I combine a variety of teaching styles to accommodate student's learning style. When it comes to GED instruction, I would say that math is my strong suit. I always try to find examples of how certain skills could be applied to real life experiences.
I have experience working with students from Kindergarten through adult education. My earliest teaching experience was with primary grade children (K-2) in an inner-city school district. I taught basic skills to incarcerated men in a NJ Correctional Facility. I have experience working with first generation college students in need of remedial coursework before advancing to college level courses. I'm currently working (part-time) teaching GED writing and math, 2 evenings a week.

Literature is one of my top subjects!

I believe teaching is a combination of hands on and direct instruction. Learning should be fun too.

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.

If you Need a Tutor, Look No Further!

I have been tutoring since 2004 both privately and employed. I had worked at The Tutoring Center at St. Dominic's parish on Frankford Ave., in NE Phila. from 2004 until it closed in 2009. I have also tutored privately in the past and continue to do so. I have tutored students from preschool all the way up to college. I have helped students who were behind not only catch up to their current grade level but also stay current with their present material.
The Key for me is to Make Learning as Fun & as Easy as you can! Bc the more a student likes what he/she is learning the more he/she will want to learn! And to do that, you have to Know your student - his/her learning process. I also make a point to ask my students what they like & then I use that to make my lessons Fun & Enjoyable rather than a Chore or something they don't want to do! I also Explore Why they find a particular topic h ... read more

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.

More About This Tutor...

At Hofstra University I gained not only the experience necessary to work with a diverse group of children and teachers, but also the understanding of how important reading, writing, comprehension, and grammatical skills are in life. I hold a Bachelors Degree in English Literature as well as Sociology. In the past 3 years I have been given the opportunity to help students to learn and grow in several different fields. I have spent time in several different schools teaching middle school subjects to advanced learners and even children ranging from ages 5-15 who suffer from learning disabilities and lack social skills. I spend my time volunteering for many educational organizations and I am very proud of my education and experience.
My main focus when teaching is to "keep it interesting". Students struggle with relating to their teachers and administrators in a classroom or school set ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love the challenge of finding ways to successfully teach students by being able to identify and accommodate their various learning styles. I believe that all students have the potential to learn, but they all have various ways at which they are able to do so. I feel that it is extremely important to relate to the students and to relate what they are learning to their lives. My goal as an educator is to constantly improve my methods and to always keep learning interesting for my students. It is my goal to be the teacher that impacts my students’ lives in such a positive way that I am always remembered by them. Great teachers are never forgotten, and I will spend my whole life working at becoming a great teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is fair, but firm. I am a strict believer in following directions and organization as a basis for any subject taught, and I strive to help my students understand this process as they go through their educational careers. My role is not just as educator, I am a director in my student's study skills, for it is when they understand this, that they can truly be successful. I believe in designing creative, original ways to present lessons. I am in this career because I love what I do, and I am good at it, which is apparent to my students, their parents, and my direct supervisors.
As an English educator, I firmly believe that the more experience you acquire, the more effective your teaching style becomes. Since I not only teach language arts in a middle school setting, but also accept positions which require me to tutor students of all ages (elementary to college le ... read more

I don't have any professional teaching experience but by running a business for the past two years I feel that is good experience when it comes to dealing with the unexpected and having to always think on your toes. I deal with a variety of personality types on a daily basis and I feel this would help me transition into teaching. I am also a professional musician and have tutored a number of people in the field of electronic music production
I currently hold a bachelor's degree from Rutgers University in Sociology. My major gpa was a 3.4 and I graduated from Rutgers College in New Brunwick which when I attended was the toughest school to get into within the Rutgers University system.

My time tutoring has helped me shape a tutoring strategy in which I first identify the level of help the student needs and then guide the student through collaborative efforts to the realization of his or her own innate writing abilities. I create a safe space where the student feels free to ask any question without shame. Within this safe environment the student can help identify his or her writing strengths and weaknesses, and ultimately become a better writer.
My experience includes work as a professional tutor for Penn State University where I helped undergraduate students with English papers at all levels of development from brainstorming to final drafts. I also co-taught writing workshops on grammar and proper research for an English paper. In addition, I possess my Master of Fine Arts in Writing, and therefore have experience with conducting my own research and writin ... read more

I enjoy working with children. I believe each child is different in the way that they learn and you have to vary your teaching style to the child. However, my general teaching style would be to provide examples that the child could relate to in their daily life.
