Private Live Online Grammar Lessons

I have a keen understanding of the rules and details of English grammar, punctuation, vocabulary, syntax, and the fine points of good writing. I currently provide homework help to students in grades K-8, but have tutored high school and college students as well.
I am patient, friendly, and a good listener, which means that I teach each student according to his or her own needs and learning style.

nouns, adjectives, adverbs, determiners, verbs & verb tenses, speech, punctuation, relative clauses

I have a graduate degree in education with a specialization in teaching ESL/EFL, as well as over 13 years of experience.

It is my grasp of foreign languages that makes me an effective English teacher. For instance, learning the complex grammar of Latin and Greek gave me a thorough understanding of English grammar and the ability to relate to other people’s native languages. I have spent many hours proofreading papers for international students. They find my instruction especially informative because I not only fix mistakes but provide an explanation. When I point out the patterns of grammar, similar mistakes show up less and less, and my students feel more confident that they are writing sentences correctly.

I learned English teaching methods through my tutoring experience. Over a span of four months, I gave a Turkish visiting scholar a systematic overview of English grammar and allowed him to apply it through conversation.

Grammar isn't about what sounds better. There are specific rules that anyone can learn. Whether you are a native speaker or a second-language learner, let me help you solve the mysteries of subject verb agreement, punctuation, verb tense, and everything else. I guarantee that it will painless and maybe even fun.

I've had many diverse experiences which qualify me to teach private grammar lessons at an affordable price. I am a published poet, creative writer, and am currently in the editing stages of writing a book for publication. I edit papers for family and friends and took Advanced Placement writing courses in high school and writing and poetry courses in college. During graduate school, I was selected as a Graduate Assistant, editing book chapters and authoring and co-authoring articles for publication. I'd love to share my passion for writing and help you develop into an accomplished writer!

I'm an uplifting, hardworking, and caring person and my teaching style is encouraging, precise, and collaborative. My goal is to help you be "a cut above the rest". I look forward to helping you reach your goals!
