A Little Bit About Me...

My tutoring style is very one-on-one and interactive. I encourage the students I tutor to ask as many questions as possible to get right to the root of why they are having difficulty with a certain subject. I enjoy students who are motivated to do well and who strive to get past their problems with learning. I try to explain things as thoroughly and concisely as possible in terms that a student would understand. Overall, patience, understanding, determination, and a sense of humor are all what makes for a positive tutoring experience for both the student and the tutor.
I have worked as a personal tutor in the past, and have helped students with a variety of subjects from Trigonometry to Spanish. I have also worked with international students learning English. I experienced great academic success in high school (I earned very competitive scores on several AP and SAT exams), graduate ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored philosophy students for a year while in college. I earned a master's degree in early childhood education and taught second grade for two years. I also was a substitute teacher for grades K-8th. Currently, I am a motivational speaker and a mentor through United We Mentor.
My teaching style involves a positive approach. I believe students learn best in an environment that is both positive and challenging. Positive feedback is essential because students are encouraged to take risks and solve problems. A challenging classroom teaches critical thinking skills that are necessary for the global market.

Everyone can learn; and everyone deserves the opportunity to learn whatever he or she needs to successfully achieve his or her highest personal, social, and educational goals. Every learner is unique and deserves learning situations tailored to activate and engage their unique background and learning style. In addition, everyone has an innate desire to learn and the goal of education is to engage this desire for learning in ways that are personally relevant to each individual learner. When students are expected to learn and engaged with their innate desire to learn through differentiated instruction that meets their individual learning style, they will live up to the expectations presented to them.
I have worked variously as a technical writer and editor, substitute teacher, and computer technician, but always returned to teaching. I possess a single subject credential in English, ... read more

I am a life-long learner with a sincere desire to increase knowledge. Having experienced both traditional and non-traditional classroom settings, I have had the opportunity to study classroom management, facilitation, and supervision. Team environments with a focus on conflict management, leadership skills, and effective communication have been great learning instruments providing me the opportunity to learn dynamics resulting in excellent facilitation. I have the ability to think critically, recognizing cause and effect of multiple situations. I have completed a number of Business Administration, Management, and Educational Administration courses with a steady focus on management and leadership skills and styles. I am fascinated by how different people approach different situations and resolve them using various leadership techniques. I have been able to teach others to solve problems a ... read more

I use Socratic questioning strategies and experiential learning to ensure that students understand why a concept applies rather than just memorizing formulas. I use manipulatives and visual aids to ensure that multiple modalities are integrated. I work with the whole student as a person, identifying how the student learns and teaching the student how to adapt various teaching styles to his/her learning style.
I have 9 years of experience teaching high school; all courses - AP Calculus, pre-calculus, algebra 2, geometry, algebra, pre-algebra (including special needs and english learners), and practical applications. Over the last 20 years, I have tutored students in all of the above subjects as well as elementary math concepts, writing strategies, and reading recovery. I am NCLB certified and focused on the defined national & state standards of each subject.

I believe wholeheartedly that all students can be successful in the classroom regardless status or background. Accordingly, I hold my students to high academic standards, and expect great things of them based on their various ability levels. Additionally, I truly believe that education should be a meaningful experience that awakens, in students, a genuine desire to become lifelong learners. It is my personal and professional goal to achieve such lasting affects by facilitating an inclusive student centered learning environment that acknowledges students' personal, cultural, and academic interests.

I believe that an open dialogue is a teacher's most needed resource. Any child needs to feel as though he or she can express concerns or apprehensions without the fear of feeling embarrassed or stupid. I truly believe that there is no such thing as a stupid question. Teaching should, of course, relay necessary information, but it should also foster a student's drive to succeed, as well as the knowledge that any goal can be reached through perserverance. I enjoy helping students of all ages, and I look forward to what my students will inevitably teach me.
