A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with students at all levels from pre-k to doctoral students and a present I tutor Master's degree students on how to write their dissertations. It is my contention that students are capable of far more than has been expected of them. The result of my perspective is that I now have students who are college professors themselves, teachers and IT professionals. Few if any of my students leave me without have a more global perspective of the world and a desire to make it a better place to live.
I began my college career at Columbia University, N.Y. where I matriculated in the top 5% of entrants. I moved to Africa where I lived and returned 10 years later. I joined the United Nations where I worked at headquarters New York and later as a field officer in the Middle East and South Africa. Part of my assignment during my stay in the Middle East was to teach the local staf ... read more

While earning my M.S. In journalism at Columbia University, I honed my writing based on the editing of professors who had worked at such publications as The New York Times and The Washington Post. Frequent editing during more than a decade as a professional journalist has familiarized me with the type of feedback most useful to developing writers.. I hold B.A. in English with a concentration in writing, and a B.A. in education, which have prepared me to help students improve their compositions. I have tutored English learners online for three years and spent more than a year teaching an SAT-prep essay writing class.
I am a patient, encouraging tutor who believes in students' inherent ability to learn. I excel at making complicated concepts accessible through questions aimed at helping learners draw their own conclusions. My thorough knowledge of sentence structure , ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and working with students. My teaching style most closely aligns with the demonstrator style. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. My teaching is performed with patience, persistence, and compassion. I am very easy going.
As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned a BS degree in Computer Science and have worked as a software engineer and tutor. Some of my mathematical skills include algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability & statics, discreet math, and differential equations. I am an excellent computer programmer, have a good understanding of physics, and I learned to wri ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion for teaching people things that I love to do. I love to write, to analyze literature, and to solve problems. I bring energy and patience to the learning experience, and I am able to explain concepts in more than one way. All people, children and adults, learn in unique ways. The best thing I can do for people that I tutor will be to help them understand the ways that they learn. When people understand themselves better, they can learn more efficiently in the future without the help of a tutor! My goal is for all the people I teach to learn on their own and to one day be able to teach others.
I completed my bachelor degree in English in three and a half years at Bucknell University, and this has trained me in writing, literary analysis, and oral communication. While at Bucknell, I spent four months tutoring children at a local elementary school in grades 3-5 in mat ... read more

My Teaching Style During my almost 30-year teaching career I had students with very different needs and abilities. I taught English from kindergarten through 12th grade in public and private schools. I worked with recent immigrants and refugees who were sometimes barely literate. I also taught English courses in language schools and prepared people to exams like the TOEFL. I had students in my classes from all over the world. This diverse background makes it possible for me to understand and help my future students.
My Teaching Style I believe in creating an atmosphere that facilitates learning. Students need to feel safe and comfortable in the classroom. This can be achieved with a lot of patience and genuine interest in the student. Though everybody benefits from patience and setting clear goals, teachers also have to take individual learning styles into consideration. ... read more

I graduated from Tufts University with a dual degree in English and Spanish. After studying English for four years, I have an extensive knowledge of the English language, English literature and writing skills.

I also gave private English tutoring to Spanish children. I have worked as a Tufts University Writing Fellow for two years. As a Writing Fellow, I meet with students individually to edit their papers for clarity, cohesion and general organization.
