More About This Tutor...

I believe that each student has a unique learning style and therefore, teachers must develop a unique approach to each an every student. By providing a comfortable learning environment, students feel more open to share and learn. Trust and respect between teacher and student is essential for the best learning to take place. With a student-centered approach, each individual can gain the most from their time in school.
After finishing Graduate School, I immediately began working as a 7th Grade Summer School English Teacher. Along with a one month Long-Term Substitute position teaching 9th and 11th grade English and Advanced English, I was prepared to take on a full-time role. Now as a full-time English Language Arts Support Study Teacher, I work closely with small groups of students to help improve their ELA skills and their general study skills to help improve their overall educ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am interested in tutoring because I love teaching regardless of the subject matter. I’ve been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try several different content areas such as Special Education 7th grade Science in a Push-In model, ESOL, Home and Careers, Career and Financial Management as well as substitute teaching in many areas K-12, in addition to teaching technology in multiple districts. My background as a manufacturing engineer gives me a vantage point of what is required in the real world for success and survival in the working world. Even though teaching is my second career, it is truly what I love to do. Working one to one with students to help them find success in school, while enjoying learning, is my personal goal.
Once in a classroom I realized that I was meant to teach. I love working with students who are challenging and those who challenge me. I believe tha ... read more

I enjoy teaching one on one more then in a group class setting and I do enjoy teaching individual more then in a group setting. I do wish to teach "Chinese" as a personal language when I retire in the future if we don't have SS since I am a baby boomer (hope this is not true)
Born as a Chinese national and I speak fluent Chinese Mandarin language and I studied Business in Accounting and graduated from SUNY Brockport in 1990 and my mathematical course I always get "A" on my grade (I even get 105 on my test score, believe it or not) and I still love math. Therefore I can tutoring not only business in Accounting and also Math or language in Chinese.

I have had a love of teaching since I was a young child. I have always wanted to be the teacher as we played school. My teaching style is one as a facilitator. I believe in role modeling and coaching/guiding students in developing and applying skills and knowledge. I emphasize a student-learning environment. My focus is on students’ needs and goals and the willingness to explore options and alternative courses of action. My teaching methods include asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives and encouraging students to develop criteria to make informed choices. I believe that students learn best when they actively engage in the content and take responsibility for their learning. I

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching teenagers and adults. My students consider me to be organized, upbeat, humorous, and creative. Learning tough subjects does not have to be a grind or scary. My students can achieve lots of small victories at every session and I am ready with positive and constructive feedback. I enjoy getting to know each student and assessing his/her learning style, so that together, we can develop achievable goals and, hopefully have some fun amidst the hard work.I offer a great guarantee: there is a 100% chance that a student's skills--and even attitude--will improve after we work together!

I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis. I have been successful in doing so by utilizing a vast array of methodologies to instruct and provide examples which are relevant to each unique student. I believe there is no greater reward than unlocking each individual's potential for academic interest and success.
Throughout my academic career, I have been motivated to achieve at a high level, regardless of the discipline I was studying. This motivation has allowed me to obtain two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BA in Psychology. My specialization in two distinct areas has allowed me to adapt to a variety of research and writing methods.

The great joy for me in teaching literature and composition is sharing strategies for powerful communication to students who are blocked. Although I am inspired and passionate about English, I enjoy demystifying it and revealing how skills in other areas not only apply but can be key. Whether helping readers gain access to poetry or sharing methods to help organize thoughts or research for an essay, I enjoy helping students identify and craft their own insights into effective and powerful messages.
As a Magna Cum Laude graduate, my ten years of professional teaching experience as a lead teacher of secondary English is interspersed with a variety of other relevant experience. In addition to teaching literature, composition and grammar, I have also tutored professionally for Kaplan as part of the federally mandated No Child Left Behind program and for other private tutoring service ... read more

Since learning is such an individual endeavor, I believe that flexibility is one of the most important ingredients for good teaching. A good teacher (or tutor) is responsive to the student's learning style, and indeed, to the student's mood during any given learning session. I feel that I am attuned to the cues that most students give and am able to respond with an a approach that would be most effective. If the student is a visual learner, we will work with that in mind. If he or she learns better by being actively involved, then I take on the role of a coach. Obviously, one size does not fit all!

I spend a lot of time (as much as needed) to make a student grasp concepts. Once concepts are well understood, it becomes easy to solve problems. For this reason, the rate of progress depends on the student's interest and dedication to study. I assume that if a student is willing to pay for tutoring, the incentive to learn will not be lacking. The student's competence improves when the student solves a variety of problems. My objective is to help the student solve problems with minimal assistance, so that the student will excel in school.
