Have experience in all subjects listed as I have completed these courses myself; as a communications major I've worked in public relations and media though I have extensive freelance writing experience.

I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanities are not difficult. Actually, while my education has been primarily in the Humanities, the material I see the most in tutoring is Algebra and Geometry! I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts

As a later graduate (36 years young), I consider myself to be driven, goal-oriented, and motivated. I have worn a lot of hats throughout my career and I have trained or taught many people across all age groups. I've earned my BA in History and am currently working on my MA in American History. With my experience and knowledge, I would be able to help you with your academic needs. I love teaching and all aspects of teaching. I believe we are all capable of learning our required material, that every one of us just learns in different ways and at a different pace. I am energetic, encouraging, patient, and considerate. I want to see people succeed and I am here for anyone that needs help. I like to use traditional and non-traditional methods until I can figure out the best way the child is going to learn. I want to make an impact in our children's lives to show them learning can be fun, and

I tutored throughout school and was a teachers aid in Elementary school. I have 2 young boys of my own who will beginning school next year. I have tutored in writing, K-5 math, science and history. I also have tutored in Music including theory and playing. (Piano, Oboe, English horn, Trumpet, drums, guitar and a few other instruments) I really do not have a teaching style yet. A one on one setting is what I am used to. I am open to different teaching techniques depending on the help the child requires. The interne

I understand that all children learn differently and I am able to adapt my teaching style to fit the child. I am both patient and positive and I like to give the student confidence. My goal is to not only help the child learn, but to also give them a sense of confidence. It is important that each student believe in his or herself as well as their capabilities. I have been working with children for several years. I started by teaching dance at a local dance studio while I was in high school. It was from this experience that I chose to go to college to become a teacher. I have a degree in Elementary Education and am ESOL certified. I have experience as a substitute teacher and have worked with both elementary and middle school students.

I am committed to helping each person reach his or her highest and greatest potential. My goal is to provide each student with an educational environment conducive for a successful learning experience. The tutor must establish the learning setting by creating parameters for the emotional, physical, and mental safety of each student. Specifically, this means the physical location must be without distracters, while the learning content is perceived as helpful, fun, exciting, relevant, and beneficial. The demeanor of the instructor must be serious while being neither stern nor judgmental. Over the years, I have consistently maintained both high moral values and excellent academic standards. While earning my two BA Degrees, I served both as a tutor and substitute teacher in several elementary schools. My second BA Degree was earned from Warner University in the elementary education majo

During my 13 years of working experience at the Employment Office in Lowell, Massachusetts in conjunction with a year of working experience at CTI YouthBuild, also in Lowell, Massachusetts, I was able to provide extensive classroom training to public assistance customers and also to young adults in many different areas; to help enhance their skills in the work force field. I provided these customers with 27 different workshops in a classroom setting. I enjoy very much teaching anyone that is eager to learn. I am able to seek information an all resources necessary to provide your child with the best education possible. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn, in many different ways, depending on each individual skill. I also believe that education is the most important tool that anyone can have in their life and that educators are the main resource for making the difference in

Working with children and young adults is my passion. My dedication for being an educator has developed tremendously these past few years. I like to be able to help children overcome the obstacles they face to help them become better students. I am very patient and personable with children and when I am tutoring a child, I try to ensure I meet the needs of each particular child's learning style. I recently graduated from the University of Florida with my Bachelors Degree in Health Education and Behavior. I am currently working on my Masters Degree at the University of South Florida in Physical Education and Exercise Science. I am also substituting for the Polk County School System. I have held private tutoring sessions for the past 2 years with elementary and middle school aged children in the subjects of science and reading.

In early 2006 I decided to give back to the community and entered the teaching profession in the public sector. In 2009 I became a Professionally Certified Teacher who takes responsibility for establishing a positive classroom climate and recognizes the importance of peer relationships in establishing a climate of learning. I became a mature, seasoned professional who exhibits behaviors that show a commitment to planning, reflection, assessment, and learning as an on-going process, who displays thoughtful, effective verbal and nonverbal communication and responsive listening, and who respects the teaching profession by maintaining a professional demeanor in dress, punctuality and speech. My efforts have resulted in three achievements that continue to directly benefit my students. (1) I maintained classroom decorum by assigning classroom positions of responsibility. (2) I introduced a

My Style from the beginning is to involve the parents and the student in the work ahead.I cover all the material in depth and offer counselling on study methods and give extra tables and information to be used during the instructions. As we progress I change the methodology (if necessary)to help the student feel more comfortable and confident in what he is learning.I am patient and a low key teacher. My only goal is the pursuit of knowledge for both the student and myself. If the teacher is not learning from his students then he is not growing and therefore will not be able to help this student or any others in the future. My education: I graduated Suffolk University with a BS in Chemistry and Minors in Math and Biology and an MS in Plastics Engineering From U Mass Lowell.I also took 4 courses at the Premier Optical Microscopy School, McCrones in Chicago.

My teaching style is "one-on-one" for the most part. My first instinct with tutoring is empathetic: if I were struggling in this particular subject, what would be the best way for me to understand it? If this method proves ineffective, I would choose a different technique. I am a visual learner so I often teach visually. I feel it is my job to inspire a student to want to love learning in the most effective manner of doing so. I graduated with a BS in theology because I felt it was interesting as much as it was challenging! A reason for this is because I've always helped youth in a para-ministry setting (volunteer/paid) and found a knowledge of Theology helped a great deal. I worked for a non-profit organization off and on for a total of close to 4 years. For approx 3 of those 4 years, I worked in a private school setting with Jr. high and Sr. high students.
