Sal
New Haven native & career English teacher
- $45 / h
- West Haven , CT ( 06516 )
- 35 miles
People often ask me: "Sal, why do you teach?", and the 99.9% of the time my answer is the same: Because it's the only profession (in my opinion) where the daily reward is powerful, thought-provoking and in some cases life-changing. My love of teaching has spanned over ten years in and around the New Haven CT community and in the time I have taught inner-city youth to Ivy League-bound high-schoolers. I have helped countless students find a love of reading, or find their voice in their prose o... Read more

UC Santa Barbara grad student tutoring in English, French, and writing
I am currently teaching French at UC Santa Barbara as an MA/PhD student in Comparative Literature (with an emphasis in French). My education has furnished me with a great background in the humanities, and I specialize in tutoring English, French, literature, and writing. I received my BA in Literature from UC Santa Cruz (cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa). There, after studying French for two years, and taking a French Literature course, I studied abroad in Bordeaux, France, and received straight A'... Read more
Maria
English Tutor Specializing in Writing and Reading
Hello! I'm Maria, a soon to be graduating journalism major. I've never tutored before, but I have taught and led classes related to the school newspaper, of which I was Editor in Chief of for two quarters. In that capacity (and before that in my role as editor and assistant editor of the Arts and Entertainment section) I spent a lot of time teaching experienced and first time journalists the intricacies of AP style writing, the importance of word choice, how to write to catch the interest...

Joni
Experienced Reading/Writing Teacher/Tutor - All Grades/Homeschoolers
With experience teaching students in many different grade levels in English and remedial reading, I can help students who are struggling or just need a little boost. My students consistently improved their test scores in reading and writing. I have recently retired from classroom teaching and am excited to use my experience and knowledge in a one to one tutoring environment. Realizing that many of my middle school students were not reading at grade level, I returned to school to obtain ... Read more

I began teaching in a small school in Missouri, and I fell in love with every aspect of it! I enjoy seeing my students learn and grow. I have a degree in English from Mississippi State University, and I specialize in writing, grammar, literature, and proofreading. I tailor my teaching method around my student's needs and how they learn material. I am very flexible with my schedule, but I need at least 3 hours notice if there is a change in the meeting time. I look forward to helping y... Read more

memorization doesn't last - learning how to think critically does
I believe passionately that the learning process is a collaboration between student and teacher. I will not patronize my students by treating you as empty receptacles waiting to be filled with facts and "knowledge" which will likely fade away by the time you leave the classroom. One of my favorite quotes, which helped me through grad school is from Georg Lukacs, and it goes like this: "Mental confusion is not always chaos. It may strengthen the internal contradictions for the time being but... Read more

It's 10:00 PM, your essay is due tomorrow, and the cursor is blinking in judgement on a blank page. It's okay, we've all been there. We've all been stuck in the grueling limbo between thought and word. We've all been challenged to generate an original thesis or a compelling admission's essay, let alone put it to the page. We've all reluctantly handed in a piece we knew could have been cleaner, more concise, more considered. As a tutor, it's my job to make sure those are thoughts and feelings ... Read more
