More About This Tutor...

I attended several schools to achieve my undergraduate degrees, both of which I worked hard to excel at the University level. Attending graduate school at Binghamton University truly prepared me for academia, requiring many research papers and essays as well as honing my knowledge in psychology, the arts, human development, english, and biology. I have tutored, un-officially, all during my college years, forming study groups to better help my peers, as well as having volunteer positions tutoring in math and english.
I love to teach and see the ideas light up the eyes of the person who suddenly got a concept. I think teaching should be adaptable and should fit the learning style of the student. Visual tasks, memory games, and hands-on-learning are, in my opinion, the best way to help someone truly learn (versus rote memory). I think that with the right guidance and put in the r ... read more

I completed my bachelor degree in English in three and a half years at Bucknell University, and this has trained me in writing, literary analysis, and oral communication. While at Bucknell, I spent four months tutoring children at a local elementary school in grades 3-5 in math, science, and reading. I, also, completed Bucknell’s Writing Center four month training course for tutoring in all types of writing. I spent a full year tutoring peers, underclassmen, and even graduate students in their writing process. Finally, for the last three years, I have taught techniques of interpreting the Bible to college and high school students at my local church in both group and one-on-one settings.
I have a passion for teaching people things that I love to do. I love to write, to analyze literature, and to solve problems. I bring energy and patience to the learning experience, and I am able to ... read more

Education and educating oneself is incessant. As an individual and as a human being, he or she must not stop learning. This concept had driven me to obtain two degrees--- Bachelor's of Arts in English and Master's of Arts in English which enabled me to obtain more understanding the beauty of teaching, that was why I tutored grammar and its rules to High School students in the community. I understood that I loved teaching because I enjoyed what I did. It was fulfilling. This experience had inspired me more to teach English and literature subjects to college students. The school where I taught had provided me seminars, symposiums on teaching styles and techniques to enrich my teaching skills.
My passion is teaching. I enjoy and love sharing my knowledge with the youth. I am willing to help and spend time with your child to obtain his goal for academic excellence and success. As a te ... read more
