Today is a great day to learn something new!

I foster development of the whole student by encouraging critical thinking. My methods are adjusted to meet the students needs with an individualized approach. My goal is to promote self learning and help students develop necessary critical thinking skills.
I am a full-time high school teacher with over 12 years of experience in education. I specialize in Science, but have experience teaching and tutoring most levels and subjects. Throughout my 12 years in public education I have developed many skills to accommodate various student needs. I have a love for learning and inspiring my students to be life-long learners by making content meaningful. Teaching and learning is successful when students not only "know content" but are able to create connections and demonstrate real-world applications.

Life Science is one of my top subjects! Includes various disciplines: invertebrate zoology, taxonomy, organismal biology, evolution, biodiversity, biogeography. Also museum curation and collections management.

Emphasize understanding of concepts rather than test taking skills.
I have work experience as a wildlife biologist and ecologist specializing in rare and endangered species research and conservation. I also have expertise in natural history collections curation and management having worked at three natural history museums over the course of my career. I am comfortable teaching in a traditional classroom, home, or in the field in an outdoor setting.

As an undergrad I took a wide array of classes. THis includes political science classes, biology classes, music classes, history classes and photography classes. As a teacher I have been subbing in the Warwick system teaching biology, history, english, and special education classes. I have worked one on one and in large classes. My study habits are very good and I teach my students how to study. I particularly enjoy one on one teaching. I have taught english, biology, history and music one on one.
I find working with students to learn thrilling. In order for students to be life long learners they need to learn how to teach themselves. I help the student stay motivated and positive about the learning experience and the subjects they are studying. My students learn confidence in themselves and there learning style. Each student has a different learning style with positives and weakne ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated with a BA from Rhode Island College in 2005, and went back to work on a MA the following fall. I am currently finishing up my degree and should be finished with my MA this spring. During my graduate career I had an assistantship where I helped set up classroom laboratories, aided in teaching then and also tutored students in Biology. I consider it to be a rewarding experience, not only because I helped students learn but it also helped refresh and learn new information.
I enjoy helping other people learn, and I get a sense of satisfaction when they grasp new information. I have tutored students needing help with homework assignments or studying for an exam. I requested that they bring their notes and textbook so that I use them as a reference when teaching. I can either answer specific questions or walk through the material. I ask the student questions about the materia ... read more

I am a firm believer in complete individualized, unique attention. It is critical to identify what motivates students and what techniques work best for them, and then work to enhance those skills and apply them to all subjects in order to be successful. By establishing the foundation for each students individual learning success, we can continue to build on those skills and progressively develop new skills and techniques to ensure that the student is confident in each subject he/she needs help with. It is my hope to not only strengthen the students in the subject I am assigned to tutor, but to establish skills that they can use beyond that one subject and into other subjects and in the classroom.
As a college and high school football coach, I learned first-hand how to motivate and teach people the correct techniques for playing and helped them prepare for games. I learned to formul ... read more

As an undergraduate student I double majored in Biology and philosophy. Biology has provided me with a strong understanding in chemistry, biochemistry, ecology, evolution, and physics. Along with that, my philosophy degree has provided me with the ability to clearly communicate my ideas to another person.
I have a lot of patience which allows me to take my time when going over a concept to a student. I never feel the need to rush or come back to a topic later. I will cover it thoroughly.

More About This Tutor...

I truly enjoy teaching. I am very easy going and I can make subjects easy to learn. Since I have an engineering background, I have the tendency to break complex problems into smaller parts. This makes it easier for the student to follow through. All my students in the past have enjoyed learning from me and I am certain that this will not change. I truly believe that anybody can learn math and science; it is a matter of time and perception. In other words, at what angle can the student learn the subject at hand and how quickly can the instructor find the student's vantage point.
While pursuing my Engineering degree at Roger Williams University, I noticed that there were not too many students from low income families attending college. That is why I joined Bridge to Success Program on January 2001. BTS was a program, sponsored by Roger Williams University at the time, which focused i ... read more

As a teacher, I am compassionate and patient. I believe in the importance of setting high standards for each unique student and providing the guidance they need to feel safe, confident and comfortable with themselves and each other. Through this type of environment and through building strong relationships between the learner and teacher, students are better able to realize the limitless possibilities that each possess and set them on the path to future education and success.
As a student teacher in a third grade classroom in West Hartford, CT, I had the opportunity to create and implement active, hands-on lesson plans in all subject areas including thematic, cross-curricular units on Forces and Motion, Native Americans, and Poetry as well as assess, evaluate and monitor student progress. In addition to student teaching, I have done volunteer work in a second grade classroom in H ... read more

As a college graduate, I am looking for a career working with children. I am exploring various opportunities that will provide sufficient experience for me. I have earned a bachelor's degree in elementary education and I currently hold a teacher's certificate in Rhode Island. Growing up in a Portuguese culture, I have the ability to read, write, and speak at a moderate level. This gives me the ability to help Portuguese speaking students that might have trouble with the English language. In the spring of 2010, I had the opportunity to tutor a first grade boy with his reading and spelling skills. Since I have graduated college, I have substituted in various schools.
I love to teach. Giving knowledge to students about things of this world excites me. I enjoy teaching students the skills in how to apply the knowledge they have learned into their lives wisely. To me, that is what educa ... read more

I love teaching and helping students to achieve their education goals. I like to make learning memorable and fun for my students and I encourage critical thinking, analyses, and problem solving over rote memorization. In addition, I recognize Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, and in order to ensure I reach all of the students I teach I use various vehicles of communication whether it be visually, kinesthetically, orally, and so forth.
Having had the opportunity to attend Rhode Island College, I was able to learn the most current and effective tools for classroom teaching. I earned my BS in Elementary Education and have had much experience in the classroom teaching various subjects ranging from Science and Math to Social Studies and Reading.

I discovered the reward of helping others learn as a high school tutor. Later, as an English major, I tutored in our university's Writing Center. After graduation, I was asked to continue as a tutor/writing consultant for eleven more years. Working with all ages, fields of study, and levels of need, I gained valuable experience guiding others through the writing and revision process. I also enjoyed working with those for whom English is a second language. I have been a freelance book editor and writing consultant for the past several years. My skills best serve writing, reading, and language arts, but I am qualified to tutor any subject that requires proficiency in these areas.
My tutoring practice employs the Socratic method to help students help themselves become better writers, self-editors, and critical thinkers. I do not take a red pencil to their work and "fix it" ... read more
