I am offering private tutoring for any topic in English Language Arts for students in grades 3 through 12. With the parent and student, we will decide on dates and times. I have 40 years of experience teaching English. I can work on reading and writing strategies, speeches, grammar and more. I can also help with reading for social studies. I will read with a student or read for a student. I will help students find main ideas, themes and details in reading and writing. If you are interested, the first session we set up will be for me to find out where your child's strengths are and what he/she might need extra help with. Then I can plan our following lessons.
Learning Goals
Students will strengthen their reading, writing, and speaking skills

Words, words, words. Where would we be without them? They can make us laugh,cry, feel, think, reflect and push us to change the world. I have 40 years of experience teaching English Language Arts to adolescents-- and I am still smiling! What can I teach? If it deals with language, I can do it: grammar, literature, essay writing, creative writing, poetry,and word study to name a few. I have also directed plays for over 35 years for kids ranging from 3 to 18, and for adults in community theatre, so I can teach all aspects of Theater Arts. Because I am also an actress, I am energetic, enthusiastic and animated.
I believe, like Nelson Mandela has said, " Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." That is what teaching should be. AND, it should be fun!!
I have a BA in English and a MA in Humanities/Theater Arts, and a lifetime teaching certificate.
I am now retired. BUT, I am not tired of teaching-- it's who I am and what I do. I have 40 years worth of ideas to share with eager learners of all ages. Come learn and play with me.
