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

I love teaching and enjoy working with children. I believe that children require a lot of patience and understanding. My goal is to provide a positive learning environment where children can feel motivated. I believe that children can reach their upmost potential when they are with a teacher that is able to provide a variety of techniques and methods based on their learning style. Their success is my first priority.

It's true that every student learns at a different pace with a different style. I like to see myself as a cameleon teacher, catering my format to individual needs. My style tends to be laid back so that students are comfortable expressing their likes and dislikes with me, curbing their fear of not understanding something. I love to use metaphors, pictures, examples and stories to illustrate the subject in a new and perhaps clearer way. I don't teach and run - I make sure the student understands before moving on to the next problem. I have them work through something in front of me so I can make sure they know what they're doing. And, finally - importantly - I keep a healthy, balanced sense of humor.
My original plan was to major in Education, but decided to double major in school, then obtain my teaching certificate after graduation. Now, armed with two degrees and a desire to ente ... read more

As a student-athlete and Philadelphia native I always understood that higher education was a privilege and not a guaranteed right; with this in mind I also greatly valued my education. During my time as a undergraduate I completed my studies in the field of Business Administration with provided me with the tools and know-how how to succeed in the today's ultra-competitive marketplace. Achieving my Master’s Degree in the field of Higher Education allowed me to hone my research and learning skills. During this time I have tutors part-time at the local University City high school to help high school students prep for SAT and aide in college applications.
My teaching style consists of helping students work through and understand the problem/assignment. Also from my days of collegiate sports I truly understand that practice makes perfect. I love working with students and helping them re ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a full time tutor and academic coach, I have spent 1000+ hours privately tutoring, holding classes and teaching middle and high school to understand the many learning styles needed to achieve success. I possess an BA in English and an MBA in Human Resources. After 30 years in Corporate America, I retired early and returned to teaching, tutoring and coaching.
I work with the student's strengths to ascertain their learning style and then apply these to the area needing improvement. No one style will work for every child. Therefore, I work independently with each child's style and work to make a marked improvement in their success.

More About This Tutor...

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

A Little Bit About Me...

My greatest desire to is to work with others in a compassionate, empathetic manner. I believe that providing any assistance first begins with deeply listening and relating to the needs, concerns and hopes of another. Just as personalities and interests differ between individuals, learning styles can greatly vary. My goal as a tutor is to identify with each client and work together to achieve the best and most enjoyable lesson plan. I feel that I have succeeded when learning becomes a fun, interesting endeavor for both the student and tutor.
I have always been a lifelong learner, and I see tutoring as an extension of my desire to consistently review and engage with all academic material. The liberal arts education that I received at Scripps College set the standard to appreciate and learn a variety of subjects. I received two bachelor degrees, BA in Art History and BA in French ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Coming from a family of educators, I have always had a desire to teach and instruct. My areas of study and concentration have provided me with the skills that are characteristic of advanced readers and writers. My eleven years of teaching experience have kept me sharp and current with the newest best practices in the classroom. I have taken this and transferred it to the students that I tutor.
Simply put, I firmly believe that all children can learn and achieve at a high level. Student achievement correlates directly with expectation. Unfortunately, for many students expectations are low. High expectations lead to high achievements. As a teacher, it is my job to find ways to motivate my students to learn. This can be accomplished in many different ways. Differentiated instruction is the first step; students learn in differently and at their own pace. I need to be aware of ... read more
