All Politics is Local

Socratic
The Thrill of the Teacher teaching his material is his repetition in the work, further gaining mastery over what he is covering. Often times its the student who is teaching more to the teacher, than the teacher could ever teach to all his students. With that experience, however comes greater opportunities along the way.

My comments on tutoring Geography : For three summers, I taught geography to gifted middle school students for Johns Hopkins.

This is my fourth year tutoring middle and high school students in History and Government. I also have professional classroom teaching experience and volunteer elementary school teaching experience. My students, primarily Global History, World History and European History students, have raised their class grades, passed the Regents exam by many points and earned high scores on the AP. I specialize in both content acquisition and essay writing skills. Some students have worked with me for half a year or more, others for a month or two before cumulative exams.
Students being tutored one-on-one deserve lessons customized to their learning style. My sessions often incorporate some writing and topic discussion along with activities tailored to the student's interests, skill development needs and preferences.

Teaching and School Counseling Services In One Place!

I have been a teacher for the last fifteen years. I teach social studies, but my specialization is teaching argumentative (college level) writing.I have done plenty of SAT prep and tutoring for students at the high school and college level. I am also a school counselor and can offer a vast array of services including FASFA, Naviance/Common Application and college/career counseling.
My style of education is to teach by modeling. Students need to see things in a step-by-step format with instructions, followed by an immediate example. I also provide sample argumentative essays for students who learn by seeing a complete model. My counseling style is to work with students, first by building a rapport and then using that as the foundation to get a feel for their college/career interests. I then look at their grades to help them build a custom transitional plan into early adulthood.

I am not a teacher; I am an awakener!

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences.
I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged.

A Little Bit About Me...

I take great pride in helping children succeed at school. As a recent graduate of college, I know how hard school can be at times. I recognize that all children learn in different ways, and because of this, I am very flexible and patient in my teaching. I believe that all children are capable if given the right environment to work in, and as a result, I work extremely hard to create ideal learning conditions for each student.
I recently graduated Magna Cum Laude from Bryant University where I earned two bachelor degrees in Business Management as well as History. My Business degree taught me the importance of working with others in a team environment while my History degree taught me how to research and write analytically. In my spare time at college, I tutored elementary and middle school students in mathematics.

I have continued tutoring students in Bridgeport, CT under the SES program. I also work for Fairfield University as a Supervisor of student teachers.

I love working with children in an educational setting, preferably with small groups. I believe that humor and positive feedback are key in helping students to achieve success. I also believe that is is as important to listen to children, as it is for them to listen to the teacher. It is by getting to know the student that a teacher is able to determine the specific needs and learning style. I am a very hard worker and will ... read more
