A Little Bit About Me...

In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry.
I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosop ... read more

My comments on tutoring Spelling : I am an editor at a publishing firm in Manhattan.

I have over ten years of experience writing and editing creative and argumentative work. During and after graduate school, I taught composition, creative writing, American and world literature at liberal arts colleges and junior college throughout the south. When I moved to New York, I continued to write and edit, working with numerous authors in librarianship, international studies, and argumentation theory. I am most qualified to assist motivated high school and college students in any area of writing composition and introductory literature.
I have a laid-back, respectful attitude toward students, with my primary interest being their successful understanding of the subject area. As well as being a valuable tool in the workplace, writing is fun and rewarding; I want students to see the benefits of writing without feeling burdened.

Lifelong learner wants to help!

Hello All, I am currently a 3rd grade teacher in a ICT classroom in Brooklyn,NY. I truly enjoy educating children and helping them develop a greater understanding of different concepts. I am into my 4th year of teaching. I am highly dedicated and motivated teacher who is willingly to go above and beyond to help children succeed.
Patience is a true virtue! When teaching children, patience has to be presence. I have learned through my experience, a calm environment with a patience and observant teacher who is willing to try to understand how the child learns, goes a long way because all children are not the same; therefore, they do not learn in the same manner.

Environmental Journalist to help with reading and writing

I like to help people learn about English by exploring their interests. For example, if you are a fan of economics we can read The Economist and discuss world politics. If you prefer to talk about animals we can create an entire English lesson plan around that. I can also help with creative writing and essay writing
I am an environmental reporter based in New York. My articles have appeared in New Scientist, Scientific American, Psychology Today, Popular Science, OnEarth Magazine and Smart Planet. I was also a copy editor with a large publishing house for two years where I used my spelling and grammar skills to fact check and proof read manuscripts. I love to travel and learn about people and the world and spent two years living in Paris, France where I was an English tutor to French children and adults. I also co-host a podcast about fairy tales called Tabled Fables. Each month ... read more

A highly compassionate and committed educator.

Ever since I began working in NYC public schools seven years ago as a licensed Paraprofessional, I became passionate about teaching while continuously learning and developing my methods of instruction working with multi-culturally diverse students with various needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

Creative. I try to make learning fun. I believe that the problem is that kids don't find learning fun so they don't want to do it.
I've been tutoring my classmates, neighbor's kids & friends for a long time in specified subjects and with specific assignments. My speciality is a tie between Social Studies and English. My favorite moment is when they get that look in their eyes when they finally understand something and say "Oh! I get it now!"
