A Little Bit About Me...

Education: Montclair State University BA - Art History BA - General Humanities Minor - Art History Other - Sigma Alpha Lambda Honors Society I am a museum educator and professional writer. Museum Education: I began volunteering with a local museum in the fourth grade and have continued ever since. I have always preferred working in living history museums as opposed to the big, dusty museums with everything behind glass beside little plaques that are too wordy even for industry professionals to find interesting. I've had many wonderful experiences portraying real individuals as well as no-name individuals from the Revolutionary War all the way up through the first half of the 20th century. Real, tangible history is what I always aim for - I can cook on a wood burning stove and know the basics of pre-industrialized farming, just to name a few things. Writing: I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been a teacher for nearly 14 years. I have enjoyed elementary school. The children like the way I teach them all their subjects that are needed. Many times I have taken students who have problems with various subjects and them have elevated themselves for a better understanding of the subject they had trouble with. Tutoring I also do in many subjects. I am called in by different agencies to help students who have difficulty with either a subject or others. GED I also teach and my students seem to do well and pass their test.

Currently a college senior, will be graduating with a B.A. in English in three weeks. Scored a 5 on 5 out of 7 AP classes taken in high school, 2030 on SAT. Currently tutoring one student in reading comprehension and one in biology, both are improving. Willing to work with all sorts of learners, flexible schedule.
I prefer to allow the student to attempt to find answers on their own first, and only supply help when a student is clearly struggling to find the answer. I work through each lesson or homework assignment step-by-step with the student, making sure they understand each part before moving on.

As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics.
I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor.

I believe that a teacher's role in the classroom (among other strategies) is to cultivate independent thinking through dialogue. Although learning information is important to knowledge acquisition, encouraging students to interpret facts through their own thinking can cultivate a classroom climate that fosters open inquiry and freedom of expression. Furthermore, in addition to helping students express themselves in writing with clarity and poise, a caring and nurturing teacher should act as co-inquirer and deep listener.
I have taught English, Philosophy, Speech, Drama and Expository writing in a New Jersey public high school for 16 years. Here I gained experience working with students preparing their college essays and various other writing projects and assignments. I have also directed plays and musicals and have worked as a camp counselor for a fine arts camp. Currently I am a d ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

A graduate of the College of New Jersey and the University of Scranton, I have received my degree in Social Studies Education and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. Since 2003, I have been employed as a high school teacher at the Bridgewater-Raritan High School where I have taught both United States and World History. During this time I have also tutored home bound students in World History, US History I, US History II, and Global Studies.
Throughout my teaching career, I have seen many students who learn in a variety of different ways. Because I realize that no one student learns in the same way, I try to use a variety of different methods in my teaching. One day may be simple lecture, while another day might be a hands on project. I also believe that kids learn visually, and I try to utilize technology whenever possible in the classroom. I very much enjoy teaching, an ... read more

I enjoy teaching children of all grades, because I put myself in their shoes. I remembered when I was in High School I always seeking help in my weak subjects, and I still do seek help because I am still learning. It is very important to help these students so they can be encouraged, and see themselves not as a failure but as a winner who seeks help and want to reach for the highest stars. I see it as a blessing to be able to help those students in their weak subject, that way I could be part of their success, the same way someone is part of mine.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a real passion for teaching, and tutoring allows me to have a strong connection with children and a better understanding of their learning preferences so that I may help them reach their goals. I am a life long learner and am enthusiastic about my subject matter. My students learn to share my enthusiasm for the material, and learn more productively as a result. I believe that in being patient, thoughtful and knowledgeable, students respond well to me and my teaching style. I bring an interdisciplinary approach to the material and am a proponent of the “Writing as Thinking” methodology as a way to teach effective writing. Great teachers can make a positive difference in a child's life and that is my ultimate goal as a tutor.
I would be a strong asset as a tutor given my 14 years of experience in the business world, including launching a successful start-up as an entrepre ... read more
