Highly Experienced Teacher/Director looking to help students

Students best learn by doing, by experiencing, and from a variety of experiences that incorporate their five senses. Students learn with different paces and styles. There is no one way for a student to become well-rounded, it is just a matter of providing experiences where the student can learn from the environment. It is not a matter of one student being better than the other, rather it is a matter of students learning in different ways.
My experience entails a well rounded experience of teaching students from preK to adult. My most important position was acting as Director of Education for Sylvan Learning, where I basically ran the learning center. I supervised teachers and all student programs, conferred with parents from the beginning to the end of their experience with Sylvan, and did so much more to develop a positive experience with all clients and teachers involved. I have ... read more

Literature is one of my top subjects!

I am a teacher at a school for dyslexic students. I have been teaching high school and middle school for nine years. Prior to that I was a journalist. I am also an adjunct professor, part time, at Ocean County Community College. There, I teach two freshmen English courses. I am skilled in reading comprehension techniques and spelling instruction.
I believe teaching is a combination of hands on and direct instruction. Learning should be fun too.

More About This Tutor...

Writing, reading, and english have always been my passions. I don't have any formal training within the english tutoring or teaching worlds; however, I have always been a "go-to" for friends and classmates whenever they had questions or concerns about their assignments. Next fall I will be heading back to school in order to obtain my teaching credentials, and in the meantime, I thought that I would use my talents to help others.

I don't have any professional teaching experience but by running a business for the past two years I feel that is good experience when it comes to dealing with the unexpected and having to always think on your toes. I deal with a variety of personality types on a daily basis and I feel this would help me transition into teaching. I am also a professional musician and have tutored a number of people in the field of electronic music production
I currently hold a bachelor's degree from Rutgers University in Sociology. My major gpa was a 3.4 and I graduated from Rutgers College in New Brunwick which when I attended was the toughest school to get into within the Rutgers University system. I also have several years experience running an online sales business and plan to further my education in the near future since I value education highly for both personal and professional growth.

As an English educator, I firmly believe that the more experience you acquire, the more effective your teaching style becomes. Since I not only teach language arts in a middle school setting, but also accept positions which require me to tutor students of all ages (elementary to college level students), I feel my experiences have allowed me to become very flexible and adaptable to any teaching situation and any student's need. Also, because of these experiences, I am more confident in the content area I teach, but I am still open to learning new ways to present material.
My teaching style is fair, but firm. I am a strict believer in following directions and organization as a basis for any subject taught, and I strive to help my students understand this process as they go through their educational careers. My role is not just as educator, I am a director in my student's study sk ... read more

I am a practicing attorney, who strives for high level of excellence in everything I do. I have skills in history and political science. I also have experience with public speaking. As an attorney, I also have a vast knowledge of research and writing.
I enjoy working with children. I believe each child is different in the way that they learn and you have to vary your teaching style to the child. However, my general teaching style would be to provide examples that the child could relate to in their daily life.

More About This Tutor...

I volunteered at the Ocean County Library writing center for four years and helped my peers construct, organize, and layout essays. I also proofread, edited, and helped in the creative process of their essays. I am curreently working part-time at Ocean County Library (Lakewood Branch) tutoring k-12 students after school in the S.M.A.R.T kids program.
I focus on starting small and helping the student develop on their own. For example, when I teach how to write a strong essay, we write many drafts of an introduction. Then, we write many drafts of body paragraphs. Last, we would focus on writing a conclusion. Then, by working seperately on all of an essay's parts, the combined product is much stronger. The art of teaching is similiar to building a house: you start with an idea, then a foundation, and finally the framework.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience includes work as a professional tutor for Penn State University where I helped undergraduate students with English papers at all levels of development from brainstorming to final drafts. I also co-taught writing workshops on grammar and proper research for an English paper. In addition, I possess my Master of Fine Arts in Writing, and therefore have experience with conducting my own research and writing papers, which includes a critical thesis and graduate lecture. The experience gained from both researching and writing these works has helped me more easily explain construction strategies to students frustrated by their English assignments.
My time tutoring has helped me shape a tutoring strategy in which I first identify the level of help the student needs and then guide the student through collaborative efforts to the realization of his or her own innate writi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My main focus when teaching is to "keep it interesting". Students struggle with relating to their teachers and administrators in a classroom or school setting; either because the material in their opinion may be "boring" or the style of teaching is not corresponding with the students style of learning. I like to keep it simple and keep them focused. There are so many distractions and temptations for a student struggling with their school work and social or home life. I take the time to get them back into it. I can help improve reading and comprehension skills, help advance writing skills and creativity all while keeping them interested and entertained.
At Hofstra University I gained not only the experience necessary to work with a diverse group of children and teachers, but also the understanding of how important reading, writing, comprehension, and grammatical skills are in life. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love the challenge of finding ways to successfully teach students by being able to identify and accommodate their various learning styles. I believe that all students have the potential to learn, but they all have various ways at which they are able to do so. I feel that it is extremely important to relate to the students and to relate what they are learning to their lives. My goal as an educator is to constantly improve my methods and to always keep learning interesting for my students. It is my goal to be the teacher that impacts my students’ lives in such a positive way that I am always remembered by them. Great teachers are never forgotten, and I will spend my whole life working at becoming a great teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

I began tutoring K through 5th graders at an elementary school. Many of my students only spoke Spanish at home. From then, I continued tutoring elementary school students with a wide range of abilities. A few of my students were gifted, and we worked on sharpening their already existing skills. Many of my students struggled in a specific area, and we were able to incorporate general study skills into our lessons. I was able to help all of my students with book reports and other projects that were more time consuming than regular homework assignments. Throughout college and law school I refined my own studying habits. I believe I can pass my study skills onto my students and help them focus, manage their time, learn and succeed.
Since 2000, I have tutored students of all levels in a variety of subjects. During my undergraduate studies, I earned a BA in communication (public relat ... read more

I am a person that loves and believes strongly in education. I have earned a BA in Political Science and followed with an MS in Criminal Science as well as an MAT in Elementary Education. I student taught in a first grade classroom at New Egypt Primary School and then stayed on to serve as a general educator in a Kindergarten Inclusion Classroom.

I am currently working at an all girls camp through the Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore as a zip-line, ropes, climbing wall and boating instructor. I am also a full time lifeguard for the Girl Scouts.
