Rocky River, OH English Lessons

Various writing and reading skills applied

I have taught over twenty English students from kindergarten through college graduates (research papers, policy analysis papers, etc.).

I build language arts skills in speaking, reading comprehension, listening and writing. I cover vocabulary, spelling, grammar, sentence structure, tenses, subject-verb agreement and punctuation, etc.

Let me show you how successful you or your child can be!

I have a graduate degree in education and over 13 years of teaching experience.

I have been teaching English for eight years. I am TEFL certified and a native English speaker. I tailor the curriculum to the student with their own goals in learning English. Each person has their own needs and learning style so I find this works best. I also have lived abroad in France and Switzerland. Je parle francais. Yo hablo espanol.

Want to speak English more proficiently? Want to sound more like a native English speaker? I can help you learn more clear pronunciation, learn idioms, and learn the vocal inflections that are common in American English.

I work with early struggling readers to enhance their fluency, understanding of passages, and sight word recognition in order to get them to grade level reading standards. I just finished a term with Americorps teaching kids from pre-K to 2nd grade students English. For younger children, I focus on letter sounds and decoding and recording techniques, as well as small passages. I am excited to share my knowledge with others who want their kids to have a great start in school or help kids who are struggling in school.

Hi! My name is Celeste and I have been an English teacher for 9 years! I love to tutor and have been tutoring since I was in college. I love working one on one with students to help them find that "got it" moment! My teaching belief is that each person has their own unique way of learning and expressing their ideas/thoughts and it is my job to find it and help you succeed!

I have been teaching English since 2009 and I just love to bring the best out of my Students.

If you want to learn why English *actually* functions the way it does, let's talk. English has a terrible reputation, but that is mostly a problem of misunderstanding. I can tell you why there is a "w" in two, why we spell admit with a "t", but admission with an "s," and how malady and habitat are related to each other! This is hugely helpful for spelling and vocabulary. I'm expanding my learning in this area every week, so we'll be on a language journey together.

Words can be hard and bad. I understand how tough it can be to string thoughts together in a way that makes sense, and the challenges of parsing a complicated text. I will teach you how to structure your thoughts into a cogent argument, how to approach analytical questions (whether in a class or on a test) in a productive way, and I will teach you how to make your writing shine.
I really empathize with the struggles of school and college admissions, and I try to teach in an open, kind, and engaging way. I'm passionate about literature and I want to help convey that passion to you!
