Today is a great day to learn something new!

I am a full-time high school teacher with over 12 years of experience in education. I specialize in Science, but have experience teaching and tutoring most levels and subjects. Throughout my 12 years in public education I have developed many skills to accommodate various student needs. I have a love for learning and inspiring my students to be life-long learners by making content meaningful. Teaching and learning is successful when students not only "know content" but are able to create connections and demonstrate real-world applications.
I foster development of the whole student by encouraging critical thinking. My methods are adjusted to meet the students needs with an individualized approach. My goal is to promote self learning and help students develop necessary critical thinking skills.

I love working with children of all ages. Children can learn very fast by talking, playing games and if properly taught they can remember in the long term. I am here to help children of all ages from english to math. I am very easy going, become a little kid with a child and am always smiley. I have a goods ways of explaining basic math, algebra, basic accounting and any business courses for older students and i can work around their way of thinking. I strive to make a difference in the people, as my position as a resident assistant allowed me to and as a law student wanted to make a difference. Because law didn't allow me to do so, teaching and working with kids helps me make a big difference.
As an undergraduate student I have worked as an Resident Assistant, where I was helping students all around campus. I have tutored and helped friends in the area of Accounting, Algebra, basi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My work experience in industry and my intensive graduate academic training well positioned me for college level teaching. I taught a variety of management and finance courses including Introduction to Management, International Finance, International Management, Strategic Planning, Procurement, Accounting, and Systems Development as a full-time Assistant Professor at Merrimack College until I started a family and then taught part-time for many years. After moving to Rhode Island, I taught at both Providence College and Bryant University as an adjunct lecturer. Currently, I am an adjunct lecturer teaching Accounting and Management at Johnson and Wales University. In addition, I tutor SAT Prep for the children of neighbors and friends.
Teaching is my vocation and as a highly trained analyst, I take great joy in shaping strategy and understanding how all the elements of business fit ... read more

As a student teacher in a third grade classroom in West Hartford, CT, I had the opportunity to create and implement active, hands-on lesson plans in all subject areas including thematic, cross-curricular units on Forces and Motion, Native Americans, and Poetry as well as assess, evaluate and monitor student progress.

I have earned a BS degree in Business Administration and recently completed my MEd in Elementary Education.

With normal class size groups... the goal is to provide a lesson with real educational content but to deliver it in a totally entertaining format... usually organizing the students into groups to a) provide support for the challenged and b) excitement for the total class as each group competes against the others. one-on-one teaching requires that the objective(s) be well established and then carefully focus on the individual student's best learning method, be it: verbal, written, reading, hands-on, or all of the above. In general a good teacher will be well planned and offers a delivery which teaches in concentrated bursts, with a brief break every 20 minutes.

I believe that every student can learn with proper guidance and a positive attitude. First, I get to know my student and then I find out what difficulties they’re having i.e. the need to learn at a slower pace or distracted by sports or other things? Using those answers,I develop a program that makes learning interesting. I encourage student participation,praising the effort they make. I thank them for coming to the sessions and putting in their time and effort, making my students feel that the subject matter is important. It continues to motivate them to achieve greater results. I try to demonstrate to them that learning this material will matter in the future and that it is building blocks and not stumbling blocks to greater things.

I truly enjoy teaching. I am very easy going and I can make subjects easy to learn. Since I have an engineering background, I have the tendency to break complex problems into smaller parts. This makes it easier for the student to follow through. All my students in the past have enjoyed learning from me and I am certain that this will not change. I truly believe that anybody can learn math and science; it is a matter of time and perception. In other words, at what angle can the student learn the subject at hand and how quickly can the instructor find the student's vantage point.
While pursuing my Engineering degree at Roger Williams University, I noticed that there were not too many students from low income families attending college. That is why I joined Bridge to Success Program on January 2001. BTS was a program, sponsored by Roger Williams University at the time, which focused i ... read more

I recently graduated cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with two Bachelors of Science in Marine Geology and Maritime Law. I teach sailing and environmental education in the summers. This means very little however as I aspire, one day, to become a lighthouse keeper. Sadly, few can find such a position these days. I enjoy writing, science, mathematics, literature and most all music.
When I taught sailing to young kids, I used to dress up like a pirate. I have lots of energy. I know I'm doing my job right when kids start laughing. When I taught to teenagers, I kept in mind my own experiences at that age. If I'm helping a student study hard on that big, important test that might have the ability to crush the student's soul - I bust out my acoustic guitar and sing about how It's The End of The World As We Know It (And This Test Means Very Little In The Long Run ... read more

I graduated Bentley University with a 3.75 grade point average in 2007. While at Bentley, I participated in our well respected Service Learning program where I tutored elementary school aged children in math and a variety of other subjects after school hours. As a Senior at Ernst & Young, a Big 4 Accounting Firm, I delegate and coach auditing and accounting tasks to staff on a daily basis. This has given me real life experience in reinforcing the concepts I learned in college while I complete my CPA exams. Additionally, I am a recent participant in the Junior Achievement program where I led five lessons to 28 second graders, teaching them simple business and community related concepts.
I have worked with younger children teaching simple arithmetic and with college students/recent grads teaching them auditing and accounting concepts. With younger children, I have used games, fl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My tutoring practice employs the Socratic method to help students help themselves become better writers, self-editors, and critical thinkers. I do not take a red pencil to their work and "fix it" for them. I do not put words into their mouths to then put into their pens. Their voices remain their own. A strong tutor welcomes and encourages this ownership and self-expression while teaching at the same time. A strong tutor also provides steady, patient guidance and gentle correction, but true learning takes place when students "see the light" for themselves -- a direct result of the collaborative effort involved in the tutoring experience.
I discovered the reward of helping others learn as a high school tutor. Later, as an English major, I tutored in our university's Writing Center. After graduation, I was asked to continue as a tutor/writing consultant for eleven more ... read more
