If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent through her citizenship exam practice. Another was when I prepped a friend for a lifeguard exam that she had failed twice. Seeing my students of all ages succeed is a joy.
My motto is if at all possible, I want ... read more

My comments on tutoring Social Studies : 10 years substitute teaching at the middle and high school levels. Qualified in this subject by WyzAnt.

In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly reputed language school in Vienna ... read more

My teaching style is to ensure that the student excels at learning and I will accomplish this by actively inviting questions at any time, no matter how insignificant the student may feel the question may be. I will treat each and every student with respect and my success should be measured on how well the student demonstrates learning the subject matter by being tested independently at a future date. My personal goal is to provide the very best education possible and I do so by showing patience, being easy going and considerate. My goal is simply to serve the educational needs of the student.
I hold an MBA degree from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University in Chicago, IL and a BS degree from Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. Both degrees are in finance, however, I had numerous courses in accounting. I have over thirty-five (35) years o ... read more

When it comes to learning I have always been a very curious person and that is what helps me to learn. I took a logic test at a college job fair and was recruited to work for one of the largest insurance companies in the nation with one of the largest legacy systems, written in COBOL. I learned to read code and to test code and became more proficient and comfortable with technology, managing complex I.T. projects and managing people to perform Quality Assurance functions. I have a passion for systems and teaching others how to not be intimidated when learning new things.

From my experience in the Corporate Environment and my love of reading I know that all individuals, grownups and children alike, want to learn and want to be recognized as achievers. My style is highly interactive with strong emphasis on student participation and reinforcement. In my current business, I frequently give presentations to large groups on growing and using fresh herbs so I am very comfortable in one on one situations as well as group presentations. I believe that learning lasts a life time. My strongest area is in reading and comprehension and I know that if every child learns to read and loves to read that will carry over into success in all other areas.

In 1976 I left the blue-collar world and returned to college, strongly motivated to learn. In 1980 I acquired a BA in Geography (3.81 gpa in my major, 3.53 overall), with a minor degree in Environmental Geology (3.6 gpa). During my last three years of undergraduate study I was the departmental tutor in Physical, Cultural and Economic Geography. Awarded a teaching assistantship at the University of Maryland Graduate School (College Park) in 1980, I taught undergraduate courses in Geography for two years. In 1990 I was a substitute teacher (grades 7-9) for the NYC Board of Education. For the last ten years I have successfully worked with students on a variety of undergraduate and graduate-level projects in many subjects, including Political Science, Psychology, and Education.

Learning is a lifelong enjoyable journey. I diligently work to make learning fun and interesting. A sense of humor, nurturing, hands-on experiences and my strong knowledge base is used to encourage and support my student(s) into developing his/her (their) positive self esteem and working up to their academic potential.
I have taught in three different states: Massachusetts, Connecticut and Colorado. The levels have been 3rd grade through 12th. Each state and each class added to my comprehension of the variety of needs and learning abilities of each student. Thus, allowing me to use a variety of ways to instruct and have the students not only learn but completely understand what is being taught.

As a graduate from the University of Florida's Proteach program, I've been given the opportunity to be a part of many different learning and instructional environments. I have worked with some of the lowest achieving students as well as some high achieving students. I have worked with students of all grade levels from Kindergarten to middle school. I value the time and learning experience of each student as well as their parent.
I love working and teaching with so many different students. All children have the opportunity to learn and sometimes it takes that extra effort put forth not only by the student but also a willing individual to help them. I believe that by giving students that extra learning opportunities, they are able to grasp the information or skills in another environment rather then the classroom.

My teaching style could best be described as democratic and socratic. I believe all teachers need to be well prepared for the classroom and ready to shift gears when a question might demand it. I believe that teaching and learning are one in the same. Teacher and student should be ready to teach and learn together. I am patient and willing to go as quickly or as slowly as needed. Students determine the pace, and delivery of instruction is based on the needs of the students.
I am a recently retired school teacher/administrator. My career has included serving as an elementary teacher of 4th and 5th grades as well as Special educator in grades pre-school to high school aged students. For five years, I served as a principal of elementary and middle schools. I am certified to teach all subjects in these areas and am certified in NY and FL.
