As a teacher, I am compassionate and patient. I believe in the importance of setting high standards for each unique student and providing the guidance they need to feel safe, confident and comfortable with themselves and each other. Through this type of environment and through building strong relationships between the learner and teacher, students are better able to realize the limitless possibilities that each possess and set them on the path to future education and success.

I enjoy teaching math, science, social studies and language arts. I like to use many teaching strategies because I believe all children learn in different ways. I like to use hands-on activities, visual aids, music, math manipulatives and traditional styles. I have great classroom management skills. I believe I am patient and very organized. I enjoy looking for lessons and ideas on the internet. I enjoy putting activities together that reach the education goals. I believe all children can learn if they are given the proper guidance and instruction. Teaching has been a life long goal for me. I decided I wanted to teach when I was in the third grade. My third grade teacher left an impression on me that lasted through out my life. I completed the elementary education program at Rhode Island College in May, 2006. I have been a substitute in the field for two years. I am actively searching fo

I believe that every student is a unique individual that has the ability and desire to learn. Ultimately, my goal is for each one of my students to reach his or her full potential in life and become a productive citizen of our world. I feel that a child learns best through play. For this reason, my lessons and activities will use fun manipulatives and eye-catching visuals. By using a variety of tools and anchor charts, I will appeal to auditory, visual and kinesthetic learners. I feel that taping into all 8 types of intelligences is important to the development of the whole child. As a tutor I eagerly welcome the responsibility to develop each and every student into a compassionate, ambitious and intellectual human beings. As a recent graduate of Salve Regina University, I am eager to continue my work with early childhood and elementary students. I have volunteered in a Head Start pres

I recently graduated cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with two Bachelors of Science in Marine Geology and Maritime Law. I teach sailing and environmental education in the summers. This means very little however as I aspire, one day, to become a lighthouse keeper. Sadly, few can find such a position these days. I enjoy writing, science, mathematics, literature and most all music. When I taught sailing to young kids, I used to dress up like a pirate. I have lots of energy. I know I'm doing my job right when kids start laughing. When I taught to teenagers, I kept in mind my own experiences at that age. If I'm helping a student study hard on that big, important test that might have the ability to crush the student's soul - I bust out my acoustic guitar and sing about how It's The End of The World As We Know It (And This Test Means Very Little In The Long Run).

I find working with students to learn thrilling. In order for students to be life long learners they need to learn how to teach themselves. I help the student stay motivated and positive about the learning experience and the subjects they are studying. My students learn confidence in themselves and there learning style. Each student has a different learning style with positives and weaknesses. I work to improve the weaknesses and grow the positives. All students have untapped potential and I work with them to grow that potential into life skills. As an undergrad I took a wide array of classes. THis includes political science classes, biology classes, music classes, history classes and photography classes. As a teacher I have been subbing in the Warwick system teaching biology, history, english, and special education classes. I have worked one on one and in large classes. My study habits

I am a firm believer in complete individualized, unique attention. It is critical to identify what motivates students and what techniques work best for them, and then work to enhance those skills and apply them to all subjects in order to be successful. By establishing the foundation for each students individual learning success, we can continue to build on those skills and progressively develop new skills and techniques to ensure that the student is confident in each subject he/she needs help with. It is my hope to not only strengthen the students in the subject I am assigned to tutor, but to establish skills that they can use beyond that one subject and into other subjects and in the classroom. As a college and high school football coach, I learned first-hand how to motivate and teach people the correct techniques for playing and helped them prepare for games. I learned to formulate pr

I enjoy helping other people learn, and I get a sense of satisfaction when they grasp new information. I have tutored students needing help with homework assignments or studying for an exam. I requested that they bring their notes and textbook so that I use them as a reference when teaching. I can either answer specific questions or walk through the material. I ask the student questions about the material to make sure they understand the information completely. If the student is having trouble I will patiently go through the materials again until they fully understand the information. I graduated with a BA from Rhode Island College in 2005, and went back to work on a MA the following fall. I am currently finishing up my degree and should be finished with my MA this spring. During my graduate career I had an assistantship where I helped set up classroom laboratories, aided in teaching the

As an undergraduate student I double majored in Biology and philosophy. Biology has provided me with a strong understanding in chemistry, biochemistry, ecology, evolution, and physics. Along with that, my philosophy degree has provided me with the ability to clearly communicate my ideas to another person. I have a lot of patience which allows me to take my time when going over a concept to a student. I never feel the need to rush or come back to a topic later. I will cover it thoroughly.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Rhode Island with a BS in Wildlife Conservation Biology. My academic background includes much coursework in biology, chemistry, physics, other sciences, and math. I won a scholarship due to my high GPA in the sciences, and was also a Coastal Fellow - doing a research project with the Audubon Society of Rhode Island and presenting my results in a scientific poster during a special presentation. I graduated With Honors. I have also worked as a teacher and have taught math and science to both high school and middle school students. I believe understanding of science and math is essential in today's world. I also believe this understanding is not beyond the grasp of any student, as long as they are given patient instruction, the relevance and importance of the subject is provided, and interest is suitably generated. I believe an educator with passi
