Elementary Expert Offering Results

I am knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and experienced working with children with a variety of needs. I believe every child is an individual that should be treated with respect and understanding. My approach to teaching utilizes a child's interests, technology, engaging texts, and inquiry-based projects. Tutoring can be so much more than impersonal instruction.
Greetings! I'm a certified elementary educator with seven years of experience working as a basic skills teacher, test prep tutor, and for the last five years a third grade teacher. I am trained in STEM and reading and writing workshops. I pride myself on growing student's reading levels, writing, and critical thinking. I'm currently looking to tutor additional students and would be happy to assist with homework and projects, as well as develop study skills, test readiness, and fundamentals.

Learning Improves with Positive Reinforcement.

I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem.
I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.

If you Need a Tutor, Look No Further!

I have been tutoring since 2004 both privately and employed. I had worked at The Tutoring Center at St. Dominic's parish on Frankford Ave., in NE Phila. from 2004 until it closed in 2009. I have also tutored privately in the past and continue to do so. I have tutored students from preschool all the way up to college. I have helped students who were behind not only catch up to their current grade level but also stay current with their present material.
The Key for me is to Make Learning as Fun & as Easy as you can! Bc the more a student likes what he/she is learning the more he/she will want to learn! And to do that, you have to Know your student - his/her learning process. I also make a point to ask my students what they like & then I use that to make my lessons Fun & Enjoyable rather than a Chore or something they don't want to do! I also Explore Why they find a particular topic h ... read more

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined.

I have become very involved in youth development and academic success. I also am a motivational speaker for high schools and colleges. I believe that any student can achieve their dreams and goals.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, assertive, and considerate.

A Little Bit About Me...

I evaluate the student's degree of familiarity with the subject to see what areas need the most attention. I affirm the student's strengths and reinforce their ability to grasp the subject, using a conversational style with interim "checking" questions to secure agreement that the material covered thus far is understandable. I make the learning interactive, a mutual effort to bring the student to the point where he or she feels confident in their understanding of the subject. I reinforce they do understand and instill confidence in that knowledge as a tool to tackle those areas which may be more intimidating to the student.

All of my jobs since graduating college have allowed me to help children work to their potential. Since my major is Special education, I have a strong sense of compassion and empathy.

More About This Tutor...

As a tutor my goal is to give students a reason to be excited about their school subjects by giving them a realistic application to their lessons. When students can see a purpose for what they are learning, it may ignite an excitement in them that was not existent previously. Through my experience working with students from all backgrounds and academic levels, I am confident in all students' abilities to grasp concepts and excel. This can be done by assessing each student's individual learning style and pin pointing the child's interests and strengths and applying them to the subject at hand.
In college I served as a tutor in a number of capacities. I tutored Business Calculus at The College of New Jersey and I served as a volunteer reading tutor with Martin House, a non-profit organization in Trenton, NJ. As a volunteer, I helped students prepare for the NJ Ask assesment. ... read more
