Highly Experienced Teacher/Director looking to help students

My experience entails a well rounded experience of teaching students from preK to adult. My most important position was acting as Director of Education for Sylvan Learning, where I basically ran the learning center. I supervised teachers and all student programs, conferred with parents from the beginning to the end of their experience with Sylvan, and did so much more to develop a positive experience with all clients and teachers involved. I have taught Elementary Level, High School Level, and substitute taught in Middle School Level. I worked for a company called SmartApple, where we graded statewide standardized testing. My specialty was in marking the writing portion. I have so much more experience, and I love helping students to succeed at any age. Please contact me for further information on how my qualifications can match your needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I focus on starting small and helping the student develop on their own. For example, when I teach how to write a strong essay, we write many drafts of an introduction. Then, we write many drafts of body paragraphs. Last, we would focus on writing a conclusion. Then, by working seperately on all of an essay's parts, the combined product is much stronger. The art of teaching is similiar to building a house: you start with an idea, then a foundation, and finally the framework.
I volunteered at the Ocean County Library writing center for four years and helped my peers construct, organize, and layout essays. I also proofread, edited, and helped in the creative process of their essays. I am curreently working part-time at Ocean County Library (Lakewood Branch) tutoring k-12 students after school in the S.M.A.R.T kids program.

A Little Bit About Me...

I began tutoring K through 5th graders at an elementary school. Many of my students only spoke Spanish at home. From then, I continued tutoring elementary school students with a wide range of abilities. A few of my students were gifted, and we worked on sharpening their already existing skills. Many of my students struggled in a specific area, and we were able to incorporate general study skills into our lessons. I was able to help all of my students with book reports and other projects that were more time consuming than regular homework assignments. Throughout college and law school I refined my own studying habits. I believe I can pass my study skills onto my students and help them focus, manage their time, learn and succeed.
Since 2000, I have tutored students of all levels in a variety of subjects. During my undergraduate studies, I earned a BA in communication (public relat ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Through my experience with Big Brothers Big Sisters and MAXIM Healthcare Services, I have tutored many children with different educational backgrounds that required different concentrated attention. I gauge how I tutor a child by their personal needs. I take the time needed to understand the child’s personality and listen to which is their preferred style of learning. I choose to gain their trust and build their confidence immediately. Used techniques are: verbal (lecture), visual (flashcards, diagrams, etc.), repetition (both verbal and visual), games, question and answer sessions, and more. It is most important to use the method that is the most effective to the child’s educational and emotional needs.
During my journey to complete my B.S. of Biology at The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey I was inspired to help others educate themselves. I informally tutored my peers in bi ... read more

I believe that education is the key to success for young students. As a teacher, I motivate students by ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities and discovering that truly inspires them.

More About This Tutor...

I just graduated with a BA in Psychology and are two courses short of a minor in Spanish and Sociology. I've always been very strong in the English/Language Arts/Writing areas as well. I am currently a certified substitute teacher and also already do some elementary tutoring. Some of my previous tutoring experience include writing, some psychological statistics and some basic math/language skills.
I love to teach and help others in general. I always had difficulty when I was younger finding a tutor or some help in my studies that I could understand easily. I am a very patient and have a great sense of humor that come in handy during subjects of frustration. I believe if you can bring a child into their comfort zone and put the directions in the most simple fashion, a child can learn anything! I'd love to turn a subject they avoid into a subject to brag about...

A Little Bit About Me...

I have not only graduated college with a BA in Communications and a specialization in journalism, I am also currently enrolled back in school to earn additional credits for my teaching certification. I will have my CE by the end of Summer 2011. I have interned/worked in NY for HUGO BOSS CO headquarters, Meredith Publishing Company (Ladies’ Home Journal and American Baby Magazines), and was the lead writer for Fahrenheit Media Group. I have tutored adolescent community members in the past on their writing/reading abilities, and results were evident.
I would describe my style with one word, "patient." I have a creative approach, an outgoing personality, and an encouraging demeanor. I am after results; I feel that every individual person benefits from various learning techniques and "one certain way" may not work with every student. A degree in the specific subject area, another soon- ... read more

I am a senior at the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey who will be graduating this year. I hold a 3.9 GPA in the Literary Studies program. On top of this, I will be graduating with a minor in writing. Currently, I am finishing the Tutor Practicum course. The course can only be taken through a professor recommendation and requires me to attend a class as well as tutor at least four hours a week. Thus far, I have tutored a wide range of students including ESL students and students with special needs. I have both extensive grammatical skills and organizational skills. Furthermore, I have tutored writing in a wide range of topics including economy, biology, literature, and history.
Tutoring is very important to me. I learn as well as teach through my process. Although I believe grammar is very important, I aim to teach organizational skills within any student's writing. I have not ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have worked extensively with children and adults in the study of a variety of different subjects. I am very patient, friendly, and considerate. I am a firm believer that learning should be an enjoyable and fun process that engages the student to think both critically and creatively. I strive to connect with every student on an individual level as I believe that everyone has a different way of learning and that, as a teacher, it is crucial to be flexible and creative in the way you teach. Many of my teachers have had a huge impact in my life, and I in turn, strive to make a difference in the lives of all of my students.
As an Ivy league senior, I have learned to have impeccable organization skills, focus, and studying habits. In May of this year I will have a BA in Near Eastern Studies with a double certificate in French and Women & Gender Studies. I speak English, French and Arab ... read more

I love to share my knowledge of the English language with others, and take joy in seeing others learn to craft words effectively. I believe teaching others to use language properly is an empowering experience, and I do so through patient explanation, example, and brainstorming. I use methods that encourage my students to self correct, which enables them not only to improve the assignment they're working on, but also helps them recognize their mistakes to become better writers overall. It is my firm belief that every student can learn to write well if they are given the right tools and the right training. When I teach students, I strive to bring out each writer's voice and tone through encouragement and instruction.
While a student at Penn State University, I worked hard to obtain a 4 year degree in English in just 3 1/2 years. During my time there, I served as a Writer for the C ... read more

As an Ivy League graduate, I am motivated to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned my bachelor's degree in Biology and Master's degree in Bioethics from an Ivy League Medical School. I hope to continue my education with a PhD in the next few years. My background and experience have trained me to explain difficult concepts very easily to students of all ages. Throughout college, I have tutored in English, Writing, Science, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Government.
I love teaching! Nothing makes me happier than teaching a student a difficult problem. I am extremely patient, easy going, considerate and honest. My goal is to provide the best education at the adequate pace for the student. I love reinforcing concepts so that my students are able to conceptually understand what they are learning. I also relate problems with one another so that the student ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a tutor, I seek to emulate the teachers in my education who taught me the most: the ones who were kind, patient, and who never stopped encouraging me. I believe that students learn best by doing, and that this is especially true when it comes to writing. Students best gain confidence through practice, with the guidance of a patient instructor. In writing, it is important to help students correct their mistakes, but to do so in a way that is not demeaning or belittling.
As a professional journalist with 10 years of experience, I make a living by writing clearly, concisely and accurately. Part of my job as an editor is to help less experienced writers achieve a high professional standard in their use of language. Having majored in English in college, I am also very good at writing academic essays, particularly on the subject of English literature.

As a young man I had several problems with math. It turns out that I was unable to visualize what the equations meant in abstract algebra and calculus. Eventually I was able to relate these concepts to subjects that I found interesting such as music and archaeology. Therefore creating more interest in the subjects that I gravitated to naturally. I believe that I could explain concepts to others in a way that suits their interests. At the end of the day the reason I would be a good tutor is that I am truly interested in learning and teaching what I learn.
As a graduate of Lehigh University, I am interested in helping others learn about the subjects that I had become well acquainted with. I have a BA in Anthropology which I believe makes me a great candidate to teach a broad array of subjects including reading and writing, history, art, and cultural studies. In addition I have t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am passionate about learning and education. As a native of Princeton, NJ, I have tutored Princeton students in English for almost 20 years. I have also tutored in Spanish (in which I hold a BA) and French (I resided in France for 3 years). I have a wide variety of business skills, and hold a Master's degree in International Business. I have excellent communications and interpersonal skills and look forward to meeting your tutoring and learning needs. (Me gustaria mucho ayudarle)
I like to adapt my style to the student's personality and learning style. Some students learn best through visual methods, some auditory and some prefer experiential learning. While textbooks often provide a good foundation, I like to use "real world" teaching if possible. For example, I might have a student act out a situation (renting a car, for example) that he or she may encounter in real l ... read more
