A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned my Liberal Arts & Science degree. I am attempting to get my bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering. Obtaining the degree has allowed me an understanding of cultures, concept and function of culture, and major developments in western civilization. I can read, write, and communicate in analytical forms and document outside sources. It allows me to work with mathematical tools and technology to solve problems such as having to analyze and solve them numerically, graphically and symbolically. I have gained an intermediate level in Spanish. Through high school and college, I have tutored high school students and college students in mathematics and have tutored middle school students in math, science, and language arts.
I believe in order for success a student has to understand the basics in order to solve increasingly complicated problems in school. When tutoring ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel children are very self-aware and are very vulnerable to positive and negative feedback. Therefore, no matter how little progress is made, praise them. If no progerss is made or if an issue needs to re-addressed, praise them..."That was great, but let's try it this way!" I feel that you are positive, smiling, and they believe that you believe in them, 9 out of 10 kids will follow you!
I was more of an instructor than a teacher. I was a day camp counselor at Solway House parent/child resort in Saugerties N.Y. I instructed kids how to swim, dive, play various sports and gave dancing lessons to the guests. As a high school student I tutored 7th and 8th graders in an after school community center. I was one of a few staff at the University of Connecticut to instruct graduates and staff in the use of the various electronic facilites available to them.

I understand that finding the right tutor can be confusing and time consuming. My specialty is to offer a customized experience to each student. I recently graduated 'Summa Cum Laude' from Eastern CT State University with a BS in Business Administration. My primary experiences has been in with high school and college students tutoring in more difficult subjects such as, Chemistry, Statistics, Physics, Geometry, Calculus, etc. However, I have worked with students of all ages.
My experiences have taught me that a cookie-cutter teaching style is not suitable for every individual. My responsibility is to quickly identify the students weaknesses and turn them into their STRENGTH! I am a every interactive teacher. It is my strong belief that anyone can succeed with the proper motivation, reinforcement and tools. My tutoring style emphasizes the student as an active participan ... read more

A diverse education at Wesleyan University has prepared me to tutor many high school subjects. I earned my BA at Wesleyan in Music but I almost double majored in Environmental Science. The high expectations of professors at Wesleyan pushed me to greatly improve my writing ability, with my music thesis earning me honors in music. Environmental sciences sharpened my science and mathematic ability. Extensive courses in music prepared me to tutor music students in any background or concentration.
I greatly enjoy finding a way to inspire a child to understand the problem at hand. Through from my experience in grade school and my observation of students that attend tough schools I've realized the monotonous class schedule and disciplinary philosophy of most schools deflates most student's desire to succeed. While I can relate to this rebellious reaction I also know that it is no ex ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I not only enjoy teaching and training individuals, but also have been successful with training large groups of employees. I generally create manuals, which parallel a PowerPoint presentation used during the actual training session. I have also taught piano to children and adults, from beginners to advanced levels.
Throughout my career, I have utilized my writing, research, analysis, and presentation skills to develop and conduct training programs, write manuals, and deliver presentations to all levels of management and staff. Specifically, I have written an "Effective Business Writing Manual" for employees who had been identified as needing basic grammar and writing skills. I have also written training materials for legal purposes, including, E-Discovery.

A Little Bit About Me...

I teach people to learn and find answers on their own. I guide the student through exercises in any field and try to avoid straight memorization by putting the subject is some kind of context. I keep up with current trends and technology and can use that to aid in relationships and teaching.
I studied education at Montclair State University for 4 years but I have a always been a teacher. From leadership roles in high school to corporate training, I have a talent for being able to boil subjects down to their basics and provide true understanding. My strongest subjects are Math, Music, and Literature. I can also do work in Science, English and Humanities/Social Studies.

A Little Bit About Me...

Education is invaluable and needs to be made accessible to all students. My goal as a teacher is to create an excellent environment for learning, providing the student an opportunity to excel in his/her studies. My prior teaching experiences have taught me the importance of organization, patience and using varied teaching methods to reach students with different learning strengths. I will provide your child with individual attention, customized session plans, encouragement and positive reinforcement to reach the personalized learning goals that we will set together. My hope is that while learning required material, each student will realize his/her personal abilities, gain confidence and increase his/her appreciation for education.
In the nine years of my graduate and undergraduate education, I have been a teacher, tutor and mentor. As an undergraduate, I was the math and scie ... read more

More About This Tutor...

People who've seen me teach describe me as relaxed, focused, and funny. For better or worse (I like to think better), I believe in age appropriate humor as part of an overall teaching philosophy. I also tend to be lively. But the bottom line is that we all understand our goals and reach them. When I walk into a classroom or even a solo session, I want to know what the student(s) needs are. I believe in teaching to the goals and then even exceeding them. At the same time, I'm not rigid at all. There are many ways to hit the target. Students come in all shapes, sizes, and moods. As a teacher, I need to accommodate that.
I am currently self-employed as a computer software trainer. My practice includes clients as well as groups. As part of my work, I'm currently an adjunct professor at 2 local community colleges. I'm also a Sunday school teacher at my local congregation. I've been ... read more
