My comments on tutoring Drawing : I received my bachelor of fine arts degree in Studio Arts and Graphic Design, so I am confident teaching any style or use of medium in Drawing.

I go as fast or as slow as the student needs. I encourage students to try new techniques and ideas so they are self-aware of the process and learning experience that leads to self-improvement and development.
During the school year, I work as a curriculum coordinator and art teacher for an after school program in Lexington, Ma. This is my 6th year of teaching stimulating and unique art projects to children in grades K-5. I have interned as a graphic designer and also had jobs as a wedding photographer. During the summer, I work as an assistant director to a summer enrichment program in Winchester, Ma. Outside of work- I am a member at large of the Boston Guild of Puppeteers, and also work on my own art which includes building my portfolio of paintings to show and sell, as well as complete small digital photography jobs.

Drawing is one of my top subjects! Drawing is a very important skill to master not only of those who want to become better artist, but also those who simply wish to be more expressive individuals. Drawing creates the foundation for nearly every artistic discipline, whether it be paining, illustration, graphic design, or even printmaking. Over the years I have developed exception drawing skills and have become very adept at both seeing and rendering objects as they appear in space. Teaching someone else how to draw and in turn become a better artist is something I greatly enjoy.

As an art teacher, I want my students to learn to enjoy the creative process and develop an appreciation art, even if it is not something they readily excel at or are considering for a future career path. Through exploration of the many different forms of art, such as drawing, painting, three-dimensional design, and even computer-aided illustration, it is my goal to help my students break free from the stereotypical notion that art is all about making the most realistic image possible or that there is one right way to create. Too often one’s creativity is stifled due to fear or criticisms, or that their idea will not be good enough. It is my hope that though a combination of traditional foundation art skills, like learning how to correctly view an object in space and modern teaching techniques, that my students will learn to overcome this fear, and become expressive individuals who think ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel I have accomplished extensive training and maintain several effective qualities relative to the area of a Tutorial position. I graduated with high honors (Magna Cum Laude) from Salem State College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. I also have two years of a Nursing major’s curriculum from University of New Hampshire. This steers me to believe I would be the perfect candidate for these student’s needs. As you can observe throughout my resumes, I am a diversified, balanced, and well-educated individual, which would certainly be an added asset for the Tutorial position.
There is no such thing as an unteachable child.One must teach using a variety of methods in order to reach all learning types.They need to expand,enrich,& build on children's knowledge.Genuine learning is the process of discovery & students must use their mind, not just their memory.Invite & ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a gymnastics instructor for about eight years which has helped in shaping my teaching style. I love to push children in a supportive manner so that they can believe in themselves and truly get the most of their education. On top of teaching for the semester in Costa Rica, I also worked for a company called "Mad Science" for almost two years now. I was required to lead classes ages K-5 in an after school science program in which I was the only instructor. I believe I am fun but serious enough to make sure that work gets accomplished and that the students truly learn.
I recently graduated from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with two bachelor's degrees. One degree is in Spanish and I consider myself completely fluent, especially having spent a semester in Costa Rica. During this time I volunteered at a school teaching students ages 5 through 18 English at differe ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I feel I am qualified to be a tutor due to my current and previous teaching experiences in elementary and middle school, as well as, the successful completion of hands-on educational courses in History, Math, Language Arts, and Science from my graduate program. In addition to the course work through my graduate program, I have had several long-term teaching positions in which I gained even more experience in classrooms. Most of my long-term teaching positions allowed me to teach Science, Mathematics, and Language Arts and create numerous hands-on learning experiences. I strongly believe that it is through these hands-on experiences that students are able to grasp specific terminology as well as any other complicated concepts that may be a foundation for learning a given curriculum. In addition to implementing hands-on activities for students, I have completed an Independent Learning ... read more
