Special Education is one of my top subjects! I taught 5th and 6th grade special education in both the self-contained and in-class support classroom for 12 years. I have a rich experience in teaching diverse populations, from schools in urban Philadelphia, metropolitan Honolulu, and rural South Jersey. I was named Teacher of the Year in my last district.

I am easygoing and friendly, and never judgemental. I will focus on what you feel is your weakest link or help you determine where your needs are. We will discuss the scoring rubric used on the constructed responses, examine examples of potential scenarios, and review responses and how they would have scored and why.
I have taught Special Education in the public school system for over 13 years. This exposure to the needs of students and the strategies that play such an important part in helping students succeed led me to eventually begin scoring PRAXIS tests. After 3 years of scoring, I was offered a position as a scoring facilitator who introduced constructed response questions, discussed rubric requirements, and monitored the scores given by groups of 10-14 scorers assigned to each question.

My belief is that any student can master subject matter if it is presented in an organized manner at the student's level. My experience has been that many students have difficulty because the information has not been presented correctly. My goal is to have students achieve success in a stress free environment.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate from the distinguished Norfolk State University, I have a drive and passion to work with children. I have earned my BS in 2007, and since then have worked several jobs in the school system. I have immense communication skills, writing, and organizations skills. I am a competent. compassionate, cooperative, and committed leader. I started out as a tutor/ mentor while still in college for Elementary students. In addition, I've worked with special needs students as a one on one paraprofessional. I also tutored students grade 3 and 5 within their homes. I am very helpful and willing to take any challenges given to me.
I believe in all teaching styles, especially since no one child is the same; everyone is unique and different. I am patient and considerate while providing the best education to students. My approach to teaching is hands on, and practice makes perfect. To te ... read more

LOUD & LIVELY! I like to make the lessons I teach interesting and involvement is key. If I can educate and entertain (a tool I use), I command participation, respect and learning. Due to my style, students, once in a while, think it's all fun and games. I am also an enforcer of rules. If you want to continue to have learn and have fun, you better act right.
As an educator, I have tutored students in mathematics and English from grades 4 through college level. I have taught songwriting in summer camps, 4th grade language arts and ESL to high school kids fresh from Korea. Also, as a Youth Advocate, part of my job description was helping my kids with school work and homework.

A Little Bit About Me...

I just graduated with a BA in Psychology and are two courses short of a minor in Spanish and Sociology. I've always been very strong in the English/Language Arts/Writing areas as well. I am currently a certified substitute teacher and also already do some elementary tutoring. Some of my previous tutoring experience include writing, some psychological statistics and some basic math/language skills.
I love to teach and help others in general. I always had difficulty when I was younger finding a tutor or some help in my studies that I could understand easily. I am a very patient and have a great sense of humor that come in handy during subjects of frustration. I believe if you can bring a child into their comfort zone and put the directions in the most simple fashion, a child can learn anything! I'd love to turn a subject they avoid into a subject to brag about...

More About This Tutor...

I have lived in South Jersey all of my life. I received my degree in Accounting from Stockton and have spent most of my career in finance working my way up to Controller for several businesses. When I was laid off, I had always wanted to try teaching and I loved it. I love working with kids (I also coach baseball and football), I really get a kick out of passing my knowledge onto them and seeing their face when it sinks in.
Math to me is like a puzzle... if you can imagine the pieces in your mind, fitting them together in practice is so much easier. I am extremely patient and easy going, even in coaching, most kids gravitated to me because I could speak to them on their level. You have to explain it in a way that kids can understand. Positive feedback is very critical to let them know they are going down the right path.

As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to create effective learning goals. I believe this will increase a student's motivation and connection to the material. Connections, which are endless and create concrete understanding for students. I am very passionate, easy going and understanding of students. Although, I set the highest expectations because I believe the student can achieve them. Each student can succeed and they will.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 teacher in elementary and secondary education and recently completed my special education certification so that students requiring special educational accommodations can be properly recognized and taught.

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests.

I believe every child is entitled to an education regardless of any circumstance. They should strive to achieve all they can become. I try to be a teacher with patience, a good listener, and to encourage all my students with a positive attitude. My students needs come first and I try to always have extra time for them if they require it.
I became a teacher because I enjoy working with children. I enjoy helping them in their learning process. When they do well in achieving their goal it's rewarding to me. I know I have accomplished something. All my students achieved a grade level or more whether I tutored on my own or with Club Z Tutoring Service.

I believe teaching is a gift from God. At the age of 12 I had a baby sitting job and received a certificate for babysitting at the YMCA. The training was excellent and I learned how to care for an infant. I love children and have worked with them numerous years. My teaching style involves the tactile, kinesthetic,visual, and auditory learner. I found out it is important to recognize the best learning style for any individual and utilize the one that will enhance their ability to succeed.

I believe that all children are capable of learning; however it is important to remember that children have various learning styles. Some children may be auditory, textile or visual learners. My approach to teaching is a hands-on style where students can learn material through experience and discovery. My goal is to provide students with a good education while giving them strategies for learning and studying. I believe that if students are not understanding a certain subject, it is important to change the style of teaching to better suit the child. Although I have never tutored students before, I believe that I am a good candidate because I am hard working, patient, flexible and kind.
