Learning Improves with Positive Reinforcement.

I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem.
I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.

Highly Experienced Teacher/Director looking to help students

Students best learn by doing, by experiencing, and from a variety of experiences that incorporate their five senses. Students learn with different paces and styles. There is no one way for a student to become well-rounded, it is just a matter of providing experiences where the student can learn from the environment. It is not a matter of one student being better than the other, rather it is a matter of students learning in different ways.
My experience entails a well rounded experience of teaching students from preK to adult. My most important position was acting as Director of Education for Sylvan Learning, where I basically ran the learning center. I supervised teachers and all student programs, conferred with parents from the beginning to the end of their experience with Sylvan, and did so much more to develop a positive experience with all clients and teachers involved.

Reading is the Key to Success!

I have worked in the field of education as a teacher for 30 years. I have taught basic skills in foundations of Reading to middle school students. I have also taught all subject areas to elementary school children. The most memorable and most valuable experience in my career was teaching first graders how to read. It takes a trained professional to be able to lay out the framework children need to learn how to read. Reading skills on the first grade level are the most rudimentary and applicable to all grade levels there after.
My teaching style is flexible. I create a lesson plan that is individualized and benficial to that of the student I am tutoring. I adapt and adjust the curriculum to what is of primary importance to my student.

My comments on tutoring Reading : Certified in NJ

Interactive, based on the needs of each student to attain proficiency.
I have taught and/or tutored all the languages I have rated myself as an expert since 1952, and am still doing it presently, concentrating on remedial tutoring. I am also certified to teach Spanish; even though the system does not allow me to show more that three subjects, I am an expert in and as a native speaker of the language, I consider myself more than qualified to teach the language.

Every child can learn, just not in the same way!

I am an Elementary school teacher for 6 years. I have my BA in Psychology, from Rutgers University, and hold my teaching certificate for Elementary K-6 and Special Education K-12. Prior to being a teacher, I have worked for an outreach program, working one to one with Autistic and Down Syndrome students. I have taught every subject in elementary education and continue teaching every summer by working for my districts summer school program.
I love hands on teaching through games and centers. Keeping students engaged is my top priority. Due to the recent happenings in the world, I am offering online tutoring for the time being. However I would love to continue my tutoring journey, in person, with your child once the world is back to normal!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a B.S. degree in Meteorology from SUNY College at Oneonta which required a great deal of mathematics, especially in calculus. I have taken calculus I, II, III, ordinary differential equations, general physics I & II, general chemistry I & II, and number theory. Other courses taken that involved mathematics were: physical meteorology, atmospheric dynamics I & II, weather analysis and forecasting I & II, micrometeorology, and remote sensing of the atmosphere. With these courses, I have developed a strong understanding in both math and science. I interned at Teterboro Airport as a Meteorologist in 2005; forecasting for local businesses. I also collected/analyzed data for a severe winter storm that hit the Northeast in 2004.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in all teaching styles, especially since no one child is the same; everyone is unique and different. I am patient and considerate while providing the best education to students. My approach to teaching is hands on, and practice makes perfect. To teach is to actually touch a life forever. I actually teach children the way I would want someone to teach my own children. I also repeat and use many samples to make sure the child actually understands before moving on to the next topic or subject.
As a graduate from the distinguished Norfolk State University, I have a drive and passion to work with children. I have earned my BS in 2007, and since then have worked several jobs in the school system. I have immense communication skills, writing, and organizations skills. I am a competent. compassionate, cooperative, and committed leader. I started out as a tutor/ mentor while still ... read more

Read More About Brittany D...

I have always been a very hardworking student. In high school, I graduated 15th in a class of 301 and took college level courses in Calculus, Chemistry, and English my junior and senior years. I have earned my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with an Emphasis in Mathematics. I enjoy math immensely. However, since I completed my degree online, I also have extensive experience in writing and grammar skills. I taught preschool for one year, and have been working as a nanny/tutor for a student for 2 years.
I have found that any student can learn. The key to a student's success is that education must be approached in the correct manner for that individual student. Not all students learn in the same fashion, and that must be considered in planning and implementing lessons. I believe that education needs to be approached in a fun way that coincides with the student's indi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach and help others in general. I always had difficulty when I was younger finding a tutor or some help in my studies that I could understand easily. I am a very patient and have a great sense of humor that come in handy during subjects of frustration. I believe if you can bring a child into their comfort zone and put the directions in the most simple fashion, a child can learn anything! I'd love to turn a subject they avoid into a subject to brag about...
I just graduated with a BA in Psychology and are two courses short of a minor in Spanish and Sociology. I've always been very strong in the English/Language Arts/Writing areas as well. I am currently a certified substitute teacher and also already do some elementary tutoring. Some of my previous tutoring experience include writing, some psychological statistics and some basic math/language skills.
