Elementary Expert Offering Results

I am knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and experienced working with children with a variety of needs. I believe every child is an individual that should be treated with respect and understanding. My approach to teaching utilizes a child's interests, technology, engaging texts, and inquiry-based projects. Tutoring can be so much more than impersonal instruction.
Greetings! I'm a certified elementary educator with seven years of experience working as a basic skills teacher, test prep tutor, and for the last five years a third grade teacher. I am trained in STEM and reading and writing workshops. I pride myself on growing student's reading levels, writing, and critical thinking. I'm currently looking to tutor additional students and would be happy to assist with homework and projects, as well as develop study skills, test readiness, and fundamentals.

Learning Improves with Positive Reinforcement.

I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.
I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem.

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined.
I have over twenty years teaching in the public and private schools in New Jersey. I have taught English, Math, Social Studies, and Business. I am a NJ state certified teac ... read more

I have become very involved in youth development and academic success. I also am a motivational speaker for high schools and colleges. I believe that any student can achieve their dreams and goals.

I will do everything in my power to provide students everything that will help them reach their desires and goals. I have substitute taught theatre and history classes. I am an extremely creative person and will always offer a new way to look at a problem or situation.

I have always loved children and working with them. As a teenager, I volunteered as a camp instructor during the summer. All of my jobs since graduating college have allowed me to help children work to their potential. Since my major is Special education, I have a strong sense of compassion and empathy. I feel each child has the right to learn, and should love to go to school. Through patience and numerous teaching styles, I try to bring out the best in each of my students.

I am very confident in my ability to quickly assess the needs of another, and it's appropriate to tailor my teaching style accordingly, so that each child would receive the maximum benefit. I am proud to say that I am a person who naturally enjoys a very good rapport with children. I am someone who both enjoys and strives to assist others, and I count my patience as the personal virtue I am most proud of.
My work for various employers in the insurance and legal industry has been dependent on strong interpersonal skills, dealing with those on all levels of the social ladder. As my career advanced, countless times I was called upon to assist others in their training, and my job also required a daily aspect of education in explaining intricacies of systems to many.

As a H.S. student, I was a volunteer tutor with A Better Chance program and I continued to tutor and mentor students throughout my college and professional career. I tutored students in math and english/reading. My greatest sources of satisfaction have been spending 3 summers on loan to Purdue University to teach in their Minority Science program for H.S. School students. Additionally, I feel fortunate to have been a H.S. Soccer coach for 12 years and a youth soccer club coach for 25+ years. I have a B.S. in Computer Science and an MBA. Both degrees placed a heavy emphasis on mathematics, a subject I have been comfortable with my entire life. Also, my 30 year professional career allowed me to hone my oral and verbal communication skills.
I love working with and teaching children and I recognize that every child is different and each has his/her own capacity for learning. Being able ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a tutor my goal is to give students a reason to be excited about their school subjects by giving them a realistic application to their lessons. When students can see a purpose for what they are learning, it may ignite an excitement in them that was not existent previously. Through my experience working with students from all backgrounds and academic levels, I am confident in all students' abilities to grasp concepts and excel. This can be done by assessing each student's individual learning style and pin pointing the child's interests and strengths and applying them to the subject at hand.
In college I served as a tutor in a number of capacities. I tutored Business Calculus at The College of New Jersey and I served as a volunteer reading tutor with Martin House, a non-profit organization in Trenton, NJ. As a volunteer, I helped students prepare for the NJ Ask assesment. ... read more

I believe in learning by doing. In order for information to be retained, but must be practiced. I am not one that will stand and lecture a student, but allow them to show my where they are at with their skills, and work together to improve them. The student will dictate the pace, but I will dictate the focus of each session, after an assessment. I think every child can improve their skills with the right practice, information and encouragement.
While I was in college, I volunteered as a language arts tutor at a middle school in Ewing, NJ, and even since I have loved helping children learn. My step-daughter has had trouble with reading comprehension and writing skills, and I have worked with her to improve her grades. My mother is also an elementary school teacher, and she has expired me and taught me much of what I know about tutoring. My expertise is with writing skills (any le ... read more

I began tutoring K through 5th graders at an elementary school. Many of my students only spoke Spanish at home. From then, I continued tutoring elementary school students with a wide range of abilities. A few of my students were gifted, and we worked on sharpening their already existing skills. Many of my students struggled in a specific area, and we were able to incorporate general study skills into our lessons. I was able to help all of my students with book reports and other projects that were more time consuming than regular homework assignments. Throughout college and law school I refined my own studying habits. I believe I can pass my study skills onto my students and help them focus, manage their time, learn and succeed.
Since 2000, I have tutored students of all levels in a variety of subjects. During my undergraduate studies, I earned a BA in communication (public relat ... read more
