More About This Tutor...

First teaching job was in a school for severely autistic children. After being there for a year I taught in a residential home for boys. This was challenging but probably one of my favorite jobs as a teacher. Because of the distance from home to work (about 1-1/2 hrs.), I applied at an urban school 20 minutes from my home. My first job there was managing the Young Parents Program. This was a program for high school girls who were pregnant or had already had a child. This program allowed the young girls to attend school. Due to budget restrictions it was cut. I was offered a position as a special education teacher in the high school. I have been doing that for the past 15 years. I taught American History, Geography, World History, Government, English, Reading, Reading Intervention and Wilson Reading. I retired this past June and moved from Connecticut to Asheville.

A Little Bit About Me...

From my many years of experience I have learned that the most important aspect of teaching style is to stay in contact with each student. Educational psychologists have demonstrated that students of all ages have an inherent need to have a personal yet professional relationship with their instructors, and I have seen this work in action. While teaching in the classroom I made it a point to get to know each of my students. I’ve contacted each of my students in some way on a daily basis in my online courses as well. Many of my students have thanked me for this dynamic student-teacher relationship, and this will be no less the case as I tutor yourself or your child.
While living in San Antonio, Texas, I served my students as an adjunct instructor of American History at St. Mary’s University and San Antonio College. In 2006 I began facilitating courses online for Axia College of Univer ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Being a mother of three adult children and a new grandmother, I adore children. Teaching Sunday School over many years has also brought me great joy. I also personally relate to a child's individual method of learning because I truly believe we all learn differently. There are no stupid or dumb children, only unique minds. Being patient, kind, and encouraging are only a few of my strengths, and I believe I can help any child reach their potential, even when they do not.
I have two adult children who have had learning disabilities while growing up, and fully understand a parent's frustration in encouraging their child over these particular hurdles. I have a BS in Business Administration and achieved my degree over the period of nine years while working and raising my family. In addition, I have volunteered as a Sunday School teacher over a thirty year period, teaching ages 2-12 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My experiences have taught me that a cookie-cutter teaching style is not suitable for every individual. My responsibility is to quickly identify the students weaknesses and turn them into their STRENGTH! I am a every interactive teacher. It is my strong belief that anyone can succeed with the proper motivation, reinforcement and tools. My tutoring style emphasizes the student as an active participant in the learning process. With an approach that is clear, reliable, friendly, and personal, I look forward to helping a student succeed in their academic career. I do not have one specific teaching style, but rather have several styles that I implement based on each students specific needs.
I understand that finding the right tutor can be confusing and time consuming. My specialty is to offer a customized experience to each student. I recently graduated 'Summa Cum Laude' fro ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always felt the need and want to help others, whether educationally or socially. As an immigrant who had to learn a new educational system, language, and lifestyle, I know first-hand how difficult a true and successful learning process can be. I believe that my strong communication skills and a patient persona are critical in helping someone achieve educational success. In recognizing each child's individual skills and abilities, I only hope to help them recognize their own strengths and weaknesses to achieve improvement.
My love for reading and writing from a young age followed me through high school and college. By excelling in various courses, I had the opportunity to tutor a myriad of subjects in high school (particularly Science and Writing), and serve as a Writing Consultant at Bryant University since Freshman year. Outside of school, I have also assisted my friends a ... read more

I am a recent graduate of Eastern Connecticut State University with a BA in History and Social Sciences and a total GPA of 3.57. This plan of study exposed me to a wide variety of courses aside from history including psychology, English, computer skills, and sociology. Additionally, I have worked for more than 2.5 years as a teacher's aide. I began at LEARN and I currently work for Waterford Public Schools. My most recent position was in the high school; however, this next school year I will be located at Clark Lane Middle School.
I believe that children have different learning styles but they all benefit from positive encouragement from their teachers. I am patient and easy going and I enjoy helping a student reach their fullest potential. It is rewarding for both myself and the child and I feel such positive interactions can make a difference in their learning experience.

I recently graduated cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with two Bachelors of Science in Marine Geology and Maritime Law. I teach sailing and environmental education in the summers. This means very little however as I aspire, one day, to become a lighthouse keeper. Sadly, few can find such a position these days. I enjoy writing, science, mathematics, literature and most all music.
When I taught sailing to young kids, I used to dress up like a pirate. I have lots of energy. I know I'm doing my job right when kids start laughing. When I taught to teenagers, I kept in mind my own experiences at that age. If I'm helping a student study hard on that big, important test that might have the ability to crush the student's soul - I bust out my acoustic guitar and sing about how It's The End of The World As We Know It (And This Test Means Very Little In The Long Run ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Inspiring young people is what I do best. However, different methods are to be used for different individuals. Some students require a more incremental approach, covering material at a slower pace or more than once. Other students learn quicker and get frustrated if things are repeated. My job is to adapt to the particular individual and use the method that facilitates best learning. A generic approach that I always use is systemic: (1) provide or cover an overview of a particular topic and (2) dive deep into the details or substance of the material. I believe it is important for students to conceptually understand the substance of the material along with seeing what role the concepts play from a larger perspective. In the end however, students are ultimately responsible for how successful they are. I, as a tutor, am just a facilitator––making “inspiration” the most important goa ... read more
