A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience tutoring Russian and mathematics to students of all ages. I am young and can relate very well to younger students, but I have alot of experience with adults as well. I was classicly trained in opera style singing since I was a child. I immigrated to the United States in 2008, and have been tutoring students in math and Russian on and off for the last 2 years. I currently work for Google.com as an analytical evaluator.

I have more than 10 years teaching at college level. I have earned my doctorate degree in Education, and my master's degree in English Literature. I can adapt my materials and lessons plans based on student's learning style and language background. I can teach from ages 8 and up. I can teach one-on-one or a group of three to five students.
I usually like to use Rosetta Stone and create my own worksheets based on student's needs.

I graduated from Syracuse University with a dual-major in History and Social Studies Education. I have extensive knowledge in reading, writing, and grammar due to writing two thesis papers, taking several writing-intensive courses, and also creating a plethora of lesson plans. While at Syracuse I was a student-teacher for a full year in both a Suburban, 8th grade classroom and Urban, 9-11th grade classrooms. I was also a reading tutor for an at-risk 6th grade student for a semester at a Syracuse District elementary school. On campus, I tutored Foreign Graduate students on their English speaking and comprehension skills for three years. Since graduation, I have obtained my New York State Teaching Crendentials.
Teaching is a very strong passion of mine and I intend on continuously working in the field of Education for many years. I am a firm believer that every child has the ab ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Individualizing English grammar, composition, and lit. instruction became a teaching strength during 12 years in secondary schools. Skills for ELLs were honed by nine years at a Japanese university. I tutored adults in my “Have English-Will Travel” company serving personal/business needs of Silicon Valley firms’ foreign nationals. Effectiveness with L1 and L2 speakers is augmented by detailed assessment and diagnosis of skills, with personalized remediation for desired proficiencies. Living in three cultures and specializing in Intercultural Communication enables connection with a variety of students. Publications reflect funded investigation of language minority students’ academic progress and well-being in Japanese public schools.
I love learning, and try to impart its joy to all I encounter. Much of that joy is realized by my students in developing and mastering needed and wante ... read more

I have been in the field of education for approximately 14 years of which the last 8 years have been special education. I have worked with students of all ages, on all skill levels and many with learning disabilities through 8th grade. I was a high school art teacher for two years and I worked in a college library for four years. I am able and willing to work with students of all ages.

A Little Bit About Me...

I firmly believe in catering my style to my particular student(s). However, I believe in involving my students in my lessons because I believe that this is the best way to both engage a student in his own education and provide him with a sense of ownership of his education. I am patient and believe that everything comes at its own pace, so I never force my students to move faster than they are comfortable with. I believe that comfort and confidence provide the best environment for learning; therefore, I strive to provide a comfortable environment and encourage students in order to maximize the potential that exists in them all.
I am uniquely qualified for this position. I possess an M.A. in TESOL and have worked for years in various capacities, including at the community college level and voluntarily, with English language learners (ELLs)and English native speakers. I enjoy teach ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that learning should be fun and meaningful and I want the students I work with to be inspired and engaged in their own learning process. When possible I prefer to use hands-on learning techniques. I encourage students to ask questions and make connections to the world around them. It is through constructing this knowledge that students will be able to think logically and transfer their knowledge to new situations. Through developing a meaningful relationship with each student I work with, I better understand her needs, interests and motivations and can support her learning. Through mutual respect, I can help a student to achieve at higher levels and reach her potential.

Even before I went to college and earned my B.A., I had already taught two years of ESL in Kachin State, Burma. I came back to the US and earned my degree in East Asian Studies at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. A few months after I graduated I went to the People's Republic of China and taught English as a Second Language from 2003 through 2006. In addition, I have completed all coursework for my M.A. in General Education, however, I have not finished the degree which requires student teaching. I am currently employed as a substitute teacher for two local school districts.
My teaching style depends on the needs of the particular students. I assess the style needed for a particular lesson and use visuals, such as PowerPoint presentations, textbooks, as well as audio, with such tools as are available after individual assessments. I have a great deal of experience teac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a believer of diversity. I don't believe that learning is "One size fits all". I am aware that children come from a variety of backgrounds and their home and outside environment contribute to their success. I am kind, very patient, and I have the ability to motivate students. I will always encourage and not bring students down with harsh words. I will help them find the learning style that suits them the best. I will strive to help them through any academic problems and turn them into solutions they can carry and apply to the rest of their lives. Every child has the potential to be successful, they just need a chance to flourish. I believe I can help guide them in the right direction.

I try to foster independent learners. If the pupil is perpetually dependent on the teacher, then nothing is gained- money and efforts are wasted. My techniques push students to acquire the skills and tools they need on their own. Everyone can aspire to this level of sucess if they try. I look forward to making a difference in your life, with your help.
I have a diverse field of experience. I received a dual B.A. in Linguistics and Anthropology in 2006. This allows me to understand language tutoring at a deeper level than most tutors. This foundation has been augmented by 5 years of teaching experience in ESOL, History, Academic Writing, and Professional interview training which I have conducted all over the world. In 2009, I received my MA in applied linguistics. This degree worked as a capstone to perfect my teaching style in regards to ESL.

I use the Active Participation strategy because it engages the learner not only in understanding but in contributing as well. This active learning process combined with introduction of practical uses/examples of the the subject matter provides a deeper meaning. But most of all the Objective,Purpose,and what their interests are, must be known so that these can be incorporated in the learning process.
I have been a substitute teacher for about 10 years specializing in math & physics. I have a BS in Mechanical Engineering plus 20+ years of maintenance/engineering experience. I incorporate practical examples in teaching to give students in depth knowledge in a practical sense. I gather my examples from my varied career experiences from the Military, Aircraft, Engineering, Manufacturing/Maintenance & Computer fields. I sporadically tutors students in my specialty.
