A Little Bit About Me...

I like to put "boring" lessons into games to help children remember and understand what they need to learn or memorize for tests and quizzes.
Provide learning opportunities for students in areas of enhanced educational skills as identified, provide children the opportunity for improvement and advancement. My goals are to improve there understanding in a subject, and remembering certain things for tests and quizzes to get a great grade. My goal is to also have your child have a better understanding and feel confident about the subject they were struggling in before.

Because I have had to meet the needs of so many different students in so many different environments, I am flexible with teaching methods. A lack of resources overseas drove me to be creative and exercise methods of experiential learning: hands-on and engaged learning. I believe in creating a safe and comfortable learning environment for students, with some room for fun. I acknowledge that every student possesses a different learning style and I strive to compliment that, especially while tutoring. I maintain high expectations and expect considerable progress. My hope is that armed with an education, youth will be incorporated into more decision making around the world.
I graduated with honors from a formal university, where I tutored fellow classmates; however, I gained most of my tutoring and teaching experience overseas, in a universal classroom. I have taught youth and a ... read more

I am a doer who has shared his knowledge and experience in a variety of ways. When I worked as a photographer and filmmaker, I taught those subjects at many different institutions, from an after-school program for elementary school kids to NYU Graduate School. For many years now, I have worked as a science writer and editor. I mentor many newly minted Chinese scientists and engineers who work for IBM in Beijing, teaching them both English grammar and the proper form and style for peer-reviewed scientific papers they are writing. I developed and taught courses in Communications and Technical and Professional Writing for Marist College, Poughkeepsie NY.
Some people learn by talking, some tactically by doing, some visually by example. It depends on the student, or I devise a presentation that involves all three ways of presenting the information. I believe that learning and understand ... read more

As a graduate of Bard College, where I earned a degree in English literature, I have acquired an excellent background in the discipline of writing and composition. I have built upon this experience by earning two Master's degrees, one in Special Education and the other in Library Science. I enjoy and excel in the field of research as evidenced by my career choices, for example, Lead Librarian for an IBM Research project and School Media Specialist at two high schools in Fairfield County Connecticut. I have tutored students in English throughout my tenure as a media specialist.
I believe in letting children be themselves, in developing a comfortable rapport with each student so that true learning can take place. I firmly believe in discovery learning and in piquing a child's natural curiosity. My aim is to find the proper teaching approach for each student by analyzing his or he ... read more

I find working with children rewarding. I am patent and understanding and cater to individual learning styles. I use my artistic sense to help students visually understand learning. I believe the key to understanding and learning is to make learning fun and memorable. I'm a strong believer in constructivist learning and believe that children need to explore to learn.
I started out working as a Head Start teacher's assistant and the following year I was promoted to Head Start teacher and manager. I have also worked as a 1:1 instructional assistant with a high needs student. Currently I worked in a behavior school as an instructional assistant, and I have stepped in to plan curriculum and teach all the classes because the teacher has been on paid leave this year. I also have been commuting to college in Castleton State College from Springfield after work to complete my degree in educ ... read more

As A recent graduate from a Liberal Arts School, I found it easy to connect with teaching as my calling. I have always driven for high levels of excellence in and outside the classroom and work force. Having an English and Philosphy background, I find it easy to critically think and annotate extensively works of literature. And from that I find that my skills are up to par due to writing research papers and annotating other people's work. My experiance as a student teacher at a private school in rural VT, allowed me to expand the pupils' minds to outside their comfort zone in order to learn about the world we live and the connection it has to literature.
Teaching is not for everyone, but I knew it was for me when I started student teaching and felt the adrenaline rush of 25 eyes staring up at me for guidance. I feel the need to spread as much knowledge as possible to the up and com ... read more
