People say I approach all things with total enthusiasm.

I use the heuristic style - teach a little; now you try it! The student learns best what they learn from within. At my English boarding school, that is the way we were taught, and it worked. Also, I show them different study methods to see what works for them. I have read widely on psychology. Early on, I assess a student's best learning mode - visual, aural, spatial, numerical, verbal, etc., and play to it. While being active in drama I learned how to 'read' the hearers and viewers. Many of my former students are teachers. Sometimes they recommend students to me when their students pass beyond the teacher's comfort zone. Occasionally student's stop seeing me, and months or years later I hear things like: 'Guess what, I made 100% on the final.'; 'I was the only grad. school entrant who passed the exemption test for Physical Chemistry'; 'I made the Headmaster's list for th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a passion for teaching and have always sought in all of my past positions to implement programs where I can help enhance the performance of the department through various new hire and recurrent training. i always volunteer at my kids' schools for any programs where I can help educate the students in my areas of expertise. As a father of five kids both teaching and relating with kids have become second nature I recently walked into my seventeen year old daughter's high school and whilst walking through the hallways and visiting the various teachers I felt the burning desire to seek a change in career and become a teacher and I sincerely would love to be given an opportunity to do so.
I have a record of outstanding success in academics, I have always been at the top of my class and very strong and flawless grades in English and Literature as well as other subjects. ... read more

I have been a camp counselor, tutor, coach and teacher. I have taught English in Ghana, preschool in Argentina and special education in the Bronx. I have taught and worked with children of all levels, ages and backgrounds. I am very strong in writing and communication, but have also taught math up to fifth grade. I have taught science and social studies up to fifth grade as well.
I believe all children can learn, but that all children learn differently. Having taught special education, I had a range of grade levels in my class. Very often the students would be spread out over three grade levels. Because of this, I am extremely good at tailoring my instruction to different levels and learning types. I try many different approaches to cater to different learning styles. Ultimately, I choose the method based on it's success and also how much the student enjoys it. Ultimately, the stud ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a chemistry graduate student, I have held the following roles: Senior Teaching Assistant for Undergraduate Organic Chemistry Labs, Teaching Assistant for Organic Chemistry Major's Labs, Teaching Assistant for Organic Chemistry I and II. I have extensive experience in tutoring; however I specialize in organic chemistry due to my background and teaching style. I have tutored individually, in groups, and even whole classrooms. I have substituted as a teacher for organic chemistry professors. I have excellent communication with my students and I have only had one student receive a grade lower than a C in organic chemistry while I've tutored them.
My teaching philosophy centers on individual learning. The first priority is to determine what method is best for getting an individual to process information. The second step is then to breakdown the material and removing the myth that a t ... read more

The type of instructor I am working to become and remain does not view teaching as a job but, views teaching as an ongoing mission. My job will be to ensure that all students learn and not just to teach. The knowledge conveyed will become applicable philosophies and skills in the lives of my students that can shape their towns, communities, and even possibly the world. To accomplish this I will provide my students with engaging, meaningful activities, high expectations, and develop productive relationships with my students to become the interpersonal instructor I strive to be. All of these aforementioned goals will be achieved through integration of technology, arts, and events that involve students in the community.
As a recipient of an Associates Degree Summa Cum Laude; I have and more importantly my students have experienced success within and outside of the classroom. Twenty-o ... read more

My formal experiences as an educator began as an intern at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary where I educated visiting students on natural history and biology. This was when I realized how much I enjoyed teaching and the mutual learning environment. Since then I've had the opportunity teaching at the middle grades (full-time teacher at a local middle school), high school (through a fellowship at a local university), and college level (as an instructor at a local university). Although my bachelors degree was in environmental studies, I have an extensive background in teaching science and mathematics.
I love having students learn through a hands-on approach and incorporating as much "real-world" scenarios in my teaching as possible. If students are unable to associate with what they are learning, they are often incapable of really understanding the concepts and retaining what they learn. I als ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children with Autism, behavior disorders, and learning disabilities. I use applied behavior analysis and create goals for each child. I am flexible, willing to modify my approach. I want children to feel comfortable in my presence. I practice wait time and patience with each child. I feel that tutoring is a very rewarding job. My education and experience has provided me with many techniques for teaching. I cannot wait to get my Masters degree, so I will have more opportunities to teach.
I was Lead Tutor at Armstrong Atlantic State University (2001-2003) in the Writing Center. I had previously tutored at Greenfield Community College in the Learning Center (1996-1998). My passion is to teach children with special needs (Autism). My BA degree was in Psychology (2008). I have tutored in in English, Psychology, and Biology.

My teaching style, is to find the way the child learns best. Math can be taught thru several different methods or strategies. I really enjoy children and have found that it is just a minor thing or so that causes them to not like math, but when they see that there is more than one way to solve problems they change their minds. I reallly do feel that one on one teaching does help students to grasp the information, then they are more apt to show off their new found skills.
I currently am employed by the Chatham County School System as a long term substitute and as a Math Resource teacher. I was picked up this years by East Broad Elementary School to help many students to pass the CRCT. I have references letters from the Principals and several math teachers at the same school. I amd will soon be graduating from Armstrong Atlantic with a Masters of Art and Teaching, with concentrations ... read more

I like to get to know the weaknesses of each of my students to get a common ground with them first. Then i try to break down the subject as simple as i can. I like to work with all ages. I know that all students are bright and different in some kind of way; therefore, to me I think all students can learn. I really care about each of my students. I make sure that each of my student have a great experience with me and have great understanding of their main concerns. I believe we need good honest teachers to educate our future children and for that cause i strive to do my best at my job.

My persistent love for learning and helping others learn has motivated me to further my education by obtaining a M.S. degree in brain research with a concentration on teaching and learning. The knowledge I have gained in this program and throughout my teaching career has equipped me with the skills and resources needed to assist all types of learners with their goal of academic success.

Hey there. I am a medical school drop out. I have my bachelors in biology, with minors in botany, chemistry and economics. I wandered through many subjects and interest in school. I have tutored fellow students in my undergrad and in med school. I have a good understanding of algebra, economics, chemistry, physiology and writing papers. I cannot tell you I will be the best tutor on your roster, but I have crossed paths with many students that were ready to throw in the towel and have helped them bring their average to a b level before the semester was out.
I do enjoy helping students with their problems. I have a technique of visualization. for example, which is the first example I use. I tell the student to think of a tree. in the seconds you think of a tree, you don't think of just the tree. you think of the roots, the trunk, the limbs, the branches, the leaves. then you think o ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy working with children and would love to go back to school and obtain my Masters in education. I feel that each child has their own way of connecting to education and it's a magic moment when you, the teacher, find and help them utilize that connection. I am calm and patient, bubbly and outgoing, creative and responsible. Most importantly, I love helping people and being an individual that can make a difference.
I graduated with a double major from Fairfield University where I was involved with volunteer groups that tutored middle school aged children from surrounding areas. Over the years I have also spent time as a nanny and have been in charge of homework and school projects. I am confident that my nurturing and energetic personality is the perfect combination to engage children to want to excel.

A Little Bit About Me...

I wouldn't have a "professional" description for teaching style as my education was solidly based in the sciences. However, I believe that by teaching intuitive thought processes and critical thinking skills, students can easily adapt to the tasks given be they in science or liberal arts.
While planning for a career in medicine, I obtained a BS in biology with a minor in Chemistry. During the application and acceptance process I was an adjunct faculty member at a local technical college. My courses taught were remedial Algebra, biology, and anatomy and physiology. During the hours between classes I was a paid Tutor in the college's learning assistance center.
