About Joanna

The effort I put into learning has always proved worthwhile, and for 14 years I enjoyed tutoring at university and college level, especially because such work is cross-disciplinary. Now, as a private tutor, I teach students at all levels: from 6th grade through college/university and to PhD level.

In any given semester I work with eight to ten students, some of whom return to me as their work and expectations rise. I especially enjoy working with ESL students as I have visited many of their homelands (such as India, Africa, or Asia) and can understand some of their cultural perceptions. My original qualification in the medical field also enhances my appreciation of studies in science.

As a teacher, I love sharing the pleasures of learning with others. Of course, as a 'special credit' graduate for my first degree, and 'summa cum laude for my second,' I understood that passage through graduate and PhD programs would require even more hard work. The experience has deepened my appreciation and knowledge of what surrounds and informs language, even as my students have realized their potentials and achieved successful grades: whether 'he' was a Russian polishing a dissertation in Oceanography, or 'she' was an American completing a thesis on ESL Education.

That is why I specialize in English language, literature, and writing: my interest reaches to all subjects which inform those arts. It extends from classical and Biblical rhetoric and themes, through socio-historical and philosophical contexts, all the way to present-day science and “pop” culture. My background knowledge arises from this inter-disciplinary base; however, whether students focus on GRE vocabulary, college essays, theses, dissertations, or material for publication, my goal is always to enhance their ownership of the undertaking.

To this end, I may coach in skills such as word choice, sentence fluency, idea development, content, organization, argument, or voice. To deepen interest in projects, academic writing often involves reading and identifying intertextual relationships, so I also support conventional use of reference and research materials. Thus empowering students to interpret, evaluate,and interact with their worlds, my tutoring caters to individual requirements.

As my personal standards are high, I ask for feedback that will helavbp tailor my methodology to individual learning styles. The rationale is: “When you succeed, I have succeeded.” Such is the beauty of one-on-one tutoring; when our work results in high grades, I am as happy as the student is.

My policies follow those set out by Superprof, and I am glad to offer the free initial consultation so that we can discuss your wishes. After that, I also maintain the necessary efficiency of requiring notice of any cancelation. Please, then, don't hesitate to contact me if this level of knowledge and performance interests you.
