Awesome! Pure Gold!
Michael, 2 lessons with FatumaWas very helpful in helping me figure out APA format and citations! When you see her, then you know you are on the right page! Highly recommended! She is one of the best out there! I didn't know how to use APA citations until I met her! I would rate her 10 stars if there was an option!

About Fatuma
Bio
Hello, I'm an experience 7-12 English educator and I love teaching reading and writing. I've always had a love for the written word. I was the kid who would pretend to go to bed, but would actually be under the covers reading a book by flashlight. Now, my job is to spark and/or maintain a respect for reading that is often lost by the time students get to the upper grades.
I graduated magna cum laude in 2013 from Pace University, Pleasantville with my bachelor's as a dual major in English...
Hello, I'm an experience 7-12 English educator and I love teaching reading and writing. I've always had a love for the written word. I was the kid who would pretend to go to bed, but would actually be under the covers reading a book by flashlight. Now, my job is to spark and/or maintain a respect for reading that is often lost by the time students get to the upper grades.
I graduated magna cum laude in 2013 from Pace University, Pleasantville with my bachelor's as a dual major in English and Adolescent Education and received my Master's in English Education from City College of NY in 2019. As a student at Pace, I worked as a Writing Consultant in the Writing Center for three years. As a Writing Consultant, I helped fellow college students with papers on all subjects and in both MLA and APA styles. Undergraduates and graduate students could be at any stage of the writing process and would be welcomed and leave feel more confident about the paper they'd been working on.
I have eight years of teaching experience in 10th and 8th grade and over 10 years of online tutoring experience. I enjoy working with students to clarify their ideas and gain confidence in their writing ability. I believe that everyone has a voice and something to say and having strong writing skills enables you to always have a way to express your beliefs. Though mainly a writing tutor, I am happy to help with anything English related, including reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, it literature.
I am mainly available to tutor online. Wyzant has an amazing online platform with video, audio, whiteboard, and text editing features that makes it super easy and convenient to get help from the comfort of home or the dorms. Please contact me for more information, any questions, or to schedule a session or an online demo. I'll get back to you as quickly as I can.
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you. :)

I've been teaching 10th Grade English for 5 years. Every quarter, my students take a sample Common Core English regents to provide me with data. I use that data to prepare them for 11th grade, when they take the English regents. Each year, about 20-30 of my current 10th graders do well enough to sit for the regents a year early, making them eligible for A.P. English courses for the next year.

Excellent tutor!
Fatuma H. is very helpful and patient with me if I didn’t understand a word or a quote she would reread it to me and explain step by step what I didn’t understand so I can understand it better.
