American History is one of my top subjects! I have been a dynamic, creative teacher of American History at the high school and college levels. In addition, I have two masters degrees in history.

My teaching style emphasizes active student participation in the learning process.
I am a professional historian who also has more than 15 years experience in teaching ESL and standard English courses. While I have been a community college and high school teacher for more than 20 years, I have also worked in non-teaching fields that have enriched the content of my lessons. For example, I have been a Foreign Service Officer, an Escort-Interpreter, a broadcast journalist, and a park ranger.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a substitute teacher in all grade levels in the Alexandria (VA) City Public Schools District for several years, and within that I have a great deal of experience with ELL and Special Ed students. I am currently a long-term sub for ELL students at the Juvenile Detention Center school, which has added value in connecting to challenged and struggling youngsters. I love engaging one on one with students, which is why tutoring is exciting!

Hardworking, Efficient, and Productive Tutor

I'm a young student who enjoys teaching. It's the responsibility of the teacher, to cause the subject to come alive for each student, and that is what I love to do. Only through that, can the student fully grasp what the teacher is offering to them. Both the teacher and student or students can greatly benefit from each other, when things are done in the right fashion. The teacher perfects his or her skills and the student also gains whatever it is that he or she wants to learn.
Strategic and fun

Teaching is something that is not meant for everyone. I am fortunate to say that my academic success is due to my ability to break down any material to a basic ideal and teach the materials in mutiple ways. The most important thing I do is make the material appeal to any individuals. Once these things are established, I believe student can effectivly learn and grow.
I am Paine College graduate. I earned a BS in Mathematics and Computer Science in 2006. While at Paine College I took variety of science classes including organic chemistry, atmospheric science, and cell biology. Since graduating, I have spent two years as a high school math teacher. I have also tooken graduate work in mathematic and math education. For the past eight years I have also work or volunteered as a personal math tutor.

I have a proven success rate in assisting my students in excelling on standardized tests. In the 2007-2008 school year my students achieved double digit gains on the MSAs (Middle School Assessments). Also during my experience I have moved basic and proficient students to advanced levels on the standardized tests and helped the students that I have tutored in the past and currently tutor advance in the subjects of Math (Algebra, Geometry and Basic Mathematics) Science, Social Studies and English from failing to grades that show proficiency.
I am actually in the process with my students, their victories are my victories. I want my students to be proud of the work that they have done and the achievements that they have made. I give my students the information, I show them how to apply the information through modeling, I practice with them and then I release them to apply the tec ... read more

I mostly work with adolescents and middle school aged children as an English teacher.Working with students with disabilities has taught me to be patient, considerate and compassionate with diverse groups needing more attention than regular ed children. Each child has a different learning ability and level of comprehension which has to be meet individually in a classroom of 32 kids. I believe fairness is everyone getting their needs met to be provided with the best education possible. Given the opportunity, any child can rise to the occasion and meet and go beyond predetermined goals for life long learning. Teaching through discovery and constructivism methods I have experienced a successful history of fun loving and educated students.
I am presently a published author of children's books and have taught English and Social Studies from 2nd grade to 12th. Most of my students have had ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My greatest strength as a tutor is that I know what it is like to have no knowledge of a foreign language. Thus, I am able to diagnose the particular difficulties a student is having and provide appropriate guidance in resolving those difficulties. I believe in repetition and drills, both written and spoken. In addition, I also believe in using the target language as much as possible. I will encourage students to use what knowledge they have of the target language in order to communicate with me. I used to be afraid to speak foreign languages, but several of my teachers were able to create a comfortable enough environment such that I was no longer afraid. I hope to do the same.
My education in international relations and international public affairs has allowed me to gain knowledge in the social sciences and foreign languages. As an undergraduate student, I studied and worke ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching people French. When I was in high I worked as a French teacher aid and that when I feel in love with teaching French to people. While I was in college I worked as a French tutor for 4 years. I am patient, easy going, and considerate person. Trust me I knew the stress and frustration that arise when you are learning a new language. I learn to speak and write English the US. I believe everybody can learn a new language.
Although I am a native French speaker I took the highest French classes while I was still in college. I took this class because I wanted to keep up with my writing and oral French. The French classes that I took have help me to keep with my french.
