Literature Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Rockaway Park, NY

Ever since I began working in NYC public schools seven years ago as a licensed Paraprofessional, I became passionate about teaching while continuously learning and developing my methods of instruction working with multi-culturally diverse students with various needs. After recently graduating this year with my master’s degree in dual certification for regular and special education from Touro College, I became certified to teach grades 1-6 in NYC. As a Paraprofessional, theater instructor, choreographer, and student teacher I efficiently utilized Common Core standards while also understanding the commitment and dedication of integrated co-teaching and the importance of communication with my administration. My commitment to maximizing individual student performance through assessment and differentiated learning allows my students to flourish with ideas and excitement that can be applied i

Hi Everyone, My name is Nia and I am a tutor for elementary, middle, and High school students. I've worked both professionally and personally with children to help them reach their highest potential in all that they desire. I love science and English, but I have a strong love for ALL subjects. I am an expert at study tips when it comes to state wide tests, regents, and SATS! I feel that learning should be fun as it helps to obtain essential information and also have a great time while doing so. I would love to expand my help to any students in need. I am here to motivate, and encourage. My teaching style can be described as uplifting, fun, understanding, and encouraging.

I've been teaching English languages in Russia, Egypt and the USA for 6 years. Some of the students I was tutoring passed the TOEFL brilliantly and got their scholarships and jobs abroad. WHat I strongly believe in is that English is not about learning grammar rules, it's about communicating, being able to get your meaning across successfully. This is what we are going to focus during the sessions - actually using language.

As an educator with over ten years of experience, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience that will help children to excel. I attended Trinity School in New York City, where I had the opportunity to receive a high-quality education. From there, I matriculated to Columbia University. At Columbia, the core curriculum and the requirements for my major consisted primarily of English and history courses. One of the main reasons that I decided to attend Columbia is because of the focus on the core. I wanted to receive a well-rounded liberal arts education. When I became a teacher, my passion for English and literature enabled me to instill a passion for reading in my students, who had previously struggled with reading. It gives me great joy to teach students and to help them become better learners. Since graduating from Columbia in 2005, I have received dual certification in Childhood E

With 1500+ hours of tutoring under my belt, I am an experienced educator whose students get real results. I followed my passion for the performing arts to Brown University, where I earned two bachelor’s degrees, one in Theatre Arts and Performance Studies and the other in Modern Culture and Media. I developed my fun-loving approach to education while working as a STEM teacher at a summer camp, where I taught classes on topics like coding and robotics. Having undergone several years of boring math tutoring during my own middle school years, I strive to make tutoring as simple and enjoyable as possible. I relish the opportunity to connect academic material to my students’ specific interests. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy performing stand-up comedy, playing guitar, and hanging out with my cat.

My objective is to affirm knowledge through normative and dynamic learning strategies keyed to each individual student’s specific needs.
