Rebekah G.

My name's Rebekah and I'm an English teacher, though I have experience teaching World Cultures, Geology, Astronomy, Art, History, Piano, Voice, French and other subjects. I hold an ESL certification, have nine years experience and specialize in University/College Prep. Teachers should be enthusiastic, creative, personable and dedicated to their students--all traits I have innately. I am only interested in students who are willing to work hard to excel (as most are by nature) and would love to hear from you. Please inquire if your student is struggling or has been labeled "unteachable." I have a certain passion for seeing the "hopeless" blossom.

It is a fast-learning method that starts with the letters used most often in the English language, then words you can use with those letters, and so on. It taught reading and writing at the same time. I found this method... Read More

Public Speaking

I've been giving public presentations since I was very young (7 years old), when my mother encouraged me to sign up for a program "for developing ability as a speaker and a teacher", as the program still claims today. It is an excellent program offered through our place of worship that has prerequisite lessons that teach a person how to listen to students and speakers, how to do research, how to write "talks" or presentations, etc. After those lessons are completed, students have to complete 53...

Great Tutor — To start with, Rebekah met me on a really short notice (an hour), and tutored two for one kinda deal. My sister and I both needed help, and she said she'd normally charge us for two people, but since we're both students, she only charged us for one to help us out. In an hour, she was able to help us both re-write the papers totally. She helped me with time (like, past, present, future), and she ...
