I am a very energetic and interactive teacher, moving around the classroom, challenging students with questions, providing many examples and anecdotes to illustrate teaching points. I always try to teach inductively--leading the student to discover the answer on their own, and I encourage them to express their own original thoughts. I use a multisensory approach to teaching, using audio-visual resources and the internet whenever possible. I really enjoy leading students to see things from "out of the box" perspectives, to find relationships between seemingly unrelated things, and to synthesize novel insights by doing so. The most important tenet of my teaching style is respect for the individuality and potential of each student.
I taught 3 years in college--Freshman English, Grammar Basics, Composition, Speech, Literature, Business Communications. Taught over 15 years (English, Pr ... read more

I love working with all children. I believe they all have their own learning style and will work with your child to find what way works best for them to reach their full potential. I'm very caring and very patient. I will try to make the learning process fun and effective for your child.
I have many experiences in child care. When I was in my Sophomore year of high school I tutored elementary age children. I did that my Junior and Senior years as well. I took two years of early childhood education in college and in that time I tutored elementary students. I was an intern for a social service agency my Junior year of college and participated in an after school program where I helped the children complete homework and performed activities with them.

I am currently an intervention specialist for students in grades 5-8, specializing in reading content and reading strategies. Last year, I taught students in the fifth grade, focusing in the scholastic areas of mathematics, reading, language arts, science and social studies.I was assisting students in an inclusion setting with some pull out resource room interventions. This past summer, I was excited about the opportunity I have been given to expand my teaching experiences through working with students with learning, behavioral, and emotional disorders. I am currently highly qualified for grades K-12 in all academic subject areas; reading/language arts, math, science, and social studies.
Through my teaching experiences, I have found the method of facilitating rather than dictating, to be a highly beneficial style of teaching. My teaching experiences have taught me that if students ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I thoroughly love teaching as I come from a line of teachers myself. I have demonstrated that learning happens on multiple levels depending on what level one is working on. In my experience, I have learned that understanding is a process which involves listening, question and answer, humility, multiple approaches (including mixed media, visual and audio stimulus, humor, etc.), and a general openness to learn. Patience is key, and to learn is not just to memorize--it is to understand. Through the learning of the knowledge of relationships and the inter-working of things is understanding of subject material attained. We are all children, and as children we strive to break the barriers that close our minds. A good teacher knows how to ferret out these barriers that prevent our learning and open the doors to discovery and thought. It is with this knowledge that every student I have ta ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I obtained my BA in Social Work and have worked in that field since 1993. In 2005 I began a part time job as an Adult Education instructor for Sentinel Career Center where my primary focus was language arts/writing. I was part of the STAR reading program where I became certified to teach adults to read. In this program and as a GED instructor I have tutored many individuals of varying ages, education levels and backgrounds. In my work as a social worker, I work primarily with children with mental health issues/learning disabilities where the focus is on behavior, organizational,study and communication skills and parenting education.
My teaching style is not typical since I am not a certified teacher. I am creative in my teaching style using a variety of techniques. I understand that each child and person learns differently (Auditory, Visual, Tactile) so I try to discover the ... read more

I enjoyed teaching children and adults. It is always special to me to help another in learning and gaining the knowledge behind a subject. It goes beyond memory and I believe in practice makes perfect. I believe that a child or an adult can learn if the opportunity is there in some constructive form, considering the learning levels of the students. If I can help one student make a change in their life to continue growing in learning and prospering in that learning to become a pillar of the community, then so be it. One should never give up on the possibilities from knowledge.
I have a variety of experiences in afterschool care coordinator, student teaching in first and second grades, Licensed/certified in Occupational Therapy. Practiced with MR/MHD children and adults in fine motor skills. Taught at a community college in first/second years students in Occupational therapy th ... read more

I have graduated with Honors from undergraduate school, from graduate school and presently holds a 3.79 GPA during the obtaining of my PhD. I have plans of having my PhD Degree conferred in the Fall of 2010. I have a passion for teaching and learning. My educational background has provided me with the opportunity to evaluate and assess learners; to understand where the application of time needs to be focused. The dissertation that I am writing on the Theory of Multiple Intelligences has given me the wisdom to understand all learners are intelligent in a specific manner. When a learner knows their greatest intelligence and best learning style, that gives them the advantge of learning.
I have a teaching style that is inquisitive for the learner. The learner has to be analytical and straegic in their learning. As an instructor, I like to ask questions as well as give answers to stu ... read more

As a Psychology student, I understand the importance of learning. I tutored middle and high school aged children in all subject areas, particularly in math. As I have been tutoring, I have seen that math and science are not children's strong subjects and I work to have the students understand them more.
I love working with children. I believe that every child has the potential to learn, and as a tutor I work to find which way the child learns best, whether through sports or music, or other various activities. I am extremely patitent and understanding, and I am eager to help children. I strive to help children better themselves.
