My comments on tutoring Government : I have published a 'Brief History of the United States" and have tutored many high school and college students in government and political science. I have run for and held public office, myself. I am patient and understanding.

I have been teaching college (History, Philosophy, Ethics, writing, reading, social studies) since the early 1980's. I have taught in New York (LaGuardia Community College), Connectiuct (Three Rivers Community College), New Jersey (Mercer County Community College) and Pennsylvania (Bucks County and Montgomery County Community Colleges and ). I have also taught online (University of Phoenix, DeVry University and The Iowa Consortium of Community Colleges). I have tutored many college and high school students, as well as grammar school students. I have taught several test preparation classes and helped many students to raise their test scores.
In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that incl ... read more

Government is one of my top subjects! I am extremely knowledgeable about the US system of government, the legislative bodies, how the process works etc.

I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.
I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all students are capable and, given the appropriate amount of stimulation and learning strategies, able to achieve academically. I am committed to differentiated, individualized methodologies tailored to each child's learning style and preference and see myself as a coach and mentor in the learning process.

I am a professional with experience in the financial and legal fields. I have managed the training and mentoring of professionals over the last ten years. Specifically, I have instructed others in improving their writing skills and expressing information concisely and effectively.
As the father of three girls, I recognize the importance of education and the impact on the future of children and young adults. I also recognize that some children learn better in a one-to-one tutoring environment where there is exclusivity of attention and focus. My patience and sense of humor serve to create a positive relationship with the student that maximizes the learning process.
