I always knew I wanted to work with children, and have taken various jobs in the educational field. I worked in a daycare center during college. I have also been a substitute teacher and worked a in summer school program for children with autism. I have a B.A. in psychology with a minor in sociology from UConn. I am presently persuing my M.A. in school counseling, and will be completing a full-time internship in a high school counseling department during the 2010-2011 school year.

A Little Bit About Me...

I usually introduce topics by implementing collaborative learning exercises. I ask prompting questions to stimulate my students to be involved in learning the basic concepts. Humor, real-world connections, hands-on materials, and technology help students develop a better understanding and therefore the information is more likely stored in long term memory.
During the past two years, I have worked as a full-time Mathematics teacher. I have taught Honors Geometry, College Geometry, General Geometry, General Algebra I and Applied Mathematics. I planned and instructed Mathematics using a wide variety of teaching aids, motivational and implementation strategies to engage students in active learning. I also developed a new program for General Geometry course more applicable to student’s with special needs. Before and during my full-time position, I tutored in small group and one-on-on ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am seeking a degree in Finance and Actuarial Sciences from the University of Connecticut. I achived a high level of proficiency in math from a very young age and finish Advanced Calc 3 and a half years ago. I have tutored a student for his entire second year of high school in all subjects with noticable GPA improvements.
I developed a patient style of simply allowing a student to set his own pace yet make sure he lives up to his own promises. Making lasting commetments allowes the student to take controle of his own improvement, yet allows me to see what he need direction in. In showing the student alternative practices, he will see the benifit in changing his ways for the better.

I am a highly dedicated tutor who enjoys working directly with students and seeing them succeed. I am a firm believer that many students benefit from an individualized tutor because he or she provides an active and collaborative learning relationship. For many students, this type of relationship and level of interaction makes the learning experience much more meaningful. I strive to help students learn by keeping them engaged in our sessions and challenging them to think critically about the subject matter, rather than by simply providing answers. I believe self-determination is an important skill for any student, and encourage them to lead tutoring sessions while voicing their ideas, concerns and levels of understanding as needed. When necessary, I try to help students learn more about their own learning style, and emphasize strategies for reading, studying, problem solving, and or ... read more

I enjoy identifying and using a broad range of materials that facilitate the learning of the students that I teach. I am familiar with many of the texts used to teach Spanish and English as a Second Language. When I first meet a student, I like to find out what materials s/he is being taught with and the subject areas that the student is weak in or is struggling with. Then, I think about how much time the student and I will have together to strengthen the student’s knowledge so that s/he will successfully bring his/her grades up in the subject areas identified. After that, I create a plan with the student that focuses on the work that I as a tutor and s/he as the student need to do so that our time together is productive and valuable.

I enjoy teaching and working with all students- elementary to college-age. I have experience tutoring and mentoring children of all ages, including special-needs children. I gain great satisfaction from knowing I am helping students succeed. Knowledge is power.
As a graduate student at Bay Path College in Longmeadow, MA I have mastered the fields of finance, accounting, technical writing, and computer skills. As a paralegal, my attention to detail has allowed me to master all rules of grammar and language format. While attending undergraduate school in Colorado I tutored classmates in Spanish, Italian, and writing. I also volunteered as a law clerk and taught Greek Mythology and Sociology to middle and high-school students expelled from school and placed in the Boulder County Juvenile Justice Center.

Math can be fun, especially when applied to exciting applications. For my work at NASA and the MITRE Corporation I use concepts from Calculus I-II almost everyday. Inspiring students to become excited about math and science is one of my life-long goals. Step by step visual diagrams can be effective tools for describing complex ideas. From my experience as a teacher and student I have had great success creating simple graphics to accompany otherwise dense math equations for circuits, data structures and statistics. This teaching style coupled with a fresh knowledge of math material as a graduating senior make me confident that I can be an asset to your team this summer. I will be returning to my home in Connecticut May 18th and would welcome the opportunity to and discuss starting work at Advanced Learners!

My primary activities during my professional career have been teaching and counseling. My experience covers clients across the lifespan: from infants in early care and education through grand- parents in post-secondary education and college courses. I have taught and tutored the basics: reading, writing, composition, comprehension, fluency, basic mathmatical functions, etc. I have also taught major required and elective courses in the field of Social and Behavioral Sciences.
As the "Summary of Experience" paragraph describes, I enjoy teaching people of all ages. I suppose my first love is working with young learners: seeing the "aha!" spark that shines when a child first absorbs a concept or masters a skill that is new, or one which has previously proved difficult. My teaching style could be described as "eclectic", in that I draw from the many resources available to find a "l ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I was more of an instructor than a teacher. I was a day camp counselor at Solway House parent/child resort in Saugerties N.Y. I instructed kids how to swim, dive, play various sports and gave dancing lessons to the guests. As a high school student I tutored 7th and 8th graders in an after school community center. I was one of a few staff at the University of Connecticut to instruct graduates and staff in the use of the various electronic facilites available to them.
I feel children are very self-aware and are very vulnerable to positive and negative feedback. Therefore, no matter how little progress is made, praise them. If no progerss is made or if an issue needs to re-addressed, praise them..."That was great, but let's try it this way!" I feel that you are positive, smiling, and they believe that you believe in them, 9 out of 10 kids will follow you!

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching comes second nature to me. I believe that all students can learn, but each person requires a different style of instruction in order to fully understand the subject. I provide multiple kinds of instruction while keeping a patient and easy going mentality. It is my goal to help each student not only come to understand the subject, but be able to apply it in real life settings. This type of teaching can make a difference in each of my students' lives.
As a University of Connecticut graduate, I was very driven by my passion for the sciences. I earned a BS in pathobiology with a minor in molecular and cell biology. I was a well rounded student which has afforded me skills in math, psychology, and English. I have worked as a rowing coach for many years and have the patience and drive to help you reach academic goals.

My teaching style incorporates many different modes in realizing that children learn in all different ways. I try to incorporate as many different types of learning styles as I can into lessons, using visual, auditory and hands on approaches. I am an understanding person and realize that students of all ages do not always comprehend something the first time it is taught to them. I will put in the time and effort to ensure that the child’s specific targeted areas of needs are addressed. I only want what is best for the student and will do whatever it takes to ensure that students I work with are reaching their set goals. I love working with children and I think teaching is one of the most rewarding jobs there is!

As an English major at Trinity College I expanded on my knowledge and love of reading and writing. During my tenure at Trinity, I was a teaching assistant for an introductory writing class and assisted other Trinity students with developing their writing abilities.
I enjoy watching students use their natural curiosity to learn new things. By helping them ask the right questions and encouraging them to reach and utilize their imagination, students can achieve so much.

My experience with tutoring, employee training and working with my own two children has shown me that there are many different learning styles and paces. It is exciting to find that key for each person and watch their growth and development through learning. Up front, I believe it is important to understand the goals of the student and their family and then focus on providing the support necessary to see them achieve and exceed those goals.
Following my graduation from the University of Connecticut I pursued a career in the insurance industry but have also spent time working as a youth group leader and worked as a part-time tutor for several years. While living in Connecticut I tutored homebound high school age children who were either out on medical leave or expelled for disciplinary purposes. I am proud to report that in addition to several other students, I provided tutoring ... read more

I am very good at math, so in college I got into the tutoring program for inner city elementary students and the student I tutored showed remarkable improvement in her math grades as a result. Many years later I was accepted into the Alternate Route to Certification II program and received my Math 7-12 teaching certificate in May 2003.
Working with middle school students is an adventure. The students all have different ways of learning, so blackboard work is a great way for them to visualize, and I also use 3 dimensional models when they are appropriate. My experience showed me that the students that wanted to learn would stay after school to get more individualized attention, which I was always available to give them. That moment when they understood the math concept I was teaching was the best part.
