My comments on tutoring Social Studies : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have taught Middle School Social studies and I have helped many students to succeed academically. am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

I love learning to be a student and to teach.

I have taught in both high school the last 7 years and college for 2 years teaching reading and writing. I have taught English in the summers 2007-2010 to International Students. I have taught reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary. I have done prep for the HSPA prior to the test. All the students do three projects and with mp4 movies have been tape recorded and uploaded to my blog. I give them the url http://daylightblogs.org/esltech and mrwhalen and they get to see how they spoke, and conveyed the information. The ESL students are especially adept at art and drawing maps, historical scenes, and 1-2 dimensional projects. I love teaching and use the internet for practicing English and apps that are used on IPAD for writing practice and sending materials to the teacher for comments.
My style is more formal with the beginning students who need a lot of structure and hav ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a teacher for nearly 14 years. I have enjoyed elementary school. The children like the way I teach them all their subjects that are needed. Many times I have taken students who have problems with various subjects and them have elevated themselves for a better understanding of the subject they had trouble with. Tutoring I also do in many subjects. I am called in by different agencies to help students who have difficulty with either a subject or others. GED I also teach and my students seem to do well and pass their test.
