I enjoyed a nearly three-decade career as an English teacher of middle school and gifted high school students. During that time, most of which I also served as a department chair at a local Day School, I created and administered material covering every aspect of the English curriculum, including, most importantly, composition and literature, as well as grammar, vocabulary, spelling, and speech. I also inaugurated and led several interdisciplinary initiatives, sometimes administering a program... Read more

Robert
NU Classicist Teaches Traditional Grammar, Writing, and Revision
- $125 / h
- 1 rating
- Park Ridge , Illinois ( 60068 )
- 0 miles
I help my students apply the traditional principles of grammar, logic, and rhetoric to their writing. Many are working professionals and graduate students looking specifically to revise and polish their written work; others are retirees who are writing reflectively about their careers or personal lives. My instruction is not so much about “creative writing†as it is about taking a rough draft through its necessary revisions by working from no-nonsense, traditional principles by which we can p...

Lisa
Experienced Writing Tutor, with ESL student background
- $36 / h
- Park Ridge , Illinois ( 60068 )
- 10 miles
I worked for 1 year at a university writing center, averaging 8 hours per week of tutoring. My tutoring style is above all conversational: getting to hear directly from a student about where they are and how I can help them. This style involves moving beyond grammar to improving the clarity of a student's writing, strength of an argument, and building greater comprehension. Additionally, I have established relationships with several international students, for whom English is not their fi... Read more
