Joy ChapmanStockton, CATutor Engagement Specialist, Professional Academic Tutor, Certified ESL Teacher
I am very knowledgeable in comprehension and extracting meaning from what you read. Sometimes I help students with the fact of retelling stories, giving ideas, brainstorming, doing an outline, identifying the main idea and summarization, predicting, using prior knowledge, questioning, making inferences, and visualization. Some things I can do are to develop the strategies from a narrative text by using story maps which includes setting, characters, plot, and theme. Furthermore, another thing that helps students with Reading are retelling, prediction, and answering comprehension questions. These are the reasons that I think students should choose me as a Reading tutor.
