I have a bachelor’s degree in English with an emphasis in Language Arts, which required successful completion of coursework to teach reading, writing and children’s literature. My e... Read more
Patricia
Retired but Still Teaching
I am someone who loves teaching and learning, and hopes to motivate others to do the same. My teaching experience includes high school, community college and university levels. For many years I have worked with adults who are returning to school to complete an undergraduate degree. Many of these individuals have a fear of writing since they have been out of school for awhile. Since how we communicate definitely affects what we say, I have often focused on the importance of appropriate gramm... Read more

Developing the Differrentiated Learner!
I love math, and have enjoyed teaching it to students who need help. I understand that math can be complicated, and it is not something you get right away. I believe with practice and skill one can be better able to understand it. I know this because I also grew up not liking math but, ironically, ended up teaching it. I have taught Math for the past 4 years in one of the lowest performing schools in the city of Chicago. However, due to my professional development as a Math educator I was abl... Read more

Ammar
Experienced Writing, English, and Composition Tutor
Hey there! I'm Ammar. I've been a professional editor for a year now, and one of the biggest things I've noticed is that many people think writing is something intimidating or daunting, or reading is boring and doesn't interest them. But neither of those things need to be true. Every person is different, and so are the ways a person can appreciate language! I'm certified to teach English, Writing, and Reading up to a professional level; this includes SAT and ACT subjects along with professio... Read more
