Hi there! Thank you for your interest!! I am Tonya S. I love to teach, write, learn, and bring people together. I excel at teaching the five-paragraph essay to middle school and above age groups.

I truly believe in working smarter, not harder. With a firm grasp of a five-paragraph essay, a student can conquer many writing assignments in secondary education as well as higher education.

I have a Master of Arts in Teaching as well as a Bachelor of Arts in English. My master's degree is from Western Carolina University, and my bachelor's is from the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma. I am also a veteran.

I am passionate about working with students and enriching their lives through writing, I believe that writing is something that can heal the soul. I have taught English Composition at the University of Oklahoma and Redlands Community College.

I have been tutoring and mentoring other students since I was in kindergarten. I excel at tutoring in writing, English, and language arts, as well as grammar and composition.

I approach learning not thru a standardized lesson plan but thru customized lesson plans written for the specific student I am tutoring. I meet the student where they are at and work from there. If you like a holistic approach to learning, I'm your girl.
