Believe in yourself, and you are half-way there!

My teaching style depends on the student. I am comfortable with trying different study methods in order to figure out why my student is having trouble with a particular subject.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I love being able to help students feel comfortable with the material they are studying. I have tutored numerous times throughout college, and would like to get back into tutoring students because I find it to be rewarding. As a student who went from living in Germany and being taught that there are many ways of getting the right answer, to moving to America where everything is taught in one way, I have learned to incorporate my tutoring skills to the need of each individual student. I try to figure out what works best for every individual and help them focus on their strength and improve their weaknesses.

Years as a corporate professional in marketing, manufacturing and retail along with a diverse education in Librarianship, Humanities & Creative Arts, Fashion Marketing has enabled me to learn Web 2.0 social media information technology skills, and edit, author training manuals, correspondence, essays, or freelance pieces.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a well-rounded diversified individual with both corporate and academic environment experiences. I believe that each child is unique and learns in different ways. I value spending time with a child, forming a tutor-student bond, and the learning takes place from there. My teaching style is very interactive and supportive. I am very reliable and attentive. My strong listening skills also play a major role in my success as a tutor.
During the past 6 years, I have extensive experiences as a substitute teacher in the public school systems in both CT and FL. I have taught all subjects within grade levels K-12 including special education . I enjoy all age levels of children. In addition, teachers within the school systems have asked me to do some private tutoring for them for their struggling students. I find it to be very rewarding!

I am going into my senior year as a Computer Science major at RPI in upstate New York. Computer Science has always been an interest within my life and therefore I wanted to achieve a degree within this path. My understanding within CS shows a well knowledge of math and science.
My style to work with helping people achieve their highest standards within Computer Science is that I lead the person with finding the answer themselves. With patience and positivity, teaching comes at a wonderful angle.

I believe that a good education paves the path for successful careers. Achieving a level of excellence in school opened up opportunities for me when I first graduated from college in the Accounting program. My dream was to work in the investment banking industry. Based on my academic achievement, I received a job offer to work in a prestigious Wall Street firm. After spending over a decade in this industry, I wanted to utilize my business knowledge to teach others. I had tutored my son for years and realized the difference that my efforts had made on his grades. I pursued a graduate degree in Education followed by my teaching certification. I enjoy the rewards derived from working with young people.
I believe that every child is different. Every child has the potential to achieve academic success. By providing the appropriate learning environment and experiences, children ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an avid writer of short stories and poetry, as well as song lyrics. I am an excellent public speaker and earned an A in this subject in college. I have been told I have a way with words, and have become the "walking dictionary" for family and friends. I have published a book of poetry from beiginning to end, without the help of a publishing company. I also have experience being a mom's helper to two autistic boys ages 3 and 5.
I really enjoy kids and helping them to think highly of themselves above all. I do not have any direct teaching experience, however I have done many hours of volunteering at my former church. Kids take to me. I know how to talk to them, without talking down to them.

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught a computer "cap-stone" class to graduating seniors part-time at the Katherine Gibbs school for 1 semester. There were approximately 14 Seniors in the class and we utilized all of the Office programs from the creation of letterheads to the writing of business correspondence to mythical persons about various subjects. Subsequently I tutored high school seniors for the Princeton Review, an SAT prep business, for about a year and a half. This experience included working with many types of students and was a perfect venue to utilize my extensive consulting experience. As a turnaround management consultant for over 25 years, I was continually "teaching" people to implement the changes required to succeed.
My teaching style is a combination of serious, in-depth theory and practical examples to demonstrate such theories, all with a hint of humor, followed by significant pra ... read more

I am patient and approachable but insist on the value of completing assignments even if the student "hates" them. I am good at explaining how this will be important later, which turns around reluctant learners. I believe in explaining, showing, modelling, and then stepping back while the student tries, explains, and determines where the mistakes come up. I value resiliance, and bask in the joy of competence achieved through effort.
I went from the Boston Public Schools to Commonwealth School and then Wellesley College, and would have been lost, early on, without help from tutors. I majored in English and Russian and work with several communities for whom English is not their first language. I am also a freelance writer and editor and I help my children's friends with their college essays. I work as a substitute teacher with all levels and grades and teach everything but Science and ... read more

I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math.
I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.
