Let's make learning fun!!!

I like to do a lot of positive reinforcing and reaffirming.
I have worked with children for over 15 years. During this time I have provide homework help and tutoring in Math, Reading and Spanish. The children that I have worked with range in age from 5 to 17 years old. I have also done an extensive amount of work with infants and toddlers in the field of early learning as a nanny. My experience in working with children of so many ages has helped me to know what steps to implement in order to make children feel comfortable and confident while addressing challenges to learning materials. I have always enjoyed math and reading as a student and spent a short period of time studying Spanish abroad. During my time in college I was even more hands on with the youth enrichment at my church, working as a counselor/mentor for Vacation Bible School and the after school program.

Learning is a lifelong process!

My very first year of teaching was at the Lehigh Valley Performing Arts High School, and I also taught for two years at Northern Lehigh High School. Currently, I am resigned and staying home, but looking to work part time. I have experience teaching grades 7-12 and working with all types of students. The classes I've taught range from Honors English to a class which targeted students struggling to gain proficiency in English related PSSA skills.
Every student is unique and benefits from an individualized instruction. My style is business casual; I am firm yet warm and encouraging with students.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : TEFL certified teacher and experience teaching college students (Mathematics and Economics) at Cornell University and University of Virginia.

In my ESL classes, I try to stress communication and emphasize the skills that will help the students use the language independently rather than lecture them. I will use a similar approach with you, but will be flexible enough to adapt to your needs. I will have challenging assessments for my students to ensure they understand the concepts covered in the class and provide insightful feedback so that they can continue to improve.
Hello there! My name is Nikhil and I would love to be your English tutor and help you improve your confidence with the language. I have several years of teaching experience, which have helped me develop the important skills of patience, communication, creativity, and being organized which are important to being an effective teacher. I used to teach Economics to college freshmen and sophomores while I was a graduate student at the University of Virginia ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For more than twenty years I have had experience in report writing, creative writing, speech writing, resumes, and projects. My expertise lies not only in the proficient use of the English language but in skills development. I can teach anyone of any age to discover, embellish, and resourcefully utilize even the most obscure of their talents and abilities. For twelve years I coordinated and mentored forensic (public speaking) teams that participated in league competitions. I can teach the art of public speaking and can develop “baby steps” required to inspire confidence in one’s ability to overcome shyness and “terror” when speaking to either a large or small group of people. .
My teaching methods include brainstorming, thought organization, use of the thesaurus, and use of adverb and adjective clauses to overcome writer’s block. These are in part “taught” but also deve ... read more

As an educator I have the opportunity to help my students find their strengths, build on them, and guide them on their future path. This opportunity can also be a challenge. It becomes my responsibility to rise to the challenge and be the person they say was important in shaping their future. I want to be prepared to help students recognize their strengths and how those apply to a profession, how to prepare for the transition from school to the workforce, the military, or college, and how to successfully embark on their post-school life.
I have been an educator for 23 years,as an elementary school teacher, and in special education at the secondary level. I have a master's degree in learning disabilities, and have worked on a Child Study Team for the past 14 years. I believe all children can learn if taught to their individual learning style. I have taught home instruction and t ... read more

After graduating with a BS in Special Education, I worked for almost six years as a high school Learning Support teacher. I taught and supported students in all subjects. I was fortunate enough to be home with my children for a few years before I started working as a substitute teacher. I have been subbing on a day to day basis since November of 2009. I recently met PA and NJ standards to be considered Highly Qualified in the area of middle and high school English. Because of my training and my diverse experiences teaching students with learning disabilities, I am able to meet the individual needs of each of my students.
Initially, I believe it is important to assess a student’s present levels. If I know at what level the student is functioning, I can then create a plan to improve the student’s skills. When I am working one-on-one with a student, I teach to the student’s st ... read more
