Mastering the PSAT is critical in preparing for the SAT. Knowing the skills and strategies is what I will teach you, and coach you to improve all aspects of your verbal skills. Starting as an English major, and working as a tutor for Huntington Learning Centers, I have always loved working with students of all levels in the English language - in all its facets: from grammar to style. At a time when proper use of the language is increasingly rare (but required to master tests) it is a special interest of mine to promote successful language arts skills and strategies in students. Good writing can be persuasive, informative, or entertaining, and each has its particular components. Having been a professional writer, editor, tutor and teacher, I am intimately aware of what it takes to excel in each. Having been tutor at Huntington Learning centers and a private tutor, I excel at one on on

I have worked at Kumon Learning Center as a primary instructor for over a year, and have had ample experience in working with children of all ages in math and reading (teaching them the basic pronunciation of various letter sounds and words and basic mathematical concepts).

I have experience with teaching having completed three semesters of internships through my undergraduate and graduate programs; I taught Kindergarten, First and Seventh grades. In said roles, I was given full control of the classroom by my mentoring supervisors. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and impacting young lives (most of these students came from low socio-economic backgrounds and were gravely in need of guidance). I generated creative lesson plans and taught according to state standards. I also successfully dealt with behavioral issues and worked closely with not only the students, but with the parents and fellow faculty. In college, I tutored in Biology and Health/Medicine classes for one year. Through my extensive coursework and research and practical application in the classroom, I found quite quickly that there are several different learning styles. It is important to create lesso

Self directed, enthusiatic educator with a passionate commitment to student development. I have earned two degrees, (MBA/TM) Masters in Business/Technology Management, BA in Political Science/Public Administration, which has enabled me to motivate and challenge students with activities that address the diverse interests and needs of students. Along with working in a middle school environment, I have worked during the summer, teaching four and five year olds letters, sounds, numbers, colors, beginning sounds, and social skills. This program is called the Voluntary Pre-K program. During 2005-2006, I also worked with the Team-up program tutoring students with homework and increasing their skills in Algebra. I believe that my instructional abilities combined with my solid analytical leadership, interpersonal skills, and work ethic would greatly benefit your educational program. I believe

I enjoy teaching and helping others excel. I am willing to go that extra mile to get the job done and I make sure that not only a student passes but they learn along the way. I have several styles of teaching and I like to keep it interesting by changing up the way that I present the material to keep the student engaged and interested. I like for the students to participate, communicate and provide feedback. This gives me the opportunity to see what they know and what they don't know. Also it allows me to see the growth in the student, allows me to tell whether or not they are learning, and it also allows me to know what approach to take in delivering the materials on their level in which they can understand and comprehend. I have earned a MBA degree in Business Administration and a Concentration in Human Resources and I am currently pursuing a dual MBA degree in Management Information S

I am experienced in small group instruction, lesson planning, reviewing data, parent conferencing, and providing classroom management.

I taught in a classroom for one year as a teacher. I have taught title 1 for 3rd and 4th grade for one year. I have subtaught for about 3 to 4 years. I have tutored for about 11 years in all levels of math and basic reading. I am a visiual learner but I understand that all students learn differently.So, I like to change the way I teach to the needs of the student and constantly turning the tables of their questions with questions that make them think and answer for themselves. I can read and write upside down very fluently and I believe this helps the students understanding. I have been voted teacher of the month continuously and students request me by name frequently. I currently work in a tutoring center where I work with 3 on 1. I try to make the student comforable and wants to work as well as enjoys it. I have been told numerous times that they have enjoyed coming to me that the time

My initial goal with any student is to establish comfort and trust. My easy going style and infectious smile will help any pupil feel at ease. My hope is always to create motivation within the student and confidence in their own ability. I see my position as assisting the student learn in a non-threatening environment. Criticism will always be GENTLE and instructive, directing the child or adult to the correct solution to any problem. Increasing self-confidence and self-esteem will empower the student and create an atmosphere where they have faith in THEMSELVES and are certain that they can learn anything that they wish and achieve even the loftiest goals.

I truly enjoy teaching and working with young people. I am a public school teacher (high school Spanish and ESOL). I am kind and patient, and provide an environment where your student can learn. I am well-experienced with coming up with creative ways to teach and engage students in the learning process. I believe that learning should be experience-based; we learn what we do. In my language classroom, little emphasis is placed on completing worksheets as most emphasis is on using the language and expression. As a teacher, I find myself addicted to what I call “light bulb moments.” There’s not anything like watching a young person’s face change when they finally understand. I have been a tutor for about six years. I began tutoring in college, helping classmates understand material from various courses. During my teacher preparation coursework, I began working in the public school system wi

I believe that every student has his/her own learning pace. Each student is capable of understanding a subject if provided with the right basic tools. I give students a chance to first explain their understanding of a problem. I also have them work problems out and from their answers, I am able to correct their mistakes and find ways that will enable them to correctly and quickly answer questions. My goal is to provide them with tools that will make mathematics fun, easy to understand, and to answer questions using basic math knowledge. I am patient and understanding of my students needs and I will make a world of difference in your child's education.

Before, during, and after my college graduation, I tutored fellow students having difficulty in math, particularly Algebra. When I began teaching, I not only tutored my own students after school, but I also tutored children on weekends and summer break. When teaching high school, I worked in after-school programs with an emphasis on Geometry. I have also tutored private individuals in Geometry, and have been quite successful in assisting them in raising their standardized test scores. As a teacher, I firmly believe in teaching using all modalities. In large group instruction, I speak and use visual aids simultanously, usually color-coding and using images. This is followed up with hands-on experience, when applicable. When tutoring, I work to assess my students primary learning styles and prepare my lesson plan accordingly.
