Privately, I have taught English speaking,...

...a balance of progressive and traditional teaching. Tutoring one-on-one is the best of teaching. I like to present any given material in two ways, such as aurally and visually, so that various learners can access the depth of the content. An example might be to have them select quotations from Civil Disobedience, put them in their own words, write whether they agree with them or not and create a visual of a selected passage from...

While I tutor a wide range...

...tutor because I love sharing my experiences and seeing students gain confidence in their abilities! Chemistry is a close second mostly because I am currently studying the material for the third time since my sophomore year of high school.

The student's learning style has the highest priority, and I experiment with teaching...

...into the curriculum in my sessions, I offer a variety of approaches to the disciplines. Although coverage of material is crucial, it is more important to teach students skills than things; also, students learn skills best through an interactive teaching style that demands their participation and challenges their abilities. Certainly, all students need grounding in their disciplines, and direct instruction has its place but I am not as interested in whether students know these concepts;...

I also enjoy working with my hands, crocheting, sewing, knitting, and especially cooking. I read when I have the...
