I have just completed a Master's Program in the Arts of Teaching at Sacred Heart University. I completed 10 weeks of student teaching where I took on all the responsibilities of a full time 7th grade English teacher. Throughout all of high school and college I worked with children ages 3-15 and taught them how to swim in a Massachusetts accredited program in my hometown. Here, I was responsible for creating lessons and implementing them everyday in a 2-month summer program. In college, I was a Staff Editor and writer for our Newspaper. Here, I ran an entire section and was responsible for working with my wroters and tecahing them how to write an effective Perspectives article. I also had my own article entitled, "Amy Says."
I am an excited, passionate, and creative teacher who focuses on unique ways of displaying information. I like to teach content thoroughly but also with a hi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Being a mother of three adult children and a new grandmother, I adore children. Teaching Sunday School over many years has also brought me great joy. I also personally relate to a child's individual method of learning because I truly believe we all learn differently. There are no stupid or dumb children, only unique minds. Being patient, kind, and encouraging are only a few of my strengths, and I believe I can help any child reach their potential, even when they do not.
I have two adult children who have had learning disabilities while growing up, and fully understand a parent's frustration in encouraging their child over these particular hurdles. I have a BS in Business Administration and achieved my degree over the period of nine years while working and raising my family. In addition, I have volunteered as a Sunday School teacher over a thirty year period, teaching ages 2-12 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an honor graduate I demonstrated the qualities necessary to attain a high level of educational excellence. I have a Bachelor Degree of Science with a triple concentration in Library/Literature/Sociology. I have 9 years in the public school system as a Library Technician where I honed my computer knowledge and gave individual instruction to both students and staff. My writing skills are superb as evidenced by the many research papers I have written to achieve the honors that I received on my diploma. I have privately tutored, and given group instruction in the areas of computer applications, math and language arts.
I enjoy sharing the knowledge that I have gained, in both life and educational experiences, with children of all ages. I am patient, gregarious and easy going, and gauge my teaching style to fit the student. I believe that all individuals can meet their potential given ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I was the kid in the back of math class who was always drawing instead of paying attention. My early focus on the arts gave my parents a few gray hairs when report cards were issued but in the long run, that same focus has enabled me to build a very successful career. For the past seventeen years, I've worked full-time writing and drawing comic books for major publishers such as Marvel and DC Comics, working on books like Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man. My work experience also includes work in animation, video games, and graphic arts/design. I have volunteered time in several schools over the years, conducting workshops with students of all ages.
It's impossible to build a house on a poor foundation and I believe in establishing strong, fundamental skills of drawing and painting first. These basic skills then allow a student to branch out according to their individual inter ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I consider my style to be firm but loving. Children know what to expect from me because I'm consistent. I have high expectations of students and they have never yet disappointed me. My teaching hero was Jaime Escalante who taught poor, struggling, barrio students in Los Angeles college level mathematics in the 1980s. One of his beliefs that resonated strongly with me was "Students will rise to the level of expectation." I am passionate about teaching and in the process, inspiring children to reach for their dreams.
I have worked with children most of my life and have many years of experience with them, including independently tutoring two elementary students in the early 1990s. I spent two years as a substitute teacher for primarily Groton Public Schools but also Norwich and Waterford Public Schools. I am very good at teaching the foundational basics that an elementary stude ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is that of the constructivist approach. I believe that with the proper tools and guidance, students should be allowed to think independently and creatively. Ideally, I believe that when students are supported appropriately, they have the ability to learn to problem solve on their own, ultimately preparing them for the world, both inside and outside of the classroom. I feel strongly that students excell within a comfortable and nurturing environment, therefore, I strive to create that inside my classroom.
I am certified K-12 in Art Education. I have worked outside of the public school system as a tutor and summer art teacher since graduation. I have also worked for a non-profit women's health foundation, where I created and implememnted educational programs for women in transitional shelters. I maintain my focus on art as a freelance artist and continually wo ... read more

As a teacher, I am compassionate and patient. I believe in the importance of setting high standards for each unique student and providing the guidance they need to feel safe, confident and comfortable with themselves and each other. Through this type of environment and through building strong relationships between the learner and teacher, students are better able to realize the limitless possibilities that each possess and set them on the path to future education and success.
As a student teacher in a third grade classroom in West Hartford, CT, I had the opportunity to create and implement active, hands-on lesson plans in all subject areas including thematic, cross-curricular units on Forces and Motion, Native Americans, and Poetry as well as assess, evaluate and monitor student progress. In addition to student teaching, I have done volunteer work in a second grade classroom in H ... read more

My tutoring practice employs the Socratic method to help students help themselves become better writers, self-editors, and critical thinkers. I do not take a red pencil to their work and "fix it" for them. I do not put words into their mouths to then put into their pens. Their voices remain their own. A strong tutor welcomes and encourages this ownership and self-expression while teaching at the same time. A strong tutor also provides steady, patient guidance and gentle correction, but true learning takes place when students "see the light" for themselves -- a direct result of the collaborative effort involved in the tutoring experience.
I discovered the reward of helping others learn as a high school tutor. Later, as an English major, I tutored in our university's Writing Center. After graduation, I was asked to continue as a tutor/writing consultant for eleven more ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I find that my interactions with children, or even young adults, always involve establishing a personal, familiar connection on which we then build a relationship of mutual growth and education. I possess a calm, patient manner in conjunction with an impassioned enthusiasm for reading and writing. I believe that reading comprehension and writing competency are two of the hardest, as well as most important, skills that kids of this impending generation need to become passionate about. My best language arts teachers always made sure that students were invested in the material, and therefore my strategy with children definitely involves engaging their interests as well so that they learn naturally.
As an English major, I have graduated with exceptionally strong skills in written and verbal communications, as well as an analytical mindset. I was in the teaching program at the Feinstein ... read more

I have been in a school environment as my favorite pass time was to spend with children. Math is my favorite course. I helped students achieve good grip on calculations and solving problems. In Short- Teaching kids gives me peace and satisfaction in life.
Math is fun. Teaching math is more fun. I love playing with numbers and helping children also play with numbers and solve problems in the most easiest manner. I really wonder why does the clock move fast when I am in a math class.
