We cater to how your child learns! Although we are a new business in the heart of downtown Hammonton, our extensive selection process at UpGrade Tutoring ensures that our tutors are not only qualified individuals, but also positive role models and effective educators matched to suit your student’s needs. Using an internet based curriculum that is specific to New Jersey and Common Core Standards, students work with tablets at their own pace to complete different exercises and programs specifically geared to improve their basic skills, help build new ones, and develop good study habits. With these tools, we can pinpoint exactly what your child needs to succeed and how we can help. Whether you choose a small group setting (3:1) or a one- on- one session, your student will receive the help they need in a much smaller, and intimate learning environment.

As a re-founding member and President of the Syracuse University chapter of the National Society of Pershing Rifles (www.pershingriflessociety.org) I was responsible for the planning and instruction of between 12 and 20 students in the areas of Leadership, Project Management, Exhibition Drill and Wilderness Survival. Throughout my engineering curriculum I was very often tasked with assisted in the instruction of others in small group sessions as well as larger group project settings. I also received tutoring which provides a unique perspective on how adaptability is important. In my experience with teaching, I find that the best way to connect and convey the information is to provide aural, visual and experiential exposure to the material. Everyone does not learn at the same pace or through the same exposure to material. It is also important to be perceptive to the possibility of student

I would say that my teaching style is very interactive. Anyone can give instructions but I love feedback from a one on one situation as well as a group environment. I base alot of my instruction on analogies; when a person can relate an experience or another word to a term being tought, their understanding is broadened and 99% of the time embedded in the longterm memory. That to me is not only developing the ability to draw on a built up knowledge base, but also broadens ones ability to convey what has been learned. I have always wanted to teach. When I was a child I would round up the kids in my neighborhood and make them do lessons that I created. I do remember they did not like that. I went to college and earned a BS in Biology always knowing that I would eventually teach the sciences. I was an excellent student and have always found pride in myself on my ability to communicate w

I love all sorts of positive ideals of teaching, especially when the teacher gives students the power to teach themselves by relating everyday experiences, such as sights and sounds with different lesson planners. I understand how the human works in a classroom, some students will grasp concepts because of their up bringing and the results of having a balance home. Others will sometimes wander off, mentally because of attention. There are other cases, but I believe every child needs a fair chance to prove themselves to their own self. What makes a great teacher is their way to "rhyme" thought with lesson with application." As a History graduate, I fascinated and intriqued with the how powerful lessons of American History can relate to students of all walks of life. At Delaware State University, I double majored in Animal/Poultry Science as well as History because of the natural science a

Through the course load of my college career my studies also incorporated normal life span development, personality development, abnormal development, prevention, group behavior, cultural variations, and ethical and professional issues. I have developed specific knowledge and skills that incorporate broad application to many working environments. Overall, the classroom courses provided me a blend of theory and application. I had the opportunity to explore internship opportunities throughout the community in a wide variety of settings to provide experiences in applying knowledge and skills. The most important qualities of outstanding educators are experience, creativity, and patience. Each quality needs to be developed or tested by time in order to increase in its overall effectiveness. Teachers who can consistently employ all three qualities throughout their careers will be successful

I believe each child has their own learning style. Through a variety of approaches and materials each child can find success in reading and math in their elementary school years. I enjoy finding each child's path to success. I have taught Special Education for 26 years and third grade for 6. I have tutored using the Reading Assist program and various other methods for reading. I also have many techniques for teaching math to young learners. I enjoy working with children one on one or in small groups. I have retired from teaching but would like to continue working with children part-time. I have been substituting the past couple of years since retiring.

I recently graduated from Belhaven College in Jackson Mississippi with a degree in Elementary Education. I currently hold valid teaching lisenses in both Mississippi and Delaware for teaching students from Kindergarten to 6th grade. I have also taught a wide randge of subjects including: Reading, Basic Math, General Science, American History, Social Studies, Geography, Study Skills, Dance, Theatre, Mime, Sign-Language, Pilates, and Bible. The past ten years of my life I have spent developing my knowledge about teaching while also applying the things I have learned in real-life teaching and tutoring situations. I love learning and helping others learn too! Learning is the key to knowledge and also the key to being a successful and well-rounded individual in society. I believe each person has the potential to learn and achieve great things and I'm here to help people get there. I have work

As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches. Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way!

When I graduated with my Bachelor of Science degree in 2002, I accepted a job at a small school in upstate NY that needed a PE teacher. I quickly learned to just relax and "go with the flow" of how the students learned the material and what kind of different activities that we could do to "drive home" the concept of what we were studying. I also learned to be very flexible. I wore many many different hats that first year of teaching which has given me to experience I needed in my recent years of teaching. I am passionate about sports, athletics, history and teaching as a whole! As I mentioned in the above paragraph, I meet the child where they are in their learning style. I can adapt to how they learn best and then use different activities and tools to again, "drive home" the concept of what the child may be struggling with. I love teaching anything!

I received my first tutoring credential in the early 1970's specializing in prep-school placement tests, college-board prep etc. While attending Grad-School (Temple University) in the mid-70's; I worked as a substitute teacher in the Arch-Diocese of Phila. on a high-school level, primarily instructing History. At seventeen I completed the Evelyn Wood speed reading course, not that that is directly relevant to my teaching style. During the past 20 yrs. I have had a credential in several states, but have tutored only on a volunteer level. My forte is adapting to the individual student. I have an inate ability to deciper the way each student's mind absorbs knowledge and I am flexible enough in my methodology to adjust to the necessary path. Although my approach is always conctructivist, my teaching methods vary from child to child. I was raised in the urban decay of the oldest neighboorho

As an undergraduate at Muhlenberg College, I had the opportunity to serve as a peer tutor in mathematics to incoming freshmen. I enjoyed the experience of helping other students succeed. I have a bachelor's degree in Physical Science which allowed me to gain knowledge in the fields of mathematics and physics. I decided to further my education in the field of Applied Mathematics. I tutored for one full year as a teacher's assistant at Delaware State University. I had the opportunity to tutor students on a one-on-one basis and as a whole class. This was a positive experience because I got to see the student's growth throughout the semester. After having the opportunity to tutor one-on-one and as a whole class, I have discovered that each student learns in a unique way. Some of the students were visual learners, while others needed more tactile experiences. Other students benefited f
