Hi, I'm Alan. I currently tutor English to more than 20 students monthly, each with unique needs. My skills are tools to help each student reach his or her individual goals.

Learning French in school was difficult for me, so I understand what it can be like to become comfortable learning new academic skills. The best teachers were able to engage me and create an enjoyable, creative, supportive, and relaxed learning experience.

While a lesson plan should include foundations of English (writing organization, literature analysis, vocabulary, grammar, and mechanics as necessary, each with its own content), it should also tailored to each student's particular learning style and interests.

I combine my tutoring experience with my master's in education and my master's in psychology (both with highest honors) to bring this learning environment to each student during every lesson. I work from each student's strengths and I'm enthusiastic and patient. My goal is to make everything we cover understandable. I encourage questions; no question is too simple, and questions help me create future lessons. I welcome suggestions from parents and students. I also make sure that each student fully masters the lesson material, and I sometimes extend the lesson for a few minutes to ensure that students are completely comfortable with parts of a lesson that were especially difficult, or for extra practice. I am retired from law now, and tutoring continues to be a wonderful experience. I include a second free hour after the first free lesson so I can set aside time to more thoroughly understand each student's best learning style. I am easy to reach and respond very quickly. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson. Kindly note that my tutoring skills are best suited to students 10 or older.
