As a non-traditional student I gave a good deal of thought as to what career to go into. I love working with students and enjoy providing an environment that is customized based on the student's individual learning style. I believe all students have a desire to succeed, but frequently struggling students have lost touch with that part of themselves. I would like to offer students an opportunity to reach their maximum potential. I have personally witnessed students transformed when they found a personal connection with the materials they are studying. I graduated with honors with my AA from ACCC and maintained a 3.4 at Stockton College. While in school as a non-trad. student I have been a full time sub. teacher at Mainland Regional and Ocean City High Schools subbing for 9 years.I have worked with students of all ability levels from the special needs to gifted students.

I would say that my teaching style is very interactive. Anyone can give instructions but I love feedback from a one on one situation as well as a group environment. I base alot of my instruction on analogies; when a person can relate an experience or another word to a term being tought, their understanding is broadened and 99% of the time embedded in the longterm memory. That to me is not only developing the ability to draw on a built up knowledge base, but also broadens ones ability to convey what has been learned. I have always wanted to teach. When I was a child I would round up the kids in my neighborhood and make them do lessons that I created. I do remember they did not like that. I went to college and earned a BS in Biology always knowing that I would eventually teach the sciences. I was an excellent student and have always found pride in myself on my ability to communicate w

I believe that education is continuous and requires participation by all involved parties, meaning students must be active and constant participants in their education as well as the teacher. I also understand that no two individuals learn in exactly the same manner causing my methods as a teacher to constantly change to best fit the needs of the individual. All students, children, adults, etc. can learn if given the right environment, support, and encouragement. My goal as a teacher is not only to educate but to give students the tools and knowledge with which to teach themselves in the future. My undergraduate degree of Communication allowed me to use my knowledge and skills of writing, editing, and publishing as a springboard towards my true passion of teaching and working with adolescents.

I work with the student's strengths to ascertain their learning style and then apply these to the area needing improvement. No one style will work for every child. Therefore, I work independently with each child's style and work to make a marked improvement in their success. As a full time tutor and academic coach, I have spent 1000+ hours privately tutoring, holding classes and teaching middle and high school to understand the many learning styles needed to achieve success. I possess an BA in English and an MBA in Human Resources. After 30 years in Corporate America, I retired early and returned to teaching, tutoring and coaching.

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined. I have over twenty years teaching in the public and private schools in New Jersey. I have taught English, Math, Social Studies, and Business. I am a NJ state certified teacher in

It's true that every student learns at a different pace with a different style. I like to see myself as a cameleon teacher, catering my format to individual needs. My style tends to be laid back so that students are comfortable expressing their likes and dislikes with me, curbing their fear of not understanding something. I love to use metaphors, pictures, examples and stories to illustrate the subject in a new and perhaps clearer way. I don't teach and run - I make sure the student understands before moving on to the next problem. I have them work through something in front of me so I can make sure they know what they're doing. And, finally - importantly - I keep a healthy, balanced sense of humor. My original plan was to major in Education, but decided to double major in school, then obtain my teaching certificate after graduation. Now, armed with two degrees and a desire to enter the

My philosophy of teaching is essentially helping students develop skills and insights in a supportive environment that they can use for a lifetime. For a student to be a skilled thinker and develop insight in any subject, he/she has to apply intellectual standards to access the information they receive in the classroom and eventually from the outside world. The teacher’s responsibility is to mold young minds by using a positive feedback mechanism to access the knowledge, skills, and more importantly the ability of students to apply their knowledge in a real life situation.

My greatest desire to is to work with others in a compassionate, empathetic manner. I believe that providing any assistance first begins with deeply listening and relating to the needs, concerns and hopes of another. Just as personalities and interests differ between individuals, learning styles can greatly vary. My goal as a tutor is to identify with each client and work together to achieve the best and most enjoyable lesson plan. I feel that I have succeeded when learning becomes a fun, interesting endeavor for both the student and tutor. I have always been a lifelong learner, and I see tutoring as an extension of my desire to consistently review and engage with all academic material. The liberal arts education that I received at Scripps College set the standard to appreciate and learn a variety of subjects. I received two bachelor degrees, BA in Art History and BA in French, but

My teaching style is based upon where the student is in terms of their educational level. I work very hard at understanding the student's academic needs. Then I assist the student in improving their educational skills in the subject being studied. I always emphasize the fact that everyone is capable of learning and that mastering the language of any academic discipline is part of becoming proficient in it. My educational background in the sciences [chemistry, medical biology, and medicine]. and music has enabled me to have a broad range of academic experiences. I specialize in instructional learning in the arts and sciences, specifically medicinal biology and music. Because I do scientific research and writing, I have skills related to the language arts as well as computer science. I have experience teaching and tutoring various subjects on all levels, from preschool to college.
