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...
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 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. I have earned a BA in Education, a BS in Business Administration and two Masters Degrees.
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. Th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated from Rutgers University with a Bachelors in Science. My major was public health and I minored in biology and psychology. Throughout my college career, I have participated in many community service clubs and worked at a tutoring center where I helped college students with their weekly writing assignments. It was my responsibility to help them with their grammar, writing topics, and reading comprehension. I was able to help them grow into stronger and more creative writers.
I enjoy tutoring students and seeing them succeed. When they do well, it makes me feel like I have succeeded too. I believe teaching is very rewarding and it is important to take time and be cooperative with students in order to help them.

I have my BS in Psychology and BA in Art. In May 2003, I received my Masters of Education (M.Ed.) from the University of Maryland in College Park. My work towards this degree provided me with an extensive understanding of scientifically based research, lesson plan development, and teacher training skills. I have worked as an educational researcher on three large-scale government grants studying students’ language and literacy development, and reading motivation, in preschool through college.
I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated teacher. I want students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. I have focused on instilling in my students a love of learning. I believe it takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a student. Therefore, I have learned the val ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a student and teacher, I have been driven to excel personally and to help my students achieve excellence as well. I have earned a Master's Degree, two bachelor degrees and two certifications, MEd in Spanish and BA in English and Spanish as well as K-12 certification in Spanish and ESOL. These degrees have enabled me to gain understanding in many areas of language and English skills such as grammar, writing and research papers. Over the past nine years I have taught and tutored students in English, ESL and Spanish.
I love teaching and helping students to reach their fullest potential. Since each student learns differently, I believe the most successful education involves discovering each student's learning style and strengths to best enhance them as well as identifying weaknesses to develop strategies to develop them. I am patient, dedicated and considerate. I believe that ... read more

I excelled as a mathematics major at The College of New Jersey, receiving numerous awards and induction into both Pi Mu Epsilon, the national honorary mathematics society, and Phi Beta Kappa, the most prestigious liberal arts honor society in the country. I have 4 years of experience tutoring students in mathematics at both the high school and college level. In the fall I will begin the PhD program in pure mathematics at the University of Massachusetts - Amherst.
When tutoring a student, my goal is to help the student come to the solution of a problem through already existing knowledge. I ask questions which help relate a difficult problem to one the student already knows how to solve, and I gently lead them in the direction of the answer without ever explicitly giving it to them myself.

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. I strive to advance in everything I do, including my education. While working full-time, I pursued a law degree in the evening, both as an attempt to further my career, and gain all the associated intangibles of higher education. I cherish the opportunity to apply my skills for your benefit, and more so, the ultimate benefit of your clients.
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 b ... read more

My teaching strategy can be summed up in two words: encouragement and enthusiasm. I believe that once I have given a student the tools to succeed, he or she can do so - with enough encouragement. My students at Indiana University have all noted on their course evaluations that my encouraging and positive attitude has helped them improve their reading and writing skills. I also believe that in a tutor, enthusiasm for the subject matter is key. I am incredibly enthusiastic about reading, writing, and grammar, among other things; I know that I pass this enthusiasm on to my students. Once students are enthusiastic about a subject area, they are much more likely to work hard and succeed in that subject. My main goal as a tutor is to make sure that students are excited and confident about the subject, so that once they have the skills to succeed, they can do so.

I believe that a solid and rounded education is the foundation for any society and that education begins with an individual. This belief drives my number objective: to teach to the student. For me, it means recognizing the unique abilities and personalities of each student to properly develop and manage a learning strategy for them in order to make measurable gains. I only compare a student against his or her own self so that they realize the only measure that matters is their personal improvement.
My tutoring career began as an honors research student in college. I shared my skills and passion for French and history in plain and easy to grasp concepts that even helped "non-language" types to succeed. Furthering my foundation in teaching methods I pursued my Master's degree in teaching a second language while serving as a graduate. I accepted a fellowship to teach middle school and ... read more

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 enter the academic world once again -this time as the teacher - I am currently in the middle of getting my certificate for subbing, as well as seeking employment/ my certificate through Teach for America. I have gained experience that has helped me prepare to be a fantastic tutor: I took my PRAXIS exam and scored 90% on all three subject matters, I have tutored special needs students at the high school level, I have tutored ESL, and have been both a day camp and wildnerness guide, leading and teaching people of all ages and backgrounds. I love helping people reach their full potential. My goal is to see the proud expression on a student's face that says "I get it!"

A Little Bit About Me...

As a teacher I worked with many different programs and education philosophies. I believe that children can and will learn although it may take experimentation to discover their learning processes and what will work for them.
I taught Elementary Education in both Camden City Schools and Pennsauken Schools as a class room teacher and as a long-term sub for more than 10 years from 1974 through 1985. I tutored for Learning World Tutoring agency from 1974 through 1986 in all subjects and levels K-12. I have recently applied for my highly qualified endorsement in Middle School Language Arts. I am an author with a published reference book on writing the short story and have had more than 125 stories published as well as hundreds of essays and articles. I was a columnist for 9 years.

I feel my teaching style is student-centered, enthusiastic, and focused. I love working with children and young adults. My extensive coaching background allows me the skill of being able to motivate and build a child's self esteem by setting realistic academic goals. Children reach their fullest potential when tasks are challenging, but not overwhelming. Through guidance and positive reinforcement, students can far exceed what they ever thought possible.
I taught 9th and 10th grade English at the Secondary level at Washington Twp. High School for two years, as well as completed my student teaching there. I left when I got married to teach in Maryland for four years, and then moved home again. I tutored for approximately a year and then found a job at Clayton High School. I taught 7th, 8th and all high school level Special Education English classes as well as 7th grade Regular Ed ... read more
