My comments on tutoring Social Studies : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have taught Middle School Social studies and I have helped many students to succeed academically. am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a 2012 graduate of Temple University’s College of Education, I have student teaching experience on the sixth and seventh grade levels, as well as, teaching and directing experience in a qualified pre-school, and have assisted students within both suburban and urban school districts. Recently, I finished student teaching within a sixth grade general education classroom. This position enabled me to provide these students with a comprehensive curriculum in mathematics, literacy, social studies, and science. I was challenged to actively provide a positive classroom climate, create an interesting curriculum, and keep the students engaged in learning. In my junior year at Temple University, a passion for, ‘Going Green’ created an opportunity for me to aid in the construction of Greenworks Preschool Academy. This position allowed me to design the curriculum, mission statement, and daily ... read more

My comments on tutoring Social Studies : History major in college

I began teaching at eighteen. I’d just graduated high school and wasn’t ready for college, so I worked as a personal trainer at a gym within jogging distance of my house. I worked with clients one-on-one helping structure their workouts to their needs, and while I may be stretching it to equate teaching with providing pointers on proper form or advising on ways to augment a stagnant routine, but I think that gap year spent in the gym was when my proclivity for teaching first became incipient. Since then I’ve taught countless subjects. I’ve worked with second graders and sophomores in college. The classroom may have changed since I was eighteen but that aim to educate another remains. I am currently an MFA in Creative Writing candidate at Rosemont College. The program has two primary focuses for its graduate students. One is for students to enhance their craft and make the most ... read more

I love learning to be a student and to teach.

My style is more formal with the beginning students who need a lot of structure and have to do repetitive exercises to beging the process of learning English as a second language. Overall, as the students advance in their knowledge I have them leave the classroom and interview teachers or other people and then they are videotaped and they can write their own material. So the teaching style is more fluid then at the beginning.
I have taught in both high school the last 7 years and college for 2 years teaching reading and writing. I have taught English in the summers 2007-2010 to International Students. I have taught reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary. I have done prep for the HSPA prior to the test.

In working in the liberal arts fields, I try to link up the student's interests with the subject matter, looking for an approach that will link the content of the field to things that they care about. In the graphic arts, I favor a mastery learning approach that builds on foundational concepts and emphasizes both the learning of specific techniques and a problem-solving approach that makes someone more than just a button pusher.
