I love teaching and working with children and young adults. I truly believe that everyone has the ability to learn, but it’s just a matter of which way works best for them. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide a strong commitment to enhancing and supporting the education of a child. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. My style of tutoring involves the delivery of a one on one service focused on learning and skills development. As a graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Crime, Law, & Justice, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math, English, histor

I use a lot of repetition and the asking of questions to ensure that students are learning concepts. I also try to give them analogies to help them remember things.

I entered college in my late twenties and have been involved in some aspect of learning ever since. I was able to complete my BA in Psychology and Religion as Cum Laude and my MA in Counseling Psychology with a similar GPA. Since graduating I have had the opportunity to work with children and adolescents in a counseling capacity which often mirrors mentoring, teaching and leading. I obviously have experience in psychology and religion. As well, I have extensive experience in writing for my career, assessments, treatment plans, progress notes, etc, and in school with the many research papers, summaries, reviews, etc. This has allowed me to hone my grammatical skills, comprehension and analytical skills. My experience working with children is in the area of those with mental health issues, most of which have learning disabilities as well. I love my work and I love children. I believ

I earned my BS in physics and spent over a year working on medical device research. As an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh I spent some time in the Physics Undergraduate Lab helping students in the introductory courses. I also spent time as a Team Leader for Mission Acceptance, a program that pairs successful college students with local high school students and provides mentoring in the college selection and admissions process. These experiences allowed me to learn my audience and assess their needs and also understand the mentality of high school students. I loved working with the students in the Mission Acceptance program. I worked as a team leader, so I had the opportunity to work with a group of fellow mentors as well as students, which provided me experience with a variety of different students. I learned that each student has his or her own path to understanding the ma

I love teaching and working with students. My teaching style most closely aligns with the demonstrator style. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. My teaching is performed with patience, persistence, and compassion. I am very easy going. As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education.

I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor. As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics.

I come from a teaching family, and continue to learn from teachers myself. I feel that because I am still eager to continue to learn new things, I can appreciate a good teacher. I myself need good teachers, and I would not provide a student with anything but that. I am a hard worker and give 110% for every job that needs to be done. While at college, I was a member of the Americorps program in which I completed over 300 hours of community service. During that service, I had roles as both a student and a teacher. I have the experience of working with all types of people and children, and sincerely enjoy working with people in a teaching setting. I am confident that I have what it takes to be the teacher you need.

First I like to get to know a student and discover all of their skills and strengths. I start with what they know, so they will immediately reach success. I slowly add new information at the rate that your child is able to successfully process the new information, stress-free with enjoyable games, lessons and activities. My other strengths include: organization skills, testing skills made-easy, reading/vocabulary/comprehension improvement, usually leading to a step or more above grade level. I have a wide range of experience. For seven years, I have taught Special needs with children struggling with Autism and other emotional challenges. I also taught gifted and talented students in this school as well. I then taught Kindergarten in a private school in Texas where, after school, I also tutored Spanish I and all academics, as well.
