Assignments
1 hour per week. Students can complete assigned tasks (research or exercises) to develop their abilities or write papers to apply their skills. These can be requested as coursework for their school classes, or we can complete assignments to assist them with strengthening their skills and abilities.Class Experience
US Grade 9 - 12
Beginner - Advanced Level
I can teach APA and/or MLA format, depending on the student's preference, as well as researching techniques, brainstorming, outlining, thesis development, academic writing & mechanics, and paragraphing. I will cover any of these topics that the student wishes to delve into and any that we see that they may need more practice with. The class is loosely structured in this way to adapt to the student's level of learning and needs. I will let students explain what their challenges have been and we will dive into these areas as well as areas that they may not have known before. My style reflects an engaging approach to allow students to explore subjects through their interests. We will engage with lecture, slides, games, discussion, examples, demonstrations, tutorials, and I can provide video tutorials for students to keep.
