A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and enjoy working with children. I believe that children require a lot of patience and understanding. My goal is to provide a positive learning environment where children can feel motivated. I believe that children can reach their upmost potential when they are with a teacher that is able to provide a variety of techniques and methods based on their learning style. Their success is my first priority.
Having a Master's degree in Education and Human Services, I understand the importance and value of education. I have several years of experience in teaching in higher education. I also have experience tutoring children in my community. I have tutored children with reading comprehension and written composition.

A Little Bit About Me...

It's true that every student learns at a different pace with a different style. I like to see myself as a cameleon teacher, catering my format to individual needs. My style tends to be laid back so that students are comfortable expressing their likes and dislikes with me, curbing their fear of not understanding something. I love to use metaphors, pictures, examples and stories to illustrate the subject in a new and perhaps clearer way. I don't teach and run - I make sure the student understands before moving on to the next problem. I have them work through something in front of me so I can make sure they know what they're doing. And, finally - importantly - I keep a healthy, balanced sense of humor.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teachers have been a great influence on me hence I think that each child should have an opportunity of having a good teacher. According to me a good teacher is one who understands the student completely. A teacher should make the child enjoy what he or she is studying and the teacher should also be friendly and should make the student welcome. Every child learns in different ways, and may be better at learning some ways than others. With my past experience I think I have learned a great deal on how to deal with a diverse classroom. All students can achieve their dreams if they are encouraged and have a good environment. I think I posses good teaching skills and can make my students learn and can make them enjoy the learning process.

A Little Bit About Me...

In 2001, I started my educational degree program. In order to better prepare me for my future career, I immediately started working in the school system. From 2001-2004, I worked as a 1:1 aide for a child in the primary grades, K-12 substitute in all subject areas, youth mentor for mentally disturbed children, and a life-skills tutor for a child with Asberger's Syndrome. The day after I graduated with my bachelor's degree, I was hired as a permanent substitute. The next school year I got a job teaching fourth grade and I also started working on my master's degree. I stayed in that fourth grade position until I relocated to NJ in 2007, which is also when I obtained my master's degree. Since 2007, I have been the basic skills teacher for language arts at a local Middle School. Next year, I will be teaching eighth grade language arts literacy.

More About This Tutor...

I believe every child is entitled to an education regardless of any circumstance. They should strive to achieve all they can become. I try to be a teacher with patience, a good listener, and to encourage all my students with a positive attitude. My students needs come first and I try to always have extra time for them if they require it.
I became a teacher because I enjoy working with children. I enjoy helping them in their learning process. When they do well in achieving their goal it's rewarding to me. I know I have accomplished something. All my students achieved a grade level or more whether I tutored on my own or with Club Z Tutoring Service.

A Little Bit About Me...

My philosophy of teaching is essentially helping students develop skills and insights in a supportive environment that they can use for a lifetime. For a student to be a skilled thinker and develop insight in any subject, he/she has to apply intellectual standards to access the information they receive in the classroom and eventually from the outside world. The teacher’s responsibility is to mold young minds by using a positive feedback mechanism to access the knowledge, skills, and more importantly the ability of students to apply their knowledge in a real life situation.

More About This Tutor...

I have worked with youth for the past eight years, beginning with my volunteer work as a camp counselor with my community 4-H group. I have since worked as summer camp staff; lead tutor for a private tutoring company; case manager with a focus on academic improvement, college preparation and dropout prevention; and most recently as a kindergarten and third grade English teacher. Because I have worked with children who came to the US as refugees from developing countries, I am very comfortable working with diversity. I have spent time working and studying outside the US and speak advanced Spanish and basic Arabic. Because of my extensive writing experience as a freelance journalist, I am very comfortable tutoring even the highest level of English or writing. I have bachelor degrees in Spanish and International Studies from the University of South Florida, both of which are magna cum ... read more
