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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching people of all ages. My easy going demeanor and enthusiastic attitude have allowed me to make a strong connection with all my students. This connection is crucial because I have a what I believe is a traditional teaching style which emphasizes organization and analytical skills through constant and sustained practice. By connecting with my students and treating them as individuals, I foster the sense of responsibility required to follow through and become a successful student in any subject.
As an undergraduate at NYU, I earned that extra spending money by tutoring Latin. As my customer base grew, I branched out into mathematics and general study skills. After college I went to Europe to earn an MA in Linguistics. Upon return, I immediately began a PhD program, and I used my previous experience in a number of side jobs teaching English as a second language. Ov ... read more

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.

More About This Tutor...

I have always loved to teach – even as a child in front of a tiny blackboard in my living room, playing school with my sister. Since then, I have continuously sought opportunities to teach outside of my daily school and work life. As an undergraduate at Middlebury College, I volunteered to teach beginning German at a local elementary school. After college, I taught seventh-grade Faith Formation at my church and also led monthly, 3-hour Confirmation preparation classes. My college coursework helped me develop excellent reading, writing, and language skills, but I am also competent in math and could easily tutor that subject on a grade school level.
I believe that a love of school and learning begins with confidence in one's own abilities. Some find it easy, and others need a certain dose of encouragement and guidance to gain that self-assurance. As a tutor, I think it’s important to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My undergraduate major was Writing-in-Education so I began working in New York city schools during college as a playwright's assistant and while studying tracking in elementary schools. I then taught literary arts at a Montessori camp for teens and took classes toward Language Arts teaching certification at Southern Connecticut State University. I have taught high school English and complementary journalism skills to junior high students. I have also taught reading and writing to elementary school students as a Writer-in-Residence and worked as a math and reading tutor for fifth graders this year. English is my specialty and I have also tutored Social Studies (I minored in anthropology).
I specialize in working with students who have behavioral and/or learning issues. Much of my experience has been teaching academically at-risk teens and pre-teens as well as emotionally troub ... read more

I am a recent college graduate who is very focused and motivated. I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and graduated early. While being in school I was enrolled full time taking five classes a semester, along with working full time. I have great time management skills, and I am a great teacher. With my studies I have become a better writer with all the research paper I did for psychological experiments, along with having a better understanding with math and statistics. I was a tutor working at Newtown Youth Services for four years with Middle School aged children in an after school program. I really enjoyed the experience, and believe that I have gained more experience sense then which would benefit many people that I would work with. I am a great listener, and understand that different people have different learning styles and abilities. Overall I feel I would be a great tutor. ... read more

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

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 student is comfortable and more at ease, he/she learns much better. I take tutoring seriously, and I truly enjoy helping young students strive to be successful. In large group settings I was able to get interaction and was very effective at helping many people at once. When teaching, or learning something myself, I like to find the simplest and most relative way of thinking of the topic at hand. For complex equations I would find easy things for the students to relate it to.
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 ... read more
