My comments on tutoring Elementary Phonics : I have taught elementary phonics for thirty years in various grades from Kindergarten to sixth grade.

I use a combination of both online games and Websites and hands-on manipulatives. First, I like for the student to take multiple intelligence tests and then I know how best to help the student. The information I gain from the analysis is extremely informative. It tells me where the students' strengths lie such as some students are musically inclined, some are visual learners, auditory learners, some are mathematicians and various other styles. Then, the style that they learn through the best is how I would teach the student; this is based on Gardner's Multiple Intelligence. Second, meeting the standards are essential in today's education system. The four C's of the 21st century is also necessary for students' to learn. They are collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity.
I have tutored in both Robeson County and Cumberland County for a total of six years. I ... read more

My lessons are creative and are formed in alignment with the PA standards to provide my students with significant progress in the classroom. I believe it's important to understand the different learning styles and strengths that students bring to the classroom. As my teaching career continues, I am becoming more flexible in my teaching strategies for example, when it comes down to having two or three subjects to teach in one period, I still manage to make it a great learning environment for all. It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability to be a compassionate, enthusiastic, intelligent teacher who will make a positive contribution to your program.

What tools I use in the classroom really depends on the student's learning style and course material. Some individuals learn by performing tasks, while others learn by reading or hearing the material to be learned.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a strong business background, with an MBA, CPA, and CIA. However, as a student at Susquehanna University, I also volunteered at least 2 days a week at a local preschool where I helped teach the students. In addition, I worked at a local elementary after-school program 2 days a week. I am currently pursuing my teaching certification through Drexel University.
While I enjoy business, working with children is my passion, hence why I am pursuing my teaching certification. I believe the best way to teach students any skill is to let them have hands on experience with it. As an example, in order to learn business skills, students need to practice the skills and understand their relevance in the real world.

My teaching style has derived from the many experiences that I have encountered. My student teaching experiences involved all grade levels K-12 and my current job involves grade levels 9-12 and 1st grade. I have also had the oppertunity to work with special needs students and gifted students. I enjoy teaching and working with all grade levels.

I am flexible with scheduling, innovative with learning, and positive that every student has the potential to be a success. I believe that good teachers go above and beyond for their student's and I am willing to do whatever is necessary so that your child reaches their goals.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching comes naturally to me and I adore children. I am fascinated by the way they learn and believe each child has their own path on which they must tread to find success. It's my job to help your child find his/her own path, feel successful, and build on those feelings of confidence to ensure success in the future. I have a nurturing style mixed with humor, however, I do hold students accountable and maintain high standards. I find it extremely effortless to relate to children of all ages. There is not too much that's more rewarding than helping a child find success in academics, for it is the foundation of a lifetime of confidence.

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. As an undergraduate, I participated in a Writing Fellowship, which allowed me to meet with students to work on their writing. Through this individualized tutoring style, I developed an appreciation for working one-on-one with students and peers, and began to develop a highly personal, creative style of tutoring. Over the course of my teaching experience, I have found that students learn best when they are comfortable yet appropriately challenged. It is my goal to distinguish the learning style of each individual student that I work with and from there, develop a plan to meet their goals.

I have been a mentor and advisor for my two younger brothers for several years. My friends and collegues have benefited from both job placements and higher education advisement. I am attentive to peoples needs, very easy going, and have an abundance of patience. I do believe that key essential ingredients of a childs nuturing, from birth, are essential for the natural environment they will eventually encounter.
