More About This Tutor...

I am a 16 year old high school student taking my third year of Spanish, Psychology/Sociology, English, U.S History, Chemistry, and Math Reasoning. School wasn't one of my favorite places to go especially when I wasn't doing so hot in some of my classes. But then I found fun and easy ways to study. It turned out that I actually enjoyed going to school afterwards and making it a goal to get good grades. That is my goal with potential students. I want them to enjoy studying for school. Yes it may be a lot of work but the student can make it easier by using flashcards or writing down the problem until it sticks into their, whatever helps them. I want to help them to see how easy school can actually be for them. At first studying may be frustrating but the more the student and I practice, the more fun and less stressful the subject will become.

I come from a family of teachers and, like my parents, I enjoy helping others and reaching the end goal of aiding a student in attaining their own aspirations both long and short term. I understand the difficulties and frustrations that often accompany learning, however I believe that with the right positive reinforcements all students can overcome any hurdle and achieve academic success. In addition, these academic success are the kindling to creating a growing fire of self-motivation which can last a lifetime. I want to help all students in anyway possible to find the academic switch that inspires them to continue to learn and better themselves.

More About This Tutor...

I have been blessed with over twenty years of teaching experience. I am highly experienced in phonics-based instuction. My passion is in teaching reading. It brings such joy to my heart as I see the smile on the faces of my students who have begun to put letters and and sounds together to form words. I have had the wonderful opportunity of tutoring stuggling classroom students during the traditional school year, as well as running a summer tutoring program; providing enhancement in phonics, reading and math.
I love children and have a passion for teaching, learning and student success. I believe one of the first responsibilities as a teacher is to discover the learrning style of each child; visual, auditory or kinesthetic. Knowing the individual learning style of each child, I am able to enhance my teaching style and curriculum and link learning with fun.

I treat each student according to his/her needs and I look for the most effective ways he/she learns. I ask the student questions that lead to his/her discovery of the process, steps and answer to the problem. With this method the student has the satisfaction of resolving the problem, encourages him/her to continue on to more difficult ones, and gives him/her the confidence to do his/her best!

Paraprofessional training has taught me that there are 7 unique learning styles that fit every student. I configure each student's learning style through giving them a short characteristic questionnaire. I use their learning style to incorporate proven tutoring methods into our sessions so that students can learn their best and get the most out of our sessions. I very much enjoy tutoring and this is why I offer my students to email me questions or problems they might have and I will email them back promptly with step by step instructions in how to solve the problem. I do this because I believe every child is entitled to a great education and because I know knowledge is a gateway to succeed, it is power, and ultimately it is priceless.
