Joann R.

Private tutor in Plainfield, IL

Education

I am a retired teacher who has taught in middle schools, high schools, and college settings and adult education for 30 years. My course of study throughout my college years included a B.S. degree and M.A. degree with a 3.8 GPA. I have attended and taught courses at Eastern Michigan University and the University of Michigan. I majored in English & Language Arts and Business Education.

Experience

Since my retirement 2 years ago, I have been able to meet in tutoring sessions with several students in the Naperville/Plainfield area. I have currently begun to work with a magazine publisher as a copy editor and want to open up the possibility to help local students become better readers, writers, thinkers, and test takers. Not only is my work dedicated to helping others succeed, it keeps my intellect as sharp as it can be for the long run.

Hobbies

I am an avid world traveler as evidenced by the coffee mugs, souvenir spoons, and nick-nacks around my home. I grew up in a large family on a farm. I have 3 brothers, 5 sisters, and a dad who is still "kickin'" at 95. Even with our various personalities, I have learned how important it is to be able to get along with others to be successful in life.
