Praxis Exam Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bel Air, MD

My bachelors is in Elementary Education, but my experiences are in middle school. I started my teaching experience in Salisbury Maryland where I did all of my student teaching. The two sixth grade classrooms that I engaged in were totally different from each other; different demographics, different backgrounds, different school cultures, and the list could go on. Each school however did share one thing in common; the ability to throw curve balls at you at every turn and neither schools fell short of an eventful day. I had tremendous mentors and I was awarded Maryland Teacher of Promise in 2017. For the past two years, I have been in charge of my own classroom of seventh graders. I have learned a lot from them and most importantly, I continue to learn every day from my students. I believe that the success of the student relies in one thing; and that thing is TRUST. If the student trusts i

I think that all students are unique, learning in different styles and at different paces. As a tutor, it is important to tailor instruction to meet the needs of each individual student. All students have the ability to learn, bringing their own struggles and successes to the table. As a graduate of an Ivy League institution, I was able to earn an excellent liberal arts education, earning a Bachelor degree in Spanish and in Urban Studies. Throughout college, I tutored Math, Writing, and Spanish. In addition, I have concrete teaching experience. I taught Spanish part-time for .5 years to second grade students, and I taught full-time for one year in the Baltimore City School System. I attended Johns Hopkins for 1 year, and have completed part of the MAT program in teaching Spanish.

I love working with all children. I believe that every child has the potential to learn and I try very hard to find out what works for the individual learner. I am patient, easy-going, but I expect my students to set goals and put forth the effort required to meet them. I tend to take a constructivist approach to learning and like to draw on my students prior knowledge and experiences as well as their interests. I believe that I can make a difference in a child's life and I enjoy helping children establish a love for learning. I am currently enrolled in a Post-Baccalaureate Teaching Certification program at Kutztown University for Secondary Education English and the Masters of Education program for Curriculum and Instruction. I have a 4.0 GPA in my Graduate program and have volunteered in K-5 elementary classrooms over the past three years. I am experienced in writing research papers in

As an undergraduate at Muhlenberg College, I had the opportunity to serve as a peer tutor in mathematics to incoming freshmen. I enjoyed the experience of helping other students succeed. I have a bachelor's degree in Physical Science which allowed me to gain knowledge in the fields of mathematics and physics. I decided to further my education in the field of Applied Mathematics. I tutored for one full year as a teacher's assistant at Delaware State University. I had the opportunity to tutor students on a one-on-one basis and as a whole class. This was a positive experience because I got to see the student's growth throughout the semester. After having the opportunity to tutor one-on-one and as a whole class, I have discovered that each student learns in a unique way. Some of the students were visual learners, while others needed more tactile experiences. Other students benefited f

I recognize that each child brings a certain type of diversity to their learning environment. This diversity ranges from their background knowledge, to their life experiences and ultimately their learning styles. After I create a learning style profile, I begin to create and implement strategies that will help students acquire and retain the skills that are necessary for them to master the subject area. I am very patient, organized and efficient because I pride myself on constantly improving my ability to meet the needs of all children. I live by Aristotle's quote: "Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well." Aristotle As a graduate of The Ohio State University, I had a passion for closing the achievement gap that exists between minority students and their counterparts. Therefore,I ch

I believe that all children learn differently, so an effective teacher must adapt the message to reach all students In a class. In my classroom I teach using lessons that incorporate VATK (visual, auditory, tactile-kinesthetic)methods to teach the way my diverse students learn. For reading and mathematics test preparation, the methods used at my school have 100% of our students scoring proficient or above grade level on PSSA tests. Lessons should be organized, interesting, and should include a clear goal, and plan for achieving the goal. I also believe that students can achieve more when parents and teachers communicate regularly and when informed learned is reinforced at home on a regular basis. I received a Bachelor's degree from West Chester University in 2004, then continued my education at Delaware Valley College where I completed a teaching certification program. Along with

I believe that teaching should be as student-centered as possible. This means primarily two things. First, it means students should be as active in their education as possible. I see myself as a guide, who will teach students the skills they need to discover knowledge in the future, rather than as a provider of knowledge. Second, it means that I always take students interests, learning profiles, and abilities into account when planning lessons or tutoring sessions. More generally, I am a teacher who is extremely organized but also very creative with my lesson plans. Through making lessons interactive and interesting, I've found that students get engaged in the material and learn more effectively. I have taught college writing and literature at the University of Maryland for the last two years while completing my M.A. in English Language and Literature, and I will continue to teach writin

I believe that each student brings something different to the classroom. In my classroom, I want to foster the students' ideas and thoughts. I want the students to have a sense of pride in their thoughts. I am aware that students have different learning styles, so I am capable of altering my own style to make sure each student grasps the concepts that I want them to learn. During my undergraduate career, I student taught ninth grade English at Glasgow High School. I taught five 9CP courses and 1 SAT Prep course. So I have experience working with students and I am very skilled in teaching English Language Arts concepts.

I firmly believe in affirming the gifts/talents in each child that I come in contact with. I believe that by working hard and being creative that I can inspire your child to achieve his/her goals. I am assertive, creative and encouraging. My number one goal is to get to know who I am working with and focus on their strengths. As a graduate student at Immaculata University, I have learned what it means to be an effective teacher. I will be student-teaching 11th and 12th grade English at Renaissance Academy in the fall. I have also been hired as the head men's golf coach at Valley Forge Christian College and have worked with kids of all ages at my church for the past 3 years. Additionally, I have worked as a band coach at the Rock & Roll After School in Phoenixville.
