More About This Tutor...

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.

When I am teaching my students, I am someone who has passion in all of the work that I do. I've always wanted to be a teacher and I want to make a positive impact in their lives. I know that all children can learn, whether or not they may have a learning disability. Knowing that all students work at different paces or need learn by different styles (hands-on, visual, oral) I try to incorporate that into all of my lesson plans so they can get the best out of a lesson. I am a very loving, caring and passionate person, especially when it comes to education and teaching children. To me, teaching isn't a job; it's a lifestyle and I try my best to give 110% everyday.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love children for their unabashed honesty. I treat them with respect and do my utmost to listen deeply to their needs. I'm a very patient, detail-oriented person and frequently use humor to create an environment that the child finds is fun in which to learn and one where both mentor and child have mutual respect. A willingness/openness to learn the challenging subjects is key on the child's part. It is a joy to help a child learn and watch them grow more confident in the process.
I have enjoyed the written word my entire life. I have written poetry, screenplays, short stories, advertising copy, grants, business plans, marketing plans, newsletters and press releases. My understanding of grammar and syntax is second nature to me. I have tutored children in English (reading and writing) for more than 15 years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I do not have a lot of experience in the teaching field but I am a natural born teacher. I have been a mentor to many people in my life; friends, co-workers, even family members would say the same. If given the opportunity I will be able to grow with and enjoy the success of all my students. We will indulge in the passion of education!
I am a very interactive, do-it-yourself kind of educator. There is nothing more liberating and inspiring than understanding and recognizing the limitlessness of one's own ability. With just the right push from me, our children can reach unbeleivably great heights!

Since I was younger, I have always been interested in teaching children. I have babysat for neighbors, tutored children at the elementary level, and I worked at two daycare centers as a Pre-K head teacher. I attended SUNY Oswego and received my bachelor's degree in Childhood Education 1-6 in May 2008. I also received that year my NYS Teaching Certificate. My last semester of college, I student taught in a fifth grade classroom for seven weeks and a second grade classroom for seven weeks. It was the greatest experience I have ever had. Currently I am taking online classes through the University at Albany to receive my Masters Degree in Childhood Education/Literacy. I love children and the greatest reward is watching them succeed.

As someone who felt in my youth that if I could only pay attention I could learn anything has taught me how to break down the barriers to focus and how it can shape a students success in any discipline. Focusing on my learning style has taught me how to demonstrate complex ideas in ways that are easy to absorb. I tend to find different ways to relate material to students in ways that are fun. I used a dollars and cents approach to teach young students the importance of decimals, fractions, and basic arithmetic as how it affected their own bottom line: their allowance, milk money and so on. I also have found that not speaking from a position of authority but rather as a fellow learner have exacted better results.

I teach to the individual, searching out the students learning style and model my teaching efforts based on my assessment. I have spent my career working with those that have had the greatest difficulty learning. I have also tutored and taught those who excel, and those in between. I have been exceptionally successful on all levels.

In 1973 I joined the West Park Union Free School a newly legislated Special Ed. school as a teacher/ administrator. I moved to Educational administration in 1986. I returned to the classroom in 1990.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had experience working with a vast majority of students. I believe that each student develops a particular way of learning, and it is my job to figure out that method and build upon it. My student teaching assignments have prepared me to assist students from many different backgrounds and lifestyles. I have tutored and managed students from rural Peru, NY to the inner city students of Harlem, NY. I am able to use my easygoing nature to my advantage with out compromising the goals and objectives that are in place. Additionally, I feel that students should have a say in how and why they learn. I try and make learning something that they look forward to as apposed to a chore or something they may not want to do.

I prefer to work with students from the 4th grade up thru college level, and have experience working with individuals with special educational needs. I believe that each student has his/her own learning style. Some are visual learners, some auditory, some experiential. I try to tailor my teaching to each individual's style. I am patient, caring, sensitive and consistent. I am well versed in all areas of grammar, syntax and composition. I believe that every experience is a story that can be put down on paper and that every student can learn to write effectively. Most of all I believe that learning can and should be an enjoyable experience.

A Little Bit About Me...

Understanding the learning habits of an individual is the key to relating to the student and making positive changes in those habits. I'm patient and empathetic, which helps me find methods to tailoring strategies unique to the student. Attempting to conform an individual to one predescribed style is the reason they're left behind in the first place. There is nothing more gratifying than the look of revelation on a student's face when he or she finds the key to true understanding.

Throughout high school, I was proficient in not only these skills, but also Mathematics and History, which led me to sample many related classes in college. I have past tutoring experience in Math and English, and my SAT scores we ... read more
