My comments on tutoring Entrance Exams : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have taught several test-preparation courses. I have helped many students to achieve well on standardized tests. I am patient and understanding. I have a math/science background and have been teaching basic skills (reading, writing, oral communication) for 30 years.

I have been teaching college (History, Philosophy, Ethics, writing, reading, social studies) since the early 1980's. I have taught in New York (LaGuardia Community College), Connectiuct (Three Rivers Community College), New Jersey (Mercer County Community College) and Pennsylvania (Bucks County and Montgomery County Community Colleges and ). I have also taught online (University of Phoenix, DeVry University and The Iowa Consortium of Community Colleges). I have tutored many college and high school students, as well as grammar school students. I have taught several test preparation classes and helped many students to raise their test scores.
In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that incl ... read more

Learning is a lifelong process!

Every student is unique and benefits from an individualized instruction. My style is business casual; I am firm yet warm and encouraging with students.
My very first year of teaching was at the Lehigh Valley Performing Arts High School, and I also taught for two years at Northern Lehigh High School. Currently, I am resigned and staying home, but looking to work part time. I have experience teaching grades 7-12 and working with all types of students. The classes I've taught range from Honors English to a class which targeted students struggling to gain proficiency in English related PSSA skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator I have the opportunity to help my students find their strengths, build on them, and guide them on their future path. This opportunity can also be a challenge. It becomes my responsibility to rise to the challenge and be the person they say was important in shaping their future. I want to be prepared to help students recognize their strengths and how those apply to a profession, how to prepare for the transition from school to the workforce, the military, or college, and how to successfully embark on their post-school life.
I have been an educator for 23 years,as an elementary school teacher, and in special education at the secondary level. I have a master's degree in learning disabilities, and have worked on a Child Study Team for the past 14 years. I believe all children can learn if taught to their individual learning style. I have taught home instruction and t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I received a B.S. Degree in Education with a teaching certificate in English-Communication, at the secondary level. I am also qualified to instruct younger children. My graduate work focused on elementary students.My experience with young children, was learning to identify reading disabilities, administering standardized reading tests, to assess the instructional and readiness levels of individual students. I have taught in a wide array of classroom settings and as a private tutor.
I strive to encourage open discussions, and small group activities so students can move around the room, but only as it relates to the task at hand. I enjoy watching their enthusiasm when I give a "fun" learning activity. I am pleasant, very patient and lively!

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with students. My teaching style most closely aligns with the demonstrator style. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. My teaching is performed with patience, persistence, and compassion. I am very easy going.
As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned a BS degree in Computer Science and have worked as a software engineer and tutor. Some of my mathematical skills include algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability & statics, discreet math, and differential equations. I am an excellent computer programmer, have a good understanding of physics, and I learned to wri ... read more

I have just retired from teaching math at the middle school level and an adjunct math instructor at the college level for 35 years. I have tutored the past 5 years of my career privately and with students with disabilities at Centenary College, Hackettstown, NJ. With all this experience and knowledge about teaching various levels, a professor at Berkeley College of NJ and I have recently been giving presentations to NJ Math Teachers and will to teachers teaching in the Correctional Facilities in NJ. I wish to apply all my experiences teaching to more tutoring.
I enjoy meeting new students who have trouble learning math and seeing themselves light up after a session or two of tutoring. I believe in the discovery method of learning and questioning to have the student aware of where he/she is having difficulty with math. Then we work from there and the needs of the student so the s ... read more

I have extensive teaching experience from both private tutoring and teaching at the University of Pennsylvania. I have expert knowledge of all mathematics and sciences at the high school and college levels.
My greatest attribute is to assess the students learning style and teach them a new subject in their own language. I find that the learning rate is directly related to my ability to communicate with each student in a manner that they can understand.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Lehigh University, I am interested in helping others learn about the subjects that I had become well acquainted with. I have a BA in Anthropology which I believe makes me a great candidate to teach a broad array of subjects including reading and writing, history, art, and cultural studies. In addition I have taken many art and architecture classes which makes me an ideal candidate for a holistic learning experience.
As a young man I had several problems with math. It turns out that I was unable to visualize what the equations meant in abstract algebra and calculus. Eventually I was able to relate these concepts to subjects that I found interesting such as music and archaeology. Therefore creating more interest in the subjects that I gravitated to naturally. I believe that I could explain concepts to others in a way that suits their interests. At the end of the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet do not become overwhelming. Since the beginning of the era in which the special education population has began being mainstreamed into regular education classrooms in most schools, I have developed a great practice of differentiated instruction. I also am aware that there are people who are a specific learning style as well as the people that are a combination of any two or three learning styles. That's who I teach for.
I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typic ... read more
