I am an English tutor, proofreader, editor, and lover of the English language. I developed a passion for English while growing up in a family of successful writers. My dad, captain of the pronoun police, played the biggest role in awakening my desire to master English. I could have rebelled against his correction and said ain’t all the time; instead, I embraced it and finished my BA in English—Rhetoric and Composition—followed by an MA in English in 2014. I also earned a Master Tutor certification after completing the College Reading & Learning Association’s tutoring program at El Camino College; this program highlights learning theories and tutorial techniques applicable to all subjects. For 12 years, I developed my tutoring skills working one-on-one with over 4,000 students at El Camino College and as a private tutor for the past year at Tutor Genius. My greatest strength is tuning in to how interested my students are, judging their learning capacity, and tailoring my instruction so they get the most out of our time together. There is nothing more gratifying than empowering students to succeed independently! My current goal is to tutor English part time at the middle school, high school, or college level. If I can help, please email me at SASpearman@AOL.com.
