Individualized learning/teaching for optimal comprehension

I started tutoring in my teens helping young children with Autism Spectrum Disorders develop English and Math skills as well as speech therapy and public speaking. I tutored my fellow students while attending Carroll Community College in English 101 and 102 as well as Creative Writing. I then moved on to being a one on one with high school students with special needs in the Baltimore area.
I take a hands on material approach to learning/teaching. I feel that young students learn best when they can physically learn, such as through blocks/puzzles/interactive learning devices and other similar approaches. I try to let the student use their hands as much as I can to aid in their learning process. For older students such as my high school students or their college counterparts I use more direct audial teaching and visual teaching styles. Every person learns differently, so I cater my t ... read more

Equipping, Movtivating & Stimulating Minds!

I help others become their best selves. I enjoy teaching and tutoring youth and adults. Over the years, I have had opportunities to not only mentor and tutor youth, but to teach and tutor adults, as well. I have experience teaching and tutoring the following subjects: (1) Language Arts/Reading; (2) Language Arts/Writing; (3) Social Studies; (4) Basic Math (Whole Numbers, Fractions, Decimals, Percents and Pre-Algebra); (5) Creative Writing; and (6) Environmental Education. I have experience helping adult learners pass the GED Exam.
When teaching, I take the time to learn my students' personalities and strengths. Then, I tailor a strength-based approach to teaching my students new concepts and ideas. I usually incorporate a mixture of traditional and non-traditional teaching techniques in my lesson plans. I provide structured opportunities and supports for my students to apply w ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education from Salisbury University and have been a preschool teacher since I graduated in 2009. I have worked with children from infancy to school age, but most of my experience is with early education. I have a passion for reading and writing, but I'm able to teach all subject areas at the elementary level, including general learning and studying skills that will help students excel in school.
I have a hands-on approach to learning when it's appropriate for the subject level. Aside from that, I tailor all my teaching methods to each individual's needs, depending on one's learning style.

More About This Tutor...

I really enjoy teaching students and working with them one-on-one. I have nine years of experience teaching preschool and kindergarten, at both public and private schools. I just received my Master's degree in Reading Education from Towson University, which gave me the opportunity to develop my skills in individualized instruction. I studied guided reading, literacy in the content areas, individualized literacy instruction, and other areas during my Master’s in Reading Specialty program at Towson University. I have experience assessing students, grouping student flexibly, and planning engaging, as well as effective, instruction.
I believe in a play-based approach to teaching new concepts. My approach to teaching is to generate excitement over learning, which I believe helps cement ideas in young children’s heads. In my early literacy lessons, I play games like "The 3 Str ... read more

Learning should never be boring!

I specialize in differentiation of instruction. I like to incorporate different types of projects and assignments to help students learn. I also like to use data to drive instruction and to create a customized learning plan for each particular student.
I have experience in teaching special education at the elementary and middle school level in Baltimore city public schools for over four years. I also have experience providing tutoring services with the Bell Foundation for under privileged students. During the summer of 2010 through 2012 I have also worked as a Assistant Camp director at St. Vincent Summer camp for homeless children. These experiences have allowed me to work in the field of education on different levels.

A Little Bit About Me...

My passion for teaching is open forum. I meet the students where they are. some are visual, some hands on and some automated. I pace the student and test in areas of weakness. I provide computer advance learning as well as class and peer mentoring.

I like the student to process information by coming to the board and classroom prompts to get students involved in the daily lesson.

I currently have two degrees: a B.S. in Environmental Science and a B.A. in Global Studies. In pursuing these degrees I have gained knowledge in various fields including biology, math, chemistry, global politics and economics, Spanish language and culture, and history. Additionally, I have worked for the past three years at a summer camp where I was the Art instructor for children ages 6 to 16; as such I have experience interacting with children of all ages. Finally, for the past two summers I have travelled to Kenya and Peru to work with underprivileged children - these experiences have made me comfortable working with children from all different backgrounds and have taught me the value of education worldwide.

More About This Tutor...

I hold a bachelor degree in Elementary Education from Towson University where I interned for two years in both urban and suburban settings. During my college years, I was a biology and history tutor. After graduation, I taught mathematics to children at risk of failing. Currently, I teach reduction reading and mathematics in an inclusive setting.
I believe it is important to find every child's unique learning style and use that tho help them reach their potential. I am patient and willing to approach a subject from multiple angles to ensure success. My college was a constructivist school and I have included this style into my teaching. Discovery learning helps a child understand why skills are important. My goal is to help my students reach their full potential.

More About This Tutor...

I am keenly aware of how busy most students are, so my aim is for tutoring to feel like something they get to do and not something they have to do. Teaching revitalizes my own love for learning, a love I hope to impart in a gentle, patient manner. I believe in honoring the variance in learning styles, and I empower my students to engage with material in ways that feel natural to them.
I have implemented individualized reading and writing programs for students ranging from pre-K to adult; gave one-on-one attention to special needs students in phonics, context-based reading, and fact retention; cultivated students’ understanding of grammar/punctuation, sentence/paragraph construction, and general cohesiveness in creative and academic writing; worked one-on-one with high school students on SAT critical reading and writing sections, devoting extra attention to vocabulary expansion.
