I am a highly educated, richly experienced, energetic tutor.

When helping a child, I show interest in the child and the child's immediate situation. I express warmth, responsiveness and appreciation. I nicely encourage a child for a given activity or one that I create. I am always upbeat, positive, and enthusiastic In the educational process, I form an idea of what the student is ready to learn, and form an idea of a learning task (discussion or practice) and of how I might introduce it. I am open to suggestions from the learner for this (or at any moment). Learning should be enjoyable.If a task proves not to be intrinsically stimulating, I present accomplishing it as a challenge. I praise efforts and seek to minimize frustration--I have a technique for this, to be used when necessary. Finally, the majority of time during any session is time during which the student is learning, with a minimum of my instructing.

American History is one of my top subjects!

Patience is a true virtue! When teaching children, patience has to be presence. I have learned through my experience, a calm environment with a patience and observant teacher who is willing to try to understand how the child learns, goes a long way because all children are not the same; therefore, they do not learn in the same manner.
Hello All, I am currently a 3rd grade teacher in a ICT classroom in Brooklyn,NY. I truly enjoy educating children and helping them develop a greater understanding of different concepts. I am into my 4th year of teaching. I am highly dedicated and motivated teacher who is willingly to go above and beyond to help children succeed.

Environmental Journalist to help with reading and writing

I am an environmental reporter based in New York. My articles have appeared in New Scientist, Scientific American, Psychology Today, Popular Science, OnEarth Magazine and Smart Planet. I was also a copy editor with a large publishing house for two years where I used my spelling and grammar skills to fact check and proof read manuscripts. I love to travel and learn about people and the world and spent two years living in Paris, France where I was an English tutor to French children and adults. I also co-host a podcast about fairy tales called Tabled Fables. Each month we discuss a different tale to find out what the story means, how it's evolved and what makes it stick.
I like to help people learn about English by exploring their interests. For example, if you are a fan of economics we can read The Economist and discuss world politics. If you prefer to talk about animals we can crea ... read more

Assistant Teacher; Dedicated and Supportive Tutor

Throughout my undergraduate career, I have tutored fellow students in my major, designing tools to help them succeed on exams and assignments. In addition, students taking various courses have asked me to edit their papers and guide their studying. Outside the realm of college, I have previously been an assistant teacher for early intervention and preschool children. I am currently an assistant teacher for elementary school students. I enjoy working with people, and I enjoy using my strong academic abilities to help others succeed in school. I consider myself a friendly and down-to-earth person, eager to give over my positivity, dedication and support to those that I work with. I look forward to giving over these ideals to my future students.

My comments on tutoring American History : My teacher training focused on U.S./American History. I have tutored middle school students, Regents students and AP students in U.S. History.

Students being tutored one-on-one deserve lessons customized to their learning style. My sessions often incorporate some writing and topic discussion along with activities tailored to the student's interests, skill development needs and preferences.
This is my fourth year tutoring middle and high school students in History and Government. I also have professional classroom teaching experience and volunteer elementary school teaching experience. My students, primarily Global History, World History and European History students, have raised their class grades, passed the Regents exam by many points and earned high scores on the AP. I specialize in both content acquisition and essay writing skills. Some students have worked with me for half a year or more, others for a month or two before cumulative exams.

I prefer a "hands on" style of tutoring. I like to engage and motivate my students to bring out the best in them.
Armed with a Masters in Business Administration, Finance, you will find an experienced tutor who know his trade. For the last 20 years, I have taught students from all walks of life.

Versatile Tutor

My teaching style is relaxed and unfaiilingly patient. We all were slow at learning something at one time or another. i ask qualifying questoins to find out how much the student knows about a topic. Then if I am solving a homework queestion I try to engage the student in their own learning as much as possible.
I have taught all levels of math K-12 and college level courses such as linear algebra and multivariable calculus for 15 years for Brainfuse. I tutored Statistics and Chemistry for 5 years for Tutor.com and was awarded the 5 year badge of longevity and awarded master tutor status- the highest level attainable for a tutor.

All Politics is Local

The Thrill of the Teacher teaching his material is his repetition in the work, further gaining mastery over what he is covering. Often times its the student who is teaching more to the teacher, than the teacher could ever teach to all his students. With that experience, however comes greater opportunities along the way.
