Lydia Tutors

I have experience with differentiated instruction which has helped a lot in my tutoring business. I help my students find their unique learning style and then use that style in my lessons. For example, a couple of my students are kinesthetic (hands-on) learners so I use flashcards, coins, and other manipulatives to help them master math skills.
I have Five (plus) years of professional tutoring experience specializing in English and Elementary Math. I have three years of substitute teaching experience, during which time I worked with students in grades 1-6. I also have three years of full-time classroom teaching experience, during which time I taught 3rd, 5th, and 1st grades. In the two years since I left the classroom, I have become a homeschool evaluator, test administrator, and tutor.

Literature is one of my top subjects!

I've tutored students throughout my entire student career. I am still taking classes toward my bachelor's degree in journalism. I was always excellent with math throughout high school even though my major does not require it now. /my strong points obviously lean toward writing but I love to help with math studies as well. In high school, I tutored the course recovery students every day on which ever subject they needed help with. I've also tutored classmates in college with their classes such as college algebra, English, reading, and other basic classes required if testing does not fulfill the requirement.

Brown University ACT Tutor-35 on English and Reading

I am a relaxed, patient tutor. I mainly teach specific strategies and "game plans" that I can tailor to each student's needs. When I was taking the ACT, it calmed my nerves knowing that I had set steps to follow that would help me reach my goal. Additionally, because I suffer from ADHD and have overcame the obstacles it has presented, I know extremely helpful ways to make studying easier for ADHD students.
I have tutored students from my local high school and elementary school. Not only that, but I have also proofread essays and assisted in the college essay writing process. Throughout my life, I have been an avid reader and writer, always excelling in my classes. Furthermore, my writing has been published online and in the newspaper, as I was the communication lead of my high school's Lemelson MIT InvenTeam. Furthermore, I have taken the ACT fairly recently, and believe that m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I try to make each lesson unique for my various learners. I have been known to teach in historical clothing, using props from the time period and a smattering of words in other languages. I also incorporate hands on learning such as crafts and some food making. I believe if a method is not working for my students, I change my approach. I also teach in language they are able to understand since their vocabulary is much different than what we spoke in 1970 as well as referneces current to them. I have found Tupoc Shakur's poetry is more well received than Shakespeare with todays youth.
I am a former Social Worker from the Foster Care system. I realized thern I wanted to work with children, but more as an educator.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Lynn University, I am very much driven to help students excel in Academics. I work for a grant funded program called, Upward Bound which I work and mentor high school students in the pursuit of going to to post-secondary education. I mentor students in financial aid, homework assistance, essay, reference letters, procedures how to get into college..I have also tutored students in reading, science, math, English, psychology.
I believe all students can learn if they put their mind into it and have someone supporting them in their efforts. I like to mentor/tutor outside the box, by being creative in my approach, for example: showing them math by painting and measuring, or baking..It helps the student realize that education is everywhere in life..It is not something that is only used in a classroom.

More About This Tutor...

For me, teaching and tutoring are a 'passion'. My personnel belief is that education is paramount in our lives and should be accessible to everyone regardless of one's ability to learn. With the tutor's patience, enthusiasm, dedication and encouragement many students reach a level that at the onset they did not believe they could achieve. In my opinion, there exists nothing as rewarding than passing on to a child or young/older adults the love of learning.
As a teacher, trainer and volunteer tutor for the ProLiteracy America program. I have been and continue to be focus on fostering education and learning for young and adult learners. I earned a BA in Psychology, an MA in Organizational Management and presently, I am attending Capella University in their PhD program in Education and HR Management. The previous and present experiences have and continue to enrich me with extensive g ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Since 2001, I have been teaching and tutoring children ages 5-18. As a high school teacher, I taught 10th grade Global Studies and US Government. As a GED Instructor, I prepared my students by teaching lessons in Math, English, Social studies, and Science. Privately, I have been tutoring since 2006, I also worked for The Learning Shop, Inc. from January 2008 to September 2010. While tutoring I helped students with their homework as well as prepared them for class, city, and state exams.
I have never seen teaching or tutoring as just a job. To teach a child is to give him/her the gift of knowledge. I am energetic, creative, and most importantly patient. Children need a guide to learning and anything is possible. Study skills and structure are very important. I hope to make a difference in all the lives of the children I work with.
