A Little Bit About Me...

Being special ed certified, I have developed many teaching strategies that help not only special education students but on level students as well. I am passionate about teaching and enjoy seeing kids learn. I am humorous and find that this helps students relax and relieves some pressure, creating a better learning environment.
I have taught Geometry, Algebra, and Algebra 2 in a co-teaching situation for 7 years. I have taught Geometry several years in summer school in Montgomery County Maryland. I am special ed certified and also meet the No Child left Behind standards in math. I have tutored Math privately as well. Being in an all inclusive setting, I have taught the whole spectrum of students concerning cognitive ability.

More About This Tutor...

I am a firm believer of a very structured classroom. I want my students to have a place where they can feel safe. I let the students know what I expect of them and how the classroom will be run. My students understand that there will be consequences for inappropriate behavior. I allow the students to be themselves and I strongly encourage creativity. I understand that I have to adjust my lessons in order to reach various types of learning styles. I want my classroom to be a warm, caring, and structured environment for the optimal learning. It is very rewarding to work with the students and see them blossom. I feel that no student is a "lost cause" and that everyone has the right to learn.
I am DE, NJ and PA certified K-6 as well as 7-9 Middle Level Science and English. I have experience teaching Integrated Language Arts to eighth grade students using a study skills and nove ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The University of Delaware has integrated me into the education field with a variety of experiences. I will earn my degree in May of 2011, becoming certified in Elementary Teacher Education and Middle School Social Studies. Over the past few years, I have strengthened in my ability to work with students of diverse needs and present effective instruction for the particular learner. This increases the student's motivation and desire to learn. From the opportunity to study abroad in Spain and Italy, I was exposed to different cultures broadening my understanding of human nature. Part of my course work has included developing unit plans, lesson portfolios, assessments and materials for students.
As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have the patience and discipline to assist students in learning. I believe any child can learn if provided positive reenforcement. While you lead by example, you must require the child to learn by trying and failing on their own. The trick to success is knowing when to show the child the correct solution and preventing frustration from setting in.
While serving as a division chief in a major Army Command, I had the responsibility to hire and mentor dozens of interns and recent college graduates. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Accounting, which has provided a detailed understanding of business and math. I have learned extensive grammatical skills while writing technical documents and correspondence.

More About This Tutor...

I have been blessed with several years of teaching experience in both Christian and public schools. I have had the opportunity to work with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade; this has provided me with valuable experience in working with each age group. I have also instructed adult foreign students in basic conversational English. I have recently tutored community college students in English, sociology, and mathematics.
I have developed an interrogative style of teaching in which I seek to ask the right questions and guide the students to the correct conclusions. I have found this to be far more effective than simply lecturing. I also seek to connect illustrations from everyday life and current events to the course material (when it is fitting to do so). I seek to build rapport with each of my students and "meet them where they're at." I believe that the compli ... read more

LOUD & LIVELY! I like to make the lessons I teach interesting and involvement is key. If I can educate and entertain (a tool I use), I command participation, respect and learning. Due to my style, students, once in a while, think it's all fun and games. I am also an enforcer of rules. If you want to continue to have learn and have fun, you better act right.
As an educator, I have tutored students in mathematics and English from grades 4 through college level. I have taught songwriting in summer camps, 4th grade language arts and ESL to high school kids fresh from Korea.

As a graduate of Wellesley College, I continaully strived to do achieve a high level of excellence. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I didn't get a teaching certification while I was in college. It is a profession which I would truly love. As the mother of two children, one of schoolage, I realize now that it would have been a great life choice for me. I have helped many people with their skills along the way, and I would love to do it in a tutoring format now.
Because I have a passion for learning, I love to share my own knowledge with others. Because of my own children, I understand that every person has their own style of learning and I love to discover that avenue for people to help them to grasp whatever it is they are trying to understand.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children can and want to learn when given the right opportunity. Sometimes a student needs a one-on-one approach to be able to reach their potential. The first and foremost thing that I stress to all new students is that you can never ask enough questions if you do not understand something. The only way you will learn and understand something is to ask questions. This leads to the most important quality that a tutor must possess, patience. My teaching style is to infuse the subject matter with examples that each student can relate to; find their interests and use that to help teach the subject.
I received my BA in Business Administration, with a concentration in Marketing, from The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. This led to a career in retail; 20 plus years in retail sales planning and inventory management. I am currently the owner and manager o ... read more

I received my first tutoring credential in the early 1970's specializing in prep-school placement tests, college-board prep etc. While attending Grad-School (Temple University) in the mid-70's; I worked as a substitute teacher in the Arch-Diocese of Phila. on a high-school level, primarily instructing History. At seventeen I completed the Evelyn Wood speed reading course, not that that is directly relevant to my teaching style. During the past 20 yrs. I have had a credential in several states, but have tutored only on a volunteer level.
My forte is adapting to the individual student. I have an inate ability to deciper the way each student's mind absorbs knowledge and I am flexible enough in my methodology to adjust to the necessary path. Although my approach is always conctructivist, my teaching methods vary from child to child. I was raised in the urban decay of the oldest neigh ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have three years of experience teaching at the high school level, including chemistry, physics, and physical science. I have also worked in the pharmaceuticals industry, where I learned much about the practical use of chemistry.
My teaching style is constructivist, meaning it all depends on the learner. Every learner has a different style, and I try to match that style. The important thing to me is that at the end of the day, the learner has truly learned and understands the concepts at hand.

I love helping students learn. I am very patient when it comes to teaching. I make myself readily available for my students and I do whatever I can to help the students learn. Today's learners are very familiar with technology. Luckily, I have had the opportunity to work in many technology-advanced schools so I, too, am familiar with the use of technology. Most importantly, however, I can teach students WHY the answer they found using technology is correct. Some part of learning is knowing what to do, but the important thing I strive to make sure my students learn is WHY their answers are correct/incorrect. I love being able to make an impact on my students' lives.
I took a high interest in my advanced-level math and science classes in high school and continued it throughout college. I took a wide variety of math classes in college ranging from Calculus to College Geometry a ... read more
