As a tutor my strength lies in supporting, motivating and encouraging students along with teaching them the importance of discipline and staying focused on studies. I have noticed that for some students the actual problem is not the subject/curriculum, they need help with time management and study skills. I try to teach students how to learn better and faster by managing their time efficiently and by organizing how they study. Hi! I am a certified math teacher with 20 years of experience working with students from elementary school through college. I have a Master's degree in Mathematics and a Master's degree in Education also. I am very comfortable teaching all different age groups and enjoy working with students one-on-one.

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences. I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency.

Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students. I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.

From my School days I was very much interested in Math and also used to score good grades in Math, So most of the students from my class apart from my best friends used to come and get tutoring. Due to the interest in Math Teaching and Computers, I choose Math and Computers as Majors in my BS and MS. I have also done B.Ed degree to get well versed with teaching skills and methods. From my High School onwards, I not only have desire and passion to tutor, but also I have gained much experience especially in one on one tutoring. My students like me and how hard the topic is they understands it very well, because I don't leave them until they get it, as I always try different methods and techniques to make the subject easy to the students. As you will note, my teaching style is direct and decisive, yet flexible in responding to constantly changing demands. Throughout my career, I have had th

Teaching is my passion. I have worked with students from 11 to 70 years old. No two people learn in the same way, and no two people can be taught in the same way. I customize each session to fit the needs of the tutee. I am patient, friendly, easy to understand, and can help relate the subject to real life. My experience allows me to quickly see which aspects of the subject are difficult, how it can be made clearer, and the best way for each student to learn. I strive to ensure that each student I tutor leaves the session; having learned the material, having achieved their full potential, and feeling confident in the subject. I not only help each student learn, but help each student become stronger in their ability to work alone. As a teacher and tutor to Housatonic Community College students for the past four years, I have helped a variety of students in the areas of Math and Science.

I love working with both children and adults and enjoy both the similarities and differences in teaching style required for each. My previous experiences, both in academic and creative fields, have afforded me a great level of patience and understanding regarding the needs of those I teach. I believe in thinking outside the box and, as a result, have found that anyone can learn a discipline if their instructor approaches the subject from many different angles. My biggest reason for teaching is a genuine love for my students and the immense pride I feel when I know I have made a difference in their learning experience. For the 2008-09 school year I was employed in the Connecticut school system in the special education department. There I developed experience tutoring special education students in grades K-6 and worked closely with a myriad of personalities, both adults and children.

As far as possible, I adapt my teaching style to my students' needs. When I was teaching beginner-level German to an adult opera singer, I focused on helping her develop her conversational skills and pronunciation, using English to explain difficult concepts. By contrast, when teaching a beginner-level 12-year-old, I used a total German language immersion approach and built on my student's love of creative writing by asking her to write her own endings to traditional German short stories. In general, I believe in a natural language acquisition approach that gives students opportunities to practice, make mistakes, and learn from them. Students have told me that they find me to be very dedicated, patient, and encouraging. I hold a master's degree in language education and certification as a public school teacher in two states, New York and New Jersey. In the last three years I have ta
