More About This Tutor...

I have the patience and discipline to assist students in learning. I believe any child can learn if provided positive reenforcement. While you lead by example, you must require the child to learn by trying and failing on their own. The trick to success is knowing when to show the child the correct solution and preventing frustration from setting in.
While serving as a division chief in a major Army Command, I had the responsibility to hire and mentor dozens of interns and recent college graduates. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Accounting, which has provided a detailed understanding of business and math. I have learned extensive grammatical skills while writing technical documents and correspondence.

As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches.
Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way!

A Little Bit About Me...

As a teacher I believe that students learn best by doing, so I plan my lessons to engage students with meaningful activities that are mastered with hands on activity rather than teacher lead discussion.
I have worked in a wide range of business and educational settings and have worked with students from grade school to adult. When I earned my BS in English, with a thirty credit business minor, I already had fifteen years experience working in a family run retail store. I have since worked a range of jobs including teaching business, computer and English classes. I also worked as a computer systems installer, service manager and office manager. I bring to my teaching a wide range of experience combined with a strong understanding of my subject areas.

I have three basic ideas that guide me in the classroom. 1) I feel I have a personal obligation be intellectually engaging and informative. I understand my responsibility to provide students with information and ideas such as critical thinking and writing. 2) I encourage a stimulating, safe learning environment to ensure that students are eager and comfortable about their participation. I treat students respectfully, and ask that they treat their peers with the same level of respect. I encourage a forum for ideas and always solicit participation in the classroom. 3) I help students understand how education prepares them for the future. I constantly stress the relevance of the subject matter, by using real world examples.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like a jump right in style that is forthright and honest. I have a sense of humor, and will use it teaching, but only sparingly. I believe that the student's desire to learn is the biggest factor in his or her mastering information. I have a lot of experience working with students who have had terrible education experiences, who have not had support at home, who have made bad personal decisions. These all effect knowledge, but not the ability to learn. I love to see students grasp something that has eluded them previously. I firmly believe that children's and adults lives can be changed for the better from good teaching, and I strive to impart real skills and develop character.
After graduating from college, I worked in a Top Secret position in Washington, D.C. I left that position to pursue teaching, and earned a Masters from Boston University. I taught high school class ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a healthcare consultant with an associate degree in Management and bachelor degree in Business Administration, I spent much of my time writing, presenting, and educating. My mathematical, grammatical, presentation and writing skills were honed. I taught all levels of hospital personnel how to improve operations and use their new computer systems in both classroom and private sessions. I did some private tutoring last summer. I am an approved substitute teacher for the Indian River School District.
Many students have difficulty in a classroom setting because the teacher teaches one way, while not all students learn the same way. I believe in getting to know my students during our initial sessions to discover how they learn. Listening and picking up on verbal and body language cues allows me to relate with students. Patience and perseverance are my strong points. If one method do ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love working with children. Each child learns in a different way and at a different pace. I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to find the special key for each child to unlock the magic of learning. One good teacher who can relate to your child may change that child's life forever. I have a positive supportive approach to teaching.
As a graduate, with degrees in Economics and English, I have experience in mathematics and writing. Communication skills are very important in all fields. The written skills for essays, reports, research papers and letters are critical for any field a student wishes to pursue. I have taught young children to swim and have also worked with handicapped children.

I use a "Consultive Style", i.e. I ask good questions to ascertain where the student needs help. I also try to identify what they may find difficult and how we may best address this issue. I also demonstrate where the subject we are studying may prove very helpful in careers and/or lives.
