Because I have learned the material more recently than some older tutors, I believe that I am able to better help the students. I know the methods that are currently being taught in classrooms, and I know ways to manipulate them to make sense for every student. I have been able to teach the same exact skill multiple ways so that every different mind can understand it, no matter how they learn or what makes sense to them.
I have been tutoring for over five years in math, reading, spelling, and science. Every single student that I have helped has increased their grade in the respective subject from a failing grade to an A without fail. I have tutored one-on-one, and I have tutored in groups as small as two and as large as twenty, so I am comfortable with any setting. As math has always come very easy to me, I decided to help other students in my classes who were struggling. From ther ... read more

In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry.
I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosop ... read more

Lifelong learner wants to help!

Patience is a true virtue! When teaching children, patience has to be presence. I have learned through my experience, a calm environment with a patience and observant teacher who is willing to try to understand how the child learns, goes a long way because all children are not the same; therefore, they do not learn in the same manner.
Hello All, I am currently a 3rd grade teacher in a ICT classroom in Brooklyn,NY. I truly enjoy educating children and helping them develop a greater understanding of different concepts. I am into my 4th year of teaching. I am highly dedicated and motivated teacher who is willingly to go above and beyond to help children succeed.

Writing is simple when you allow it to flow from your heart.

I have a very basic philosophy on writing. It's about developing your own voice. Everything flows from that.

My comments on tutoring Spelling : I am an editor at a publishing firm in Manhattan.

I have a laid-back, respectful attitude toward students, with my primary interest being their successful understanding of the subject area. As well as being a valuable tool in the workplace, writing is fun and rewarding; I want students to see the benefits of writing without feeling burdened.
I have over ten years of experience writing and editing creative and argumentative work. During and after graduate school, I taught composition, creative writing, American and world literature at liberal arts colleges and junior college throughout the south. When I moved to New York, I continued to write and edit, working with numerous authors in librarianship, international studies, and argumentation theory. I am most qualified to assist motivated high school and college students in any area of writing composition and introductory literature.

Environmental Journalist to help with reading and writing

I am an environmental reporter based in New York. My articles have appeared in New Scientist, Scientific American, Psychology Today, Popular Science, OnEarth Magazine and Smart Planet. I was also a copy editor with a large publishing house for two years where I used my spelling and grammar skills to fact check and proof read manuscripts. I love to travel and learn about people and the world and spent two years living in Paris, France where I was an English tutor to French children and adults. I also co-host a podcast about fairy tales called Tabled Fables. Each month we discuss a different tale to find out what the story means, how it's evolved and what makes it stick.
I like to help people learn about English by exploring their interests. For example, if you are a fan of economics we can read The Economist and discuss world politics. If you prefer to talk about animals we can crea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I've been tutoring my classmates, neighbor's kids & friends for a long time in specified subjects and with specific assignments. My speciality is a tie between Social Studies and English. My favorite moment is when they get that look in their eyes when they finally understand something and say "Oh! I get it now!"
Creative. I try to make learning fun. I believe that the problem is that kids don't find learning fun so they don't want to do it.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a credentialed teacher of ESL. I maintain relationships with students by building confidence, making them feel comfortable and having fun. I make sure lesson plans cover the many activities and events taking place in and around the city, including those in students’ neighborhood. My experiences living abroad in Spain really helped me understand how isolated one can feel. Many of my students need someone to motivate them and tap into the resources outside the classroom. Inside the classroom I need to let low-literacy patients who cannot follow medical instructions that I am there for them. I also enjoy showing short clips of old and recent movies to discuss “visual clues.” I gain satisfaction when students take pride in their accomplishments.
