Graduate Student Specializing in Language Skills

- Easthampton , Massachusetts ( 01027 )
- 20 miles
Hey, I'm Dylan! I'm a Ph.D candidate studying American Literature at UMass, with an emphasis on works from pre-1865. Before that, I grew up just outside of St. Louis, Missouri, and got my B.A. (in English and Philosophy) and M.A. (in English) from Southern Illinois University. Part of that endless school means teaching, and I spent the last 5 years teaching writing and writing to college undergraduates. Although I was skeptical at first, I've fallen in love with the teaching of writing bec... Read more

I have a love of learning and a passion for teaching! I hold a B.S. in biology and have completed extensive coursework in chemistry and physics as well. I scored in the top 5% in the math section of the SAT and the GRE, and the top 10% in the verbal section of those tests. Of course, intelligence alone does not a good teacher make. I am a firm believer that any subject can be accessible and interesting if it is properly explained. I have found that the teachers who best facilitate learning... Read more

I like teaching students, and helping other people get better.

Tom
Qualified History and Writing Tutor
- $45 / h
- Florence , Massachusetts ( 01062 )
- 25 miles
History and writing are areas of learning that challenge many otherwise strong students. The key to opening this door lies in forging a personal connection with the material and then turning to learning organizational and mechanical skills. The “ownership†of ideas is the primary ingredient in a forceful persuasive essay–-the cornerstone to success in Social Studies and English. My approach to teaching and tutoring was honed in University, High School and non-traditional settings. I earned... Read more
