More About This Tutor...

I graduated from Washington High in 2006 with my High School Diploma. From there I went to Worwic Community College part time while working full time to pursue an Associates of the Arts in General Studies. This degree was completed in 2010. After that I moved on to Salisbury University to pursue a Bachelor's Degree with a dual major in History and Psychology with Minors in Philosophy and Women's Studies. After one year of study I found myself suffering financially so I returned to Worwic Community College to pursue an Associates of Applied Science in Hotel-Motel-Restaurant Management with a specialization in Hotel Management because Ocean City is a predominantly tourist based town. After that I attended the Culinary Program at Worwic Community College and graduated with my third Associates Degree in just over a years time. But I could spout my accomplishments to you all day, what rea ... read more

A simple line can go a long way.

I am a professional fine artist and graphic designer whose studio is located in Selbyville, DE. I've enjoyed over 10 years of painting professionally in all types of mediums and styles, and 4+ years experience in the graphic design field. I hold both an Associates and Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design from the Art Institutes. I have been teaching art classes for all ages for about 3 years and have worked in the local school district and online. My Master's degree is in English and Creative Writing.
My teaching style is to provide my students with the tools, fundamentals, and techniques they need to acquire, broaden, and sharpen their skills, while I put an emphasis on allowing them to practice independently, critiquing when necessary.

I am a Music Education Major at Towson University.

I have played Trumpet for 9 years, Clarinet for 3, and have taken numerous college methods courses that teach me how to play and teach many other instruments. I am a music education major at Towson University, but I live near Salisbury, MD, and love to help and tutor children in this field during the summer. I do not yet have a degree, but am looking for paid teaching experience to put on my resume.

I work well with students of all ages.

More About This Tutor...

I have always had high ratings as a graduate school teacher and lecturer. I am considered a mentor of others and have enjoyed my role as a helpmate to students of all ages. I have consistently worked with students during my career and have taught them writing skills for newsletters, memoranda, emails, and website composition. I am considered caring, patient, sociable, kind, and fun to be around. I believe that children and adults learn best using mixed methods that are appropriate to the learning venue, e.g., providing hands-on examples, interactive conversations, videos (where appropriate), homework, and computer based learning so the student does not get bored and sees learning as interesting and exciting.
I have always seeked employment with organizations that support programs to help others, especially underserved population groups. My federal, academic, and business career ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I’ve always enjoyed teaching others, whether I was a kid tacking up my pony and giving informal riding lessons or leading fellow undergrad students through the forests surrounding Salisbury University’s field station. In the past two years, I have discovered a passion for children. I immensely enjoyed the summer I spent teaching riding lessons in Colorado and realized how much I wanted to continue with the education process when I returned to the Eastern Shore. As a substitute teacher, I have been able to explore the range of teaching methods and opportunities. I thoroughly enjoy working in a small group or one-on-one setting with students who have specific learning difficulties or problems and helping them grasp the material at hand.
While at Salisbury University, I studied Environmental Issues and firmly believe in the theory I learned that education in the beginning for everythi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of Johns Hopkins University, earning a BA in Public Health Studies. During my time at Johns Hopkins I interned in clinical research at the School of Medicine, where I served as research coordinator for a study in adolescent women's health within the department of pediatrics. My academic pursuits and experience in clinical research required solid writing skills and the ability to compose academic research papers, laboratory reports and grant proposals. I have worked as a private tutor for students in/around Baltimore for the past three years, tutoring high school students in the sciences, math (algebra I-II, geometry) and English (composition, reading, SAT prep, ESL).
I believe students, regardless of their individual learning style, can be successful in their academic pursuits. My approach to teaching focuses upon the individual student and his/her needs. Edu ... read more

Public school is not always rigorous enough for gifted students. When instruction fails to keep students engaged, they learn poor study habits. Ideally, students master study techniques before entering college either through school instruction or tutoring. I have writing, public speaking and other communications courses at the university level. I have also worked as an editor for the better part of two decades so I am good at identifying writing problems and helping students to correct them. I am also an enthusiastic student of American history and government and enjoy sharing that subject with students.
I believe in the power of positive teaching. I think that most students live up to or down to your expectations. If you expect them to do well, they frequently do. Sometimes all that is needed is for teachers and other persons whose opinions matter to exhibit faith in the student's ... read more

I have always tried to teach concepts differently than traditional ways and somehow apply these to real life situations. With younger folks, real life situations don’t always work so I try to relate to their specific situation. Teaching children has always been a passion of mine and can be challenging. With the right combination of teaching style and self confidence everyone has a chance to be successful.
I obtained my AAS in 1986, from Hudson Valley Community College, located in Troy, NY. Working toward the BS wasn’t easy as it took another 8 years of night coursework. I eventually obtained my BS from the State University of New York Institute of Technology at Utica/Rome, in 1994. I have excellent communication, writing, and problem solving skills. The credit requirement for my degree was 146 credits, which is a little bit more than the average. I have tutored subjects including ... read more

As stated above I enjoy working with children of all ages, I have made a difference in their lives as well as them making a difference in my life. I love the many challenges that teaching brings, and believe its a very good experience to discover. I like to use my learning structure to assist in tutoring and making a difference in children to better their education and future.
As a graduate I have done tutoring to enhance my credibility to teach possibly in the future with my major in criminal justice.

During the last past 3 summers I have tutored young children as well as been a mentor to their studies. I enjoy working in this field of study, and plan to continue to do so.

I love working with children. Each child learns in a different way and at a different pace. I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to find the special key for each child to unlock the magic of learning. One good teacher who can relate to your child may change that child's life forever. I have a positive supportive approach to teaching.
As a graduate, with degrees in Economics and English, I have experience in mathematics and writing. Communication skills are very important in all fields. The written skills for essays, reports, research papers and letters are critical for any field a student wishes to pursue. I have taught young children to swim and have also worked with handicapped children.
