- Shawnee Mission , Kansas ( 66226 )
- 20 miles
For the past ten years, I have enjoyed teaching English (both literature and writing courses) at the middle and high school levels. The middle school students I taught seemed to need the most help with grammar and analyzing literature. As a result, one of my strengths is teaching the parts of speech and sentence structure as well as essay construction. At the high school level, I taught eight different courses (the school runs an English elective program that is quite unique), so if you are ... Read more
Kyetta
Licensed Substitute Teacher grades K-12
Hi - My name is Kyetta. I am a graduate of Baker University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Management with a minor in Accounting as well as Fashion.

Deon
BA - Religious Education of Middle Eastern History
If you are open to explore outside the box and are looking for a fun yet challenging way to look at an ancient book through new eyes, I can teach you fascinating facts and perspectives that are missed in traditional Biblical reading and interpretation. As one who had been immersed in the Spiritual teachings of the church but realized there were missing links and unanswered questions, I began a quest to search for insights into the culture and geography in which the events and writings actual...

Jacob
Experienced ESL and French Teacher
I have been teaching English as a second language and French for ten years now. My experience has mostly been with secondary (middle) school students, but I have also taught some high school language courses, especially French literature. When it comes to second-language teaching and learning, no method has worked for me more than a comprehensive approach, involving all the skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Having learned a foreign language (French) myself, I understand ... Read more

Jonathan
English--specialty in research writing and literature.
I am absolutely fascinated by the English language and have spent my academic career studying it. Being able to share that fascination is one of the things I enjoy most about teaching. However, I know many people, no matter their walk in life, struggle with the intricacies and utter confusion which goes hand and hand with communicating in (arguably) the most complicated language in the world. I have a life-long interest in teaching. After scoring a 31 on my English ACTs when I was 17, I w... Read more
