Let's Get America's Children Reading Again!!

I have over of 30 years of progressive experience in tutoring young children in the elementary years of education in all subject matter areas. My specialty is literacy and reading, but I am also adept in teaching all of the math curricula as well. I also firmly believe that teaching organizational skills and proper research methodologies are very important for the classroom today--and every child needs these skills in order to excel in the classroom and survive. I am also a qualified art teacher in the NOVA area.
I believe in tutoring so that the child receives feedback and fully understands his/her own limitations and how to overcome obstacles in class. Many children lack positivity in the methodology! I also believe that using art instruction helps children to learn in a more creative manner.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience teaching Japanese to non-native speakers from a variety of backgrounds including ages, native languages, as well as proficiency levels. I have tutored people aged from 5 to 60 years old. I enjoyed working with all of my students. I really enjoy sharing my language and culture with other people and I am so happy when I meet people who are interested in my culture and language. I have M.Ed. in Special Education and I have learned different teaching strategies so I will do my best to give you a lesson that suits your learning style! Now I live in Japan where I was born and raised and I am currently tutoring a few students online from here and it has been working very well. I would love to work with you too!

Elementary, Middle, High School and College Tutor

I usually start with a diagnostic test to concentrate on weaker areas then come up with a weekly plan focusing on those areas. After a lesson, I usually give worksheets and sometimes online exercises, depending on the subject, and use videos and games if applicable.
I have tutored and mentored students for more than five years in Algebra I & II, Trigonometry, Physics, Chemistry, English and ESL. I have a degree in Psychology and a certificate in TEFL. I believe tutoring is a really helpful and useful addition to class and studying by oneself because it is reviewing class material once again and it is a way for students to be accountable to yet another person who knows the answers to their questions and can help them work to that answer as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

love teaching irrespective of the monetary benefit.I strongly believe this is one of the profession you can achieve some mental satisfaction.Teaching never ends as the nature is globally developing and expanding in multiple direction .The most siginificant field is science and mathematics.So as a teacher too,you have to adapt the changes in your teaching style quite often,which suites to the best.However I do believe the teaching should be performed in a healthy and appropriate environment in which the teacher's contribution is very much involved.Teaching is a passion for me as most of my immediate relatives (18) are either professor or Teacher in this profession
As an engineering graduate, with additional exposure in substitute teaching for 5 years in various Fairfax county schools,I was driven to high level of excellence in mathematics and Physics.During my internship-teaching, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with kids and it's my inner passion to teach. I have developed patience’s working with children and I like to teach as a mentor/friend. My main focus is students' needs and goals, and the willingness to explore their strengths. I believe that every child has the capability to learn and they just need a little guidance. I would love to be the reason a child wants to learn and gain their knowledge. I am a hard-working and ambitious person with a desire to contribute to society.
I believe educators, teachers, counselors, principals are the providers, directors, and managers of complex systems of care. In other words, they are the backbone of the educational industry. While working as an Assistant Director of Education, I have learned to be more effective as a teacher. I have been teaching for past seven years and I have taught all age groups and subjects like, English, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my high school years I already had a particular interest in Accounting classes. In fact the high school diploma that I earned was in Accounting and Financial Management. When I reached the college level I decided to major in Economics, which was the broader continuation of my field in High School, this enabled me to gain some understanding in unknown areas such as Microeconomics or Statistics, and to increase my knowledge in Accounting or Finance. Now I am looking forward to getting a Masters in Finance to then start a professional career in that field. In addition to my academic years, I have also developed teaching skills since my classes schedule left me with some free time that I used to build up a resume.
I first decided to teach students to occupy my time but I then discovered what it feels like to help younger students overcome their academic difficulties. I believe t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During lessons, I am patient, calm, well-spoken, but challenging. I continually ask my students questions and make sure the focus stays on them and their learning rather than myself. I find that the discovery approach works well in my classes and students are always willing to participate in fun games and other activities that allow them to find the answer on their own. The best teacher is one that is always willing to learn and wants to help the individual become a well-rounded person, not just someone who can always give the correct answer. Paulo Freire, the late Brazilian Sociologist, was not only one of the greatest thinkers of the century, but also a humble educator. He believed that there should be no set boundaries between student and teacher because all people have something to contribute. He also believed that one's education should be rooted in the one's reality. Thus a "stu ... read more
