Education

Bachelors in Writing, General from University of California-Berkeley

Career Experience

I started teaching English Language Arts at the middle school level in 2006. Part of my daily curriculum included journal writing, vocabulary, and grammar review. I have taught a total of 3.5 years in the classroom, not including my time as a substitute teacher. Online, I have been tutoring writing since 2011, mainly helping professionals and college students. I have worked synchronously on a whiteboard and asynchronously. I have written different types of tutorials for career essays, narratives, nursing literature reviews, business reports, resumes, and literary/art analyses.

I Love Tutoring Because

I like helping students figure out their problems. In college, I had a tutor, and she helped me improve tremendously to help me overcome my learning barriers. Learning how to tackle a problem can be frustrating, particularly in writing. A student might misunderstand the assignment directions or simply be confused. It is a thrilling moment when a student understands how to fix that issue because of my help.

I didn't really understand the citation part of the analysis. I am supposed to write on what I see and discuss that. That's why I didn't include "strong citations". We are actually just supposed to include the source in our citations.

Here is my feedback and it has nothing to do with the tutor at all. This has to do with SWS Formatting. I am frustrated that when I have a question about formatting that there are different places to look and they do not have every scenario that you will run into. I feel that if you are going to replace MLA or APA that you should have all of the scenarios of citation and formatting clearly established and listed in one reference guide. I spend more time trying to find information that ends up not being listed anywhere and most times when I ask someone they do not have the answer or I see in a video after I receive an answer from the professor which is not the answer that I find on the video. It is very confusing and misleading which can result in a lower grade which isn't really the students fault. Can we please get a complete SWS Guide that if there are videos will have hyper links in the document where a student can be taken to automatically instead of having to go to another place to find the videos. The scenarios that I am talking about are clearly defined in the other format guides. I do not see how they are missed in SWS as they are common situations.
