Social Studies Tutor Available

I taught social studies in Ocean County from 1994 - 2002. I have been a school administrator since 2002. I have experience with both high school and middle school curriculum. I believe in trying to instill a love of learning with every student I meet. Every lesson I taught encouraged students to read, research, write and speak aloud. I want my students to be confident, compassionate problem-solvers.

My comments on tutoring Geography : I have traveled extensively throughout the United states and Europe. As an historian of the world , I have studied the geography of the world's continents from a political and human perspective. College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have helped many students to succeed academically. I am patient and understanding.

I have been teaching college (History, Philosophy, Ethics, writing, reading, social studies) since the early 1980's. I have taught in New York (LaGuardia Community College), Connectiuct (Three Rivers Community College), New Jersey (Mercer County Community College) and Pennsylvania (Bucks County and Montgomery County Community Colleges and ). I have also taught online (University of Phoenix, DeVry University and The Iowa Consortium of Community Colleges). I have tutored many college and high school students, as well as grammar school students. I have taught several test preparation classes and helped many students to raise their test scores.
In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that incl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Since 2000, I have tutored students of all levels in a variety of subjects. During my undergraduate studies, I earned a BA in communication (public relations) and specialized in political science. At that time, I was trained through 4H America Reads to teach young, multilingual students how to read. While not tutoring, I practice criminal law. My job requires me to write and speak to an array of audiences each day. I also make appearances at local schools and libraries for presentations. Contact me if you need help with any project or report, reading, writing, vocabulary, business, government and study skills.
I began tutoring K through 5th graders at an elementary school. Many of my students only spoke Spanish at home. From then, I continued tutoring elementary school students with a wide range of abilities. A few of my students were gifted, and we worked on sharpening their alre ... read more

I have been a tutor for peers and for grade levels below me since I was in the 9th grade. It began as a volunteer project, and slowly developed over time into part time work through college and medical school. I have learned that I am very passionate about teaching young minds about the importance and advantages of a strong basic education. It brings me satisfaction to be able spend time with individuals who are in need of some guidance, and I am able to offer this guidance, and therefore make a difference in their educational path.
I love to teach all different age groups, ranging from kindergarden to adults. My teaching style is relaxed and I believe in offering guidance through the learning process. I don't believe in forcing an individual. Instead, I like to guage each student's baseline, and proceed from there. I believe that each child has a right to a proper education ... read more

Considering my extensive experience as an Elementary Teacher, Basic Skills Teacher, In-Class Support Teacher, ABA Instructor, and Recreational Professional, I feel I am highly qualified to tutor. As a past Pre-school Inclusion Teacher and an ABA Home Instructor/Parent Consultant, I have become familiar with the “High Scope” curriculum as well as assessing and evaluating students. My positions as a basic skills teacher in Toms River and Lakewood have helped me to develop various methods in teaching skills in oral language, phonological awareness, shared reading, comprehension, and writing in preparation for the NJ Ask tests.
I believe an outstanding teacher should be intelligent, creative, motivated and caring. She/he also needs to realize that each child is unique with various levels of potential. One must think "outside-the box," continue with ongoing education, and above all ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Currently, I am a graduate student pursuing a degree in Urban Education with a specialization in English as a Second Language. My undergraduate degree is in English. For the past two years I've been working as a substitute teacher while working on my degree. Recently, I have volunteered as a tutor for English Language Learners.
As an ESL instructor, I understand the special needs ELLs require as they learn a new language. I have had experience with students from various backgrounds and have implemented different learning approaches for each individual student. I always aim to create lessons and learning strategies that are specific to a student's needs. I see my role as a facilitator who is there to help students learn and understand their subjects the way that best suits the student's learning style.

A Little Bit About Me...

I attended the College of Saint Elizabeth in Morristown, NJ earning a dual degree in Elementary Education and Psychology. After completing my degrees I earned two certificates in Elementary and Special Education. During my time at college I also spent time in leadership positions, which readied me for becoming a classroom teacher. I began teaching multiply handicapped students to read, speak and use non-verbal communication skills. My education helped me to develop a pre-school handicapped program at Matheny School. I used my experience with pre-school handicapped to work in a summer program that benefitted students with basic skills needs. In Union Township I have taught both Middle School and High School Science and History.
I am a teacher because I enjoy hard work and helping student to feel successful. I want my students to experience meaningful, interesting learning th ... read more

I have earned my bachelor degree from College of New Jersey. I have been on the Dean's List twice in my three years at college. Even though it was a four year degree I graduated in three years. This college gave me the skills and understanding in elementary education and I was employed three months after graduation. I have taught Kindergaten thru Fourth grade with special needs students. I have also tutored during the summer months.
I have taught for six years and have loved every minute of teaching. It is a joy to see children enjoying the love of learning. I beleive all children can be taught, but each in his or her own way. No one way is the best way and I have often told my students that there is more than one way to find an answer. My students loved to do hands on projects and I tried to encoroporate them into every subjec.

I am a recent graduate from William Paterson University with a BA in Early Childhood Education (P-3) with certification in Elementary Education (K-5). I feel it's important for children to establish a life-long love of learning from a young age. I believe children are curious about how things work and where they come from. Therefore, it is important to promote a sense of wonder and curiosity through hands-on materials. Elementary students need a structured learning atmosphere that is developmentally appropriate. It is important to use a variety of teaching methods and strategies in order to establish lessons, activities, and instructions that are reasonable to each individual's developmental standing.
I believe it is extremely important to build a relationship with each student that I work with. Understanding each individual's skills and abilities helps differentiate instruction to ... read more

I focus on starting small and helping the student develop on their own. For example, when I teach how to write a strong essay, we write many drafts of an introduction. Then, we write many drafts of body paragraphs. Last, we would focus on writing a conclusion. Then, by working seperately on all of an essay's parts, the combined product is much stronger. The art of teaching is similiar to building a house: you start with an idea, then a foundation, and finally the framework.
I volunteered at the Ocean County Library writing center for four years and helped my peers construct, organize, and layout essays. I also proofread, edited, and helped in the creative process of their essays. I am curreently working part-time at Ocean County Library (Lakewood Branch) tutoring k-12 students after school in the S.M.A.R.T kids program.

More About This Tutor...

I have taught three different grade levels including ten years in kindergarten, three years in second grade and one year in third grade. My teaching experience has included both the private and the public sectors. During these years I also tutored children in my own class that were struggling or students that were referred to me by other teachers. My highest concentration was in the language arts and math.
I like to gear my teaching style to the student's learning style and interests. It is important to me that a child develops a love for learning early in their academic career. In order to promote this they must feel a level of success. The younger children respond better when learning is fun and appears to be more of a game than a chore. The best compliment a child gave me was when he said I was the best teacher because I liked being with him. The greatest compliment a parent gav ... read more
