My teaching style is very structured and organized. I teach with the style that every child is unique and learns at their own style and pace. I do not believe in rushing learning nor that every skill, style, environment or learning setting works for every student. My teaching style also mirrors the idea that children learn through hands on, interactive, tactile, and motivating experiences, resources and materials. Most of all, my style of teaching is based upon tapping into each child's own interest or interests that academics can be related and taught through. over 5 years experience teaching, tutoring, mentoring and providing academics to children ages 2 through 12th grade. over 5 years experience working with, teaching, caring for and providing assistance to special needs children and adults experience working with students and adults of all abilities and disabilities including

I believe that real learning takes place when students are actively engaged in the material. Finding the right materials to teach with will often inspire intrinsic motivation. I have currently spent over 350 hours in a variety of school settings. From private school to public, first grade to twelfth, I have seen it all. The majority of my experience has taken place in a suburban middle school, however I have also spent a reasonable ammount of time working with inner city high school students. I double majored in college to recieve a bachelors degree in literature and writing, and spent a full year interning at a student run newspaper as a journalist and copy editor. I have tutored middle school students with a variety of learning disabilities, as well as SAT prep for high school students. I am currently registered for a series of NYS tests to earn my certification to teach.

This December I will graduate with a BA in English Adolescence Education. My 3.95 GPA shows my drive for academic excellence and passion for knowledge. My writing, reading, research, and critical analysis skills have been honed through my studies. Furthermore, my experience outside my college courses have taught me the skills necessary to teaching. I have been a teacher assistant for the past two years. I worked at a school with special education students who needed much one-on-one help. I also privately tutored an incoming fifth grader in reading, writing, and spelling over the summer of 2009. Finally, I have created and taught four different units to junior high and high school English students during my student teaching experience. I believe that students best learn by being allowed to make mistakes. Instead of providing students with answers, I give them a challenge and guide them to

Through my years as a tutor, I have come to believe in the ability of each student to improve his or her writing skills. I have worked with students at many levels of comprehension and aptitude, including ESL students, and I have witnessed the confidence that grows through contact with a kind and effective tutor. I have become skilled in figuring out each student's needs--are they nervous about revision? Intimidated by grammar? Stuck in the brainstorming process? I have the tools to tackle any writing problem, and can think on my feet for that one solution that will make the difference. There's nothing better than seeing a change come over a student's face when a breakthrough has occurred or an idea has come to life between the two of us. I graduated magna cum laude from Bryn Mawr College, where I received a BA degree in English and a minor in Creative Writing. I have also been the recip

Working with children of all ages has taught me just how important education is. Reading and writing is especially important and they will need it in their everyday life. Every child deserves a good education and nothing would make me happier than to provide that to them. I am a caring person, always putting myself last. I am hardworking and patient.When working with others, children or co-workers, I put my focus on them especially when they need me. I always do my best and will not stop or give up on any child for any reason. They are our future. Before having children I worked as an teacher's aide at the local pre-school, working with 3-5 year-olds. After that I became a teacher's aid for the local middle school, working with children that were not allowed to go to regular classes due to their behavior. My main job was to show them how to write essays, reports, papers, etc. I also work

I am very open and affable. I have a strong sense of humor and am in no case a hard disciplinarian. What's important is that I believe in sharing knowledge with as many people as is possible. I believe that knowledge belongs to everyone who seeks it. And I believe anyone is capable of acquiring it. I have obtained my Master's Degree in Philosophy and Critical Thought from the French University "Paris VIII". My primary experience has been in politics and philosophy, and has contained, as non-academic experience, involvement in small political groups dealing with specific issues affecting society at large. Learning philosophy has meant a strong knowledge of the English as well as French languages, including a strong background in European history dealing primarily with the period slightly before the French Revolution in France up to the present day, including spots of history in Euro

I believe effective learning can occur in a 1-on-1 tutoring situation when the tutor and the student can communicate well. Tone, mood, and setting all come into play. A tutor who is relaxed, cheerful, encouraging, and resolutely intelligent is more likely to be approachable and someone the student will collaborate with successfully. I believe in active listening and working together to establish a method of studying. I took high school and college seriously. After college I worked for several years before attending law school. After law school I decided to combine my legal experience with hands-on medical skills, and I enrolled in a Registered Nurse program at SUNY Delhi, which I will complete next May. This summer is a lull before completing my education and embarking on a medical administration career.

I spent several years in my last job role developing and implementing a training program on budgeting, cost reporting and government compliance for low-level fiscal staff working on community service providers in New York City; often English competency of these staffers was low. I greatly enjoyed this experience that demonstrated my outstanding ability to teach and relate well with those often not of my same ethnic / cultural background. Throughout my career I have provided instructional guidance to others. My 20-year career experience includes competencies in all phases of accounting and financial analysis, auditing and risk assessment, and general / entrepreneurial business management.
