Tutor - Writing, Reading, GED Prep

I worked for two years at the Cleveland State University Writing Center where I tutored writing and reading comprehension to undergraduate and graduate students of many academic backgrounds. I tutored students one-on-one and also taught writing workshops to groups of 3-6 students. In February of 2013, I began tutoring GED prep at Seeds of Literacy, an adult education organization in Cleveland. I am comfortable tutoring most topics covered on the test. If there is a topic I am unsure about, I will let you know up front. I am also certified to be a foster parent and subsequently possess well-rounded knowledge concerning the learning needs of children and young adults of varying abilities and learning styles.
My teaching style is patient, relaxed, and supportive. I tend to tailor my methods to the needs and personality of the student.

I love teaching and enjoy the field of education. I believe all children can learn and succeed. I want to change the academic mindset of our children. I have encountered students that do not have the passion or desire to excel. I feel that I am a very good teacher and I have made an impact in my students’ lives, however I can make an even bigger impact and change if I continually assist students in their quest for their dreams and aspirations.
I have been blessed to successfully earn a BA and MS in Biology. My degrees have allowed me to develop and enhance my analytical and technical skills in an area that is critical to the success of our children. I have had extensive experience developing and aligning curriculum, and training teachers.

My comments on tutoring GED : I have tutored students at several non-profit organizations in Cleveland for GED test preparation. I have successully mamanged a GED math and science preparation course. In nine months the success rate was increased by 64% I wrote an interactive math education program for GED test preparation and it is used by several school systems in N.E. Ohio

Punctual - prepared and professional. I look at learning rep. styles of students (pictorial, word or kinesthehic). I try to make the learning experience as painless as possible (especially math). I start with pre-tests to gauge where a student is at, then follow-up with teaching content and finish with a post-test to gauge learing objectives that have been met. Depending on the subject, I like to schedule 2-2.5 hrs ateach session. I also like to work out problems for students and e-mail them the results, where applicable.
I have over 15 years as a succesful instructor and tutor (middle school, high school, under graduate and graduate students)of mathematics,computer science (computer programing)and business courses including accounting, finance, statistics,economis, medical dosage calculations, hospital information statistics, etc. I also founded my Company, Alpha Omega ... read more

My passion for teaching is to ensure that each child reaches their full potential. I believe that every student has the ability to attend college. I have seen several students struggle with college admissions due to low test scores. I have seen numerous students overcome their testing fears and anxiety by practicing the skills and becoming more confident in their test taking abilities. I have patience and respect for each student, and hope that together we can improve their chances for the future.

I have experience working with learners of all ages. My earliest classroom experiences while studying at Kent State were with Kindergarten and 1st Grade classes, and I have substituted in classrooms all the way up through high school. I have worked with adults in a GED prep and ESL environment, and my certification/area of expertise is with adolescent and young adult learners.
I always seek to individualize my instruction. No two learners are alike, and this often gets lost in a busy crowded classroom. I believe that the ability to tailor instruction to a student's individual needs is essential for academic success.

A Little Bit About Me...

I always try to start from "where the student is" and build on from starting point. I believe in positive reinforcement and that anything worth having in life requires consistent effort. I frequently am told after a day of subbing, "Mr. Burns, you are the greatest sub ever!" My wife and I also still perform as musicians in local restaurants, including several Mexican restaurants where we perform many songs in Spanish.
I taught Middle School band for 30 years in the public schools, followed by 9 years part-time at the respected Old Trail School in Bath, OH. My bands at Bolich Middle School in Cuyahoga Falls, OH received many "Outstanding" ratings at O.M.E.A. contests. I have also substituted in several local school districts for a wide variety of subjects, including Spanish and French. I have also tutored Spanish privately, and given private lessons on piano and flute.

Me teaching style is similar to my leadership style, democratic. I like to have students explain what they are thinking when approaching a problem. This way, it is possible to determine where the breakdown may be. Examples, definitions, and sometimes taking a step back can make a significant difference when attempting to move forward. A strong base is vital.
My passion is sharing my knowledge with others. I studied at Kent State in Kent, Ohio. While at Kent I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science, and a minor in English with extensive course work in business. Following undergraduate study, I ventured on to complete a Master of Arts in Physical Education. My concentration was Therapeutic Recreation with a focus in gerontology. I taught a class during my graduate assistanceship and acted as a teaching assistant to three professors.

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of Shortwood and Cleveland State I have worked in different aspects of Education. I believe in excellence & have always encouraged my students to achieve same. My experiences include elementary, high school & college sstudents. I have worked as a Math teacher & tutor with students thru the undergraduate level.
Each person learns differently. Once I get to know the student, I adjust to their learning needs because I do believe that each person can learn. Yes it may take some longer but it can be achieved. My goal is to get the student to believe in what I am sharing and usually I do make a difference in their lives.I am available to the student based on needs, I am flexible, patient and very encouraging. I believe that boosting self confidence and offering alternate methods will increase or promote unerstanding and eventually learning.
