My experience working with children is in the area of those with mental health issues, most of which have learning disabilities as well. I love my work and I love children. I believe that all children can learn when you consider what kind of learner they are. I believe that most children have to experience learning through many facets; hearing, touching, seeing and discovery. I also believe that children need to be empowered to learn so that through daily activity their confidence and self-esteem is cultivated, nurtured so that potential can be met and possibly exceeded. I strive to assist individuals to meet and exceed their potential, build confidence and empower people to be autonomous. I entered college in my late twenties and have been involved in some aspect of learning ever since. I was able to complete my BA in Psychology and Religion as Cum Laude and my MA in Counseling Ps

I love teaching and working with students. My teaching style most closely aligns with the demonstrator style. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. My teaching is performed with patience, persistence, and compassion. I am very easy going. As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned a BS degree in Computer Science and have worked as a software engineer and tutor. Some of my mathematical skills include algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability & statics, discreet math, and differential equations.

I believe that children learn best through continual interaction, repetition and positive re-enforcement. I enjoy teaching across all subject matter and believe that practice and hard work produces the best results. Every child is a unique individual with a history of different influences that developed their specific learning abilities. I believe an effective teacher will strive to discover those keys to unlock each students potential to exceed. All students can excel when provided with the correct learning tools and positive interactive secessions. I strive to always project a can-do attitude in order to bring out the best qualities and knowledge in each of my students.

I have just retired from teaching math at the middle school level and an adjunct math instructor at the college level for 35 years. I have tutored the past 5 years of my career privately and with students with disabilities at Centenary College, Hackettstown, NJ. With all this experience and knowledge about teaching various levels, a professor at Berkeley College of NJ and I have recently been giving presentations to NJ Math Teachers and will to teachers teaching in the Correctional Facilities in NJ. I wish to apply all my experiences teaching to more tutoring. I enjoy meeting new students who have trouble learning math and seeing themselves light up after a session or two of tutoring. I believe in the discovery method of learning and questioning to have the student aware of where he/she is having difficulty with math. Then we work from there and the needs of the student so the student

I earned my BS in physics and spent over a year working on medical device research. As an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh I spent some time in the Physics Undergraduate Lab helping students in the introductory courses. I also spent time as a Team Leader for Mission Acceptance, a program that pairs successful college students with local high school students and provides mentoring in the college selection and admissions process. These experiences allowed me to learn my audience and assess their needs and also understand the mentality of high school students. I loved working with the students in the Mission Acceptance program. I worked as a team leader, so I had the opportunity to work with a group of fellow mentors as well as students, which provided me experience with a variety of different students. I learned that each student has his or her own path to understanding the ma

Being exposed and working at different school districts and states allowed me to learn different styles, therefore, I was able to evaluate what works and adapt the techniques to my own style. Education allowed me to learn techniques and I do claim that I was successful leading a classroom and learning was achieved by my studens. I do believe that education is always open for improvement. I learned teaching and assessment techniques and I learned to modify teaching style according to students needs. I have ten years experience working as a substitute teacher for the public school system, in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, I also have there years experience working as a tutor in the state of New York, one to one, with failing students, teaching reading and math to students that range from K to 12th grade.

I always begin a class with in upbeat, fun atmosphere. I sometimes have powerful, familiar music playing when my students walk into the classroom. (Other students walking by in the hall frequently stop by to see what's going on!) I have a collection of toys and noisemakers that I use in the classroom. My classroom is visually dynamic and inviting. My goal is for my students to enter to learn with smiles on their faces, and anticipation for learning something fascinating. I love to lead them to daily "Aha" moments of discovery. My sense of humor and use of cartoons maintains an involvement high. I strategize with my kids to examine the many different ways to learn, in appreciation of their various learning styles. My students are empowered to question and learn more than required. By building their trust in me, and knowing that I sincerely love being with them, true learning hap

I teach using a phenomenological approach, one that is perhaps best illustrated by the psychiatrist, Carl R. Rogers. In other words, I believe every student can be reached through open conversation and discussion. This approach requires patience, the ability to read and understand students, and the skill of relating to students' temperaments, interests, and learning styles. While I often appear laid-back to the students I teach, I am constantly conscious of my openness to students and their needs in order to direct them towards a positive learning experience. My ten years of teaching experience consists of tutoring, subbing, and teaching full time at the middle and high school levels, tutoring and teaching English to adolescents and adults in Prague, CZ, and tutoring and teaching for SAT companies.

I am just finished my first semester of student teaching and will be completing the second one in the fall, graduating in December. I have completed several hours tutoring for college of the past 3 years. I have also had two student teaching placements already. The first was in a third grade inclusion setting and the second in a k-2 life skills room. In both settings I was teaching all subjects on several different levels. I love working will all children, seeing their strengths and weaknesses. I feel that all children can learn you just have to find the best way to approach each student's individual learning style. I believe in using many different teaching styles and utilizing all the senses. My goal is to make an impact on each of my students. Helping them realize that they are

I am a firm believer in differentiation. I am a very structured instructor, but I will adjust at a moment's notice if a lesson needs to be changed to be more effective. I also believe that it is the teacher's actions that control the student's actions, and it is this believes that causes me to constantly reflect on the day's events and the student's progress. I instruct using methods that cause students to be engaged in various ways and on multiple levels. Group work and class discussions often are integrated into my daily routines. After finishing student teaching, getting certified to teach in Pennsylvania, and graduating from Moravian College, I joined Teach for America and committed two years to closing the achievement gap. I have taught 10th and 11th grade English for two years in Forrest City, AR. I have run after-school ACT prep sessions with my students, and I have worked one on
