James R.
Private tutor in Fairhope, AL
Education
I have an MA in English and have taught writing and listening in East Asia, Japan and China, since 1989. I have taken some time off from teaching there and have returned to the U.S. The writing program at both The Chinese University of Hong Kong/Shenzhen and Shenzhen University are similar to the writing which is required of native speakers. In fact, the writing of many of my students at The Chinese University exceeded the writing of native speakers.
Experience
I have taught for more than twenty years, ten at Chinese universities, and have also tutored middle school students in writing. I want to be a tutor so that I can help students met the requirements at their school and to maintain my teaching skills. For the past three years I have taught academic writing, which is very similar to the writing that is required of native speakers. The format was APA and the content of the essays required critical thinking and developing a thesis with supporting details, all of which needed to properly cited.
