Zachary S.
Private tutor in San Antonio, TX
Education
Certified, current teacher in Northside Independent School District. Specialization in American and British Literature, Poetry, and Vocabulary Strategies. B.A. in Humanities, M.A. in English Literature.
Experience
Current, licensed teacher in English Language Arts for grades 6-12. 15 years tutoring and teaching experience (grades 6-12) in English Languages Arts (Literature, Reading, Writing, Grammar, Vocabulary), SAT prep, and AP prep. As a current teacher in the public school system, and, considering the current landscape with the advent of the Core Curriculum, the STAAR, and EOC tests (all with different preparatory methods), I have to be up to date with the state requirements. Because of this vantage point, I am uniquely poised to streamline the focus of the unguided, apathetic, or otherwise unprepared student to excel in the too-often muddled environment of overcrowded classes and intractable bureaucracies of the public school system. I believe that every student is capable of greatness, and with compassion and determination, coupled with expert knowledge of the current, complicated educational requirements, we can successfully address any issue.
