Patient, Results-Oriented, and Dedicated!

I use effective practices, strategies, and resources to inspire and enrich each student's learning. Direct instruction, workbooks, visual aids, computers, math manipulative, hands-on activities, mini-labs, student-centered discussions, one-on-one tutoring and small-group instruction are used to honor various learning styles, students' needs and goals, as well as to ensure they are active learners. Students participate in small-group instruction, hands-on activities, mini-labs; may use computers for further enrichment and technology-integration; analyze words and stories; make real-life applications to concepts being presented; and customize their own learning environment through student-centered and teacher-led discussions and enrichment activities while receiving caring and effective support and guidance from me!
As a person who works with various groups of people, I continuou ... read more

SUCCESS, RIGHT AT YOUR DOORSTEP!

I have been an educator for almost 20 years. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher and immediately fell in love with teaching children with special needs. Desiring to continue to teach, I finished a Master's degree which gave me the endorsements to teach K-12 children with special needs. Since then, I have taught reading and mathematics to both children with special needs and regular education children at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. As I gained a greater thirst to do more to help children, outside of teaching in the public school setting, I bagan tutoring. Between teacing within the public school and tutoring outside of the public school setting, I gained a great deal of experience when it comes to identifying strategies that cause children to learn and retain what they have learned. After all was said and done, I finally capped my educational aspir ... read more

My comments on tutoring Communications : Private classes and training in Public Speaking and Communication

Modern easy to learn Technic base. diferent style depending on group age and size.
Passion and dedication to foreign languages, with the ability to professionally and efficiently convey the lesson needed it to my students. Punctual and very conventional in the way I interact and teach, and most importantly in a fun and passionate way. Learning and sharing my knowledge is one of may many passions, especially when it serves a great purpose.

I have been a substitute teacher in all grade levels in the Alexandria (VA) City Public Schools District for several years, and within that I have a great deal of experience with ELL and Special Ed students. I am currently a long-term sub for ELL students at the Juvenile Detention Center school, which has added value in connecting to challenged and struggling youngsters. I love engaging one on one with students, which is why tutoring is exciting!

During my time as a college student at Bowie State University, I enjoyed many of my business courses in marketing, law and information systems. I also enjoyed tutoring as a sophomore in the subjects of reading, english and math. I am currently one of the Senior Mock Interviewer at McDonough High School in Pomfret, MD. As an Interviewer for the Seniors, I review the seniors 4 year portfolio that showcases the highlights of their highschool years proceeding with interview questions as if they were actually interviewing for a prospective job. I also currently work for the federal government in the area of IT procurement. I look forward to continuing tutoring.
I really enjoy teaching children and young adult. I take the time out to learn each individuals capabilities and I approach my teaching techniques differently. As a tutor, I have learned patience and enjoyable learning methods. L ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My specialty is developing creative strategies to get students to develop a desire to learn. In my experience, I've found that tapping into students interests and finding a way to tie that into the lesson not only grasps the students attention but aids in retaining the content. I'm an engaging and creative teacher. I care about each and every student I work with. My lessons seek to not only teach, but to equip students with tools to continue learning independently.
I have a wide variety of experience in mentoring and teaching. As a graduate with a degree in journalism, I have excellent oral and written communication skills including spelling, grammar, and analytical writing. As a science teacher to a group of English language learners, I mastered the art of differential teaching to reach several different levels of learners. I've taught students performing several grade levels ... read more

I enjoy teaching individuals of all ages and cultures. I adopt a hands on approach to learning and have extreme patience for slower learners. My main goal during teaching is to help one have a better understanding of the subject by relating to the material. To reach this goal it is imperative that I am resourceful enough to provide my students with vital and accurate information.
During high school I interned in a first grade classroom for one year in which I planmed/taught lessons. I also have young siblings and family members which I help with assignments on a daily basis. In college, I tutored students taking various Psychology courses. I enjoy conducting research, reading scientific articles, analyzing and interpreting data.

More About This Tutor...

I have always had the desire to help people, and have truly embraced any opportunity to work with and help children. While many children learn in various ways, I believe all children have the ability to learn and grasp necessary skills needed to be successful in today's world. My goal is to give back to the community and to be a role model for our youth today. I have been told on many occassions that I have a talent for positively affecting poeple's lives. I believe this is a talent that I need to expose, and put this to good use. Children are our future, and our children need young professionals in thier lives to motivate them and ensure that they have every opportunity to succeed. I vow to do this, and would find it a proviledge to be able to work with these children.
Recently, I completed my Masters of Business Administration from the University of Maryland University College. I ... read more

I am actually in the process with my students, their victories are my victories. I want my students to be proud of the work that they have done and the achievements that they have made. I give my students the information, I show them how to apply the information through modeling, I practice with them and then I release them to apply the technique themselves. Afterward I assign an project for an artifact that allows them through written words to translate their knowledge to another person. It is my goal to prepare them for life outside of the classroom, failure is not an option.
I have a proven success rate in assisting my students in excelling on standardized tests. In the 2007-2008 school year my students achieved double digit gains on the MSAs (Middle School Assessments). Also during my experience I have moved basic and proficient students to advanced levels on the standa ... read more
