Susan works with students online in the evenings, Monday through Friday, to assist with grammar, punctuation, vocabulary, comprehension and writing assignments. The tutoring sessions are student-led, requiring the student to be prepared with questions and a desire to learn.
Susan has worked with students grades K-12.
Students should look for a tutor who will challenge, encourage, and enlighten them. Like Plato or Socrates, a good teacher (or "magister/magistra" in Latin) is one who pushes the student (or discipula/discipuli) to think through problems from many different angles. This strengthens the most vital organ - the brain - in order to help not only the individual, but the populus as a whole.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should have, at the very least, a basic idea of their short term and long-term goals. Are you interested in becoming a speech writer for the President of the United States of America, or are you simply wanting to better your knowledge of the English language? There is nothing more painful for a student (or a teacher of the student) than slogging through the muck and mire of hard work with no strong, attractive and rewarding goal at the end of the road.
Students should also be realistic about how much time they are willing to spend studying or working on a subject per week. Practice makes progress, and there is absolutely no replacement for practicing.
