Experienced and result oriented tutor

My background is Physical Sciences and I have extensive experience also in teaching and instructing students. I instructed students during their undergraduate physics and engineering studies especially in the lab projects in science and I also trained Ph.D. students during their research work in the lab. I worked with high school students during their internship at National Cancer Institute in Frederick MD teaching them a broad range of subjects, from calculus to chemistry and biology. I also tutored K-12 students in few subjects such as Math and Physics.

Guiding Students to Succeed

Use a balanced blend of motivational and targeted instruction methodologies to enhance curricula, focus on the three ‘R’s - rigor, relevancy and relationships. I use innovative methods and materials to produce effective learning experiences including cooperative learning, thematic instruction and differentiation.
I specialize in helping students improve their reading skills. I work with students as young as 5 who need to improve their reading skills or just learning phonics and how to read.

With all of my experience and education, I have had the opportunity to work with all facets of children; from those who require a great deal of help, to those who might just need a little more challenge then what their work was providing them. Having worked with large and diverse groups of children I have assisted in English, math, science, and social studies from grade school to high school. I am very dedicated and passionate about what I do; therefore the goal of the child would become my goal; only ending in accomplishment.
Not every method works for every child; with one exception, patience. I demonstrate and exemplify patience. If a child feels as though they are in an atmosphere where they are safe, free of ridicule and bias, then they are willing to perform. This process can be a give take scenario however. So, some flexibility is required as well, but eventually the stude ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

With a Bachelor degree in Chemistry my educational background is very strong in Math and Science. I have spent the last fifteen years in the high school environment helping students in all areas of their academic day. I feel very current with all standardized testing that has been thrown my way as I have assisted with administering SATs and Pa Assessments at our local Pennsylvania high school, and helped students in their prep for these tests.
In 12 years as a high school teaching assistant, I have worked primarily with individual students in a wide range of subjects ranging from art, literature and history, to science and mathematics. This has provided me with interpersonal skills and a pool of knowledge that will be invaluable in a tutoring setting. Flexibility is a necessary skill in an educational system. As a teaching assistant, I must constantly stay well organized under cha ... read more

I am the first college graduate in my family. In the last 18 years, I earned an Associate's Degree and a Bachelor's degree in Linguistics with a minor in Spanish. During my studies in Linguistics, I concentrated on language acquisition, phonology, and grammar and syntax. In 2010, I earned a Master's in Education with a concentration in teaching ESL. My degree in Education has allowed me to research various methods in teaching and how to best convey information to my students. I have taught K-12 ESL, Restaurant ESL, ESL for office jobs, ESL for medical jobs. I also teach Intermediate and Advanced Reading/Writing, which takes students from a basic paragraph to writing various forms of essays.
I believe in holistic education, one that connects the student to the world around him, using sight, touch, and sound. Research shows that multiple forms of input create greater pathways for le ... read more

I have had a wide range of teaching and tutoring experiences: tutoring elementary school students in math and reading in Boulder, Colorado, teaching high school boy scouts wilderness survival skills in New Mexico, teaching 7th grade science in Denver, Colorado, substitute teaching, and teaching 8th grade general science and 9th grade Introduction to Chemistry and Physics in Frederick County, MD.
I have learned how to work with different types of learners, ones who learn from verbal instruction, ones who learn from activities such as lab exercises, and ones who learn from reading activities. I love the diversity of learners in the field of education, and it is a great experience every time I meet a new learner and get to figure out the best way to help them learn the material I am presenting to them. I want every student I meet to be successful, and I strive to do all I can to ensur ... read more

I have a Bachelors Degree in General Studies from the University of Maryland which includes two concentrations: Second Language Spanish, and Human Development. I have tutored three individuals over the past five years. The first was a 3rd grader in reading and comprehension. The second student was a tenth grader in grammar and composition. And more recently, I tutored a seventh grader in second language Spanish. I have gotten good results with my students. I have been substitute teaching at Frederick County Public Schools this past semester. For two years, I taught high school Spanish in a private school.
I love seeing a student finally grasp something that has been difficult in the past. All students are different, and have different learning styles. Some are visual learners, some audio learners. Some learn by doing. I tailor my teaching to the student's specific needs. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a 60 year old Financial Manager, Creative Writer, Sales Executive with many years of Professional experience in several careers.
I enjoy working with younger generations. I believe stimulating intelligence and creativity in younger people sometimes requires thinking outside the box. Following instructions and completing homework certainly is a priority, as that prepares for adulthood. Going beyond that creates a desire for knowledge, and instigates entrepreneurship at a younger stage by developing desire for leadership and hunger for success. I often tutor my granddaughter and together after completing her school assignment we explore ways to learn more then required.

As I began my college experience, I knew I would study the biological sciences. In earning a BS degree in biology, I was able to develop an understanding of various disciplines of science, such as chemistry and physics, and also math. During my senior year of college I tutored young students in algebra, earth science, and physical science. Over the past two years, I lived in Korea where I tutored Korean people in learning the English language.
I believe that teachers are a major influence in every student's life.

I am patient, friendly, and dependable. I will work my hardest to make sure my students get the knowledge they need to have success. Because all children learn differently, my goal is to be as knowledgeable and fle ... read more

I believe that learning through hands-on experience is the best way to fully comprehend material. I want to interest students in academics. To accomplish this, a teacher must show how math, or reading is useful; how anything can be exciting. I want to make learning fun. And I use a variety of tactics to accomplish this.
I recently graduated from Bard College, a selective liberal arts school in New York. I have taken classes in a variety of subjects including biology, french, history, and writing. I recently completed a 90 page thesis. I have excellent critical thinking and writing skills, which have served me well as a student. As a tutor, I strive to engage my students in thinking complexly about the topic at hand. I have experience tutoring middle school aged children in music, math, and writing. I also have experience working with preschool aged children.

A Little Bit About Me...

I started my college education at Stanford University but finished up Cal State Stanislaus University with a degree in physical education and biology. I then taught primarily language arts and science at the middle school level for three years. After satisfying my educational wanderlust, I am now re-entering the educational field. I consider myself to be an extremely strong teacher, particularly in the language arts field.
When I was in the classroom I prided myself in "getting the educational job" done while at the same time having some fun. I have always had a strong rapport with students and believe I am adept at transferring my knowledge and educational talents. I consider myself to be a strong motivator without being overbearing.
