My experience in tutoring, substitute teaching, and being an elementary classroom teacher for over one year, my teaching experiences have helped me to instruct students in their learning endeavors. Also, through my love for writing and working on a book along with having an appetite for reading, these additional experiences have also helped me in instructing students in learning. Also I volunteered as a tutor in my local community and developing a summer reading program for our local library. In order to reach all students, a teacher must use a variety of teaching techniques to meet the various learning styles of the students and must therefore be both flexible and approachable. Teachers should work more as an aid or guide that facilitate the learning process, rather than as omnipotent instructors who attempt to force knowledge into the minds of their students. Information should not jus

My approach to teaching is more of a "why" approach. It is more important for students to know why something is or works rather than just how. This approach works well for middle and high school students. It allows students not only to understand the ideas taught but to apply them to other areas as well. I also like to use visual aids as well as conversation. I have found that many of us vary widely in learning styles. Some are visual learners, others are audio learners, and still others are a combination. I work well one-on-one but also enjoy small groups. I look forward to working with you or your children to produce results they can be proud of. I have a BS in business and can tutor in any business related fields. In addition, my original college major was physics. I can and have taught physics, math, (up to differential equations) and physical sciences. I have also been an ame

I love coaching and facilitating the learning process for students of all ages. As a tutor who has worked with elementary school children, teenagers, college students, and adults, I know that each person learns in his or her own way. I provide a focused approach that is combined with patience in order to arrive at the desired outcome – a positive, successful learning experience for the student. My educational background is well-rounded, which prepared me to tutor in a variety of subjects. For example, I demonstrated solid grammar and research/writing skills in order to successfully complete my B.S. in Human Resources Management and supplemented this degree with college coursework in Economics, Accounting, and Business Statistics. In addition, since 1998, my tutoring experience has included a variety of areas: Basic mathematics and reading at the elementary level, High school mathem

I am an upcoming May 2006 graduate from Allegheny College, majoring in English.

In high school, as well as in college, I have tutored students anywhere from the middle school level to the high school level in all subjects.

As a student myself, I know how difficult it is to learn academics by one person’s particular teaching style. I believe that you must teach by finding out your students’ interests and use those to introduce examples—this helps the student relate. I’ve learned to try out different teaching styles with my students to help me figure out the best way for them to learn. Once that is mastered, I will continue working with that particular style. I get very excited when students make progress and I have a positive approach to teaching, for example if a student does something correct or to the best of their ability I will acknowledge their success. It makes me happy to know that I could help a student succeed. I’m a graduate from the University of Pittsburgh (2009) with a B.S. in Business Administration. After graduation, I realized my true calling while working at my YMCA in our Chi

Teaching has always been a passion for me, but I have learned over the years that each individual has a unique way of learning. The job of a teacher is to find the channel into that learning style. Tutoring proides the perfect opportunity to focus on one student at a time and asses his or her personal needs and style. I would enjoy the one-on-one aspect of tutoring and hope that I could provide a relaxed and fun atmosphere along with a high level learning experience. Teaching has been an integral part of my life from graduate school to today. I taught English 1 and 2 as a graduate student at both WVU and Franciscan University of Steubenville. From 1991-1999, I was Director of Religious Education at two different churches. My responsibilites included developing programs and teaching students of all ages as well as adults.

I have earned two degrees, a Bachelor of Arts in English and a Master of Arts in Education. I not only successfully completed two teaching internships in Manhattan's public schools, but I have also taught in Brooklyn's Middle and High Schools. I am currently employed as a substitute teacher in the Pennsylvania's Pine-Richland and North Hills School districts and look forward to further opportunities to help students achieve their potential. My teaching style is very student-centered; I not only actively seek to engage students in my curriculum, but I also seek to help foster their love of learning. I firmly believe in differentiating my instruction to accommodate my student's various learning strengths and styles, and in pursuit of this goal I utilize educational supplements as integral parts of my curricula. I also am a firm believer in the usefulness of learning standards as a
