My comments on tutoring Testing Strategies : Guess? Not guess? Skip questions? What if I am always running out of time on a test? Are there clues in the question that can help me eliminate answers? What if I am just a bad test taker - or I get too nervous to do well... I will show you how. If I am qualified in the test you are taking, I'd love to help. Results don't lie. Please take a look at the reviews left for me here -- https://www.wyzant.com/Tutors/mathzap -- to see if I would be a good fit for you. You can message me here or there to confirm that is really me. I'd love to hear from you!

My goal is to connect with the student at THEIR level. We start by going over the basics of problem solving and work from there to foster independent thinking. I use varied approaches when the student is "stuck." I am friendly, patient and very persistent. I can assist with classwork and homework, and will tailor tutoring sessions to your needs. I will assign supplemental work to advance in the subject area as needed or desired. My ultimate goal - to work myself out of a job!

Experienced tutor available

My engaging style is evident at the start of each tutoring session. I show my students by personal example how to persevere and succeed in academics and in life. For the past 15 years, I have been a full-time tutor for students in grades 1-12. I am a graduate of Wesleyan University with an emphasis in physical and cultural anthropology and an ongoing fascination with the study of prehistoric human societies. Presently, I use my diverse experience as a tutor, copy editor and radio news broadcaster to make each tutoring session truly memorable for my students. My students quickly see how much I care for their progress and success. I consider tutoring to be much more than just a profession, but a way to provide others with needed assistance. It is this goal, when met, which provides me with my greatest satisfaction as an educator.

My comments on tutoring Testing Strategies : Over the years I have studied both the way in which I have strategized when taking tests and the way others have. These strategies will help you reach optimal competency in your testing approach.

I have been immersed the field of interpreting since 2008. Having graduated out of Bloomsburg University in 2012, over the last two years I have been professionally interpreting in three states and in various fields. My work ranges from public school classes, college lectures, medical appointments, religious sermons, platform events and government assignments. Regularly, I attend different workshops and Deaf events around the community to keep up with my skills and to continue learning the ever changing language of ASL.
Start with the basics. Assess what level the student is at and then work that into a more challenging structure to pertain to what the student would like to accomplish.

Teaching and School Counseling Services In One Place!

I have been a teacher for the last fifteen years. I teach social studies, but my specialization is teaching argumentative (college level) writing.I have done plenty of SAT prep and tutoring for students at the high school and college level. I am also a school counselor and can offer a vast array of services including FASFA, Naviance/Common Application and college/career counseling.
My style of education is to teach by modeling. Students need to see things in a step-by-step format with instructions, followed by an immediate example. I also provide sample argumentative essays for students who learn by seeing a complete model. My counseling style is to work with students, first by building a rapport and then using that as the foundation to get a feel for their college/career interests. I then look at their grades to help them build a custom transitional plan into early adulthood.

Wordsworth said, "What we have loved, others will love, and we will teach them how." These words encapsulate my teaching philosophy. An effective instructor provides her students with the tools necessary to love what she loves; thus she must demonstrate both a passion for her subject and a desire to connect personally with her students. As a classroom teacher and tutor, I have developed a number of strategies to facilitate foreign-language learning; these are designed to reduce the stress associated with exposure to a second language. I find that students learn most efficiently when they feel relaxed, prepared, and in control, and I work to equip each of my students with the skills they need to be receptive learners.
My career in secondary education began in high school, when I was hired to tutor beginning Spanish students from local middle schools. As an undergraduate at Rand ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I really enjoy teaching because I enjoy seeing the progress with people as they excel in something they thought they would never be able to do. I like working with children because I can make learning fun and interesting to them. I have a lot of experience working with younger children in elementary school all the way up to young adolescents in high school. I have also been a mentor to freshmen in college. My teaching style is very eclectic. I understand that all people learn differently, and I am very open to adapting to the style that works best for them. Ultimately my main goal is to see people succeed and feel good about them selves. Teaching and tutoring comes very natural to me, because I have a lot of patients, and enjoy problem solving with a variety of people.
I am a recent college graduate who is very focused and motivated. I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology an ... read more

I have been working as a Special Education Teaching Assistant for the past 5 years. A good portion of my job is working one on one with children outside of the classroom. I have experience in a variety of subjects from the elementary level up to the high school grades. Prior to this I tutored Yale foreign graduate students in English and helped them edit their papers for class. In January, I started tutoring Saturday school students in Math, Writing and Reading at Amistad Academy in order to better prepare them for the Connecticut Mastery Tests.
I came into education as a career later in life. I have never experienced such a rewarding career. Due to my love for this profession and working with children I have recently starting pursuing my teaching certification. I believe that every child should have the opportunity in school to meet their potential and achieve academic success in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am patient and approachable but insist on the value of completing assignments even if the student "hates" them. I am good at explaining how this will be important later, which turns around reluctant learners. I believe in explaining, showing, modelling, and then stepping back while the student tries, explains, and determines where the mistakes come up. I value resiliance, and bask in the joy of competence achieved through effort.
I went from the Boston Public Schools to Commonwealth School and then Wellesley College, and would have been lost, early on, without help from tutors. I majored in English and Russian and work with several communities for whom English is not their first language. I am also a freelance writer and editor and I help my children's friends with their college essays. I work as a substitute teacher with all levels and grades and teach everything but Science and ... read more

I enjoy the challenge of teaching to each individual student's unique learning style. I try to assess the student's needs and interests before developing a customized learning plan. I believe learning is more meaningful when it is active and student-directed. I enjoy finding new and creative ways to teach material and greatly appreciate student feedback.
I have worked with students at the elementary and high school levels who came from diverse backgrounds and skill levels. I have extensive experience working with students to improve their reading, writing and test taking skills. Additionally I am able to assist students in research for various areas of study. I am currently working on my Masters in School Counseling so I have a great deal of current experience doing research, writing essays and helping students figure out how to achieve their goals.

(Re: one-on-one tutoring)--My teaching style is adapted to the learning style, level, and age of an individual student and is attuned to the sensitivities and personalities of those with whom I interact. First I identify the challenges of the subject to be taught and the ability and knowledge the student has already acquired. I choose the best resources to use and the best method of communicating about the subject with the student. If it's English, I'd work with them to practice using tools for reading comprehension (highlighting key passages, summarizing key concepts, predicting plot developments, relating their experiences to those of characters, etc.) and for writing (outlining, structuring material, etc.). In general, I create an enjoyable dynamic learning environment and use the benefits of rapport to accelerate the achievement of goals. I like to engage students' curiosity, i ... read more

My passion in life is working with children! I love teaching and having the opportunity to share knowledge with children. My experience teaching and tutoring has taught me a great deal about how to reach different students. All children are capable of learning; however, the manner in which children learn can differ. Children need to feel successful in order to be successful. If you portray a negative attitude about learning, children will sense that and act accordingly. I believe students learn by asking questions, figuring things out with some guidance, and making connections to what they already know. Exploration and enjoying learning are two things that will help a child reach his or her goals and WANT to keep learning!
