Children's Success is Our Business

We cater to how your child learns!
Although we are a new business in the heart of downtown Hammonton, our extensive selection process at UpGrade Tutoring ensures that our tutors are not only qualified individuals, but also positive role models and effective educators matched to suit your student’s needs. Using an internet based curriculum that is specific to New Jersey and Common Core Standards, students work with tablets at their own pace to complete different exercises and programs specifically geared to improve their basic skills, help build new ones, and develop good study habits. With these tools, we can pinpoint exactly what your child needs to succeed and how we can help. Whether you choose a small group setting (3:1) or a one- on- one session, your student will receive the help they need in a much smaller, and intimate learning environment. The first step to getting sta ... read more

The University of Delaware has integrated me into the education field with a variety of experiences. I will earn my degree in May of 2011, becoming certified in Elementary Teacher Education and Middle School Social Studies. Over the past few years, I have strengthened in my ability to work with students of diverse needs and present effective instruction for the particular learner. This increases the student's motivation and desire to learn. From the opportunity to study abroad in Spain and Italy, I was exposed to different cultures broadening my understanding of human nature. Part of my course work has included developing unit plans, lesson portfolios, assessments and materials for students.
As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student and teacher, I have been driven to excel personally and to help my students achieve excellence as well. I have earned a Master's Degree, two bachelor degrees and two certifications, MEd in Spanish and BA in English and Spanish as well as K-12 certification in Spanish and ESOL. These degrees have enabled me to gain understanding in many areas of language and English skills such as grammar, writing and research papers. Over the past nine years I have taught and tutored students in English, ESL and Spanish.
I love teaching and helping students to reach their fullest potential. Since each student learns differently, I believe the most successful education involves discovering each student's learning style and strengths to best enhance them as well as identifying weaknesses to develop strategies to develop them. I am patient, dedicated and considerate. I believe that ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have three basic ideas that guide me in the classroom. 1) I feel I have a personal obligation be intellectually engaging and informative. I understand my responsibility to provide students with information and ideas such as critical thinking and writing. 2) I encourage a stimulating, safe learning environment to ensure that students are eager and comfortable about their participation. I treat students respectfully, and ask that they treat their peers with the same level of respect. I encourage a forum for ideas and always solicit participation in the classroom. 3) I help students understand how education prepares them for the future. I constantly stress the relevance of the subject matter, by using real world examples.

I love to teach and help others in general. I always had difficulty when I was younger finding a tutor or some help in my studies that I could understand easily. I am a very patient and have a great sense of humor that come in handy during subjects of frustration. I believe if you can bring a child into their comfort zone and put the directions in the most simple fashion, a child can learn anything! I'd love to turn a subject they avoid into a subject to brag about...

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 18 years of corporate training experience in various roles, including platform instruction, designing curricula and developing courseware. I have a real passion for teaching, bringing a solid set of technical skills and exceptional patience to providing students with a productive learning environment. I am very highly rated by my students, consistently ranking in the top five percent among my fellow instructors. I also attended graduate school, partially completing coursework to teach math at the junior and senior high levels. I completed all of the preliminary courses and prerequisites, but unfortunately due to family issues at that time, I was able to complete the Masters program to be certified to teach.
I am an experienced technical educator with proven success in instruction, curriculum and courseware design and development, project management, and education center mana ... read more
