Former teacher of English/Language Arts gives English, essay and writing lessons to middle and high school students, including those with learning issues. Friendly, professional and reliable.
Methodology
Undergraduate of UCLA in communications, received teaching credentials at CSUN, one to teach English and the other to teach those with learning differences. Has tutored students privately for over 10 years, including one student who I helped pass the GED exam.
I provide English/Language Arts instruction to all students from 3rd grade through college, and to professionals who want to improve their English speaking abilities. I also provide reading improvement, writing, essay help and editing, and will help provide research for college level papers.
Background
I have been a public school teacher for over 10 years. After that I have had my own tutoring business for at least another 10 years through the present day. I tutor basically everything from homework help to essays, writing, and English language development for adults who want to speak the language better.
I specialize in helping students with learning difficulties process information and break the material down in ways they can better understand.
