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.

More About This Tutor...

I allow students to work at their own pace and, if possible, provide them with more than one solution to the problem they are trying to solve, whether it be visual, mathematical or basic study skills. This way, they can learn in the way that fits them best. I am patient and willing, and I speak in a more casual way so as to keep students comfortable and interested. On that same note, I often compare study skills or tasks to everyday life so that they can better see the relevance of their education.
As a liberal arts college, Connecticut College allowed me to pursue many areas of interest while earning my bachelor’s degree in Studio Art. I now, not only have a degree in drawing, but also a certificate in Museum Studies and a solid foundation in art history, Spanish, and chemistry.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 effort.
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 ... read more

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 and understanding regarding the needs of those I teach. I believe in thinking outside the box and, as a result, have found that anyone can learn a discipline if their instructor approaches the subject from many different angles. My biggest reason for teaching is a genuine love for my students and the immense pride I feel when I know I have made a difference in their learning experience.
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 child ... read more

With my background in Humanities, my mission as an educator would be to enlighten the minds of the students in my class by incorporating other subjects into literature. Having my Master's Degree in Humanities has enabled me to study and gain knowledge about a diverse academic spectrum. The knowledge of multiple subjects is essential when teaching English because it creates a more diverse learning experience where students can see just how interconnected history and literature – and life – truly are. My goal to is help every child succeed in education and enjoy the process of learning; I intend to engender and use the students’ passions to help facilitate a lesson or unit.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate from Albertus Magnus College and my concentration was in Child Development. Most of my education included studying the child's brain and how it develops and learns. Studying child development has become essential to my practice as a teacher in the early childhood and primary grade levels. For my masters program I have studied and focused primarily on teaching techniques for reading and writing. I have tutored students on reading and writing. I am currently teaching Pre K for 7 years now and have worked with/interned with Kindergarten, First, and Second grade teachers. Next year, I am going to be teaching third grade full time.
I enjoy working with children and getting to know them and their learning styles. Each child learns in different ways and I like to focus on using a variety of methods. Some children are more visual learners, while others are auditory learners ... read more

I believe that there is no such thing as a "bad" student/child. There are children that need more help and attention than others but everyone deserves the same amount of effort. I am very patient and laid back and really want to provide the best care possible to all children that I teach. I believe that students learn best when they are completely involved in the lesson. I like hands-on activities and less lecturing. The children that I teach now could testify to my ability to bring humor into the classroom and to make sure that learning is fun.
I received my BA from one of the top liberal arts colleges in the country. In addition to my psychology degree, I also studied Spanish extensively. Based on the liberal arts education that I received, I am fully capable of teaching a number of subjects including Spanish, History, and English. Currently, I teach Spanish and US Histor ... read more

I have extensive experience working with children and adults in teaching environments. I believe every single person deserves a chance to succeed.

Art is a very important part of a student’s academic life. It helps them to be well-rounded individuals. I believe that all children possess an innate creativity that must be encouraged and nurtured. As a teacher, I have an understanding that all students are different and learn at different levels. It is my goal to teach, encourage, inspire, and motivate each student to learn the necessary tools to master technical art skills and to develop their own personal style.
As a Fine Arts graduate, I have advanced artistic technical skills and extensive experience in painting, drawing, and sculpture. I continue to learn from other working artists and have developed my own personal style. I am inspired not only to paint but also to share what I have learned about the creative process with others. Over the past 10 years I have taught art classes to children ages 6 to 12, given privat ... read more
