About Lana

I have been assisting elementary school students with homework since 2014, working for The Ocean Township School District as a care taker for an after school project extend program. In 2016 I co-professed an environmental science class of Brookdale Community College students in Lincroft, NJ, grading and mentoring them on proposals for environmental initiatives such as littering, EPA water concerns, and composting. Finding my work first-rate, a private progressive school on the shore of New Jersey, Voyager's Community School, asked me to work for them. An accredited school, I taught environmental science through the application of active learning, proposal writing, and existential question answering. The students learned about the environment through writing a successful composting proposal for their school. Additionally, I was an assistant teacher for the middle school class, assisting in all subjects for my allotted time available. I instructed these students in literary analysis. We discussed literature with worldly curiosity, personal relation, and discussed how books like "Lord of the Flies" was applicable to our personal lives, art, and political world. This would often lead to intellectual debates. Allowing students to debate, I assured they learned proper argument edict. I taught there into the spring of 2017, began tutor a student in literary analysis until I moved to New York this September of 2017. My students have walked away from my lessons with an open mind and heart. They tell me that they walk away knowing and thinking more about the world than when they started. They, most importantly walk away loving to learn.

About the lesson

Hello there! My name is Lana Leonard, a student, a teacher, a tutor, an artist, but more specifically a journalism and music major at The New School in downtown New York with various teaching experiences. My lessons to students open up how connected the world is rather than how divided it is. My style is quite simple. I keep my teaching bipartisan, encouraging students to speak and learn intellect and ideologies of philosophical thinking and possibility. Asking questions and applying knowledge to one's own life is important and allows for exceptional doors of epiphany to open up the world of a student. After all, the learning is for them, not for me. However, students teach me as much as I them by having ideas and concerns to share. With that said, passion is very important to me. My passion for teaching tends to inspire a passion for learning and that is where the magic of knowledge blooms. As a teacher, I am fun. I am a listener. I am a mentor for students to take guidance from as they do the work they once may have felt they could not complete.

-Hello! So I just wanted to clarify payment. I charge $25 per hour for tutoring. There are some variations in payment under certain circumstances, so here is some clarification if need be:

-When having to travel I charge an extra ten dollars, making my hourly fee go from $25 per hour plus $10, so if I tutor for two hours, for example, that's $50 plus the $10 travel fee, making my payment $60.

-When tutoring over webcam I charge 20 percent less, so my payment is simply $20 per hour instead of $25 per hour.

-I do have some discounted packages. I offer packages of 5 hours for $115 and a package of 10 hours of tutoring for $240.
