I have always been fascinated with language and how it is used. I dedicated myself to learning the details of the English language. I have extensive experience teaching all ages and all levels and students from all over the world from many varied cultures. I myself am a first generation American so I can relate to the difficulties of not only learning a foreign language but a foreign culture as well for the two cannot be separated from each other. I have been a language student, a language teacher and also a director of a language school. I also have a formal education and training in languages and teaching them. Also, I have a genuine interest in other cultures and languages as well. I believe that to be a great teacher you can never have just one style or method because we all assimilate knowledge in different ways. However, my teaching philosophy is to teach so students learn but

I always enjoyed working with children in all areas of education. I have been tutoring children for over 10 years after my classroom duties ended. I have taught most subjects in grades 5-12. During the past 20 years, I have taught in the area of special needs. I am very organized, dependable, and relate well with children and parents. I look forward to being a tutor once again. As a graduate of Curry College in 1970 with a BS degree, I was fortunate to be hired by the Boston Public School System. After teaching for three years, I began graduate school at Boston State College. The majority of courses were in special education, which proved to be useful in my career as a teacher. I have tutored students in most areas of education. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching for the last 33 years. Although I am now retired, I still want to continue being an educator and I look forward to doing this

I enjoy seeing the light bulb go on when students grasp a difficult concept. I provide students with a template for gathering information from word problems. This helps find out what the real question is and how to choose the right equation(s). This allows students to be comfortable solving problems with or without an instructor present. I have a bachelor of Science in mechanical Engineering. I have experience as a Physics teacher, test engineer, and Mechanical Engineer. I have obtained this experience with Broward County, Cordis a Johnson & Johnson Company, and Motorola.

I was the valedictorian of my graduating class at the University of Richmond, and I have since been accepted to several of the top PhD programs for History in the United States. Before commencing my graduate studies this coming fall, however, I hope to pursue my passion for making a difference in students' academic lives. In both high school and college, in both individual and group settings, I have tutored in a wide variety of subjects. My students' academic performance has improved considerably after working with me, and I believe that my successes as a tutor have derived from my deep desire to impart my knowledge and my study skills to others. I believe that the best tutors are those who do not merely strive to dispense knowledge, but, rather, work to establish a dialogue with their students. Once this dialogue is established, the student becomes an active participant in the learn

Learning is an exciting discovery of how things work, and conveying this can create active, interested, and successful students. The essence of tutoring is the interaction that allows the discovery of the correct approach for one student. With adjustments from student feedback, a perceptive and flexible tutor can help a student to advance quickly. Excellent in math, I began college as a physics major, but I soon switched to biology and finished with a PhD in Zoology. I authored numerous reports. I taught human anatomy to nurses for two years and introduced intensive subgroup demonstrations. I later worked with graduate students in zoology laboratories at UNC Chapel Hill. I am a member of the Mensa society. My work in environmental consulting was both with companies and as an independent contractor. Subsequently, I owned art and antique shops and now sell through internet after teaching

Children relate well to me. I am not a dictator and the work still gets done. Everyone has his/her own rate and style for learning. I want a child to feel comfortable around me and not nervous. As a teacher it is my job to find which method works for each child. Some children may prefer to read a great deal alone and then write an essay. Another may prefer a boisterous classroom with a lot of student/teacher interaction. I try to accomodate each child. I would want to instill a love of learning and curiosity about our world. As a Midwestern woman from Chicago, I grew up with a very strong work ethic. I put myself through college by working in the business world each summer and college breaks. I attended Illinois State University where I was taught how to be self-sufficient and how to really think. I am resourceful and know how to find information as well. But, most of all I am a

I am a man born to teach. The inner satisfaction of imparting new knowledge to someone else, especially of a subject I love, has been the force that drove me through teaching Spanish for 34 years. My writing and speaking skills are equally excellent in Spanish and English. My joy in sharing knowledge drew me to the degree of Media Specialist; helping others to find knowledge. Now retired, I sought out tutoring positions to continue to help others find joy in learning. My teaching style is one of great patience, understanding, and desire to help students individually. Tutoring provides the chance to be creative in finding the method that opens the door to learning that which is closed for a child. I am a quiet and laid back mentor who easily wins the confidence of a young person. I am persistent to a fault, until the student comprehends. I believe that practice is the key to learn
