Tutor - Writing, Reading, GED Prep

My teaching style is patient, relaxed, and supportive. I tend to tailor my methods to the needs and personality of the student.
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 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

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 Education and Training Systems,Ltd., in 2001. This Company develops interactive math education software for schools, collges and individuals.
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, ... read more

After working in the Marketing/PR field for 5 years, I relocated to Puerto Rico to be with my husband. Not having a solid foundation of the language, I could not obtain a job in my previous field. It was at this time that I discovered the world of education. I began substitute teaching at the Department of Defense School and continued doing that for one year. We were then relocated to Savannah, GA and I was hired by a private school to teach 6th and 7th grade English, Literature and Social Studies. I taught at this school for 3 years and tutored each summer. We then relocated to Ohio and I have been tutoring for the past six months(including inner city students).
I thoroughly enjoyed the Marketing and Public Relations field, but I never could have imagined the fulfillment I would recieve within education. I love to challenge my students and show them just how much they can a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I consider myself a very energetic, competent tutor who considers teaching an art. I enjoy working with students to help them achieve their full potential. In many situations, the main reason that students struggle in learning and grasping certain academic subjects is due to the fact that students suffer a major disconnect with the course textbook on the subject. I consider it my job to bridge the gap between what the text is trying to communicate and what the student is retaining from the text. In working to close this gap, I often create my own learning aids that a student can understand. I delight in seeing students become excited about a subject matter as their initial fear gives way to a whole new understanding of the subject.
I have tutoring experience in mathematics at the secondary and high school levels. One example of tutoring at the secondary level was when I tutor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching, or the best teachers, are required to have a certain undertanding that not just anyone has. I think teaching is a decision that demands patience, excitement, encouragement, care, and the love of making the best students possible. Constructivist approaches to learning and inquiry based teaching, appreciating multiple intelligences, and methods of learning, are all part of my approach to teaching. Students have interests that vary and their interests may very well round out their desire to learn. I strive to make sure to it that my students take away something to learn every time that I see them.
As a driven student & business owner, I've had ownership stakes in different businesses. Educationally, I have had a natural love for mathematics (BS) & life sciences (short of minors in chemistry, physics, and biology). As my involvement in business increased while still in s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Learning is always easier when it is fun and interesting. In any given teaching situation I look for ways to add zest to learning. At the outset of tutoring I do an assessment of where students are currently achieving in a specific subject area, and identify skills that they may be lacking. Next, I develop a learning plan with specific goals. This becomes the basis for a learning contract between myself and the person seeking tutoring. Learning is best achieved in an interactive teaching style where students are encouraged to ask questions and participate in problem solving. I am a patient person who believes that all students can successfully learn.
My undergraduate years at Princeton University instilled in me a passion for learning and a personal commitment to academic excellence. Most of my adult work life has been focused on coaching individuals to overcome handicaps and maxi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching philosophy revolves around individual student needs. I understand that all students learn differently and sometimes teaching to "the middle" that is common in many educational system is just not effective for every student. I spend a lot of time talking to the student and observing them to figure out how best to help them. In this way, I am able to provide the best educational experience possible for every student.
I began tutoring as a high school student for the Wayne State University Math Corps. I tutored students entering the 7th and 8th grade in math topics ranging from basic math to calculus. I continued tutoring at the University of Michigan in the Sweetland Writing Center, helping college students draft and revise essays for a variety of subjects. I also spent a summer in Honduras teaching English to elementary students ranging from grade K-5. In this setting I ... read more
