My comments on tutoring Guitar : Playing guitar over 12 years

I have been living and playing professional football for two years in the Paris region. I coach/play with an entirely French team/league so French fluency is a must in order to communicate effectively with my teams. I've coached Les Cougars de St Ouen l'Aumone to a championship as their offensive coordinator. I also am the quarterback, offensive coordinator, and team captain for the cougars elite team. I have extensive experience tutoring my teammates and players in English. I am now looking to work as an English professor in Paris.
My teaching style is relaxed, fun, but effective. I use different methods to teach such as reading articles, listening to music, watching movies, etc. learning a foreign language requires immersion into the culture and using many resources.

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

I have a range of experiences which help make me a superior candidate to tutor. I have lived and studied in Barcelona, Spain. During this experience I learned a lot about Spanish culture and brought my Spanish to a mastery level. I lived with a host family which gave me the opportunity to become more involve with Spanish culture and their traditions. Upon returning from Spain, I finished my degree at SUNY Oswego with two semesters of student teaching.
I have a very unique teaching style in that I like to incorporate many different presentation methods and I am a firm believer of teaching to multiple intelligences. No two students learn the same way and if the student is not learning the teacher is just as responsible as the student. This being said I have used many different teaching methods from having the students performing, and singing to setting up shops to buy and sell produc ... read more

I am a life long learner and model that for my students. Assessing the academic strengths and areas to work on for each child is a strength of mine. I believe that teaching needs to encompass the whole child; the cognitive, emotional, social, and academic needs for each student must be addressed and nurtured. Every student can learn. The teacher is the "guide on the side" who draws out the best in her students. I strive to be that facilitator to learning for all of the childrn with whom I work.
I have been a professional educator for 26 years. I began by teaching at the Early Childhood level as a preschool teacher and music/drama/movement specialist for seventeen years. For the past nine years I have worked as an Elementary School Teacher with regular and special ed. students. I am an experienced tutor and currently work privately with one student using the Wilson Reading program a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching students of all ages and abilities. I think it's important for the student to connect to the material in a personal way, and as a teacher it is my responsibility to help them discover how. With a strong connection, and proper guidance, the student is able to then develop a passion for the material, and will thrive. I think it's important to give students positive encouragement, and ways for them to realize their progress, so as to develop confidence, and hence a stronger connection/passion.
I have a B.Mus. from Five Towns College. I have been actively involved in music almost all of my life. I've played in numerous groups of varied styles, at various venues. I also have a passion for learning and education, which has always led me to delving deeply into all subjects I have encountered, and excelling in advanced courses in math, music, history, etc. I tutored ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a student who has dabbled in so many areas, it is easy for me to assess when a teacher/professor is not explaining a concept in a method that helps the students. I have previous experience tutoring, but my teaching talent comes from my role as the unofficial tutor for most of my classes. I can see why students are missing the concept and I am creative enough to devise new approaches.
I am a successful graduate of Susquehanna University, having earned a BA in International Studies. This study of cultural anthropology allowed me ample experience with writing, grammar, and research. I will be attending Rutgers University next year to earn a Master of Science degree in Microbiology. I am very experienced in the subjects of Biology, Chemistry, and Math on all levels. In addition to my devotion to the sciences, I have maintained an advanced-conversational level of fluency in French an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer. I served in The Gambia West Africa as a health and community development volunteer. As a volunteer I worked in a local hospital on a daily basis, performing a variety of roles. I am a graduate of Roger Williams University. I have a BS in biology. RWU's science courses are intensive in both lecture and laboratory proficiency. As a result I’m able to tutor both lecture and laboratory portions of a course.
I am a very patient teacher, and I'm willing to take the time to explain any concepts a student is having trouble with. I have tutored several courses while I was attending college including several biology courses, organic chemistry, and physics. My experience in the Peace Corps has taught me to approach subjects in an “out of the box” way, which I can translate into a unique and effective teaching styl ... read more
