I love educating others and teaching others to teach themselves. I believe each one of us has a specific learning style that needs to be discovered and emphasized for maximum learning potential. The responsibility of an educator is to understand learning differences and make sure to use learning tools that best suites the student. Without this knowledge, many smart and capable children will be left behind and not given the resources they deserve. This is why I love the process of learning and learning how to be a learner!

A Little Bit About Me...

I loved working with the students in the Mission Acceptance program. I worked as a team leader, so I had the opportunity to work with a group of fellow mentors as well as students, which provided me experience with a variety of different students. I learned that each student has his or her own path to understanding the material and needs to be approached in a unique way. I find that in order to bring out the best in each student, one must understand how he or she receives information and plan accordingly.
I earned my BS in physics and spent over a year working on medical device research. As an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh I spent some time in the Physics Undergraduate Lab helping students in the introductory courses. I also spent time as a Team Leader for Mission Acceptance, a program that pairs successful college students with local high school students and provid ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have written curricula and taught/tutored students of all ages and backgrounds for twenty-five years. As an English high school teacher in Harlem, NYC, I taught students how to write essays, concentrating on the research paper. I have tutored ESL. I have taught verbal SAT prep. I taught computer software and administration (building such departments) for many years at some of the largest international law firms in the world.
I am patient, confident and intent on building confidence. We all have the ability to learn; that some subjects come easier to others has nothing to do with our individual abilities. When teaching essay writing, the most difficulty students have is forming a narrow thesis statement. Their next challenge is to write 3 or 4 statements following their thesis, which is what they will prove in essay form. I use simplicity in approach. I build confidence. I also us ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Because of my profession, I have developed a talent for simplifying and explaining complex ideas. I have also learned over the years that math is a language, and should be taught as one. So it is my approach to first understand a student’s way of thinking and processing problems. I can then help them merge new mathematical concepts into their point of view. It is a matter of patience and flexibility, of which I have acquired from my years of experience. I have yet to face a student I could not help.
I have always had a love for math and science. In college I shared that enthusiasm by tutoring classmates in calculus, physics and chemistry while earning a BS in Industrial Engineering. I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer in the pilot of the now nationally acclaimed “The Algebra Project.” This program introduced a new approach to teaching kids algebra. I have since applied my tech ... read more

The task is to create relevancy in a lesson plan. In order to bring relevancy to a topic teachers must be willing/able to determine each student's individual learning style. Not everyone learns the same way. Therefore, not everyone should be taught the same way. It is important to know the strengths, weakness, and interests of a student in order to create connections with the material, delivery, and instructor.
My first experience teaching was as a counselor at an ESL Summer Academy. After graduating, in 2008, I accepted a position as an instructional assistant at a High School in Storrs, Connecticut.

As a student who has dabbled in so many areas, it is easy for me to assess when a teacher/professor is not explaining a concept in a method that helps the students. I have previous experience tutoring, but my teaching talent comes from my role as the unofficial tutor for most of my classes. I can see why students are missing the concept and I am creative enough to devise new approaches.

My personal teaching philosophy is that there is no teaching without learning. Most classroom studies are at least partly removed from their intended application, for reasons of assuring comprehensive competency and because of the educational structure, i.e. attending school comes in advance of and separately from applying one’s knowledge. However, learning a language,for example and especially while living in it has both a need for constant practice and occasion for immediate application. The broader linguistic community has thusly prioritized practical teaching methods, of which I wish to avail myself.
