Joyce

Former High School and Elementary Principal for English Tutoring

I have worked with students for 22 years. My experience ranges from 5K to Seniors. My first teaching experience was teaching 5K. I loved it and loved to see those little ones learn to read at such an early age. After 5 years of teaching 5K, I moved to the other end of the spectrum and taught juniors and seniors college-level writing. I had very high standards for my students and, as I've always seen them do, they rose to the standards. Many times after graduating and attending college, ... Read more

Merry

Motivating Students to Learn: K - Adult!

In my health psychology doctorate curriculum, I learned basic teaching methods for those with ADD/ADHD. I had already learned to assist my elementary school age granddaughter (who took medication for ADHD) with her homework. It is necessary to (1) remove distractions, (2) organize study materials, and (3) make study expectations very clear PREVIOUS to beginning any study session, (4) then consistently stay on track. It is also necessary to take breaks for relaxation and fun, thus encouraging the student's cooperation. Read more

Betsy

Experienced Educator/Tutor in All Things English!

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in English from Central Michigan University where I also ran the school's literary magazine and worked as a literacy tutor. Later, I earned my Master's of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the University of Alabama while also tutoring in the writing center and teaching first-year composition, creative writing and literature courses...

Cathleen

Experienced Teacher with Added Special Education Credentials

After teaching in upstate NY for a couple of years and then working in Oregon for the last 20 years as a Learning Specialist/Special Education teacher in K - 5 public schools, I have moved to Virginia! Since I did not arrive before the school year started, I have taken a Title I job teaching reading and math in private schools, but it's not full time. That leaves me with some time to tutor. I have an Oregon Teaching License in Elementary and Special Education and my license from Virginia for... Read more


Mark

NY Times Best Selling Author

I worked for 24 years as a journalist, and I received the most satisfaction from helping young reporters improve the skills they needed to succeed. At the newspaper where I worked as an editor, I was assigned some of the reporters who had the most to learn, including one person who spoke English as a second language. She and many other reporters I supervised ended up winning statewide awards for their stories. I also won a lot of awards as a reporter, but I'm most proud of my time helping oth... Read more
