    Experienced Reading Tutor

    I have experience tutoring reading, writing and English class at all levels from beginning reading to college-level essay editing. I have assisted with phonological awareness, reading comprehension, spelling, grammar, sentence structure, thesis creation and essay writing. I have worked with students of all ages (ranging from 4-18) and can assist with any writing assignments or general improvement within English Language Arts. Additionally, I have worked with students who have struggled with phonological awareness and may be dyslexic, as well as students who are reading very below grade-level.

    About Joey B.

    5.0
    (3)
    I am from Brooklyn, NY and have taught music in both an elementary school and in one-on-one settings. In undergrad, I majored in Music and Psychology and have experience tutoring and teaching guitar for over three years. I have extensive work experience with kids as a babysitter and a camp counselor in both day camp and sleep away settings. I have previously worked full-time as a music teacher in an elementary school have taught guitar to students of any age! In addition to music, I have tutored students ranging from 3 years old to graduate students in ELA and writing. My specialties lie in essay-writing but I have assisted with learning spelling, grammar and phonics. I have also taught English as a second language. As a former student, I understand the importance and value of a great teacher and I love sharing my passions with others!

    Joey is an amazing and patient teacher! I had never taken lessons before so it was slow starting out, but Joey is very skilled and was extremely helpful. I continue to take lessons and will continue to for a while.

    Joey and I were in the same composing class during undergrad and they kindly offered to teach me guitar. Since I was at a beginner level, I had to learn techniques and music theories from scratch. As a result of their teaching, I was able to progress efficiently and enjoyed their selection of practices. In addition to our guitar lessons, Joey also answers my questions outside of class times, which has been extremely helpful during the pandemic. Joey is a great teacher who's passionate about music and teaching. I strongly recommend Joey to anyone interested in taking guitar lessons.
