A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with those that want to learn and may be struggling or are trying to complete their tasks to be able to move forward. I am always looking for creative new ways to teach to all learning styles and to make learning fun and practical. I have worked with the disabled and elderly for years along with children so I have vast experience with different age groups. I am very friendly and approachable and an excellent researcher and networker so I if I don't know a way to solve a request I know how to find someone or someway to complete the task. I find all small steps as important as the large accomplishments.
As a social worker and advocate for many years I have always used my skills as an instructor and mentor. Most recently I completed my Master's in Teaching and State of Connecticut Elementary education certification which has allowed me to pursue employ ... read more

As a wildlife biologist for 15 years, I spent a good portion of my career giving presentations to a wide variety of audiences and educating people one-on-one about environmental issues.

Because of my education and career, I am knowledgeable in many math subjects, biology, physical science, grammar, reading, and botany.
Every child has his/her own learning style. I think it is important to first determine how each child best learns – either visual, auditory, or tactile. I can then tailor my instruction to the needs of each student. In general, I believe that people learn best by ‘doing’. I believe th ... read more

I feel children are very self-aware and are very vulnerable to positive and negative feedback. Therefore, no matter how little progress is made, praise them. If no progerss is made or if an issue needs to re-addressed, praise them..."That was great, but let's try it this way!" I feel that you are positive, smiling, and they believe that you believe in them, 9 out of 10 kids will follow you!
I was more of an instructor than a teacher. I was a day camp counselor at Solway House parent/child resort in Saugerties N.Y. I instructed kids how to swim, dive, play various sports and gave dancing lessons to the guests. As a high school student I tutored 7th and 8th graders in an after school community center. I was one of a few staff at the University of Connecticut to instruct graduates and staff in the use of the various electronic facilites available to them.

I enjoy identifying and using a broad range of materials that facilitate the learning of the students that I teach. I am familiar with many of the texts used to teach Spanish and English as a Second Language. When I first meet a student, I like to find out what materials s/he is being taught with and the subject areas that the student is weak in or is struggling with. Then, I think about how much time the student and I will have together to strengthen the student’s knowledge so that s/he will successfully bring his/her grades up in the subject areas identified. After that, I create a plan with the student that focuses on the work that I as a tutor and s/he as the student need to do so that our time together is productive and valuable.

I understand that finding the right tutor can be confusing and time consuming. My specialty is to offer a customized experience to each student. I recently graduated 'Summa Cum Laude' from Eastern CT State University with a BS in Business Administration. My primary experiences has been in with high school and college students tutoring in more difficult subjects such as, Chemistry, Statistics, Physics, Geometry, Calculus, etc. However, I have worked with students of all ages.
My experiences have taught me that a cookie-cutter teaching style is not suitable for every individual. My responsibility is to quickly identify the students weaknesses and turn them into their STRENGTH! I am a every interactive teacher. It is my strong belief that anyone can succeed with the proper motivation, reinforcement and tools. My tutoring style emphasizes the student as an active participan ... read more

I am a recent graduate of Eastern Connecticut State University with a BA in History and Social Sciences and a total GPA of 3.57. This plan of study exposed me to a wide variety of courses aside from history including psychology, English, computer skills, and sociology. Additionally, I have worked for more than 2.5 years as a teacher's aide. I began at LEARN and I currently work for Waterford Public Schools. My most recent position was in the high school; however, this next school year I will be located at Clark Lane Middle School.
I believe that children have different learning styles but they all benefit from positive encouragement from their teachers. I am patient and easy going and I enjoy helping a student reach their fullest potential. It is rewarding for both myself and the child and I feel such positive interactions can make a difference in their learning experience.

I have always felt the need and want to help others, whether educationally or socially. As an immigrant who had to learn a new educational system, language, and lifestyle, I know first-hand how difficult a true and successful learning process can be. I believe that my strong communication skills and a patient persona are critical in helping someone achieve educational success. In recognizing each child's individual skills and abilities, I only hope to help them recognize their own strengths and weaknesses to achieve improvement.
My love for reading and writing from a young age followed me through high school and college. By excelling in various courses, I had the opportunity to tutor a myriad of subjects in high school (particularly Science and Writing), and serve as a Writing Consultant at Bryant University since Freshman year.

I am a highly dedicated tutor who enjoys working directly with students and seeing them succeed. I am a firm believer that many students benefit from an individualized tutor because he or she provides an active and collaborative learning relationship. For many students, this type of relationship and level of interaction makes the learning experience much more meaningful. I strive to help students learn by keeping them engaged in our sessions and challenging them to think critically about the subject matter, rather than by simply providing answers. I believe self-determination is an important skill for any student, and encourage them to lead tutoring sessions while voicing their ideas, concerns and levels of understanding as needed. When necessary, I try to help students learn more about their own learning style, and emphasize strategies for reading, studying, problem solving, and or ... read more

Training as a Basic/ESL tutor,I gained ability to handle learning “crisis”, and developed a teaching style beginning with an assessment. Including phonetics of word composition from lessons from ESL workbooks,and my education, allowed instruction on vowel and consonant blends. I drafted a guide containing examples and sentence structure. A list of vowels/consonant blends with samples indicates pronounciation. Studying Acronyms proved beneficial. Student states: “I enjoy reading now; I understand”; proves starting off at a level to determine students's strengths/weaknesses provided building blocks to success. Student reads a chapter a session; creating a list of words improves vocabulary.

Since my parents were both teachers,to be a math teacher is my dream all the time. Although I have earned one bachelor degree in accounting, I still hope I can be an excellent teacher someday.

I am patient, easy going, and considerate. Just give me three months, I am available to help your child find academic success.
When I was a high school kid, I finished the highest math class during grade 11. Since I was so good at mathematics, my teachers suggested me to tutor my classmates in math and science. Later, my study in the University of Connecticut has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science, especially mathematics. During my college life I have also tutored students in mathematics, and physi ... read more
