Duck, NC Writing Tutors

Description: I hold a graduate degree with honors in business (minor in international business) from a prestigious university. My minor as an undergraduate (also with honors) was international studies, minoring in geography. I have also over a decade of experience teaching at the undergraduate level, so I understand ¨the other side of the lectern¨. I have a 2 year old son, so my experience at that level is a work in progress. . . .      << View Less

Description: When Stephen tutors, he utilizes Vygotsky's scaffolding method, as well as the "Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD)" method, to ensure maximum effectiveness in learning. He also uses the theory of Bloom's Taxonomy to hone in on the learning style of the student in order to maximize the effects of study. Stephen continually encourages an excitement in learning, and demonstrates this excitement as he tutors.
Stephen's tutoring philosophy: "My job is not to be the expert. My job is to condition the student to be the expert."      << View Less

Description: Do you, or your student, need help with written or spoken communication? Or would it help to have a concept communicated in a different way? I'm a Lifelong Learner. I'd like to help you, or your student, develop a love of learning, as well! My specific areas of expertise involve communication and language arts. However, I've also tutored history and math, as well. A bit of background may be in order. I graduated with honors from Idaho Falls High School and took home several awards in the Debate program. Then I graduated from the University of Idaho in Telecommunications and a minor in Music. Now I am enrolled in the Advanced Writing program with AWAI (American Writers & Artists, Inc.). Since graduating from the UofI, I've been involved in radio, concerts, seminars, and advertising.      << View Less
