Learning Can be Easy and Fun!

I am very patient and I make sure the student thoroughly understands a topic before moving on. I motivate the student to succeed and teach good study skills and test taking skills. Normally, I use the student's textbooks and classroom materials during our lessons. For standardized tests, I use prep books, such as Princeton Review. Students do best when they are encouraged and receive positive feedback. My students are extremely satisfied after our lessons, and I receive wonderful feedback from children and adults I tutor.
For the past 10 years I have been tutoring, working with students and helping them in various subjects. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Binghamton University, SUNY in 2005.

More About This Tutor...

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 greatly enhance my understanding and knowledge of the English language and its grammatical effects. This has proven more helpful than anything else learned throughout my education, as the ability to accurately compose an idea is simply invaluable. Initially an English Education major for two years, I chose to shift solely towards language arts, though I still am delighted by children and love to interact with enthused students. I have two years of classroom observation activity, as well as several other experiences tutoring students from the ages of middle school all the way through the college level.
I have always enjoyed working with children and understanding their perceptions of the given subject matter. This often results in a personal, in- ... read more

More About This Tutor...

It is my belief that all students have the potential to learn. As a teacher, I am fully committed to the success of my students, all of my students. Children need to know that their teachers care about them. Once this trust has been established, education can begin. I like to take the time to get to know my students. If I can make learning relevant to the individual student, it will be much more effective. This means using material and content that interests the student, and finding out what motivates them to learn. In doing so, I can help my students be successful learners.
I have held several elementary level leave replacement positions, as well as a Part time reading position. I taught fifth grade in a NYC Public School for four years, and I presently work with preschoolers and toddlers on Long Island, with Bright Horizons. I have tutored students in readin ... read more

My teaching style is based around differentiating instruction to meet student's individual learning style. I enjoy teaching and once I am invovled with a student I dedicate myself to learning which, teaching, studying and learning strategies are best for each individual student. I am also a believer that a tutor/teacher need to constantly research to keep up with strategies and new scientific findings thst can be introduced into lesson plans and tutoring sessions. A teacher should be dedicated and knowledgeable and should teach with a caring touch and unbiased opinions. I strive to help students during these formidable years of adolescent growth so that they can learn how to learn and carry it into a successful academic career.

A Little Bit About Me...

I strongly belive in Differentiated Instruction. Every student, no matter what age, has their own learning style. Working toward learning what style (auditory, visual or by using manipulatives such as cards, tiles, etc.) works best for them is the key to success. Through patience and confience boosting your child can meet their potential.
I began tutoring Math and Spanish when I was sixteen. After seeing how I could help students ccelerate in Mathematics, it was the key to me staying in the teaching field. I began teaching at a Middle School right out of graduation and have loved it ever since. In college, I took a course which studied the programs of Microsoft Office and networking. I incorporate Microsoft Excel and Word programs into my Middle School Math curriculum every year to teach my students appropriate data display and how to write papers about Math. I won Rookie Teacher o ... read more
