A positive environment greatly benefits proper growth.

I am a mother of a child whom I successfully homeschooled in a variety of subjects prior to starting school (our situation changed and I was not able to continue full-time homeschooling). However, I continued to supplement learning and exploration outside of school. At her interest, she began reading at age 3 and was already fluently reading books to her classmates in Kindergarten. • I have taught as both teacher and assistant at Sunday Schools and have worked as a camp counselor during my high school years. Post high school, I volunteered at a special needs clinic with developmentally delayed children. • I am a strong believer in multiple intelligences and in nurturing to encourage growth and development.
I strive to understand the nature of my clients, and use that understanding to help create a teaching structure. I am a patient motivator, and attempt to use different meth ... read more

My comments on tutoring Writing Skills : I am NYS certified in Literacy (grades 5-12) and English (grades 7-12), although I have several years of experience with children as young as Kindergarten.

As an educator, I view myself not as a provider of knowledge, but rather as a facilitator. I aim to encourage the critical thinking that will serve students not only in the classroom, but throughout their lives. In my experience, I have become well-versed in student-centered curriculum development programs, including Understanding by Design, which I have employed extensively in my own lesson planning with gratifying results. I have also been trained in, and have been implementing, the new Common Core Standards for over a year. My student teaching and observations in New York City public schools as well as my current tenured position in an inner city school district have provided me with valuable exposure to diverse classroom atmospheres and have allowed me to develop effective classroom management strategies. This range of both academic and practical classroom experience lends a bala ... read more

My teaching style is interactive, many of my former students would characterize it as "coaching". I always empower the student to find their way and to have them become "pros" in the learning process. I do not do the work for them, but I show them how they can make their tasks and finishing them more efficient. I am a firm believer in the philosophy that edication is not preparation for life, it is life itself. Experience is key.
Over 13 years of working with students that were not scholars initially. After learning skills to improve their educational/learning experience, they became more scholarly, and enjoyed learning. This is key. They just need to change their perspective, and learn how to make "learning" enjoyable, like it was in kindergarden.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a veteran teacher with 18 years experience in teaching students with disabilities. I have taught in public, private, and youth facilities ages from 5-21. My expertise is in Austism and ADHD learners. I am also a certified art educator so my approach to learning and teaching is "hands on" experiences. I create my own materials designed for the individual learner.

I am an alumnus of Stevens Institute of Technology graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree in computer engineering.

I believe most people can learn if they have a desire. Also, I believe most people can teach something they have mastered if they have a sincere desire. I love to impart what I know to others so they can make progress in their life.
As a graduate from Brigham Young University (BYU) with two degrees, I am motivated to excel in education and/or business. My first degree was a BA in History Teaching. I have taught in the classroom and worked in other education positions for 8 years. Recently, I completed an MBA at the Marriott School of Management on the campus of BYU.

I am not a professional teacher, but I played one in newsrooms at several newspapers. During a span of 20 years as reporter, sports writer, copy editor, section editor and editor-in-chief, I trained many new hires -- and even a few veterans -- in spelling, grammar, punctuation, comprehension of written material and in writing. I did not take graduate classes, but I did take the Graduate Record Exam. I scored in the upper 15% in both Verbal and Essay. I do not consider myself a classically trained scholar or academic. My knowledge comes from practical experience and in knowing study approaches in advance of taking standardized test.
I am patient and encouraging. I have a talent for identifying how people learn. It is important to know what works with people in order to dail into the proper approach. Some people can read and immediately understand. Others need the repetition of hands ... read more

In addition to 3 years of experience working in a pre-school, I also have tutoring experience with people of all ages in various subjects. In 2003, I earned Bachelor's degrees in Accounting and Psychology. In 2006, I earned my Master's degree in Business Administration. I wrote and defended a 50+ page thesis to complete this program. Currently, I am pursuing my Master's degree in Psychology. I have excellent writing, grammar, spelling and proofreading skills.
I have worked with many different types of children and adults. I've found that each person responds differently to different styles of teaching and I am able to adapt to each individual's needs. My first objective is finding what teaching style a person responds to best to and formulating a plan for them next. The parts of my teaching style that remain constant are encouraging independent study, being direct, and pushing each ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Working with students and education has been a part of my life for about 11 years. I first began doing so in high school, around 1999 working as a volunteer with the YMCA. Eventually I became a counselor and would work my way up to Camp Director. I am proud to say that I am the first of my family to attend a University. Currently I am a senior at Cuny Lehman College in the Bronx, NY where I study English Literature and minor in Secondary Education. Recently I have just returned from studying at the University of Puerto Rico in Rio Piedras. The year abroad helped me to better understand my culture and gain a stronger grip on my native language. I believe education is truly the key to success.

I believe strongly in the approach of teaching to the style of learning of each student. I do not lecture but ask questions and guide students to learn critical thinking, complex concepts, and to learn to read, write, and speak from the heart, not based on a predescribed required skill set. I believe the voice needs to be developed and the skill can be honed in progression.
I am inspired to be a school teacher and educator to give to the community my years of experience. My history as an insurance professional was centered on the consultative approach, providing education and understanding of insurance and offering guidance and advice to families, individuals and businesses on how to protect their financial well being. 30 hours of classroom observations have been completed during the first semester of City College of New York with another 30 hours scheduled for the second semeste ... read more

Passion, selflessness, and compassion are some reasons for wanting to be a teacher/tutor. I would want to know all that I possibly can learn about my students' life styles, behaviors, wants, and needs in order to help them achieve and learn as much as possible. I would encourage my students to let them tell me as much as they possibly can about their problems, wants, and needs. I, as a teacher, am a role model to be trusted, and I would like my students to put their faith in me as their leader, role model, and hero.
I have demonstrated competence in successfully managing a profitable retail business. The necessary skills are invaluable. They can be used now in a classroom to help me become one of the best teachers/tutors in your school system. I have knowledge of: computer programming, software knowledge, accounting, care and maintenance of buildings, physical structures, and ... read more

I am very well qualified and would be an asset because of my experience working as a tutor for Club Z. I have worked with both elementary and middle school teachers to develop curricula that meet the needs of students. I enjoy tutoring students and helping them build confidence in their ability to achieve, both academically and socially. In addition, I have artistic and computer skills that will be an asset when developing class projects.
I love children, and understand their desires. I am able to control, motivate, and inspire children to do their best at all times. I am patient, and prepared to explain topics slowly, thoroughly, and in as many different ways as possible. I have an indefinable presence which marks me out as a person who children naturally respect and admire.

I believe in teaching the student how to learn on their own, rather than just telling them the answers. It is my ultimate goal to make every one of my students feel confident that they can learn anything that their teacher will cover.It is my job to make myself unnecessary as quickly as possible, so that the student is ready to continue on their own without my services. If the class is too advanced for that, then it is my goal to help them succeed with the minimum help possible. If this is done right, the student will never feel overwhelmed, but will only feel empowered.
I am a former assistant principal who has thousands of hours of classroom teaching experience as well as thousands of hours of private tutoring experience. I have tutored countless students privately after school and have also pulled countless students out of classes in school for private sessions. I graduated ... read more
