I believe that each student brings something different to the classroom. In my classroom, I want to foster the students' ideas and thoughts. I want the students to have a sense of pride in their thoughts. I am aware that students have different learning styles, so I am capable of altering my own style to make sure each student grasps the concepts that I want them to learn. During my undergraduate career, I student taught ninth grade English at Glasgow High School. I taught five 9CP courses and 1 SAT Prep course. So I have experience working with students and I am very skilled in teaching English Language Arts concepts.

As a teacher I believe that students learn best by doing, so I plan my lessons to engage students with meaningful activities that are mastered with hands on activity rather than teacher lead discussion. I have worked in a wide range of business and educational settings and have worked with students from grade school to adult. When I earned my BS in English, with a thirty credit business minor, I already had fifteen years experience working in a family run retail store. I have since worked a range of jobs including teaching business, computer and English classes. I also worked as a computer systems installer, service manager and office manager. I bring to my teaching a wide range of experience combined with a strong understanding of my subject areas.

As a re-founding member and President of the Syracuse University chapter of the National Society of Pershing Rifles (www.pershingriflessociety.org) I was responsible for the planning and instruction of between 12 and 20 students in the areas of Leadership, Project Management, Exhibition Drill and Wilderness Survival. Throughout my engineering curriculum I was very often tasked with assisted in the instruction of others in small group sessions as well as larger group project settings. I also received tutoring which provides a unique perspective on how adaptability is important. In my experience with teaching, I find that the best way to connect and convey the information is to provide aural, visual and experiential exposure to the material. Everyone does not learn at the same pace or through the same exposure to material. It is also important to be perceptive to the possibility of student

My undergraduate degree of Communication allowed me to use my knowledge and skills of writing, editing, and publishing as a springboard towards my true passion of teaching and working with adolescents. As a public school teacher with six years experience, both in Pennsylvania and Delaware, I have worked with various types of learners, IEPs, testing situations, and curricula. I also have six years experience in tutoring and homebound instruction. I believe that education is continuous and requires participation by all involved parties, meaning students must be active and constant participants in their education as well as the teacher. I also understand that no two individuals learn in exactly the same manner causing my methods as a teacher to constantly change to best fit the needs of the individual. All students, children, adults, etc. can learn if given the right environment, support, a

I believe that every child has a right to learn. I believe that, no matter what kind of problem or learning disability that student has, that he/she deserves to learn. It is the responsibility, not only of the teacher, but the parents, grandparents, siblings and community to help children receive the best education that they can. I believe that all children learn differently. Some learn through doing; some through listening; others are a combination. I teach to each child in the way that best helps them to learn. While completing my masters in Special Education, I have learned creative ways to help children with special needs that I work with. I have designed and coordinated a Resource Center to help students with special needs learn and achieve at their level. I have also designed and implemented a school for children with special needs.

I have a passion for helping students reach their acasemic goals. I am a very patient, caring and easy going. I beleive that the more patient you are with students, the better they will understand and not feel pressured and discouraged. I have discovered through my experiences that students learn better through experience and on a one-on-one basis. While attending The Richard Stockton College of NJ, I was an active member of the Accounting and Finance Society where I utilized my technological and analytical aptitude to create financial statements and perform cash and capital budgets. Then, in the summer of 2009, I was hired as a project management intern at NFL Films’ selective internship program where I further extended my executive and analytical qualities. I was able to get a realistic experience financially managing a broadcast sports corporation. Furthermore, I was an academic Math

I have implemented individualized reading and writing programs for students ranging from pre-K to adult; gave one-on-one attention to special needs students in phonics, context-based reading, and fact retention; cultivated students’ understanding of grammar/punctuation, sentence/paragraph construction, and general cohesiveness in creative and academic writing; worked one-on-one with high school students on SAT critical reading and writing sections, devoting extra attention to vocabulary expansion. I am keenly aware of how busy most students are, so my aim is for tutoring to feel like something they get to do and not something they have to do. Teaching revitalizes my own love for learning, a love I hope to impart in a gentle, patient manner. I believe in honoring the variance in learning styles, and I empower my students to engage with material in ways that feel natural to them.

I love teaching, Math especially. I have a passion for showing kids how important MAth is in everyday life. Only then they would take down that barrier of "I Dont Need Math" most ofthem have set up. I come from a very diverse background and I enjoy talking about my culture and learning about other cultures. I do not believe in spoon-feeding kids work, meaning that you have to make them responsible for doing the work, because only then they would see the true value in it. As an engineer, I enjoy working on design projects with kids and telling them about the many possibilites there are in the engineering field. Most of my experiences happened during my college career at Morgan State University as I was involved in a number of tutoring and mentoring roles to try to make a positive impact on the community around me. Here are a list of my experiences in math, computers, and business tut

My teaching style emphasizes the differences between children, especially with regards to learning styles. Different children comprehend and understand in unique ways - while one may understand best from tactile or visual demonstrations, others learn best simply by hearing. Even within the same student, certain concepts are best understood in atypical ways. I firmly believe that as an educator, my job is to be flexible and creative in devising appropriate teaching methods for each child - what works for one will not always work for another. The most effective teaching comes from understanding this, and tailoring specific approaches to each individual student's needs. I currently have two degrees: a B.S. in Environmental Science and a B.A. in Global Studies. In pursuing these degrees I have gained knowledge in various fields including biology, math, chemistry, global politics and eco

Public school is not always rigorous enough for gifted students. When instruction fails to keep students engaged, they learn poor study habits. Ideally, students master study techniques before entering college either through school instruction or tutoring. I have writing, public speaking and other communications courses at the university level. I have also worked as an editor for the better part of two decades so I am good at identifying writing problems and helping students to correct them. I am also an enthusiastic student of American history and government and enjoy sharing that subject with students. I believe in the power of positive teaching. I think that most students live up to or down to your expectations. If you expect them to do well, they frequently do. Sometimes all that is needed is for teachers and other persons whose opinions matter to exhibit faith in the student's abili

I have almost 10 years of experience of teaching students for the SAT,GRE, and specific subjects, combined. It started during my freshman year (1999) at Wheaton College (Wheaton, IL). I tutored students through college in Biology, Chemistry and the SAT. Out of this experience, I instructed students for multiple semesters in a Biology Lab course. After I graduated from Wheaton (2003), I entered a doctoral (Ph.D.) program at Johns Hopkins Medical School to study Molecular Biology. During my time in Baltimore, I have tutored a wide range of students for the SAT with a company called StudySmart, and have also tutored students privately for the GRE at Loyola, Johns Hopkins and Goucher College. Having this experience of teaching has prepared me for a company like Advanced Learners, which is looking for committed, qualified, and experienced instructors. Being in a competitive academic en

Currently, I am teaching Latin to 8th grade girls at the Bryn Mawr School - an independent K-12 school. My passion and knowledge opened the opportunity to student teach at the University of Maryland during my graduate studies. I continue to serve as an adjunct instructor to this day. This position allows me to teach young adults entering the University and cultivate their reading and writing skills via the charms of Classical Mythology and Ancient History. In my current position I am creative, organized, and nurturing. I am a team player and regularly coordinate lessons with faculty in other departments at my grade level. I make class fun and meaningful for my students. I also created a workbook for my students in an effort to revive Lat
