I have been an educator for 23 years,as an elementary school teacher, and in special education at the secondary level. I have a master's degree in learning disabilities, and have worked on a Child Study Team for the past 14 years. I believe all children can learn if taught to their individual learning style. I have taught home instruction and tutored high school students in English, math, and science.I have a flexible work schedule.
As an educator I have the opportunity to help my students find their strengths, build on them, and guide them on their future path. This opportunity can also be a challenge. It becomes my responsibility to rise to the challenge and be the person they say was important in shaping their future. I want to be prepared to help students recognize their strengths and how those apply to a profession, how to prepare for the transition from school to the work ... read more

Academic inquiry and standards for achievement serve the self-directed learner's quest for personal and professional success. Additionally, the social and emotional learning model takes educating adults, and even youth, into new dimensions. Its application includes development of the whole person, not just the intellect.

My personal teaching philosophy is that there is no teaching without learning. Most classroom studies are at least partly removed from their intended application, for reasons of assuring comprehensive competency and because of the educational structure, i.e. attending school comes in advance of and separately from applying one’s knowledge. However, learning a language,for example and especially while living in it has both a need for constant practice and occasion for immediate application. The broader linguistic community has thusly prioritized practical teaching methods, of which I wish to avail myself.

I've been working with children since the day I got my first job. I don't know if it is the fact that I am the oldest of 6, or if it is just in my blood to teach . My first job was at a very small day care that consisted of about 14 kids, ages 1 to 12 . I helped the older children with their homework and with the younger children, our day consisted of fun learning games . I also worked at Unlimited Tutoring for 3 years, there I helped tutor children ages 6 to 15 in Math, Reading, English, and History.
In all my years of teaching, I came to the realization that every child is different . When it comes to teaching, I like to learn a little about the child first. Then once I know everything I need to know, I go by what interests the child and I use that to teach them . Although sometimes it is not as simple, I do what ever it is that I have to do to ensure that the child is learning .

Having served as both student and teacher, I can appreciate how daunting science can be to the student. I believe that my experience in this field gives me a unique perspective into the learning process necessary to grasp the intense subject matter, but also to empathize with my students when they encounter difficulty. In my experience, students are often resolute in their determination to fully grasp the rudiments of science; however, many of them become disillusioned as the level of the subject matter increases in complexity. I find that a balance can be struck, and maintained, to ensure that students of all levels receive the attention necessary to successfully complete the course material, and even excel, which is my ultimate goal.

I like to gauge where the student is then go from there. If a student is having a problem, I try to see where there might be a gap in the backround knowledge, then fill it in, or if there is a problem in their processing of the information, I try to correct it. I do this fairly quickly. I'm typically able to tell just from a student's eyes as they look at a problem or how quickly they approach it, if they're having a problem. If I've worked with them for a while, I'm frequently able to know exactly what that problem is without them even saying it. I try to break the problem down into smaller parts, so it's more understandable to the student. Then we put it back together to see how those parts relate to the problem as a whole. Sometimes I will ask the student to extrapolate a little in order to anticipate a lesson or a theorem that is coming up. Once the student seems to und ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Literacy is the love of my life. I believe in instilling a love for learning in students. In this ever changing world where people switch careers throughout their lifetime, it is important to realize that we are lifetime learners. Learning never ends as such literacy is the source through which we acquire learning of all subject matters. It is important to pass along the love for reading and finding enjoyment and fulfillment from achieving learning goals. My goal for each student is to understand their strengths and weaknesses and meet them where they are. Becoming aware of the individual learning style of each student will help to target their own specific learning needs.

I received a B.S. Degree in Education with a teaching certificate in English-Communication, at the secondary level. I am also qualified to instruct younger children. My graduate work focused on elementary students.My experience with young children, was learning to identify reading disabilities, administering standardized reading tests, to assess the instructional and readiness levels of individual students. I have taught in a wide array of classroom settings and as a private tutor.
I strive to encourage open discussions, and small group activities so students can move around the room, but only as it relates to the task at hand. I enjoy watching their enthusiasm when I give a "fun" learning activity. I am pleasant, very patient and lively!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have struggle and work hard to achieve my goals and was always hungry for knowledge. I came to this country in search of a better future, but without hard work this was not possible. Because English was not my main language I learned from the roots, by writing and learning in extensive works of research. I have accomplished most of my dreams and I think that excellence is my motivation. I earned an AA in Education, a BA in Geography and currently I am working on my MA in Education of Earth Science concentration. For the last three years I have worked with students from K to 12 in all subjects areas. I think that additional to my tutoring experience I have acquired more experience working as a substitute teacher for the City of New York and New Jersey. In the last and current semester I have worked in several High Schools in New York City as a student teacher.
