The most important thing when working one-on-one with a student is to find out the best ways that student learns. Patience is important, as is humor. In 20 years of teaching experience I have tutored students of all ages, different socio-economic backgrounds and intellectual abilities, as well as in a wide variety of subjects. I have tutored in four public school systems, in private practice with with adults who needed help to prepare for tests and for adults who either wanted to study for their own enrichment or to advance in the corporate world.

The educators in VN were very tough. Call it tough love. While I learned a great deal, I always felt "abused" by the teachers (nuns). Many times during the school week, I came home with red markings on my face or hands. I take a softer approach. If you get a child excited, he/she will learn best! Human nature loves to play so if games can somehow be integrated into learning, voila! My nieces and nephews all asked their parents to have me teach them. Adult learners are no different. They too will respond appropriately if the lessons can be tied to their everyday experiences. Children and adult learners have one wish in common - a need to be in a safe and nurturing learning environment, where they can learn without being yelled at. That is what I will provide. I was born and raised in Vietnam. My parents wanted me to have the best education possible. As such, they sent me to the finest sch

As a Research Scientist in Corporate America, I took the opportunity to focus on enhancing the math and science education of high, middle, and elementary school students. In addition to hands-on classroom activities, I was involved in the Program In Rochester to Interest Students in Science and Math (PRISSM), judged Science Fairs and Science Competitions. Because of my goal of enhancing student achievement, I have taught Chemistry at the Junior College level for the past eight years. I love the appreciation of English Literature and English Grammar as well and so, upon retirement, have taught French and Latin to students in middle school and high school. The word student comes from the Latin to be eager, and I love to instill the love of learning, n eagerness to learn, in children. The education or drawing out of a child's mind is the ultimate goal, and doing so in a disciplined yet

• As a NESCAC undergraduate, I explored many areas of study. In addition to earning a BA in English and American Literature while completing a minor in African Studies, I also became fluent in French through study, travel, and teaching. My first teaching experiences were in high school, when I choreographed musicals and tutored a young Chinese boy in English. In college, I co-instructed a drum circle. Finally, this past summer I worked as a Residential Advisor at the Middlebury-Monterey Language Academy. In this position I was an academic advisor, a social mediator, and a confidante. In addition to formal tutoring, my strong writing skills have attracted peers in need of a second opinion on their work since high school. As someone who was enthralled with literature and learning at a young age, I truly enjoy guiding young people through their learning processes. I believe that everyone ha

Between my studies at Roberts Wesleyan College in the liberal arts field, where I earned a bachelors degree, and my studies in math and computational science I have an exceptionally broad knowledge base. My work experience further illustrates this having worked briefly as an English teacher in Prague as well as the various sales and customer service jobs I have had including Verizon Wireless, Wegmans, and Radio Shack. I love working with people and teaching them about the things that I am passionate about. I am very patient and throughout and I have learned a lot of valuable techniques such as asking the right questions to confirm that the student has learned the lesson as well as planning out what the important points are that I need to cover. I also try to illustrate points using a variety of learning styles that over time I can customize to individual students.

I enjoy children and learning together with them. I find the world a wonderful place and enjoy sharing the splendors of creation with young people. It is natural for me to work one-on-one with children as I have done for many years as a homeschool mom. I am convinced that reading and writing are key to developing the thinking process, and believe that learning to express oneself clearly and accurately within the marvelous grammatical system we have inherited is a great asset. At the same time, there is great delight and creativity unleashed through imagination. Books open these doors for us. As a music educator, I have worked in a variety of settings, most recently for 23 years at the Hochstein School of Music teaching group classes of children, ages 2 years through 11 part time. I addition, I home-schooled my own four children over the course of 21 years, covering all subject areas,

I have earned two Masters degrees in education as well as National Boards Certification. My GPA has been between 3.5 and 4.0 for all semesters. I have gained distinguished educator each year for the last 18 and proficient all the years prior during my 28 year teaching career. I have proven success with students as I boast that all my students have passed state tests in all curriculum areas. My philosophy around human learning and knowledge retention involves relationships. Human beings are connected to each other and to all wisdom. Establishing healthy and loving relationships with students and their families facilitates that all key players gain knowledge and are afforded the opportunity to develop deep understandings of concepts taught, increase retention time and improve retrieval. I embrace the National Boards for Professional Teaching Standards five core propositions. The first

My teaching style.... depends on the day, depends on the students, depends on the topic. One minute I can be dancing around the room and the next we're having a more serious discussion. My expectations are very high and I always push my students to do "just a bit better" than they think they can at that moment. At the end of the day, a lot of "just a bit better"'s add up to a whole lot! I wholeheartedly believe that each student has a potential that is limited only to their current experience--giving them new opportunities and showing them not only what they can do but what the world has to offer them... this can change a kid's life! I have been teaching for 21 years now (wow, that's gone by fast!) and I love every second of what I do. I have also been a tutor in the district for the past 9 years, tutoring every subject possible--math, English, Social Studies, etc. I enjoy tutorin

Languages, accounting and math are all about learning the rules, applying the rules and then learning new situations to use them. I try to find out how a student learns and mold my teaching to satisfy their learning style whether that is visual or graphic. I believe that everyone wants to do good work. Someone who is struggling with a subject area just hasn’t found a way to relate the subject to their background or learning style. I find ways to resonate with the student (worksheets, games/activities, etc.), find successes and then continue the learning. I am patient, caring and keep my interactions with students positive at all times. I strive to preserve the dignity of my students in all interactions. I have been a teacher of French and English and a financial analyst/managerial accountant. I bring an element of teaching to all the work I have done. I find ways to make things u
