Modern Tutor
About
I really love helping students craft a paper that allows them to fully express themselves, their identities in writing, and their logical ideas/arguments. I foster this accomplishment by working with each student individually, and devling deep into the language behind their expression to best benefit their writing.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First I like to find out the project we are working on together, and look at any grading rubrics that are associated. I then go through the whole paper from start to finish, and look at what has and hasn't been met on the rubric. Once the content is organized and the metrics met, we do a run down of any grammar, sentance structure, syntax, etc.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Masters in English with a focus in Teaching ESL that I earned at the University of Toledo. During my time and studies I tutored in a writing center, and taught several English composition classes.

How did you get started teaching?
I really started teaching as early as high school. I really discovered my passion for helping people, and felt that my mastery of certain subjects could really benefit learners on their education journeys.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students as young as preschool, to as advanced as graduate students. My experience includes native English speakers, and ESL students. I am familiar with learners from Asia, Europe, and South America.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
During some of my first classes, I became very fond of watching my first students grow, as I grew in my teaching style with them. Watching both of us develop was a truley beautiful moment. Despite the many difficulties, we sucesfully completed the class and achieved not only educational growth, but personal growth as well.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
I would tell the student to find a tutor that can best understand how to incorporate their identity and expression in their works to truley make it their own. These values of pride and dedication to creating your own individual work is something that I and my business strive to accompish in the students we help.
