Student at Wellesley College

I taught English to low income Brazilian students in Sao Paulo Brazil's largest favela for 4 years in high school. Now, as a student at the accredited Wellesley College, I tutor young elementary aged pupils in reading and math. I received an International Baccalaureate Diploma in high school specializing in Biology, Mathematics, Visual Art, Critical Interpretation (English), and History. I also completed standard level Portuguese (as a fluent/native speaker). Prior to my tutoring and teaching experiences, I was also a babysitter for my neighborhood starting from the age of 10. I have taken babysitting classes during the summer, and from that have become certified by the American Red Cross. In addition to these formal opportunities, I have extensive experience volunteering for organizations such as the YMCA (teaching soccer camps and participating in the feeding programs), and Habitat for ... read more

I love helping people to see the other side of things, and understand how simple complex systems can be. Mainly, I like to inspire thought, and provoke an individual learning style in all those I mentor. In language and English, I believe reading diversity are key, in math I instill a grasp for formulas so that the child merely hast to insert numbers and follow routine, In history it's important to relate to today's issues and follow up boring facts with interesting relational occurrences. Overall, I seek to instill a joy with learning, and I pressure those I teach to not only understand, but creatively foster their own perspectives and takes on the matters at hand.
As a person I have always held my work ethic to remarkable standards. I've finished an Associate's Degree in two years flat, and am well on my way to having completed a bachelor's in only three and a half years time. Al ... read more

I am very much a hands-on instructor. Long ago, I heard the Chinese Proverb “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.” These words embody my personal teaching philosophy. I utilize a varied and balanced set of teaching strategies that will meet the needs of all types of learners. First, I determine the student’s preferred learning style (auditory, visual, or kinesthetic) and tailor my lessons accordingly. I then try as much as possible to make our lessons as relatable to the student’s likes and interests. Let’s face it, when the work is difficult and doesn’t relate to anything practical… what’s the point? When I am able to incorporate real-world examples and applications, students respond and things start to click!

What makes me a great tutor is my patience and understanding of a student in need. I believe all children are capable of success but sometimes may need a little extra help to get there. My teaching style is one of comparisons and analogies. Sometimes students just do not understand the mathematical terms. For this reason, I compare problems to something the student is familiar with, allow them to see the connection to the problem at hand and then guide them to solving the problem. This strategy has proven to be very successful and I've often had students tell me "You make it seem so easy!"
I have a bachelor degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, which has allowed me to gain a deep understanding of both sciences. I was also a Mathematics tutor at Florida A&M University for about two years. I tutored everything from grammar school mathematics up to Calculus II. I have al ... read more

My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task.

I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of thinking about the world and asking questions. Several themes appear again and again in concepts that on the surface may seem unrelated and it is recognizing these themes that is the key to success in building knowledge and confidence. My teaching philosophy is to point out these common threads binding various topics in science and relate it to the real world as quickly as possible, always with the goal of breaking it down to its simplest explanation.

Inquiry- I want the kids to learn through inquiry. Figuring out a problem through experimentation and critical thought of outcomes. I like to start with the basics and go from there. For older students, college and adults, I teach them study skills and notetaking and then go over the subject matter that they learned in class,
I have tutored my own children and have taught them to think cr itically and I tutored for 2 years as a Grad Assitant. I have worked in the Biological Science field for many years and I really enjoy teaching kids about science and it's impact on society

I have earned a bachelor degree in microbiolgy with a minor in medical laboratory technology which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of biology. Also, as a French native speaker, I went through intensive English lessons to be able to attend classes, writing laboratoy reports and assays in various area of study and graduate in an Anglo-saxon university. During the last six years I have tutored students in French, English and sciences.
One needs to be patient, calm, listening but firm when working with children, qualities that I have developed throughout years of experience. I used to tutor students as a part time activity, having a participative approach, as all children have different ways of learning. For that I use parallels and substitutions so as to drive the students to the answers. I do believe that every children can learn, provided they are taught th ... read more

Reflective of my disposition, immediately in order to establish a conducive learning environment in which the student feels comfortable, I try to employ a mellow, patient, open-minded and light-hearted atmosphere. I very much enjoy teaching, and try to make it so my student(s) enjoys learning. I was once asked by a student, "Are you a Biology teacher?" I replied, "No, just a student." She replied, "You should be." Generally I review and outline the material before-hand. During the session I welcome questions, and offer explanations relating direct facts, my own take on the subject/idea, diagrams, and even relevant fun stories to help them remember the fact/idea.

I have a passion for learning and seek to exude that into my teaching style. I like to have fun with my students and earn their trust at the same time. I do have a habit of catering to each need and trying my best at seeing to their success. While I strongly desire a structured atmosphere for learning, I do not shy away from a little spontaneity here and there. I have found that this keeps the attention of my students and also provides for their further enjoyment of particular subjects that would ordinarily be dull.
I have experience in teaching elementary & secondary grade levels. Having taught kindergarten and first grade, I have knowledge of the scope of learning for those levels as well as tutoring experience within that age group. Reading & science are my strong tutoring points. I have also provided counseling for students. In the secondary grades, I have taught and am curre ... read more

I returned to college because of my interest in pursuing a career in an allied health field and earned a master’s degree in Nutrition Education. I have utilized my English background in a number of ways including writing grant proposals and manuscripts. I have also developed curricula and educational materials for various nutrition and healthy lifestyle programs. I have used my teaching skills in mentoring student interns, training other professionals and in teaching Nutrition classes to children and families.
