Become a star, through dedication and desire to succeed!!

I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading. I began my education thinking I would be an elementary school teacher but then discovered my love of science so I took additional classes while completing my Master's so I could be certified to teach science. When I began teaching I realized many special education students were not receiving the appropriate accommodations to ensure their success so I decided to specialize in Special Education as I pursue my PhD so I can offer the best education to my students and help them become successful and feel confident with their new skills.
I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what ... read more

My comments on tutoring Marine Biology : Subject that I have taught as an elective subject.

I was employed by the Lakeland Central School District as a substitute Teacher Aide and later in a full time capacity. I worked for the OASIS Program and later at the Alternative High School. After completing my Bachelor's Degree at Concordia College, I applied for and was accepted into the New York City Teaching Fellows Program. I taught Special Education at a high needs urban high school in the Bronx. This was a challenging and rewarding experience. Many of my students continued on to post secondary schools. I am currently finishing my Master's degree program at City College of New York, expected graduation is May 2013.
I have a varied style, which is geared to the learning style of my students. I teach world to text, text to text, text to life.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a life long learner myself, I understand the practical use of the information I teach and try to help students understand the detail that leads to a "big picture" understanding of the topic and how it relates to the professional world as well. I believe in self discovery by the student by my guidance and the use of examples so they can be applied easily to problems the student my encounter in their own life.
As a current Director of Health for a large City in Connecticut, I have learned the value of education and the use of my technical skills to communicate with my residents and help them improve their health as well. I have earned multiple degrees in Public Health, Experimental Pathology, Soil and Environmental Sciences. These degrees were both the foundation for my profession and the avenue for my understanding of Epidemiology and applied Statistics. During the past 10 years ... read more

I would consider my teaching style to be very organic and adaptable. I consider each student individually, and I evaluate what works best for that student in particular. I am trained in various forms of teaching, and I have a complete understanding of the various learning personalities and characteristics of students that I have worked with and will work with in the future.
I began mentoring students during my tenure at Regis High School, a private, full-scholarship-only high school in New York City at the age of 17. After attending Villanova University and Fordham University's Graduate School of Business Administration, I began tutoring part-time with Studypoint. I have tutored over 30 different students in nearly all academic areas, including SAT, ACT, ISEE, SSAT and Academic Programs for grades K-12.

My classroom lessons and activities are created around the belief that children learn best by doing. I choose to go beyond the traditional science classroom and provide a dynamic and engaging classroom environment focused on students. I choose to be the navigator, guiding students through the learning process, rather than being the process itself. By providing the support and encouragement, I hope that my students will move from being dependent on the instructor for information to being the seeker of knowledge. Regardless of their chosen path, every child will learn during their time with me and create a foundation of knowledge from which to build.
During my four years of college, I learned an extensive degree of time management. I was a full time biology student with an education certification attached, a softball player (captain for last two years), and a supervisor at a loc ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After studying medicine for 3 years in college I decided that I wanted to be a teacher. I was lucky enough to land a job where I taught both science and Math.I was a teacher for 3 years. I taught Algebra, Precalculus, Chemistry and Biology at the high school level.
I loved my time in the classroom helping children to love learning both math and science. I believe that all children can love those subjects although many find them difficult. It takes a patient person who loves to teach and learn themselves to teach the difficult processes of Math and science and that person is me.

I am dedicated to the belief that every child can succeed. This starts with developing a rapport with the student, engaging their interests, and using problem solving to emphasize talents that will build confidence and allow them to work independently to reach their potential. Secondly I believe that the student can develop specific skills that can help them master areas of difficulty as well as advanced subjects. Finally as someone who has worked in the science field I feel that the tools that science provides are tremendously empowering and seeing their transformative effect on all students is why I enjoy teaching.

More About This Tutor...

I love interacting, teaching, and talking to students. My pleasure comes from seeing the bright smile on a child's face when the confidently turn to me to let me know that they understand what I have taught them. I enjoy developing different strategies for a person to understand the material being learned based around their learning approach, whether they are visual or auditory learners. I like to find fun, simple methods to memorize material. I believe that various ways at understanding material make it quicker to master more information in the same amount of time. Extra help from me as a tutor can make a world of a difference as your child proceeds in his/her educational experience.

More About This Tutor...

I have BS degrees in education and industrial engineering. I also have an MS Teachers in Geosciences. I have worked for much of my career as an engineer but have also taught earth science at the high school level for two years in the recent past. I have great enthusiasm for the world we live in and the study of earth science. I look forward to working one on one with students that are having difficulty and helping them make the grade.
I believe a good teacher should have the following attributes. First, they should love their respective subject. Second, they should have real world experience that can tie to the lesson of the day. Third, they should understand the needs and desires of their students. Lastly, they must have a firm but fair method of classroom discipline. With the subject of earth science, I have the passion and experience to make a difference in your student's life.

Being a teacher in the middle school has given me the drive and the energy to pursue different avenues of the teaching and learning process. My passion for Science and for Math has given me an edge to make each lesson fun, adventurous, mind boggling and memorable for each child that I teach. What really keeps me going in this field is that it is never static. Education is truly dynamic, evolving and ever changing. This change alone gives me the push to go beyond what I only know but to keep on excelling through professional development, reading, research, collaboration and seminars and make sure that I share it 110% to those who would really benefit...our children, our future leaders of this world.
I never give up on a child. I also never push a child on any task that are really difficult for him or her. Time and patience is an important factor in teaching and tutoring. More ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would say that all people are capable of learning and improving their abilities, knowledge, and skill. My experience has been that if a child, youth, or adult is given the space in which to learn, and introduced to material in a patient manner, in the style that works for them (be that through explanation or visual learning, etc) they will take the initiative to learn and grow at the pace and direction which works for them. People are naturally inclined to learn and grow, and my experience is that when given the opportunity and supportive role of a teacher, they will become interested in learning and continue to do so.
