My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I have a background in Shakespeare.

My teaching style is learner-centered. I interview the student to find out how they learn best.
I am an educator and a writer. I have online and ground classroom college teaching experience. Currently, I write web content for iParadigms, a company that developed plagiarism detection software. I recently developed the web content for their online writing center. I also write an adult education column for Examiner.com.

ALL STUDENTS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE SUCCESSFUL ACADEMICALLY.

Motivated, experienced educator here to help your students!

I have experience teaching elementary, middle, and high school students in urban, rural, and suburban settings. I have co-taught in inclusion settings in math, reading, social studies, and science classes, and also currently teach in a self-contained setting. I am proficient in differentiated instruction, modifying curriculum, and individualized instruction. I utilize a variety of different interventions, including ones I have developed myself.
I am firm, but caring. The students are my number one priority and the reason I have a career. I use structured teaching and structured choices to ensure even the toughest students can learn.

Pittsburgh Tutor/Teacher

I have studied the indicated fields for over two years at high school and university levels. Also, I have taught English as a Second Language as an intern while studying abroad in London for one semester. For this position, I taught from self-made exercises, lesson plans, and individualised activities focusing on English comprehension, writing, communication, grammar, and literature.
I prefer to incorporate student participation as much as possible instead of giving lecture-style instruction to learn their unique learning styles and to understand more about my students. With this understanding, I will be able to understand how I can better instruct them and test them on the material being taught.

A Little Bit About Me...

This particular position interests me because I struggled with math through middle school and understand the frustration it can create for a student. Mathematics is now my strongest subject and I chose the profession of accounting to utilize those strengths. During my time at college, I helped other students with their studies in math and business, specifically statistics and quantitative analysis. Although this teaching experience was with college level students, I have held a summer job working with 8-12 year olds for the past four years. When I finish my Master’s Degree, I may consider teaching at an institution such as CCAC because I enjoy helping others with their education.
As a result of my post-high school studies in mathematics and business, I feel I'm suited to tutor people in those subjects. Statistics, quantitative methods, and analytical methods are my strongest s ... read more

I prefer to work one on one with a single student, I do my very best to make my student feel comfortable and ready to learn. I learn what the student likes; music, sports, movies, I use these things to relate to the student and then i'm able to relate the learning material to the students favorite things which I think helps them to be more receptive.
I began tutoring while in high school, as a junior and senior I would spend 2-3 afternoons a week at the Middle School helping the learning support classes write book reports. While in college at Slippery Rock University, I put up flyers around campus and worked as an independent tutor for five dollars an hour aiding my fellow students finish their final papers at the end of each semester. I feel that my degree in Creative Writing aids me greatly in tutoring because my ability to think outside the box and put myself in the writers shoe ... read more

I feel as if I have been preparing for this role my entire life. While still in high school, I became a peer tutor for grades K-12. I continued tutoring while attending Saint Vincent College, where I volunteered as a teacher for the Step-Up Program - I taught a literature class for home and cyber school students. For the past year, I've been a substitute teacher in many local school districts and have also completed some one-on-one tutoring in secondary level History and English. My broad range of teaching and tutoring experience has allowed me to acquire an array of techniques and information, including extensive grammatical and researching skills.
I have always enjoyed working with children. My current position as a substitute teacher and tutor has allowed me to work with many different children and experience how to teach in different settings. Each child learns differently, and ... read more

I have always loved working with children and had dreams of being a teacher when I grew up as long as I can remember. I love to incorporate creativity into learning, especially by motivating children through their interest areas. To do this, I take time to learn about my students. I believe inquiry-based learning is the most effective because students drive their success and learning through their own interests and wonderings about their world. I find nothing more satisfying than watching a child smile when they finally understand a concept and feel confident in themselves.
As a graduate of the prestigious university, Duquesne, I learned early on to be driven with my work ethics in the classroom.

As a graduate of Duke University, I discovered new ways to unlock my own natural curiosity and translate it into qualifications and diplomas. I have successfully taught similar methods of achieving one's goals to friends and family when they have needed tutoring. I have a great deal of volunteer experience of teaching one-on-one, but I have not yet officially tutored. I am passionate about communicating with individuals rather than classrooms. I am excited to teach motivated individuals who care about learning to achieve their own goals. Also, because I have three younger sisters, I have experienced the learning processes of many different individuals from many different perspectives.
I graduated from Duke University with a Bachelor's degree in English and I recently earned a Master's degree in Creative Writing from Chatham University in Pittsburgh. While English, Creative Writi ... read more

I began my study of American Sign Language (ASL) at the tender age of 12, then studied Latin in high school with Mrs. Ellen Conrad. When I reached college, I continued my study of ASL while tutoring friends in Latin. I have studied Arabic and Irish Gaelic at the college level, and dabbled in Spanish, Hawaiian Creole, and various African languages. In addition to learning, I love to teach. I began teaching ASL while I was still a high school student, and continue tutoring friends in ASL and Latin. As a college student, I began teaching and coaching fencing to all age groups, but specifically students in grades 6-12.
My favorite aspect of coaching, teaching, and tutoring is the personal connection I build with my students. As a student, I did not adapt well to traditional educational settings, and so I seek to create a nontraditional environment for my students that involves ki ... read more

I hold a degree in Political Science, but I concentrated in international relations with a fascination for other cultures and languages. Having lived in both England and France, I have been forced to adapt to new ways of thinking, speaking, writing and eventually teaching, where I was thrown in a classroom of French students for which I became a role model of American culture. It was during this time that I decided to work towards becoming a teacher. Further,I am a university speech champion and have written many essays over the course of my studies. Some of which were presented to tutors at Oxford and critiqued on a weekly basis. Thus, my writing skills were formed during this time.
I believe that every student can choose where he/she wants to go, as long as they are given the tools to acheive these ambitions. I have a heart for children and love watching their minds emb ... read more

I prefer to begin by having the student describe the current subject matter to the best of his/her abilities to determine a starting point. I have found that having the student talk through the subject matter can be useful in determining his/her strengths and level of understanding. I like to have the student work through some problems they have not been assigned from their book/notes so that they are able to practice and work through some other problems before attempting any assignments. I have also found that it is useful to go over any previous quizzes or tests related to the current subject matter as difficulties are sometimes related to previous work because with these subjects the work tends to build upon itself.
I have been selected as a peer tutor through Carlow University for Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics.
