A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring for both adults and adolescents for over five years in a variety of fields. I develop individual learning plans that are designed based on each students strengths and learning style. Additionally, I have found that making the material relevant to life outside of the classroom results in greater mastery. The material will be taught so that it is easily transferable to other areas. I have experience helping students with and without special needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching motto is: Learning is fun. You can achieve anything you set your mind to. Hello! I became a teacher in 2003 after spending several years in Retail Management. Although I loved the challenge and fast pace of working in retail, I didn't really feel as though I was making a huge difference in anyone's life by having retail as a career. So, I decided that I would return to school and pursue a degree in something that did make a difference in others' lives. I had always wanted to be a teacher from the time I was a little girl, as my teachers all had a profound effect on my life and I wanted to pass on that effect to other kids who may be struggling in school as I once did. This is nothing more gratifying to me than to see my student's knowledge grow and thrive. I love the moment the student says "a-ha" :) . I am a very thorough teacher who is always making sure that what I teac ... read more

Tutoring for YOU with compassion and excellence

I work with students on their level, and then assist students to build skills at the next level. I work to match my instructional style so that it corresponds to the student's learning style and comfort level. Moreover, it is important to relate new information to something that is familiar to the student; this is also how I help students to learn.
I have taught a variety of subjects, and I have worked individuals from elementary school through college. I am currently working with Rochester Educational Opportunity Center as a part time instructor. In addition to this, I teach as a volunteer math tutor to adults who are preparing to their GED and TABE exams.

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : Certified in the Wilson Language Program,2001, a reading program that is designed to teach reading skills to students with Dyslexia and other language processing difficulties. I have successfully taught from this program for 10 years (including summer programs)to students from 3rd-12th grade.

I teach according to the style that best works for the child, and I take the first couple of tutoring sessions to figure out a child's strengths, weaknesses, interests, and most effective learning style. Regardless of style, however, I believe that a multisensory approach to teaching is best for a child, as it allows teachers to tap into areas of strength of which the student may not be aware. I feel that it is essential to develop a strong rapport with a student in order for positive learning to take place. I also make sure that when I teach a specific subject that I have all the knowledge and tools that are necessary to develop a child's maximum learning potential, and if I feel I need more tools and knowledge, I delve into additional resources. I work as a team player with the student, parent, and any other person who the parent wishes to involve in order to take into account the chi ... read more
