I will give your child my best effort

I have always endeavored to excel academically and so sought after and received a top-level education at Duke University. Having a love of language and having a desire to be able to teach at all levels, I obtained an MA in English from the UNC-G. I have had 43 years of teaching and tutoring at all levels, elementary through college. I have taught high school English, college English, SAT Prep, and GRE Prep---both the verbal and the math (I scored almost 800 on the math section). I was responsible for setting up a city-wide tutor-training program for children with learning disabilities, wrote the curriculum, interviewed and selected the tutors and staff, and served as the administrator and supervisor.
My primary aim in tutoring students is to assess exactly where they are academically, including reading level and math skills. Then I teach to their exact level. I help them to set up ... read more

I have lead several study groups with varying success. Students need to discover that the education they seek is well within their grasp. I have tutor students of various ages and learning levels, no one is unteachable and every student has the potential to grasp any concept. Students need the proper motivation and learning to be fun and engaging. When abstract concepts are related to real world subject matter students grasp the ideas with more success. It is my goal to help your learner find uses for everything they feel that they learn in school without purpose.
I believe in the constructionist theory of education, children come with some knowledge of the world and need that to be the basis of anything new they learn. Build on the ideas they already have and make learning fun.

More About This Tutor...

Over the years of my tutoring children, I have developed a certain way of approaching all my students. I believe that every child is unique and learns in a certain way. So when I first meet my student, I evaluate their favorite way of learning and the goals they and their parents want to achieve. Then I develop a easy to follow learning agenda that we will follow. Then I use multiple ways of teaching from using reading, writing, multiple examples, repetition, visuals, drawing, and flashcards. Throughout my students learning experience, I always make sure they are having fun while they are learning, so it's an education and fun experience for all my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

In the past three years, I have gained a great deal of experience in the subject areas of English and Exceptional Student Education. My professional development trainings have increased my skills in teaching reading, writing, and grammar. For example, I use 6+1 Writing Traits to assist my students in writing and I also incorporate the Reciprocal Teaching strategies to improve their reading comprehension. During the past three years, I have also tutored high school students in a Credit Retrieval program in the area of English. I am familiar with at-home tutoring programs because this year I tutored a middle school student who was in the Hospital/Homebound program because he was temporarily disabled and could not attend school.
My teaching style is eclectic in order to meet the variety of needs of my students. The knowledge I have gained through my professional development about diff ... read more

I have learned many ways to talk to and listen to kids. I enjoy helping kids understand. I love being able to be that intermediate person that a child can come to when they know they need assistance. I'm extremely patient with children and I love to help.
I graduated with my degree in English, but I gained all of my experience through the constant observation of my mother's 20 plus years of teaching. I had first hand knowledge of her teaching styles during the 4th and 5th grade. I have adopted her styles and use it daily while I've been a teachers assistant at Project Rock South, Inc. The kids there respond to my playful yet firm style of teaching because they realize that I'm approachable and there to help them.

I use the communicative approach to teaching. I find that the student's input for a particular lesson is just as important as the instruction given to him or her. I find that this approach gives the student or students a chance to explore the exercise for a particular lesson and provide their understanding of what is being taught and what they are learning.
I have taught English for 7 years. I have taught English as a second language to students in The Czech Republic and Germany. In addition, I had been a tutor for SmartStart Tutoring School for 1 year. I taught English comprehension and grammar to elementary students. I increased the students reading comprehension skills by 25%. I enjoy teaching English and find pleasure in students success.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love spending time with children and teaching them new things. It is exciting to see children learn and make progress in school. When dealing with a child that I do not know, I like to have them talk. I think talking to children about anything, not just school, can help form a relationship with them. I also like the parents to be involved and know what their child is struggling with and what exactly they expect from me.From experience, I have realized that some teachers might teach in a way that makes it difficult for some students to learn.A tutor may be a solution to this problem.

More About This Tutor...

As I indicated, I have a B.A.in Philosophy and later studies in Art. Later, in 1975, I decided to return to obtain a DMD at BU. After that I joined the Army and served as an Army dentist. Due to events in my life following my brief sojourn in the Army, I traveled abroad to India and Asia. Upon returning, I continued to study, but this time in more spiritual matters. I currently live with my daughter and 3 grandchildren and we have a small family registered daycare. I also participate with the children. However, I do spend a few hours a day writing and I am also a webmaster.
Of the essence in tutoring is to make the subject pertinent and fun, as well as applicable to everyday life. For small children, we have phonetics to help the child master sounds and words. I do use Ipod teaching games to involve the child actively. Obviously for older children, who may have trouble expressin ... read more
