High School Sociology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Blairstown, NJ

After 18 years in the pharmaceutical and medical fields I have set my sights to earning my teaching certification. I am a father of three, a Volunteer Fire Fighter and self described science buff. I am looking to tutor to help students to fine their love of science and also to help them build the study skills that will help to make school easier and improve grades. I use a very interactive teaching style which encourages students to think out a problem and to understand it in a way that makes most sense to them. I use analogies to make more complex concepts more accessible to the student, and as a way to help them to learn and understand the concepts.

As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics. I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor.

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 workforce, the military, or college, and how to successfully embark on their post-school life. 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 a real passion for teaching, and tutoring allows me to have a strong connection with children and a better understanding of their learning preferences so that I may help them reach their goals. I am a life long learner and am enthusiastic about my subject matter. My students learn to share my enthusiasm for the material, and learn more productively as a result. I believe that in being patient, thoughtful and knowledgeable, students respond well to me and my teaching style. I bring an interdisciplinary approach to the material and am a proponent of the “Writing as Thinking” methodology as a way to teach effective writing. Great teachers can make a positive difference in a child's life and that is my ultimate goal as a tutor. I would be a strong asset as a tutor given my 14 years of experience in the business world, including launching a successful start-up as an entrepreneur.
