I have found that tutoring sessions are most effective when they are fun! Many students find it difficult to stay focused, especially after a full school day. For this reason, I prefer to change tasks frequently and use a variety of fun games to switch up the pace of the session. Learning can be frustrating for many students when a particular subject does not come as naturally or easily as other subjects. Thus, I do my best to incorporate student's interests into reward systems and constantly give the student positive feedback about their progress to help motivate the student. I work hard to get to know the student and tailor tasks and activities to their particular learning style.

While it is my belief that all students have the ability to learn; I also understand that academics can be difficult. It is my job to support students who, for whatever reason, are having a difficult time in school, as well as provide extra support for students who want to get ahead. In the learning environments I provide, students are safe to ask questions, provide ideas and make mistakes while receiving respect and patience. While I support students in a positive manner by giving praise and constructive feedback, I also make sure that students are working hard and receiving authentic responses in a respectful manner.
As the daughter of two educators, I spent my childhood immersed in educational values. My passion for education lead me to attend Western Washington University where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Secondary Education and History. I tutored Geometry and worked in ... read more

Providing educational support services is a continual, developmental process. Just as employees and students change, so should the support services that are available. Services should be flexible and diverse while at the same time maintaining the highest level of quality. Strong educational supports will promote critical thinking and skill development in its students. It will offer variety, through complex learning environments and barrier-free opportunities. Additionally effective support services will address the whole student, from a personal perspective, offering assistance with non-academic issues that will allow the student to perform and achieve at his/her greatest capacity.

I enjoy taking what I know about a subject, weighing what my student's learning style is and then tailoring a lesson so that student best understands the material. I welcome the moment when the lesson "clicks" for the student and when subject matter on paper or in a book becomes personal knowledge. To me, the true skill and knowledge of a teacher can only be quantified in how her student apprehends and applies the lesson. There is a world of difference between those who are regarded as experts and those who can take their knowledge and make it available to others. While I do seek to be an expert, I seek even more to help those around me become knowledgeable "peer learners."

I have been interested in education my entire life. After receiving my B.A. from Penn State University, I was an elementary teacher in my hometown, Oxford, Pennsylvania. This experience ignited a spark in me to continue my education. I received an M.A. and Ed.D in Educational Leadership from Western Michigan University. More recently, I was a student at Western Washington University in their elementary teacher certification program. I've had experience as an elementary and high school paraeducator working with special needs' students. I enjoy tutoring children of all ages in reading, especially phonics, and some math.
As a regular classroom teacher, I felt hampered due to class size. I was never satisfied connecting with just a few students. Every student was important to me. I realized that the only way for me to really reach students was by reducing the teacher-student r ... read more

I place a high value on practical education. I graduated high school at the top of my class and received my AA degree just a few of months later- all while working full-time. I then obtained my BA in Organizational Management and I am now in a local graduate degree program. Because of my heavy workload I was able to develop effective and efficient study methods. I have been tutoring, mentoring and coaching children, teens and adults for the past nine years with great success to them academically, socially and emotionally. I also have a great desire to teach adults and have tutored many in computer skills Specifically, I have tutored students in English (literature, grammar, writing, etc.), mathematics, science, and liberal arts.

More About This Tutor...

My experience in tutoring is a mix of working with large tutoring agencies as well as local one-on-one at home tutoring services. I have worked with students on elementary school math and reading, as well as SAT and ACT preparation. My greatest experience was when I helped a particular student with her writing skills, not just by drilling and practicing, but by boosting her confidence. With a system of positive reinforcements, we started to build upon her strengths. Her grammar and punctuation have improved vastly, and even her skills in other areas have improved because she is more willing to take risks. Those results were quite rewarding for me, and I realized that I want to help more students break barriers and achieve new limits.
Studies show that people who are used to success are more likely to try again and again when confronted with a challenge. My goal is to build a s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe strongly in the importance of traditional subjects such as grammar and composition, reading for comprehension and appreciation, and knowledge of our cultural heritage. I tailor my tutoring to the student's personal experiences and background, in order that he/she has a real connection to the material. I strive to explain fully the practical purpose of any subject we are covering, as well as how study of a given subject can, does, and will enrich the student's life, now and in the years to come. I take time to explain how each bit of new knowledge is a building block, and you must begin with a firm foundation before you can climb high in a subject area and feel the thrill at the pinnacle of your study. I like to incorporate a sense of humor as well as "reality checks" in my communication with pupils; i.e., sometimes we have to reach inside ourselves to find a reason to compl ... read more
