the greatest rewards that I have received thus far in my teaching career are those of seeing the successes of my students, and secondly, having the wonderful gift of lifelong learning for myself.

Reading, Music, Film, having great conversations.
