Deborah: South Holland tutor

Certified Tutor

I am passionate about teaching others the appreciation of reading and the process of writing. This passion transfers over to the method that I use to tutor students. I encourage students to be able to develop an understanding of the tools they need to develop comprehension skills and become proficient writers. I work patiently and with an understanding that each student is unique in his or her learning style. Through the use of student practice and teacher observation, I am able to develop a plan that fits each student best.

I currenlty teach Secondary English to junior and senior high school students. I have taught in middle school and high school settings in three different states. This background has given me the experience and diversity to work with younger and older students.

I received my degree in Secondary English from Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania, and later received my Master's degree in Education from Neumann University, also located in Pennsylvania.

I enjoy working with students from all levels, and I welcome students with various learning styles. I am willing to work with younger or older students.

Hobbies

I love the outdoors and the change in seasons. I try to spend as much time outside as possible. As part of my routine, I walk frequently throughout the year for the purpose of appeciating nature and getting an opportunity to exercise. I enjoy fall festivals and outdoor sports, including attending college football games. I love winters and look forward to winter weather and its splendor. In the spring and summer seasons, I spend time at the shore as much as possible.
