Certified Elementary Teacher

Most teachers lack the tim... Read more

Douglas
Writing & Literary Studies
I'm a huge fan of the writing process and an even bigger fan of working with students one-on-one. I'm highly empathetic and I live for sitting down with a student, learning about their writing project (whatever it may be), and helping them formulate their ideas into cohesive written expression, step-by-step. I worked as a Writing Center Consultant at my alma mater, where I assisted students with any and all kinds of writing assignments. I especially love brainstorming and editing for gramma... Read more

Kiana
I'm an eager college student trying to share what I've learned

In Ethiopia I consistently helped my peers and younger students complete their homework, improving their understandings of methods as I did.

I also wrote a lesson plan and taught a 6th grade math class on aspects of "mathsthetics". In India I taught local students twice a week, writing lesson ... Read more

Ms. Celeste or, for smaller children, CeeCee.
