Award-Winning English Grammar and Syntax Tutors in Akron, OH

...in a range of environments, along with 3 years tutoring experience. I have current teaching licenses in both Ohio and Maryland for grades 7-12 mathematics, although I am eager to expand my tutoring horizons! I have helped students succeed in math from Algebra 1 through Calculus, though I would be ready and willing to work on subjects from pre-algebra through Calculus 3 (and a bit beyond). I have also helped students preparing for the SAT,...

...my tutoring sessions. Although I majored in Biology at Duke, I got a minor in Classical Studies - or ancient Greece and Rome - so I have a pretty diverse educational background. In addition to my studies in college, I was DUMB (a proud member of the Duke University Marching Band) and I conducted research on Hawaiian monk seals. In the future, I hope to participate in more field work with marine mammals and eventually...

...my community and, for a while last semester, a student teacher for an Astronomy class at a high school close to my university. I typically tutor in Math and math-related subjects (like Physics!), and can tutor students at any math level through the upper levels of Calculus. I think that Math is my favorite subject to teach because there are so many different ways to present mathematical concepts to a student that one of those...

...I graduated cum laude from the State University of New York at Geneseo, where I earned a BA in English. I have two Master's Degrees: an M.Ed. from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and an MFA in Creative Writing from West Virginia University.

...beginning levels of French as well as all levels of high school Language Arts. I was even able to teach creative writing which has always been a passion of mine. I love literature and the shared experience reading along with students as they create their own meanings from what we have read. My favorites include, but are not limited to: To Kill a Mockingbird, Catcher in the Rye, Macbeth, Hamlet, Huckleberry Finn, Brave New World,...

...break down goals into manageable steps. I'm committed to finding the best strategies to fit each student's particular needs, so I make sure to put in plenty of prep time for each student. These tests and essays are important, but they don't have to be overwhelming - a little bit of guidance can go a long way in helping students feel prepared and confident. I also have a second major in Theater, which gives me...

...enough to have teaching experiences that are both diverse and differentiated in nature. I have taught in the Kenston Local, Shaker City, Bedford and West Geauga School School Districts. Additionally, I have had work experiences in the corporate and communications fields which add to my professional and educational background. The amalgamation of my work history contributes to my skills as an educator and helps me instill the excitement of the learning process to my students...

...Ive worked in a variety of capacities, including several biomedical research positions, as a medical scribe, and a tutor at Varsity Tutors! I intend to apply to medical school during the summer of 2018. These experiences have allowed me to develop an even greater appreciation for the sciences than what Ive learned through textbook learning alone. Through tutoring, I hope to instill the same level of excitement and subject appreciation in my students, not just...

The photo is quite a few years old, but who is counting? I am a teacher with more than 27 years of experience. I am patient and enthusiastic, and possess a genuine love of learning. I enjoy reading, music, and spending time with my children, a boy who just turned 18 and a 16 year old girl.

...7-12 from Kent State University and My Master's in Education from Ashland University. Currently, I am a licensed teacher through The Ohio Department of Education. I believe learning experiences are created through developing authentic and meaningful lessons that challenge students to learn through doing. I also recognize that all students learn differently and that teaching is not a "one-size fits all." I will customize my tutoring sessions to meet the needs of your learner.
