Violin Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Ronks, PA

I tend to employ a quiet but direct approach to learning. Q and A sessions begin each session. We review the homework and past experiences of the student. I encourage students to write down their concerns and mark the areas of confusion at the time these arise. That way the students don't forget to bring them to my attention. I like to break down large projects into smaller components. The success of the student is the primary goal. A feeling of accomplishment is a close second. I back step and reteach as necessary. Praise is given often. I enjoy the teaching experience and interaction with each student. My background experience includes classroom teaching, tutoring, substitute teaching,ESL,Title I,and GED training. My classroom experiences included Pre-K to College students. It also included training nursing staff. In Pennsylvania, I hold undergrad degrees which focus mainly on math, c

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. As an undergraduate, I participated in a Writing Fellowship, which allowed me to meet with students to work on their writing. Through this individualized tutoring style, I developed an appreciation for working one-on-one with students and peers, and began to develop a highly personal, creative style of tutoring. Over the course of my teaching experience, I have found that students learn best when they are comfortable yet appropriately challenged. It is my goal to distinguish the learning style of each individual student that I work with and from there, develop a plan to meet their goals. I am currently back in the Reading area after completing two years with Teach For America on Chicago's Southside. While there, I taught 9th Grade English/Test Prep and 6th Grade writing, which I loved! Two years ago, I graduated from Barnard Coll

My career as a professional violinist has offered me many unique opportunities and experiences over the years. I find that teaching is one of the experiences I enjoy the most. I have been teaching violin lessons to children and adults for over 19 years, and continue to do so today. I began my career in Paris, France, where I lived for five years, and have maintained my fluent French language skills. I have a very strong background in creative writing in the English language as well; before beginning my career as a violinist, I won some minor writing awards and had the opportunity to work as an editor and proof-reader. Writing and proper use of language continue to be skills I value very highly. I love teaching children. I enjoy getting to know how each child thinks and works, and finding the best way to teach them in a way that is meaningful and gratifying. My approach is usually
