Learning to write is like learning a new language. It can be done by breaking tasks into small manageable chunks. With a bit of help and patience, new skills are acquired and the essay form is mastered. I am a certificated high school English teacher, but earn my living by writing. I understand the frustrations students face -- narrowing a topic, constructing a thesis, organizing material, and creating compelling transitions and conclusions. Learning to write clearly can make you a bett... Read more

Education is my passion. I naturally love to learn, challenge myself, and help others do the same. I earned a B.A. in Psychology then began teaching Middle School English. You would think this career choice and degree were unrelated, but it's actually all that kept the middle schoolers from driving me crazy! While teaching, I earned a B.S. in the Biological Sciences and earned a biotechnology certificate afterwards. During this period, I also kept up a healthy volunteer pastime teaching a w... Read more

I have taught for approximately 27 years. I have taught grades 1 through 6. My basic philosophy is to be the kind of teacher that I would have wanted my two children to have. I treat each child with respect, kindness and the belief that they will succeed. I am very encouraging, and will treat your child as an individual with his or her's own unique learning style. The fact that you are seeking a tutor for your child shows me that you are a concerned parent! Learning is a team effort, the ... Read more

Hello! Welcome to my WyzAnt tutoring profile. I have a master's degree in developmental psychology and program evaluation. My graduate degree taught me not only about psychology and program evaluation, but also how to manage my time and stay calm under the pressure of writing research proposals and calculating tough statistics. Knowing how to stay calm under pressure (like pop quizzes!) can be half the battle. On top of helping students learn the concepts of each subject, I can pass on s... Read more
