I received my B.S degree The Pennsylvania State University and my Masters Elementary Education from the University of Phoenix. I have always known that I wanted to become a teacher. I believe educating our future, our children, is one of the most important jobs anyone could have. I love being in the classroom and interacting with the children. After graduation I taught Pre-K after graduation and soon realized I wanted to go back to school for my masters in education. I am substitute teacher which has been a great learning experience for me. I also have worked at a Sylvan Learning Center and as a TSS with children with special needs. My beliefs about teaching are to educate and challenge students to become skillful communicators, independent thinkers, and life-long learners. I believe every child has a different learning style. Learning should occur in a safe, supportive, and stimu

As a professional educator, my passion and purpose is to share my love of learning and history with students. I have a BA in European History and I have been teaching American, European and World history to high school students for the past three years. I am committed to helping students become independent learners. In my classroom I emphasize critical thinking while building writing and research skills. I have tutored students in essay writing, reading comprehension, and vocabulary in addition to history. The most important thing I do as a teacher is to provide my students with the tools they need to be confident in their skills and abilities both in and out of the classroom. I have worked with students from a wide variety of backgrounds, learning styles, and abilities and have a track record of successfully motivating even the most unenthusiastic students. My goal is to help students d

My teaching style is to encourage students to do their best at all times by setting high expectations for them. I use my soft-spoken, easy going, and focused mannerism to provide the best level of instruction. Students are encouraged to become independent thinkers in problem solving and in discovery of the study habits that will help them to succeed in their academic careers. As a dedicated and certified educator, I have taken and successfully passed the PRAXIS exam the first time that I took it. I also completed an extensive training program for NJ Alternate Route Teachers. I have spent 7 years working in public education with children and 3 years as a teacher librarian in a primary school and 2 years as a technology teacher in a elementary school.

I thoroughly enjoy teaching teenagers and young adults technical material. It is very rewarding to see those efforts translate into a successful performance on standardize tests, and to be followed up by a letter of recommendation to a good school. I believe that I can play an important role in convincing these students that they can perform well and be successful, if they are willing to do their part and invest the time and energy into their studies. My professional experience spans a variety of professional environments, including academia, the private business sector, and mostly recently the public education sector: 1.) 9/2005=>current: 3 years teaching AP/Honors chemistry at Pequannock Township High School Milestones: a.) tenured 3/25/2008 b.)

I believe that effective communication and a supportive environment is crucial to a good teaching/learning relationship. I don't mind questions, in fact I encourage them at any time! I see learning as a 2-way street. It is the students responsibility to stop me immediately and ask questions if he/she does not understand. It is my responsibility, in response, to answer those questions and find a new way of explaining the problem so he/she does understand it. I believe a student should be able to "talk" mathematics as well as "write" it. My philosophy regarding math is as follows: it is a fantastic way of looking at the world and also improves necessary critical thinking skills in a student. I hold both a BA in Mathematics and an MS in Statistics from Rutgers Univeristy. I have sucessfully tutored 36+ students since 1991. I also have broad technical writing experience from completing re

In my past experiences, personal and professional, I have grown to appreciate every child's abilities. Although I am much older than the children I have taught, and I have the knowledge from extensive education, there are still many things I can learn from children. I have let my students feel that they are in a safe learning environment and that their contributions are greatly appreciated. I have had great success in passing knowledge on to my students. When it comes to teaching, I strive to be the best teacher that I can be. Being a mediocre teacher is not at all an option, and my open-mindedness allows me to acquire help from any resource (whether a teacher or a book) to perfect my strategies. To address a wide range of skills and abilities in my classroom, I would try to be as prepared as possible. I would prepare materials for students who are at a higher learning level so tha

I am adept at implementing pedagogical methods, particularly in the area of cooperative learning techniques. As a high school English teacher, I utilized such skills to help disadvantaged students and 80 percent of them passed the New York State Regents exam. In an era where principles oftentimes take a back seat to personal interests, I pride myself on maintaining a high degree of integrity and leading by example. Writing and teaching are my passion and the students benefit consequently. I am an experienced writer, having authored three novels, two of which have been published, and one screenplay. Moreover, I published an electronic newsletter. In addition, I worked in a tutorial program for four years at Medgar Evers College of CUNY, one year at the College of New Rochelle, School of New Resources, and two and a half years as an English teacher at Paul Robeson High School.

I am willing to go above and beyond to help a student achieve success. As a teacher and tutor, there is nothing more satisfying as when the “light bulb” finally goes off for the student. I believe my enthusiasm for teaching and learning works in my favor. I think that excitement is contagious and when a few students get excited about learning, more will follow. Especially if they see how the content relates to their individual lives. It is my job to demonstrate this to them. The student comes first in my mind. I have experience teaching to many different types of learning levels. It is important to teach in a way that will make sense to the student. With some guidance and hard work, success is just around the corner. I am a graduate of Marywood University 2010 with a degree in Mathematics/Secondary Education. For two years I participated in an Academic Excellence program at
