Study Skills is one of my top subjects! I am experienced in determining a person's study abilities and tailoring a program that fits their needs.

I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem.
I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in all teaching styles, especially since no one child is the same; everyone is unique and different. I am patient and considerate while providing the best education to students. My approach to teaching is hands on, and practice makes perfect. To teach is to actually touch a life forever. I actually teach children the way I would want someone to teach my own children. I also repeat and use many samples to make sure the child actually understands before moving on to the next topic or subject.
As a graduate from the distinguished Norfolk State University, I have a drive and passion to work with children. I have earned my BS in 2007, and since then have worked several jobs in the school system. I have immense communication skills, writing, and organizations skills.

I have always been a very hardworking student. In high school, I graduated 15th in a class of 301 and took college level courses in Calculus, Chemistry, and English my junior and senior years. I have earned my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with an Emphasis in Mathematics. I enjoy math immensely. However, since I completed my degree online, I also have extensive experience in writing and grammar skills. I taught preschool for one year, and have been working as a nanny/tutor for a student for 2 years.
I have found that any student can learn. The key to a student's success is that education must be approached in the correct manner for that individual student. Not all students learn in the same fashion, and that must be considered in planning and implementing lessons. I believe that education needs to be approached in a fun way that coincides with the student's indi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During my journey to complete my B.S. of Biology at The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey I was inspired to help others educate themselves. I informally tutored my peers in biology and writing courses. I was recommended to become a writing tutor at this institution but was graduating too early to complete the required qualifying courses. I edited a plethora of biology lab reports as well as research papers for various majors. I completed my Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) with the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). I have studied chemical and biological sciences for 4 years and completed an exam that assesses my knowledge I have acquired from such courses.
Through my experience with Big Brothers Big Sisters and MAXIM Healthcare Services, I have tutored many children with different educational backgrounds that required different concentrated attention. I gau ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have my BS in Psychology and BA in Art. In May 2003, I received my Masters of Education (M.Ed.) from the University of Maryland in College Park. My work towards this degree provided me with an extensive understanding of scientifically based research, lesson plan development, and teacher training skills. I have worked as an educational researcher on three large-scale government grants studying students’ language and literacy development, and reading motivation, in preschool through college.
I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated teacher. I want students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. I have focused on instilling in my students a love of learning. I believe it takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a student. Therefore, I have learned the val ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring is very important to me. I learn as well as teach through my process. Although I believe grammar is very important, I aim to teach organizational skills within any student's writing. I have noticed that most students have more difficulty with making connections within their own writing than with grammar. Furthermore, I find an immense pleasure in successfully tutoring a student. I understand that students can feel nervous, angry, and upset when they are being tutored; I make sure to consider their feelings so I can gain their trust. A student who trusts their instructor is always more willing to learn. Finally, if I can make a person happier about learning then I consider myself successful.
I am a senior at the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey who will be graduating this year. I hold a 3.9 GPA in the Literary Studies program. On top of this, I will be graduating with ... read more

I love to teach and help others in general. I always had difficulty when I was younger finding a tutor or some help in my studies that I could understand easily. I am a very patient and have a great sense of humor that come in handy during subjects of frustration. I believe if you can bring a child into their comfort zone and put the directions in the most simple fashion, a child can learn anything! I'd love to turn a subject they avoid into a subject to brag about...
I just graduated with a BA in Psychology and are two courses short of a minor in Spanish and Sociology. I've always been very strong in the English/Language Arts/Writing areas as well.

I have a B.S. degree in Meteorology from SUNY College at Oneonta which required a great deal of mathematics, especially in calculus. I have taken calculus I, II, III, ordinary differential equations, general physics I & II, general chemistry I & II, and number theory. Other courses taken that involved mathematics were: physical meteorology, atmospheric dynamics I & II, weather analysis and forecasting I & II, micrometeorology, and remote sensing of the atmosphere. With these courses, I have developed a strong understanding in both math and science. I interned at Teterboro Airport as a Meteorologist in 2005; forecasting for local businesses.

LOUD & LIVELY! I like to make the lessons I teach interesting and involvement is key. If I can educate and entertain (a tool I use), I command participation, respect and learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent the last fourteen years as an educator teaching Language Arts and Social Studies at the intermediate and middle school level. In the last two years, I have acted as a Literacy coach in my district giving assistance to elementary, intermediate and middle school teachers to enhance their reading and writing lessons in their classrooms. Much of my time as a coach was devoted to researching the best methods to helping students become proficient and confident readers and writers.
I have taught a wide range of learners in my fourteen years of teaching and worked extremely hard to reach every single one of them. I have collected a wide variety of methods in my teaching tool kit to make the concepts easy to understand. It is important to me to design the lessons around the interests of the student in order to make the experience an enjoyable one. I am a very caring and co ... read more
