Exquisite Tutor Available

I am a certified English teacher for grades 7-12. I have been a one-on-one tutor for more than five years. In those years, I have worked with students from Kindergarten through college on such subjects as ESL, English, History, Art and Italian. I develop specific lessons based on my students' needs and interests and I also help with teacher-assigned work. I have been a classroom teacher for grades 7, 10, 11 and 12.
I help with whatever homework is assigned by the teacher. I also develop my own lessons based on the needs and interests of my students. I ALWAYS try to keep them entertained and excited about their learning.

My comments on tutoring Geography : For three summers, I taught geography to gifted middle school students for Johns Hopkins.

Students being tutored one-on-one deserve lessons customized to their learning style. My sessions often incorporate some writing and topic discussion along with activities tailored to the student's interests, skill development needs and preferences.
This is my fourth year tutoring middle and high school students in History and Government. I also have professional classroom teaching experience and volunteer elementary school teaching experience. My students, primarily Global History, World History and European History students, have raised their class grades, passed the Regents exam by many points and earned high scores on the AP. I specialize in both content acquisition and essay writing skills. Some students have worked with me for half a year or more, others for a month or two before cumulative exams.

Structured yet creative Reading Specialist.

My teaching style is very structured due to my training, however, I can be extremely creative and motivating with the most challenging students!
I received my bachelor degree in elementary education. After having my two daughters, I went to graduate school and achieved a masters degree as a Reading Specialist. I was a graduate assistant and taught in a learning center for two years while earning my masters degree. Upon graduation I was an adjunct professor at C.W. Post, taught reading at a private school, a public school and then worked full time managing the reading department In an elementary school for eighteen years. During that time I had the opportunity to teach a support before school program, summer literacy as the lead teacher, creating my curriculum and a Saturday Academy in the middle school teaching study skills and test prep.

My comments on tutoring Geography : I am very interested in teaching geography.

Business executive looking to assist elementary and high school children with their studies. I am a voracious reader and a life-long learner. I like children, have had exposure to tutoring before, enjoyed it immensely, was very good at it (in the sense that the children enjoyed my friendly manner and enjoyed the learning experience) and would like to help children remedy deficiencies and perhaps even learn how to enjoy learning as much as I do.
Friendly, non-threatening, clear and accomplishment-oriented.

All Politics is Local

Socratic
The Thrill of the Teacher teaching his material is his repetition in the work, further gaining mastery over what he is covering. Often times its the student who is teaching more to the teacher, than the teacher could ever teach to all his students. With that experience, however comes greater opportunities along the way.

A Little Bit About Me...

I try to be as personable as possible with students in order to make the learning experience fun and engaging. Teaching is truly an art. In order to succeed, a teacher must not only know the material cold, but he must also be able to relate to his students in order for the material to sink in.
As a Georgetown University graduate with a degree in government, I have extensive knowledge of various social sciences which I plan on taking to law school. In addition, I am a near-native speaker of Italian and am proficient in Spanish. I have a passion for both languages, and would love to be able to share that passion with students. I tutored students extensively throughout high school and currently tutor students in a variety of subjects.

I have always enjoyed working with children and understanding their perceptions of the given subject matter. This often results in a personal, in-depth level of conversation normally not available to most students. It has only been about five years since I was a high school student myself, and I find that it is generally very easy for me to communicate with students on a personal level, as a friend rather than from a distance as only a hired instructor. Still, I handle tutoring lessons appropriately, am always very considerate of a parent's requests and am still certain to push a student to make sure he or she makes the grade rather than to simply entertain them for an hour or two without preparing them for their academic responsibilities.
Having had pursued a BA in English, not only did I focus on the course material within each class, but even more importantly, I managed to great ... read more

I currently hold my MA in history. During my studies I have earned an in depth knowledge of research methods, rhetorical writing, and have become well versed in study methods. My writing skills are near flawlessness and I stress this important skill in my every day life. In addition, I am currently learning both Spanish and French in hopes of improving my chances of entering a doctoral program. During my MA work I privately tutored students in History, English Literature, and Spanish.
My years of studying and tutoring have given me the patience and kindness to work with both my peers, mentors, and children. I have a free-flowing personality and I am not easily shaken. I look for challenges in my every day life and welcome new ideas and criticisms so that I can not only improve myself, but those around me. I do not believe that "some people can not learn," but I do believe th ... read more

I believe all children can learn, but in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate.
