A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience in tutoring online and in person with various agencies. I have also taught recitation sections of Pre-Calculus and Calculus. In addition, I have experience classifying questions into common core standards. I have planned lessons, created supplementary curriculum, and led review sessions.
I believe in the incorporation of the latest technologies when teaching materials. Critical thinking is a great tool that helps to expand the understanding of concepts, and I seek to assist students not only with answering their current homework questions, but also to succeed with all areas covering the materials in which assistance is being sought. I have been commended for my ability to effectively communicate these concepts.

Start and end the session with a theme and establish rapport. I believe teaching is an art to achieve positive and enjoyable results. I consider my students as peers and try to entertain the teaching with humorous analogies/metaphors. I try to humanize while explaining the meanings to be aware of practical use. I avoid spoon feeding and try to get the answers from the student itself. Eventual ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My tutoring style involves learning the student’s interests and activating prior knowledge. This will elicit motivation from the student, resulting in effective learning. If a student can make a connection to his or her own life, the material will be easier to comprehend. I provide scaffolding that enforces the student to reach his or her zone of proximal development. The student needs be to be assessed several times throughout the tutoring experience to determine whether progress is being made. Detailed anecdotal notes must also be taken during each session to record the student’s performance.
I currently work as a special education teaching assistant in two inclusion classrooms. I teach small groups of students, and I differentiate instruction according to their individual needs. I was also a third grade teacher for the Glen Cove summer program. In addition to my experien ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I would say that all people are capable of learning and improving their abilities, knowledge, and skill. My experience has been that if a child, youth, or adult is given the space in which to learn, and introduced to material in a patient manner, in the style that works for them (be that through explanation or visual learning, etc) they will take the initiative to learn and grow at the pace and direction which works for them. People are naturally inclined to learn and grow, and my experience is that when given the opportunity and supportive role of a teacher, they will become interested in learning and continue to do so.
After graduating from college with a BA, I began working for an environmental restoration and public education program. We led large volunteer groups sometime of more than 100 people, in local park and forest restoration event, and also led youth groups on 10 day r ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I view teaching as an opportunity to inspire and empower. As a teacher, one primary goal is to enhance student learning as a transformative experience. Ideally, I want students to feel personally changed and motivated. Learning is most likely to occur and be most effective when students are personally engaged with the material and perceive the subject matter to be directly relevant to their own lives. A student learns better when the approach most closely matches their learning style. Understanding the diversity of learning styles, abilities, and student experiences is imperative to enhancing this engagement. Learning is a complex process that is individual. As a teacher, I am attentive to this and work to be flexible, adapting my approaches according to the needs of learners.
As a certified elementary and special education teacher, I have ample experience working with students in ... read more

I am a very hands on person, who believes that with patience each person can learn. Some people must understand that each person learns in a different way. I do not believe that people should compare one child to the next, because it is unfair.
With a BA in communications and a minor in sociology, I have an understanding in many subject areas such as, english, history, speech and media. As a graduate student I have extensive experience in writing papers and doing extensive research. I have worked as a newsroom researcher in the past. I am currently working on my graduate Thesis as well. I have experience in teaching students in elementary school up to the college level.
