More About This Tutor...

Education: Montclair State University BA - Art History BA - General Humanities Minor - Art History Other - Sigma Alpha Lambda Honors Society I am a museum educator and professional writer. Museum Education: I began volunteering with a local museum in the fourth grade and have continued ever since. I have always preferred working in living history museums as opposed to the big, dusty museums with everything behind glass beside little plaques that are too wordy even for industry professionals to find interesting. I've had many wonderful experiences portraying real individuals as well as no-name individuals from the Revolutionary War all the way up through the first half of the 20th century. Real, tangible history is what I always aim for - I can cook on a wood burning stove and know the basics of pre-industrialized farming, just to name a few things. Writing: I ... read more

My comments on tutoring Poetry : I am NYS certified in Literacy (grades 5-12) and English (grades 7-12), although I have several years of experience with children as young as Kindergarten.

Holding active NYS certifications in both English and Literacy has had a tremendous impact on the way I teach. I find myself much better able to engage struggling students. Quite often, particularly when it comes to reading, it is the lack of basic comprehension skills that prevent students from being able to fully engage with a text and to perform critical thinking tasks. My experience in diagnosing and instructing students at various stages and abilities of literacy acquisition has helped me garner a talent for overcoming this challenge, and propelling students into higher order thinking.
As an educator, I view myself not as a provider of knowledge, but rather as a facilitator. I aim to encourage the critical thinking that will serve students not only in the classroom, but throughout their lives. In my experience, I have become well-versed in student-centered curriculum develo ... read more

"A reason to write I seek to find.."

I have recently graduated from college. During my time at CSI I founded and ran the writing club "A Reason To Write" for three years. The club focused on helping students develop their creative writing skills. We also helped tutor students who needed assistance in writing essays. Part of my job as a leader in this organization was to develop lesson plans and activities designed to help sharpen the abilities of the club members. Under my leadership we received the Academic Club award in 2013 and Club of the year in 2014.

More About This Tutor...

For more than twenty years I have had experience in report writing, creative writing, speech writing, resumes, and projects. My expertise lies not only in the proficient use of the English language but in skills development. I can teach anyone of any age to discover, embellish, and resourcefully utilize even the most obscure of their talents and abilities. For twelve years I coordinated and mentored forensic (public speaking) teams that participated in league competitions. I can teach the art of public speaking and can develop “baby steps” required to inspire confidence in one’s ability to overcome shyness and “terror” when speaking to either a large or small group of people. .
My teaching methods include brainstorming, thought organization, use of the thesaurus, and use of adverb and adjective clauses to overcome writer’s block. These are in part “taught” but also deve ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a firm believer that every student has a unique way of learning. Every student is different and therefore no student should be taught the same. In my classroom I intertwine the works of Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence with Dewey's Constructivism to create an interactive learning environment. It is a goal of mine to allow each student to show their ability in the best manner that they can. Through the philosophy I teach by, I feel I reach each student to address their own unique abilities and skills. During the course of my studies I have come across a quote that as a teacher I live by, "If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn."
I have had various experiences from Pre-K through the middle school age, with a strong concentration in Language Arts at the primary level. I am Elementary School certified K-8 and I am Highly Qual ... read more

I believe that a teacher's role in the classroom (among other strategies) is to cultivate independent thinking through dialogue. Although learning information is important to knowledge acquisition, encouraging students to interpret facts through their own thinking can cultivate a classroom climate that fosters open inquiry and freedom of expression. Furthermore, in addition to helping students express themselves in writing with clarity and poise, a caring and nurturing teacher should act as co-inquirer and deep listener.
I have taught English, Philosophy, Speech, Drama and Expository writing in a New Jersey public high school for 16 years. Here I gained experience working with students preparing their college essays and various other writing projects and assignments. I have also directed plays and musicals and have worked as a camp counselor for a fine arts camp. Currently I am a d ... read more

I love educating others and teaching others to teach themselves. I believe each one of us has a specific learning style that needs to be discovered and emphasized for maximum learning potential. The responsibility of an educator is to understand learning differences and make sure to use learning tools that best suites the student. Without this knowledge, many smart and capable children will be left behind and not given the resources they deserve. This is why I love the process of learning and learning how to be a learner!
