I have been teaching and tutoring writing in almost every genre -- from the creative prose to business correspondence and memoranda -- since 1998. I started out tutoring students in anthropology at Hunter College and then landed a teaching position at a business school where I taught business English. In 2007 I enrolled in an MFA program at The City College and a year later began teaching freshman composition courses to engineering majors. I have references available from instructors and supervisors as diverse as the former dean of Hebrew Studies at CCNY to the supervisor of the SEEK Department's PAL Center. I do not have a teaching style as this implies that I or anyone can really teach another how to write. Writing is not taught in a way that science can be taught or grammar can be taught. Writing (and learning grammar and memorizing vocabulary lists are not learning how to write) is l

I am a Speech and Theatre educator with a strong background in English. I have worked with young people over the past twenty years and have been privileged to see many of them benefit from the Speech, Theatre and English training they received in my programs or by tutoring. In this era of instant communication, many of my former students have reached out to me to let me know how meaningful the work was for them and how it motivated them in their lives and helped them to find their true callings. For this, I am profoundly grateful. Committed, engaging, appropriately direct, friendly but professional, caring, insightful, compassionate, skilled, motivating.

Throughout my years of teaching, I have witnessed and helped assist in new and exciting educational program implementation in day-cares and school systems. With my real world and in class learning I have realized the importance children’s primary academic instruction plays in their growth and development. I find it fortunate that I have had wonderful opportunities to teach diverse groups of students, including those with learning disabilities, those who performed at grade level, and those who were exceptional. These opportunities have helped build my classroom management abilities and communication skills. My philosophy of education has been centered on differentiated instruction and the importance of individual learning styles and effective evaluative measurements. From March 1st, 2010 till June 30th, 2011 I have had the opportunity to be both a full time grade one and grade four teache

When helping a child, I show interest in the child and the child's immediate situation. I express warmth, responsiveness and appreciation. I nicely encourage a child for a given activity or one that I create. I am always upbeat, positive, and enthusiastic In the educational process, I form an idea of what the student is ready to learn, and form an idea of a learning task (discussion or practice) and of how I might introduce it. I am open to suggestions from the learner for this (or at any moment). Learning should be enjoyable.If a task proves not to be intrinsically stimulating, I present accomplishing it as a challenge. I praise efforts and seek to minimize frustration--I have a technique for this, to be used when necessary. Finally, the majority of time during any session is time during which the student is learning, with a minimum of my instructing. John Andrew Sonneborn, D.Min. (21

I believe that learning should be fun and engaging! Still being young myself, I know exactly what it takes to grasp the younger generations attention and include that into learning. i also believe being hands in works as well. Kids love computers and are so tech savvy so why not also include that into the learning. The more fun added, the less the child will realize they're actually studying. I have great experience tutoring elementary school children and even adults who need to brush up a little on their basic learning. I've been a tutor at my old elementary school for more than five years and I loved the experience so much! i love seeing kids happy when they finally understand something. I also have experience teaching my little nephews and helping them with their homework every night.

I prefer to teach no more than two children at the same time. Focusing on the child's academic needs and flaws and an important keys to correcting them and creating a more successful learning environment. When I first meet a child I like to first assess their knowledge and understand their particular way of learning. Then, I proceed to teach and reinforce what they need to know in a certain subject. I have been tutoring children ages 5- 10 for 4 years. I mostly tutor children that need to improve their academic performance in the areas of English and Math. With all my utmost satisfaction, I can say that all of the amazing children I have tutored greatly improved their knowledge and confidence. English and Math are my passions and I have a natural disposition when teaching them. The people who have hired me have always been content and satisfied with my amiability and patience when dealin
