Writing is one of my top subjects!

I've been a teacher's unofficial little helper since I was in Elementary, helping the students of my class that the teacher simply didn't have the extra time to help. From then on, I helped and even eventually taught my younger siblings when the current school system left them in the dust, and even helped them get a leg up and advance faster than their classmates. I've tutored a few younger kids in various subjects in my high school years, as well as occasionally teaching Taekwondo classes.
My teaching style is flexible, tailored to the specific needs of the student in question. Everybody learns differently and at different paces!

A Little Bit About Me...

Over 10 years experience teaching English and writing at the college level. I have tutored and been a substitute teacher at the K-12 level for 3 years. My work and life experiences include being an Adjunct Professor, marketing writer for an international firm,writing everything from a book on a medieval legend to technical journals, as well as being a mother of four lovely, educated, and happy children.
My teaching style is interactive and I find out what the student wants to know and learn before we proceed. We set our own goals and then work together on how to achieve them.

For me, teaching is not just a career, it is a passion. I enjoy the challenges it has brought me through the variety of grade levels and concentrations that I have taught. I have been lucky to have worked with diverse populations at all grade levels K-8. I encourage students to be creative, independent thinkers looking beyond the usual, to be flexible with their thinking, looking "outside the box". I want active, engaged students joining in class discussions, questioning and looking for connections. I like learning to be fun for my students; I constantly look for different ways to meet the needs of all learners through the use of differentiated instruction; scaffolding lessons, tiered tasks, hands on activities, discussions, and use of technology. My goal is to inspire students to be life-long learners.
I have a Bachelor's of Science degree in Elementary Education with a minor in m ... read more

I work best in a one-on-one situation. I feel that students learn best in a relaxed atmosphere where learning is fun. Students also need to see that they are making progress and feel confident in their ability, so I try to devise a system that shows them their progress and motivates them toward a stated goal. I also believe strongly in variety. All students learn differently and it is important to assess each child's individual style and design instrution around that, while keeping in line with methods that have been proven effective.
As a graduate student I taught pre-service teachers educational psychology and multicultural perspectives on learning. As a graduate student in school pscyhology and practicing school psychologist I assessed students learning ability and designed interventions to improve their academic skills. My writing and editing skills are very good. I have ... read more

I love teaching math because it is my passion. It is part of my life. Even though people have different potential to learn but I always find a way to adapt my teaching to anyone. As a plus, I am able to inter individual life to help people understand that there is nothing difficult in math.
As a civil engineer, I have taught math as a tutor at New American English School in Haiti for two years. Since I came here, I worked as a tutor at baron collier for a particular program for two years. I think that math is my domain I can definitly help anyone even at college level.

I am not only an educator, but also a Mother of two sons. One of my sons has dyslexia, which requires him to need a lot of extra work on his reading comprehension skills. Because of this, I have come to realize that students can be very smart and still need extra help with assignments. I am very compassionate, patient, and love kids. I also try to incorporate learning games into my tutoring sessions as much as possible to show kids that learning can and should be fun!! I consider it an honor and priveledge to teach, and my goal is to help your child reach his/her potential.
Math and Reading are my two very favorite subjects to teach. With a Master's Degree in Elementary Education and three years of experience teaching developmental reading, you can rest assured that I have the experience and education needed to help your child achieve their maximum potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a seasoned professional Tutor for the past 5 years; all subjects all grades. I have a BS from Florida International University and MS from Nova University (all coursework completed earning all A's). Having success in learning has as much to do with attitude as it does understanding and retention. This is the ultimate goal not only for the student, but the Tutor as well!
I've worked with children for the past 20 years and know the importance of helping children develop a positive attitude towards learning! Chances are if a student is having difficulty achieving academic goals, then they probably don't enjoy that subject and naturally resist that, which they need most. There are ways to develop a child's self esteem so they want and even enjoy learning!

My teaching style is simply patience in sitting with a child and allowing them the opportunity to read, read and read.
My initial post high school education interests were in communications. Although life and a need for money took me in very different direction than I originally planned, I believe my years of broadcast experience could be helpful in helping tutor others in their reading skills. I have written scripts and news copy that i then read professionally on air. I am an avid reader and think the only thing greater than the joy of reading is helping someone else to do so. I have spent many hours with children of friends and family aiding them in their quest to improve their reading ability.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an outgoing individual who is eager to help any child reach thier own potential. I am willing to try new approaches to help a child succeed. I often design my own content driven hands on manipulatives to help children build skills that are lacking. I like to use games to help a child explore ideas that are new or difficult. In my current teaching position I work with children at many levels and have the ability to differentiate instruction to fit those different needs.
I have earned a degree in Elementary Education and am certified to teach grades k-6. I am a general education teacher so I am well experienced in teaching all subject areas. I currently teach second grade but have experience in other elementary grade levels. I have attended many inservices that have introduced various instructional strategies to help children at all levels and abilities.

More About This Tutor...

I was a single parent to a son with cerebral palsy and "tutored" him through elementary, middle and high school as well as a community college. With his disability, my son required hands on help and patience and encouragement which I think I supplied with success.
I am now married to a long time elementary school teacher and we frequently discuss experiences in teaching. She knew my son very well and we talked about his needs in education. I enjoyed working one on one with him, not only as my child but in seeing the comprehension and enthusiasm that he developed in our working together. The greatest thrill a teacher can have is knowing that a child enriched his or her own life through knowledge and learning.
