Teaching and School Counseling Services In One Place!

My style of education is to teach by modeling. Students need to see things in a step-by-step format with instructions, followed by an immediate example. I also provide sample argumentative essays for students who learn by seeing a complete model. My counseling style is to work with students, first by building a rapport and then using that as the foundation to get a feel for their college/career interests. I then look at their grades to help them build a custom transitional plan into early adulthood.
I have been a teacher for the last fifteen years. I teach social studies, but my specialization is teaching argumentative (college level) writing.I have done plenty of SAT prep and tutoring for students at the high school and college level. I am also a school counselor and can offer a vast array of services including FASFA, Naviance/Common Application and college/career counseling.

Experienced tutor available

My engaging style is evident at the start of each tutoring session. I show my students by personal example how to persevere and succeed in academics and in life. For the past 15 years, I have been a full-time tutor for students in grades 1-12. I am a graduate of Wesleyan University with an emphasis in physical and cultural anthropology and an ongoing fascination with the study of prehistoric human societies. Presently, I use my diverse experience as a tutor, copy editor and radio news broadcaster to make each tutoring session truly memorable for my students. My students quickly see how much I care for their progress and success. I consider tutoring to be much more than just a profession, but a way to provide others with needed assistance. It is this goal, when met, which provides me with my greatest satisfaction as an educator.

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy working closely with students and their families to achieve the student's goals. I know that the definition of "success" can vary greatly, and have worked with students in many different situations--students on the verge of failing a course, those trying to advance beyond their current coursework, and students preparing for college entrance exams. I often spend months or years working with each student and enjoy seeing them progress academically and gain confidence. With plenty of patience and teamwork, I believe that I can help a student to achieve his or her goals.
My educational career was full of challenges that have given me a broad basis of knowledge for tutoring. In high school, I earned the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma. I subsequently earned a BS in Ceramic Engineering and an MBA in Operations Management. I started tutoring in high school when I ma ... read more

I have taught with students from the age of 6 to the age of 29 in all subjects from math and reading, to philosophy and history. I am relaxed and zealous when teaching students. I have a known record at teaching my guitar students all the basic chords within 3 lessons. I also have raised the SAT scores with every students that I tutored for the SAT's. My record speaks for itself. I realize when a student is getting tired and wore down. I make sure to take small breaks and ask questions I know they will be interested in. This gives them trust in me and relaxation from the teaching process that can sometime become rigorous after awhile. It is my duty to improve my students grades and scores. My work in tutoring would not be fulfilling if I could not accomplish this goal.
I have taught music and guitar since I was 20 years old. I continued to teach guitar throughout college w ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After over decade of classroom teaching and preceding experiences teaching as a manager, I have developed a style that would be considered eclectic, at once rooted in the cognitive behavioral and infused with existentialist expectations. The key element is to reach each unique individual, assessing strengths and weaknesses, and facilitate an atmosphere in which students can find personal success while engaging the group dynamic. I spend a great deal of time examining just what it is I am doing as an educator, how I feel about outcomes and how I can adjust curriculum, practices, and in my case, administrative functioning to better serve my charges. Existing educational practices in no small way determine the modes and methods one uses to engage learners in and out of the classroom. However, teaching style and empathetic relationships to a great extent determine how students are engag ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In college, I double-majored in math and economics, and my SAT scores were 700 math/ 700 verbal. My GRE verbal score was 760. I have eight years of professional experience working with regular education and special educational students from preschool through the upper elementary school level. For six of those eight years I specialized in tutoring children with autism in a 1:1 setting. In addition, because I have a high school student at home who receives special education services in mathematics, I have recently reviewed high school level algebra and geometry.
My teaching style is primarily geared toward errorless teaching, and giving the student many opportunities to respond. It is very important that the student practice sufficiently without making errors, supported by prompts that are faded as material is learned. I meet the learner at his current level, and then progress in s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated teacher, who wants their students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. My expectations for my students are high, and by the end of the school year students realize that they can achieve any goal set before them. Geographical and cultural experiences throughout my travels have helped me to become flexible in my teaching, while perfecting high organizational standards and skills. It takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a class of students. Therefore, I have learned the value of being a team player and the importance of communicating with colleagues, parents, and administrators so that I will be able to provide the best education possible for my students. I believe that my energy, education, and experience combine to ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I first started tutoring in 2001 as in-house tutor at New Britain High School until June 2005. I have earned bachelor degrees in International Business/Finance which has enabled me to gain understanding in areas of math and business. Furthermore, I have tutored students in Reading, Math, and Writing from Kindergarten to High school students as NCLB Supplemental Educational Services. In addition, I have completed Special Needs for Special Student class at University of Connecticut.
I love teaching and working with kids. Each child learns at his/her own rate and in different ways. I am always there to help them to find alternative sources to achieve their goals. I believe anyone can achieve something in life.
