I worked as an in home private ABA therapist for two separate families, each with a child with autism. I worked individually with both children approximately 8-12 hours per week for over a year. I taught in a traditional ABA classroom with six students on the autism spectrum and all with other severe disabilities. I have also volunteered for many years as a bible school teacher.
I would have to say that my teaching style is flexibility. I believe that it is necessary to gauge your students as a group and individually before deciding on which teaching methods would be most effective. I believe that naturalistic teaching is important. I also believe in a form of discrete trial training. It takes some of the basics from Discrete Trial and adapts them to fit the needs of the students that are struggling with certain subjects. Research has proven that all students learn differently a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have experience teaching in a group setting and one-on-one. I am very comfortable presenting and have done so both in a training and non-training environment. My minor in communications was mostly presentations, and therefore I am very comfortable speaking in front of a group of people. I try to be as interactive as possible. I believe that hands-on experience is the best way to learn an application.
I have extensive experience training students on computer applications. My first experience was in 1993 while attending college up in Albany. I trained users on MS Office after they converted from DOS based applications to Windows based applications. I also consulted in the user room at SUNY Albany. Over the years I have trained professionals on HR Systems applications, and also have trained some professionals on Word, Excel, and PowerPoint applications.

A Little Bit About Me...

Start and end the session with a theme and establish rapport. I believe teaching is an art to achieve positive and enjoyable results. I consider my students as peers and try to entertain the teaching with humorous analogies/metaphors. I try to humanize while explaining the meanings to be aware of practical use. I avoid spoon feeding and try to get the answers from the student itself. Eventually, the students is satisfied with their own individual achievement.
The first time I tutored school kids was when I finished high school (India). Later I taught my kids while they went to school. I co-ordinated a summer camp for kids, conducted elocution contest and trained them to write speeches and public speaking skills (Kuwait). The last time I tutored were college students in English in 2007 (California). I was a mentor and Vice-President Education(Toastmasters club, Kuwait). Lesson ... read more

I have a M.S.in Education. I am certified to teach elementary education Pre-K–6 and Business and Distributive Education K-12. I created many math games with playing cards and dice. My students created board games with mathematical equations. To increase fluency, I brought in leveled books on tape for children to read. Students accessed the internet and CD ROMS to reinforce social studies and science topics. I encouraged students to use interactive technological resources to also help increase their mathematics, fluency, and comprehension skills. I created mathematics, reading, and writing rubrics to assess student knowledge. To increase student achievement, I developed and taught an after school program.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am patient and approachable but insist on the value of completing assignments even if the student "hates" them. I am good at explaining how this will be important later, which turns around reluctant learners. I believe in explaining, showing, modelling, and then stepping back while the student tries, explains, and determines where the mistakes come up. I value resiliance, and bask in the joy of competence achieved through effort.
I went from the Boston Public Schools to Commonwealth School and then Wellesley College, and would have been lost, early on, without help from tutors. I majored in English and Russian and work with several communities for whom English is not their first language. I am also a freelance writer and editor and I help my children's friends with their college essays. I work as a substitute teacher with all levels and grades and teach everything but Science and ... read more

As a graduate of a liberal arts college and a graduate program of a Jesuit university, I am a strong supporter of the process of learning and how to optimize that proces for each individual. I have earned one bachelor degree, a BA in Business Policy, a major I petitioned and was granted pernmission to design by officials at Hartwick College. After Hartwick and prior to entering Georgetown, I worked for an administrative division of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in several capacities, each of which required writing statements about complex policies and outstanding issues, many of which statements were distributed to to the Governor's and Speaker's offices, as well as published in The Boston Globe and Boston Herald.

I really enjoy teaching because I enjoy seeing the progress with people as they excel in something they thought they would never be able to do. I like working with children because I can make learning fun and interesting to them. I have a lot of experience working with younger children in elementary school all the way up to young adolescents in high school. I have also been a mentor to freshmen in college. My teaching style is very eclectic. I understand that all people learn differently, and I am very open to adapting to the style that works best for them. Ultimately my main goal is to see people succeed and feel good about them selves. Teaching and tutoring comes very natural to me, because I have a lot of patients, and enjoy problem solving with a variety of people.
I am a recent college graduate who is very focused and motivated. I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology an ... read more

I believe that it is most important to create a learning environment that allows a student to feel successful every step of the way. Many years ago, as a Juvenile Probation Officer I discovered that there are three key ingredients to working with young people: trust, sensitivity and encouragement. Beyond the goal of mastering course materials, I would strive to instill in the student that I tutor, that he or she is worthy and capable. It’s very much a balancing act: A student should know that I am approachable, friendly and interested, but at the same time establishing and maintaining the proper boundaries between student and teacher.
My undergraduate degree in English and a Juris Doctor degree was a foundation for my career in writing, editing and research in the financial communications field. I have learned about the importance of clarity, detail and accuracy in writing. As an ... read more
