A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching students of all ages and abilities. I think it's important for the student to connect to the material in a personal way, and as a teacher it is my responsibility to help them discover how. With a strong connection, and proper guidance, the student is able to then develop a passion for the material, and will thrive. I think it's important to give students positive encouragement, and ways for them to realize their progress, so as to develop confidence, and hence a stronger connection/passion.

I am a recent graduate from William Paterson University with a BA in Early Childhood Education (P-3) with certification in Elementary Education (K-5). I feel it's important for children to establish a life-long love of learning from a young age. I believe children are curious about how things work and where they come from. Therefore, it is important to promote a sense of wonder and curiosity through hands-on materials. Elementary students need a structured learning atmosphere that is developmentally appropriate. It is important to use a variety of teaching methods and strategies in order to establish lessons, activities, and instructions that are reasonable to each individual's developmental standing.
I believe it is extremely important to build a relationship with each student that I work with. Understanding each individual's skills and abilities helps differentiate instruction to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My original plan was to major in Education, but decided to double major in school, then obtain my teaching certificate after graduation. Now, armed with two degrees and a desire to enter the academic world once again -this time as the teacher - I am currently in the middle of getting my certificate for subbing, as well as seeking employment/ my certificate through Teach for America. I have gained experience that has helped me prepare to be a fantastic tutor: I took my PRAXIS exam and scored 90% on all three subject matters, I have tutored special needs students at the high school level, I have tutored ESL, and have been both a day camp and wildnerness guide, leading and teaching people of all ages and backgrounds. I love helping people reach their full potential. My goal is to see the proud expression on a student's face that says "I get it!"
It's true that every student learns at ... read more

I have worked extensively with children and adults in the study of a variety of different subjects. I am very patient, friendly, and considerate. I am a firm believer that learning should be an enjoyable and fun process that engages the student to think both critically and creatively. I strive to connect with every student on an individual level as I believe that everyone has a different way of learning and that, as a teacher, it is crucial to be flexible and creative in the way you teach. Many of my teachers have had a huge impact in my life, and I in turn, strive to make a difference in the lives of all of my students.

I have a range of experiences which help make me a superior candidate to tutor. I have lived and studied in Barcelona, Spain. During this experience I learned a lot about Spanish culture and brought my Spanish to a mastery level. I lived with a host family which gave me the opportunity to become more involve with Spanish culture and their traditions. Upon returning from Spain, I finished my degree at SUNY Oswego with two semesters of student teaching.
I have a very unique teaching style in that I like to incorporate many different presentation methods and I am a firm believer of teaching to multiple intelligences. No two students learn the same way and if the student is not learning the teacher is just as responsible as the student. This being said I have used many different teaching methods from having the students performing, and singing to setting up shops to buy and sell produc ... read more
