Our students are our future.

I prefer to teach from the known to the unknown. I usually have a pretest and a post test to ensure that my students learn what I teach.
I have 28 years of teaching experience during which time I taught students from kindergarten to the 11th grade. I have always believed that every child can and should learn. My motto is Education is not the end but the means to an end.Furthermore, I believe in upward mobility not only for myself but for everyone.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Masters of Library Science graduate, I am interested in sharing reference knowledge and tutoring students in English or Writing. Years as a corporate professional in marketing, manufacturing and retail along with a diverse education in Librarianship, Humanities & Creative Arts, Fashion Marketing has enabled me to learn Web 2.0 social media information technology skills, and edit, author training manuals, correspondence, essays, or freelance pieces.
I believe in encouraging all individuals to read, write and learn in a positive way that best fits his or her specific learning needs. The best teacher helps guide a student through the process hands-on and finds the way to make it clear to that person on their level through gentle discovery and practice.

A Little Bit About Me...

I went from the Boston Public Schools to Commonwealth School and then Wellesley College, and would have been lost, early on, without help from tutors. I majored in English and Russian and work with several communities for whom English is not their first language. I am also a freelance writer and editor and I help my children's friends with their college essays. I work as a substitute teacher with all levels and grades and teach everything but Science and Gym.
I am patient and approachable but insist on the value of completing assignments even if the student "hates" them. I am good at explaining how this will be important later, which turns around reluctant learners. I believe in explaining, showing, modelling, and then stepping back while the student tries, explains, and determines where the mistakes come up. I value resiliance, and bask in the joy of competence achieved through ef ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that every child is different. Every child has the potential to achieve academic success. By providing the appropriate learning environment and experiences, children can meet their potential. I am easy going, patient, and motivated to help provide the best education. I believe that students prefer to learn through discovery and also through real life situations that they can relate to in their daily lives. I enjoy working with all children and would like to help make a difference in your child’s academic success.
I believe that a good education paves the path for successful careers.

Based on my academic achievement, I received a job offer to work in a prestigious Wall Street ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is a combination of serious, in-depth theory and practical examples to demonstrate such theories, all with a hint of humor, followed by significant practice of the newly learned skills. I've been "teaching" people all of my business career. I always start with the underlying theory and immediately segue into a practical example of how the principles work. I think students want to learn, but need the information presented in a way that makes learning interesting, not boring. I have that ability. I'm able to integrate relevant practical examples because I have a very broad range of experience, having been an entrepreneur and turnaround management consultant for over 40 years.
I taught a computer "cap-stone" class to graduating seniors part-time at the Katherine Gibbs school for 1 semester. There were approximately 14 Seniors in the class and we utilized all ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For the 2008-09 school year I was employed in the Connecticut school system in the special education department. There I developed experience tutoring special education students in grades K-6 and worked closely with a myriad of personalities, both adults and children. Additionally, I spent the previous year leading the art department of an influential promotional products firm. I gained experience in customer service and graphic design, and also invaluable knowledge regarding teamwork and juggling multiple tasks. These various facets of my background have enabled me to work well with both children and adults, in special education or otherwise.
I love working with both children and adults and enjoy both the similarities and differences in teaching style required for each. My previous experiences, both in academic and creative fields, have afforded me a great level of patience a ... read more

I taught a wide variety of business related courses; Accounting 1 &2, Automated Accounting, Business, Math, Automated Data Processing, Business Law, Introduction to the Stock Market and Investing, Workplace Readiness, Introduction to Business, Business Management, Web Page and Graphic Design, Introduction to the Internet, and Computer Literacy. I also taught Algebra I and a math class in a GED. program.
I like to first of all evaluate my student(s) and determine what approach will give them the greatest chance for success. When it comes to difficult material I break it down into small modules so that it is not too over whelming for the student. There are very many learning styles which need to be recognized, and I alter my approach to best serve the learning style of the student.

More About This Tutor...

I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math.
I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.

I love teaching because helping a student finally understand something he or she has been struggling with is very rewarding. Through patience, understanding and creativity, I feel students of all ages can overcome any academic subject they are having difficulty with. I believe that working one-on-one with a child or a teenager delivers an easy going atmosphere where the pupil feels free to ask any question. I believe in making teaching fun through hands-on lessons so students learn to desire education, and not fear it.
I am the first and only person in my family to graduate from college. Growing up, I saw how difficult life can be when one lacks formal education. I was determined to learn as much as I possibly could and landed scholarships to pay my way through undergraduate school. I graduate in three years by taking overloads. I then pursued my MA because I loved being in the cla ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate, I worked as a College Algebra tutor for two years. This required 3 to 6 office hours a week were students would come to on need basis or if their grade fell below a 70. I would also attend algebra classes every week to help the professor and the students. I became a favorite to many students and professors and was kept busy because of all the recommendations I received. During my last semester as a tutor, the director had a car accident and was out for many weeks. I took the responsibility to coordinate and lead exam review sessions for 20+ students by myself. Tutoring algebra was a great experience for me and I enjoy it very much.
I enjoy teaching all types and ages. I understand that not everyone learns the same, and I had many regulars that proved this to be true. I try to make the session as fun and light hearted as possible. I find when the stude ... read more

I have two daughters, two years apart, but only one grade apart. They both do very well academically and embrace the process of learning. At home we focus more on learning and how to search for answers than on simple memorization. I have found that this has given Emma and Claudia an advantage over their peers, as neither are "hung up" on what they remember, but focus on how to use what they've learned and to apply it as a tool in learning increasingly challenging and rewarding concepts. That written, the paths they travel in the searching/learning process are very different and a reflection of each personality. I am very tolerant and have found that appealing to a child's sense of humor is a very important first step to putting them at ease. Temper this encouragement with a consistent standard for success, I have found that all individuals rise to the challenge. Lastly, I strive t ... read more
