More About This Tutor...

I have experience teaching many types of students. I worked one-on-one, daily, with an autistic student during my last position, so I understand that not every student learns in the same way. I think it works well to give shorter lessons to a small group, and then work individually with the students. I like to encourage them to help one another if they feel confident in the subject. I pay great attention to verifying that each student is following the lesson. My main teaching style is "I do, you do," meaning I show them how to do a problem, or spell a word, and then they show me how. I like to work with the parent and child on any goals they have for the year, while updating the parent and child on progress, problems, and behavior.
I have been working with preschool to high school age students since 2004. I have always had tutoring positions, whether it was for my peers in college, ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my life, I have always found comfort in teaching children. When it comes to learning, their appetites are insatiable, but often we come to road blocks as to how children are to be taught. They all have different personalities, how can they learn absolutely the same? You will find me an extremely adaptive, grounded, and patient individual, as all of those thing are needed for success. Oh, I'm pretty nice, too. I am very good with languages, as I feel it is important to be able to communicate in as many ways as possible. I strive for the excellence that I believe exists in all students.
Throughout my career, I have always worked well with others and value the importance of working as a collective toward the task at hand. Effective communication is crucial to success. Understanding this, I have taken it upon myself to become fluent in two languages, Mandarin Chinese and S ... read more

I love working with children. I believe that children tend to learn best through repetition and making the experience fun. I like to work with flashcards and other such methods. If you take the time with a child they will eventually pick up on what you are trying to teach them. However, there are methods such as acronyms that can be used as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

During college, I spent many hours perfecting papers by revising, editing, and proofreading. This helped me to master the art of english composition and essay writing. By studying writing, I have learned creative and technical tactics to add to my style of writing. Understanding the different ways to approach a subject of writing is beneficial to the essays and papers I write. I have personally written and also taught students to write interpretive essays, persuasive essays, memoirs, creative articles of fiction, and research papers on subjects found in literature. All of these topics interest me, which provides me with a desire to teach what I have learned to others.
When I work with others on writing papers, I always make sure to tell them why I suggest the changes I do. Making sure that they understand why I suggest a change is important. Reinforcing those rules while als ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been selected as a peer tutor through Carlow University for Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics.
I prefer to begin by having the student describe the current subject matter to the best of his/her abilities to determine a starting point. I have found that having the student talk through the subject matter can be useful in determining his/her strengths and level of understanding. I like to have the student work through some problems they have not been assigned from their book/notes so that they are able to practice and work through some other problems before attempting any assignments. I have also found that it is useful to go over any previous quizzes or tests related to the current subject matter as difficulties are sometimes related to previous work because with these subjects the work tends to build upon itself.

More About This Tutor...

I hold a degree in Political Science, but I concentrated in international relations with a fascination for other cultures and languages. Having lived in both England and France, I have been forced to adapt to new ways of thinking, speaking, writing and eventually teaching, where I was thrown in a classroom of French students for which I became a role model of American culture. It was during this time that I decided to work towards becoming a teacher. Further,I am a university speech champion and have written many essays over the course of my studies. Some of which were presented to tutors at Oxford and critiqued on a weekly basis. Thus, my writing skills were formed during this time.
I believe that every student can choose where he/she wants to go, as long as they are given the tools to acheive these ambitions. I have a heart for children and love watching their minds emb ... read more

I feel very comfortable dealing with the technical side of the English language--that is, the grammatical side. I am also quite comfortable discussing theme, characters, and various plot devices in novels. During high school, I excelled in the Advanced Placement English programs, and in my time at Penn State University, I have taken a number of honors courses to further my education, focusing my studies on writing; additionally, I have completed an editorial internship, writing and editing numerous articles for both magazines and newspapers in the State College area. My degree from Penn State is a Bachelor of Arts in English with an emphasis on publishing.
As a person who is both respectful and fond of the English language, I feel that I have an advantage in opening lines of communication with students. Because my area of expertise is language, I find it easy to express myself in ... read more
