Lets make learning fun!

Varies from student to student
I have experience in tutoring elementary and middle school students. I found it to be very enjoyable and they did too! I do my very best to make sure your child has a good time while learning. It seems that when they are enjoying themselves they are more likely to remember what was taught. My methods of tutoring will depend on what learning style your child is most comfortable with. It is of great importance that your child builds confidence and the skills needed to move forward. I will make sure your child does not feel overwhelmed or stressed out with what I teach. By the way I teach, your child wont even realize they are being tutored! I ensure your child will improve in the subjects I tutor and have a blast while doing so! I look forward to hearing from you.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student of history in both undergraduate and graduate school I have been trained to read actively, think critically, and write creatively. I also have experience working as a Youth Advocate and Direct Service Professional. Additionally, I volunteered my time as a teaching assistant for two college level courses, Civilizations and Cultures of Southern Africa and African American Culture.
In the past I have engaged students with music, film clips and leading questions to put a new perspective on required reading.

My comments on tutoring Poetry : I am NYS certified in Literacy (grades 5-12) and English (grades 7-12), although I have several years of experience with children as young as Kindergarten.

Holding active NYS certifications in both English and Literacy has had a tremendous impact on the way I teach. I find myself much better able to engage struggling students. Quite often, particularly when it comes to reading, it is the lack of basic comprehension skills that prevent students from being able to fully engage with a text and to perform critical thinking tasks. My experience in diagnosing and instructing students at various stages and abilities of literacy acquisition has helped me garner a talent for overcoming this challenge, and propelling students into higher order thinking.
As an educator, I view myself not as a provider of knowledge, but rather as a facilitator. I aim to encourage the critical thinking that will serve students not only in the classroom, but throughout their lives. In my experience, I have become well-versed in student-centered curriculum develo ... read more

All children can learn,

I have taught Language Arts in Middle School, 7th and 8th grade. In addition, I taught all major subjects in Grades 3, 4, 5. I have worked with students in regular education classes, and also have had previous experience with special needs children ( behavior and academics). My students have been successful with city and state assessments, and in the recently developed ratings in NYC I am "effective", very close to "highly effective", in their newly developing rating system.
My style adapts to student's needs. There are multiple points of entry for undertanding.

Mentoring style of teaching.
Teaching Philosophy One’s teaching philosophy is continually evolving over time. Evolution occurs because teaching is an ongoing process. This process has brought me to develop my own personal teaching philosophy. The philosophy I have created is one that is student centered. My classrooms have become student centered. I have decided to acquaint myself with the needs and expectations of my students. The classroom culture I desire is one where my students may know they are safe and secure to learn. They need to know they are allowed to fail because one truly learns from one’s failures. Failure should not have negative connotations but to know failing only points out what we need to learn and also know what are successes are as well. In order for this to be accomplished in the classroom, I have developed, for the time being, a teaching strategy. The str ... read more

Experienced, articulate, caring educator available to tutor.

I am a Speech and Theatre educator with a strong background in English. I have worked with young people over the past twenty years and have been privileged to see many of them benefit from the Speech, Theatre and English training they received in my programs or by tutoring. In this era of instant communication, many of my former students have reached out to me to let me know how meaningful the work was for them and how it motivated them in their lives and helped them to find their true callings. For this, I am profoundly grateful.
Committed, engaging, appropriately direct, friendly but professional, caring, insightful, compassionate, skilled, motivating. I use appropriate humor and candor to motivate. I do have a behavior policy of mutual respect which sets a protocol and from which all parties mutually benefit.

My comments on tutoring Poetry : I was president of my high school's poetry club, was awarded golden keys in poetry by the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, and studied poetry under Marie Howe in my senior year of college.

I have been a private tutor and academic coach since the summer of 2020. Previously, I taught creative writing to children ages 8-18 at Writopia Lab's summer sleepaway camp (2017). I interned with the reading specialist, ESL teacher, art teacher, and speech therapist at Anne Hutchinson School in 2016 and 2017. I helped students struggling with reading and writing. I worked as a volunteer teaching assistant at Sarah Lawrence College's Early Childhood Center in 2016 and again during the 2019-2020 school year.

Reading and writing are both passions, not parlor tricks.

I am gracious to say that I have accumulated nearly fifteen years of impassioned decorated reading and writing where I was the honored recipient of the Proficiency With Distinction Award for critical thinking, literature, as well as reading comprehension in 2012. I have two short stories published by a high profile Vermont newspaper (Vermont Journal), both of which were published in 2014 and were the recipients of statewide acclaim and accolades. I hold the ability to read comprehensively and to write critically with a flaring imagination and analytical wit at the utmost highest regard. The power of the written word is unparalleled and is a passion of mine beyond description.
