I Specialize in Chemistry and Math Tutoring

I hold three college degrees in Biology (B.S.), Chemistry (B.S.), and Industrial Engineering (M.S.). I also have practical experience working with organic chemicals and polymers because I was employed in the manufacturing sector for over 30 years. This combination of education and work experience benefits the students that I tutor by applying learned scientific principles to practical everyday use. I will be ready to answer the age old question students have when they ask "why do we need to learn this stuff when we will probably never use it?" I can also teach a student how to study and effectively make use of their study time. Making efficent use of time is almost as important as mastering the subjects themselves. I look forward to hearing from you so we can improve on your success.

Become a star, through dedication and desire to succeed!!

I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading. I began my education thinking I would be an elementary school teacher but then discovered my love of science so I took additional classes while completing my Master's so I could be certified to teach science. When I began teaching I realized many special education students were not receiving the appropriate accommodations to ensure their success so I decided to specialize in Special Education as I pursue my PhD so I can offer the best education to my students and help them become successful and feel confident with their new skills.
I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I started tutoring in 1995. At the present time I am working as a Special Ed. Reading Tutor for the East Hartford School system. I started out tutoring middle school and high school students in basic math, reading, english, and social studies.
I love teaching using examples all around, as well as, painting a word picture which students understand. It is very important for me to know my audience. This helps me in how I should present the information.

More About This Tutor...

I began tutoring as an undergrad student working for the college's academic support office tutoring math and science courses. After graduating cum laude with a BA in Mathematics, BS in Meteorology, Physics minor, and Secondary Education certification, I went straight into teaching. For the next 8 years I was a jr high and high school math and science teacher. I taught Physics, earth Science, Physical Science, General Science, and math classes ranging from 7th grade basic math up through trigonometry. Last year I returned to school to earn a masters degree in Applied Statistics from Cornell University. During that year I tutored 4 Cornell students in Statistics, Calculus, and Finite Math, and 3 high school students in Earth Science, Algebra, and Geometry.
It is my belief that most students that seek out the extra help of a tutor have a much greater capacity to learn than they r ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Since young I have always had a passion for learning and my education, and throughout my college years my desire and love for teaching has grown greatly. As a firm believer in the significance of education, I have a strong motivation to be able to help every student I teach grow as a student. To accomplish this I do everything I can to find what works most effectively for each student. My approach to teaching is one in which I believe every student has their own learning style(s), which I first try to identify and then adjust my teaching strategy to meet the individual needs of every student. I always let my students know that I believe in he or she and I constantly encourage as well as rejoice every little struggle he or she overcomes.
As a Trinity College graduate, I had the chance to experience a liberal arts education which gave me the opportunity to learn about and excel in a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal is to help your child achieve success. I explain real-life applications of the subject (i.e., metric system--repair of foreign cars.) I encourage questions and dialogue. I use praise when warranted but am firm on deadlines and honesty. Aware of attention span, I take appropriate breaks or switch to another subject. I remind him to read and follow directions and to check his work over before he hands it in. I believe that in this fast-paced technical age your child needs the best chance possible to compete successfully. I have found that even with one exposure, a good educator can have a huge positive impact upon a student's confidence and comprehension. It is very gratifying to both student and teacher when this occurs.
I have had a successful career as a medical scientist in hospital, government, and reference laboratories in the northeast and southern U.S., holding ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During the past four years of my undergraduate study, I have been given many opportunities to work and explore outside of my degree in piano performance. I was able to take a class about working with exceptional learners. Outside of the classroom, I have had the opportunity to counsel children with special needs during summer programs and a winter ski program. I have also had the opportunity to work as a one-on-one aide for a child in a public school summer program. Recently, I have had the opportunity to tutor a junior high student in both math and English. I have worked with children with a variety of disabilities and needs. Here are some examples: autism (from severe to high functioning), cerebral palsy, down syndrome, ADD/ADHD, hearing impaired, and deaf.
I love working and communicating with children. Every child that I have worked with is very different, and each child presen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

If provided the opportunity to succeed, students will follow.  According to the movies, "If you build it, they will come."  I am a firm believer in modeling.  I lead by example.  I am patient, easily reachable, approachable, and a firm believer in every child's success.  I realize there are many modalities of learning and finding out if a student knows which one(s) he benefits from most would be a constant theme throughout our journey together.  Sharing from mutual experiences and providing new strategies will help your student realize that this task is not as impossible as it once seemed!
I knew that I wanted to share what I was passionate about with others before I completed my undergraduate program in biology with certification cum laude.  Once I earned my bachelors of science degree, I pursued my masters program slowly having the opportunity to incorporate my love for the ocean ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would want each student in my classroom to feel wanted and feel a sense of their identity present even when they leave the classroom. Each student should be given attention. To understand what they feel and how they react to the material being presented to them is very important to me. I would encourage students to learn and let their views be heard. Classroom discussions and debates can be great tools when you want students to become active and to voice out opinions. I would want the classroom to be a medium through which I can motivate students to question one another and help each other to pull through to gain “knowledge”.
As an intern at the University of Bridgeport, I have learned a lot from teaching in the New Britain and Rocky Hill Public Schools. I have earned my Master's Degree in Education and plan on completing my certification in Secondary Biology. I have learned how ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have wanted to be a teacher since I was in elementary school and now that I have graduated I am excited to finally live out my childhood dreams. I am very enthusiastic, patient, and creative. I feel as though all children can learn, it's just a matter of figuring out what learning style best suits them. I truly believe in the use of positive reinforcement whenever possible.
I am a recent graduate of the University of Hartford. I have a dual certification in Special Education and Elementary Education. I have taught in both Urban and Suburban areas in grades K, 1, 2,5,6, and 7. I have also tutored children in grade 4 and peers at the college level. I have tutored all elementary subjects and at the college level I have tutored in English and World History.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated from Saint Joseph College with a BS in biology, which allowed me to build a foundation within life sciences and mathematics. I learned critical skills that allowed me to develop excellent grammatical skills through generating numerous lab reports and research papers. I continued my education by obtaining certification in histological science, which allowed me to have hands on experience. It also landed me an internship at Pfizer. During my high school and college years I tutored many students in the subjects of mathematics, chemistry, and biology.
I love to help people in the best way I can so they can achieve their goals. I was taught by my professors that everyone learns in different ways. The difference in learning styles is where I believe that I can help students excel by providing different ways of learn, understanding, and obtaining educational information.
