I'm a very bright high school senior with a rigorous AP schedule at New Britain High. I don't have any tutoring experience but I've worked for two years at a christian summer camp, so I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. I've always had a talent for explaining material and making it fun, and I'm interested of pursuing a career in post secondary education.

Experience of 45 years I have been teaching spanish and guitar for over 40 years and I am very confident within my methods of teaching. I may not have a degree in spanish but with 55 years of experience with spanish I know what it takes to become successful within the language. You are capable of doing anything you put your mind to, and taking the time to understand spanish or guitar is definitely rewarding in so many levels. So if I am a vessel for you to become better with your goals, I will dedicate what I can to help. Also, if your tutoring is centered around homework helping with spanish and/or guitar and you would like to only be working on specific assignments, that is perfectly respectable and comprehension of the subject is what grades are based on so I am here to help.

I believe in order for success a student has to understand the basics in order to solve increasingly complicated problems in school. When tutoring I make sure that when a student is solving a problem they not only understand what they are doing but why they are doing it. I enjoy tutoring and helping others to understand something that may have given them problems. I am patient and easy going. I have tutored a wide range of students from middle school into college. When tutoring I strive to make I teach my students in ways that suite them best to help them remember the how and why to solving problems. I have earned my Liberal Arts & Science degree. I am attempting to get my bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering. Obtaining the degree has allowed me an understanding of cultures, concept and function of culture, and major developments in western civilization. I can read, write

A diverse education at Wesleyan University has prepared me to tutor many high school subjects. I earned my BA at Wesleyan in Music but I almost double majored in Environmental Science. The high expectations of professors at Wesleyan pushed me to greatly improve my writing ability, with my music thesis earning me honors in music. Environmental sciences sharpened my science and mathematic ability. Extensive courses in music prepared me to tutor music students in any background or concentration. I greatly enjoy finding a way to inspire a child to understand the problem at hand. Through from my experience in grade school and my observation of students that attend tough schools I've realized the monotonous class schedule and disciplinary philosophy of most schools deflates most student's desire to succeed. While I can relate to this rebellious reaction I also know that it is no excuse f

I enjoy teaching children, students of all ages and those willing to learn. As a high school student, I was involved in inner city teaching and I helped hartford students in their studies after their school.

I have a passion for children, I strongly believe in educating the younger generation due to the fact that they are the future. My philosophy is every child can be academically successful; however, one needs to know and understand their ways of learning. I am easy going, patient and friendly in fact; many consider me as an older version of a child. My objective make is to make sure that my students are a success. I have earned an associate degree in Criminal Justice/ Forensics science, at NVCC as well as my certificate in the legal program at Training Direct.

I am currently self-employed as a computer software trainer. My practice includes clients as well as groups. As part of my work, I'm currently an adjunct professor at 2 local community colleges. I'm also a Sunday school teacher at my local congregation. I've been doing this for many years. My classes over the years have ranged from K-6th grade. I thoroughly enjoy it and it's fair to say I get more than I give. Finally, I also teach adult ed as part of my business. My catalog includes not only computer courses but also piano, voice, guitar, and songwriting, as well as any other courses that I feel confident in teaching. I'm also a musician and believe in music, where possible, as part of my teaching philosophy. People who've seen me teach describe me as relaxed, focused, and funny. For better or worse (I like to think better), I believe in age appropriate humor as part of an overall t

My teaching style is hands on. I like to teach though demonstration, and if the students still struggle with the concept, I will break it down and show them step by step the proper technique to master the given material. I will start with the basics and build up. I can also take what the student already knows and build upon their existing knowledge. After I have taught them the material, I will help them put it into practice to truly demonstrate that they understand and completely grasp the subject matter. I have been a musician for 6 years, playing in a variety of bands at different venues. I have formally studied music for the past few years and excelled in the subject. I have taken multiple theory classes and passed each with grades much higher then average. My main instruments of focus are acoustic/electric guitar and bass. I play all different genres of music, ranging from classic

While living in San Antonio, Texas, I served my students as an adjunct instructor of American History at St. Mary’s University and San Antonio College. In 2006 I began facilitating courses online for Axia College of University of Phoenix and Excelsior College. While at Axia I instructed several different writing courses including Effective Persuasive Writing, Effective Essay Writing, Research Writing, and Written Communication. I can say with confidence that students at all of the institutions that I’ve had the privilege of working for benefitted from my knowledge and experience, and that same level of professionalism will be brought to yourself or your child. From my many years of experience I have learned that the most important aspect of teaching style is to stay in contact with each student. Educational psychologists have demonstrated that students of all ages have an inherent need

I love teaching Guitar to all ages, but especially enjoy working with the children and beginning students, who can learn the theory and technique necessary to become excellent Musicians. The ability to gain and maintain a fun, learning environment, will make the student want to learn more and more each lesson! I have taught many students who became teachers and professional Musicians, enjoying successful careers of their own. I achieved a BA with the intent to teach in the Public School System, however, I soon found myself earning a living as a Musician playing with some top acts. I spent 10 years traveling the US, Puerto Rico, Antigua, Cuba, and Panama with the USO. I have learned varied musical styles and vocal techniques during this time. After returning from the "road" I opened my own Music Store, named Guitar Heaven, and continued to teach and repair Guitars and other Stringed

I am warm, engaging and fun--I award stickers and other incentives for learning and achievement goals and I work closely with children and adults AT THEIR LEVEL to bring them to excel in the subjects that they are studying. I sometimes cross-reference different subjects to give a multi-dimensional approach to learning. I make an effort to honor the individuality of the child or adult learning, and aim to make a significant contribution to his or her academic or artistic development. I've taught both piano and other school subjects as a one-to-one instructor in a sub-contractor fashion, for over 20 years, and I taught General Music in public school K-4, in 2002. As both an undergraduate and Graduate, analyzing and writing about 19th Century literature and poetry, Women's studies,Art and Music history, and comparative literature and music, I have developed analytical, critical and writing
