I know the basic moves and strategies. My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment. I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings.

I enjoy working with those who have a desire to learn. I understand that education is not only an end in itself, but a means to accomplish life goals. My objective as a tutor is to help students meet their goals and to gain the knowledge they seek. I am very patient. Few things are more satisfying than helping a student gain pride in their accomplishments. I have a diverse background because I believe diversity of experience enriches life tremendously. I have degrees in business and engineering. I have also sought out writing assignments in past jobs, giving me insight into grammar and composition. My past tutoring experience is primarily in computer software and reading/writing, though I have a strong command of basic math subjects such as algebra.

I have been working at the same local elementary school since November 2006 working with EBD and VE student, tutoring students one on one and in small groups of up to four and five. I have an A.A. degree in General Education and Music and plenty of experience tutoring elementary school age. I love using manipulatives with all subjects. It makes learning fun even for those that are frustrated with the subject. Since everyone learns in a different way I need to teach the material in different ways to find out which way is best for that student. By using manipulatives with verbal directions and giving examples for them to see covers the bases of physical, visual, and aural learning students. I was not very good in certian subjects like math in elementary school and I had to come up with ways to learn the material on my own. This has helped me to teach students that are like me when I was

Good English instructors should persist in cultivating knowledge in the disciplines of reading and writing, as well as teaching. They should also develop insights into the obstacles faced by a wide range of students and be able to provide specially formulated guidance necessary to motivate them. As a tutor, more than just teaching students how to pass their assigned material, my goal is to encourage students to realize their full potential as scholars and proactive citizens. As an Honors Program graduate, my BA in English literature has motivated me to develop strong reading and writing skills. While writing research essays and my Honors thesis, I developed a critical understanding of grammar, sentence structure, as well as how to develop a strong, provocative thesis and support it with evidence. For the past several years, I have helped my fellow students study various subjects, partic

I encourage students to be well versed in the basics; reading, writing and arithmetic. I am also a believer in making sure students take as many college ready courses as possible. The full math and science venue are of utmost importance. At the community college, I acted in an advisory capacity, one-on-one, to the high school students that I dealt with. I am a technical and business oriented individual, having an MS in Civil Engineering and an MBA in Finance. I worked my way through school, having started at a community college. My last position, Program Director, was at that same community college, Monroe Community College, in Rochester, NY. With my education and work experience, I am well versed in several areas of science, business and math. During the last 5 years as Program Director, I created and delivered SAT review courses for high school students and vocational construction cour

As a graduate student in New York City, I learned a unique way to teach children. This method involves presenting material in a clear and concise fashion, and then asking the student questions as the lesson continues. This method of continual questioning keeps the student alert and reveals whether or not they comprehend the material. I adopted this method to counter the less effective lecture style of teaching. I have taught private lessons to young students throughout my college career. Being a musician, a lot of our instruction is done on a one-to-one basis. During these years I developed an ability to make lessons not only educational but also fun. I believe education is most successful when it is presented in an interesting format. Aside from my experience in the music field, I have studied most other academic fields as a college student, including algebra, precalculus, biology, Eng

I was taught by my mentor to allow the tutee to teach themselves. Instead of making corrections for them, it was our writing center's policy to insist that each student held their own pen and made their own corrections. We would engage in discussion and challenge them to spot their own mistakes, acting as an invisible hand guiding them towards the knowledge that would serve them throughout their academic career instead of us becoming a quick fix for the present tense. Nothing is better than the look of recognition on a tutee's face when the light bulb goes off and you know that they simply "got it." While I was employed as a writing tutor in college, I was also taking additional courses to improve my skill set as a tutor. We focused on interpersonal communication and reaching out to students regardless of any baggage brought into the tutoring session. I worked as an undergraduate teachin

I prefer inductive teaching rather than imposing lectures. An interactive style enables students to feel they are a part of the process and it personalizes the activities so that a feeling of success is ever present to solidify the foundations upon which to build a substantial knowledge base. I take the students from where they are to where they could be and urge them with positive feedback to reach goals they might have felt were otherwise unattainable. I treat them with respect which is returned without reservation. Having been a secondary school educator for so many years, I have observed the changes in trends in teaching as well as in learning. I have adapted my personal views to change with the trends so that I could incorporate novel techniques and personal creativity to enable all students to achieve at least to the height of their abilities.

Coming from a family comprised exclusively of teachers, education has been a highly valued and often discussed aspect of my life. While I chose not to earn my degree in education, I made sure teaching was still a part of my personal development through substitute teaching and tutoring while traveling abroad. Today I continue to enjoy learning and increasing my grasp on a wide variety of subjects. The world of today is marked by an over abundance of information. An internet search on any subject yields thousands of results, often with conflicting ideas. Critical thinking is now more important than ever. I take this point of view into tutoring sessions in that I challenge the student to understand the process, as opposed to just memorizing the steps. Through strengthening general thought processes and decision making skills, the student benefits in all subjects while learning a particular

I believe that education is the key to success for today’s youth. I hope to motivate students to develop their natural and inner strengths and abilities to discover what truly inspires them. I have found that interaction is the key to successful learning rather than traditional dictation. As an adult I have realized the importance of a good academic foundation, and have developed and attained skills over the years that give me an outstanding ability to communicate effectively with students and secure their interest and attention. I have never found more truly fulfilling work than in teaching. I am an accomplished academic that began working with children and teaching at 15 years of age. I am an enthusiastic educator with a heart for developing students’ minds and encouraging learning in a tough society.
