My comments on tutoring Social Studies : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have taught Middle School Social studies and I have helped many students to succeed academically. am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter.

I love learning to be a student and to teach.

I have taught in both high school the last 7 years and college for 2 years teaching reading and writing. I have taught English in the summers 2007-2010 to International Students. I have taught reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary. I have done prep for the HSPA prior to the test. All the students do three projects and with mp4 movies have been tape recorded and uploaded to my blog. I give them the url http://daylightblogs.org/esltech and mrwhalen and they get to see how they spoke, and conveyed the information. The ESL students are especially adept at art and drawing maps, historical scenes, and 1-2 dimensional projects. I love teaching and use the internet for practicing English and apps that are used on IPAD for writing practice and sending materials to the teacher for comments.
My style is more formal with the beginning students who need a lot of structure and hav ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching approach is based on the “cooperative or collaborative learning dialogue.” I believe that we all have something to learn from each other regardless of age and learning abilities. This is why I envision a supportive learning environment where activities are academically and socially organized with student groupings. I believe in a hands-on teaching that fosters children’s ability to work collaboratively in achieving a common academic goal. Cooperative learning enables interdependence in students.

As a 2012 graduate of Temple University’s College of Education, I have student teaching experience on the sixth and seventh grade levels, as well as, teaching and directing experience in a qualified pre-school, and have assisted students within both suburban and urban school districts. Recently, I finished student teaching within a sixth grade general education classroom. This position enabled me to provide these students with a comprehensive curriculum in mathematics, literacy, social studies, and science. I was challenged to actively provide a positive classroom climate, create an interesting curriculum, and keep the students engaged in learning. In my junior year at Temple University, a passion for, ‘Going Green’ created an opportunity for me to aid in the construction of Greenworks Preschool Academy. This position allowed me to design the curriculum, mission statement, and daily ... read more

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a teacher for nearly 14 years. I have enjoyed elementary school. The children like the way I teach them all their subjects that are needed. Many times I have taken students who have problems with various subjects and them have elevated themselves for a better understanding of the subject they had trouble with. Tutoring I also do in many subjects. I am called in by different agencies to help students who have difficulty with either a subject or others. GED I also teach and my students seem to do well and pass their test.
