My comments on tutoring Testing Skills : Vocabulary and sentence structure are the foundations for ASL. The way in which you apply your skills will represent your skill set.

Start with the basics. Assess what level the student is at and then work that into a more challenging structure to pertain to what the student would like to accomplish.
I have been immersed the field of interpreting since 2008. Having graduated out of Bloomsburg University in 2012, over the last two years I have been professionally interpreting in three states and in various fields. My work ranges from public school classes, college lectures, medical appointments, religious sermons, platform events and government assignments. Regularly, I attend different workshops and Deaf events around the community to keep up with my skills and to continue learning the ever changing language of ASL.

More About This Tutor...

As an intern at the University of Bridgeport, I have learned a lot from teaching in the New Britain and Rocky Hill Public Schools. I have earned my Master's Degree in Education and plan on completing my certification in Secondary Biology. I have learned how to incorporate the multiple Intelligences in my everyday teaching of the subject matter. Biology is my passion, and I am looking forward to encouraging and inspiring my students in the field of sciences. I can envision myself encouraging and motivating students to excel in their field of studies. Science is not the only subject taught in schools. I would like to encourage my students to appreciate the knowledge and to become life long learners. Intrinsic motivation is my goal!
I would want each student in my classroom to feel wanted and feel a sense of their identity present even when they leave the classroom. Each student sh ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Trinity College graduate, I had the chance to experience a liberal arts education which gave me the opportunity to learn about and excel in a broad range of subject areas. Moreover throughout my college years I have been able to gain extensive writing skills in all my courses. Regarding my teaching experience, I worked as a teacher assistant for a year as well as have tutored ESOL and elementary school students. With the experience I have had as well as the knowledge I have gained about education in my college courses I know I’d be capable of tutoring various subjects, levels and age groups. I have the skill to quickly learn and recall course material, gain a complete understanding of it and then teach this material successfully.
Since young I have always had a passion for learning and my education, and throughout my college years my desire and love for teaching has grown gre ... read more

It is my belief that most students that seek out the extra help of a tutor have a much greater capacity to learn than they realize. It is upon that belief that all of my tutoring is centered around. My long term goal for most students is to show them how to be self-learners so that at some point they tell me to stop coming because they don't need a tutor anymore. This is done primarily by weaving study skills and tips into the lessons. This helps the students be more efficient with their studying. I also spend a lot of time de-mystifying the subject material. This makes the material easier to understand, which in turn improves the student's self-confidence, which in turn makes the next set of material easier for the student to learn. It becomes a never-ending upward spiral that eventually leads to the student being successful on his/her own without the need to rely on constant extra help ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As the "Summary of Experience" paragraph describes, I enjoy teaching people of all ages. I suppose my first love is working with young learners: seeing the "aha!" spark that shines when a child first absorbs a concept or masters a skill that is new, or one which has previously proved difficult. My teaching style could be described as "eclectic", in that I draw from the many resources available to find a "learning approach" that best matches the student's style and needs.
My primary activities during my professional career have been teaching and counseling. My experience covers clients across the lifespan: from infants in early care and education through grand- parents in post-secondary education and college courses. I have taught and tutored the basics: reading, writing, composition, comprehension, fluency, basic mathmatical functions, etc. I have also taught major required an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a retired Connecticut public school educator with over 30 years of experience. I taught both English and mathematics, grades 7 through 12, for the first fourteen years of my career. I was an administrator for the remainder of my career, serving at the high school level, middle schoollevel, elementary level, and central office level. My last four years were as a system-wide language arts and reading curriculum supervisor in which I worked with students, parents, teachers and other administrators.
The key to good teaching is determining the skills of each student, individualizing an instructional program to improve on those skills, and monitoring progress to improve the student's knowledge base.

I have taught music and guitar since I was 20 years old. I continued to teach guitar throughout college where I double majored in Political Science and Theology and minored in philosophy. My grammatical skills are excellent as I currently write for two different publications on the internet. I have been tutoring for the past year in Math and Reading in all levels from 6th grade math to SAT math. I also tutor GRE math. Math and reading are certainly my strong points now as I have been working in these subjects for this past year. I am looking to expand my students though and your institution caught my eye.
I have taught with students from the age of 6 to the age of 29 in all subjects from math and reading, to philosophy and history. I am relaxed and zealous when teaching students. I have a known record at teaching my guitar students all the basic chords within 3 lessons. I a ... read more

This week I am graduating Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), Troy NY with a degree in computer and systems engineering. For the past four years I have been working at NASA and our nations leading research institutions to gain a strong background in computer and systems engineering. My goal for this summer is to begin a tutoring position to help students with math and writing and inspire future engineers by relating the subject matter they are working to exciting engineering opportunities that exist in the community. My teaching experience includes work as a teaching assistant (TA) for embedded control at RPI and taught summer classes in computer graphics at the East Hartford Glastonbury Magnet School. In addition I have a strong background in technical writing, recently publishing a second research paper for AIAA.
Math can be fun, especially when applied to exciting app ... read more

A diverse education at Wesleyan University has prepared me to tutor many high school subjects. I earned my BA at Wesleyan in Music but I almost double majored in Environmental Science. The high expectations of professors at Wesleyan pushed me to greatly improve my writing ability, with my music thesis earning me honors in music. Environmental sciences sharpened my science and mathematic ability. Extensive courses in music prepared me to tutor music students in any background or concentration.
I greatly enjoy finding a way to inspire a child to understand the problem at hand. Through from my experience in grade school and my observation of students that attend tough schools I've realized the monotonous class schedule and disciplinary philosophy of most schools deflates most student's desire to succeed. While I can relate to this rebellious reaction I also know that it is no ex ... read more

I am willing to try different strategies to see what works best for teaching a particular child. I can cater to a child's visual, auditory, or tactile needs. I believe every child has a strength and I will use this as a way in to learn about and explore other academic areas with the child.

More About This Tutor...

As a psychology major I understand that all children have a different way of learning. It is a challenge in the classroom to provide instruction for multiple students with multiple ways of learning. I believe that with the assistance a student receives from tutoring, no matter what age, they will be able to understand themselves and their way of learning as well as the material. I am a very patient individual that works hard at helping students to determine what style of learning works best for them. This will not only provide them with instruction outside of the classroom but it will also provide them with the ability to succeed in the future.
I have obtained a Bachelor's degree in psychology from Western New England College and a Master's degree from the University of New Haven. While I worked at the University of New Haven, I was a Graduate Learning Assistant in the Disabilit ... read more
