About Me

My reason for tutoring stems from my passion for learning and the desire to communicate what I've found in a way that my students will not only understand, but enjoy. This passion has led me to have a strong command of the English language in all its forms, including the reading of literature and poetry, writing academic essays, a knowledge of grammar, and other linguistic elements such as phonetics to help with teaching pronunciation. Professionally, I've been an English educator for the past 6 years, teaching everything from beginning ESL to college-level argumentative writing. My students have ranged in age from middle school students to adults. My credentials include being a certified ESL instructor, a trained and experienced middle/high school language arts professional, and an adjunct professor of writing at Southern Connecticut State University.

Q&A with Eric

My philosophy of teaching is that students learn best when they can link what they need to know with what they already know. I strive to help my students realize that they have the ability to master the skills they need for success by helping them build on the talents they innately possess.
