More About This Tutor...

Each student has personal methods of learning that work best for them, and certain ways of doing things that do not work for them. I like to try and explain a concept to the student in different ways until that particular student feels at ease with the theory and idea behind the subject. Once the basic idea is well understood the reinforcement of the principle by means of problem solving can show the utility of the idea and how it may be used in real life.
As an engineer and attorney, I have tutored while a student in college and while mentoring technician candidates as they returned to school to obtain associate degrees in technical subjects. I also undertook to write a sylabus and class concept for two new classes on technical subjects that I had approved and taught at Massachusetts Bay Community College. In college I tutored students in Math, Chemistry, Physics and Engineer ... read more

I am a very well organized person who can multitask and prioritize extremely well, however to me this important but yet secondary aspect of teaching is next to assisting children develop their social, communication, developmental and learning skills. Creativity in this job is a must and I feel you need to be on the same level as your students to engage them in what you want to teach them. Not all students learn in the same fashion so I feel teaching the same facts but in different ways to target your audience is very key in education. From reading, to visual arts and verbal communication, I feel that they are all just as important as the next one and I would encompass them all into my style of teaching.
My tutoring experience consists of friends over the years, however it has always been something I was very good at. I decided to make a career change after working at Fidelity ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an Ivy League graduate, I have always excelled in scholarship and academics. After graduating 4th in my class from St. John’s High School, I then attended Bates College where I received a Bachelor of Science degree in both English and Biology. After my second year of college, I was accepted as an early admission candidate at Dartmouth Medical School based on my outstanding academic achievement. I then completed residency training at Yale University and subsequently a Master of Intellectual Property degree at Franklin Pierce Law Center. I have tutored students at all levels in biology, biochemistry, anatomy, microbiology, organic chemistry, calculus, essay writing, writing research papers, and English composition and grammar.
I enjoy working with students at all levels and helping them achieve academic success. As a tutor, I am organized, resourceful, patient, and considerate of ... read more

I enjoy teaching and working with all students- elementary to college-age. I have experience tutoring and mentoring children of all ages, including special-needs children. I gain great satisfaction from knowing I am helping students succeed. Knowledge is power.
As a graduate student at Bay Path College in Longmeadow, MA I have mastered the fields of finance, accounting, technical writing, and computer skills. As a paralegal, my attention to detail has allowed me to master all rules of grammar and language format. While attending undergraduate school in Colorado I tutored classmates in Spanish, Italian, and writing. I also volunteered as a law clerk and taught Greek Mythology and Sociology to middle and high-school students expelled from school and placed in the Boulder County Juvenile Justice Center.

More About This Tutor...

Following my graduation from the University of Connecticut I pursued a career in the insurance industry but have also spent time working as a youth group leader and worked as a part-time tutor for several years. While living in Connecticut I tutored homebound high school age children who were either out on medical leave or expelled for disciplinary purposes. I am proud to report that in addition to several other students, I provided tutoring for a full course load covering an entire year for one expelled student who improved grades in every course and went on to graduate. I have also created training programs and hired and trained numerous employees in the insurance industry and serve as co-chair for an annual insurance educational conference held in New York City. While my degree is in English, I enjoy and excel in math and other courses as well.

I have enjoyed caring for & teaching children no matter what the individual need may be since I was 14.I have an enthusiasm for learning, but believe in gettting to know what each child finds interesting to reach him/her in order to spark the interest of learning & instill confidence, even if the thought was that the subject was 'yucky' or 'I cannot do it.'I believe all children are capable, given the opportunity, understanding & time.I think success stems from listening to the child, being able to translate that communication no matter what form into an educaitonal tool and then make it fun in a creative way.I think that a motivated child learns more quickly & retains a greater amount of information about the subject.
I have been volunteer teaching, tutoring neighbors and friends since high school including religious education.I am a Babson College Grad with 2 bachelors degrees & ... read more
