A Little Bit About Me...

I worked with a variety of ages from k-12. My most recent experience has been with students in elementary school. I worked for a semester teaching children about sustainable practices and the benefits of buying produce from local farms. While I am most comfortable with high school students, I have great communication skills and can work well with all children.
I am willing to tailor my teaching style to the needs of the individual(s). However, I prefer to add an interactive element to all of my lessons.

Never,never, never, never ever give up.

I have a student-centered teaching style. That means I see at what level the student is and meet him/her at that level. Then we together move up to where he/she needs to be.
I have taught for many years in all levels of secondary school, alternative schools, and tutoring centers.I eat, sleep, and drink tutoring as I tutor every day during the school year and do lots of research to help my kids in whatever academic subject is causing them difficulty. I began my teaching career for the first five years as a high school English teacher and taught regular college prep English courses.The next five years I taught English at the middle school level.Next, I got married and resigned from teaching when our first child was born. For the next twenty!!years, I raised four children and tutored kids sporadically. After all the kids had entered school, I began substituting in our school dis ... read more

It's imperative to listen and understand a students challenges. Reviewing their previous work and giving a current test is a good indicator of the situation. I believe in practice and examples as the clearest path to success. I don't hand deliver answers and I make the process towards answers engaging. I make sure the time and place are conducive to active and non-distractive learning. I relay the importance and relevance of the material. I recap previous lessons and try to integrate them into current assignments. I always value and respect people and expect the same of my students.
I have trained students in a laboratory, restaurant and in the home. I graduated from college with honors and have succeeded in statistics, algebra 2, calculus 1, biology 1, chemistry 1, English literature, professional writing, civics, sketching/painting and classical guitar

I am a highly motivated and organized teacher with a passion for teaching students of all ages. I recently worked as a long term music substitute at Hamburg Area High school in Hamburg, Pa.

Any subject can be difficult to master. Each of us brings something different to learning. A tutor may enjoy spectacular success in the short term by applying behavior management principles. I believe that a student’s long- term interests are best served where trust and pleasure in individual differences are established. The teacher’s challenge, as I understand it, is to weave what fires the imagination of the student into the process. Building a birdhouse may, for example, be the portal to the world of geometry. When subject matter is personally meaningful, it is intrinsically interesting and learning is exciting. The inspired student develops lifelong competence.
I have worked as a helping professional for most of the thirty-plus years since I graduated from Haverford College. A significant portion of my employment experience has involved service to school- ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I tend to employ a quiet but direct approach to learning. Q and A sessions begin each session. We review the homework and past experiences of the student. I encourage students to write down their concerns and mark the areas of confusion at the time these arise. That way the students don't forget to bring them to my attention. I like to break down large projects into smaller components. The success of the student is the primary goal. A feeling of accomplishment is a close second. I back step and reteach as necessary. Praise is given often. I enjoy the teaching experience and interaction with each student.
My background experience includes classroom teaching, tutoring, substitute teaching,ESL,Title I,and GED training. My classroom experiences included Pre-K to College students. It also included training nursing staff. In Pennsylvania, I hold undergrad degrees which focus mainly on m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe subjects need to be looked at in an interesting way and a way that the student can relate to. Everyone learns differently and it just takes finding that one way that each student learns best. I feel that everyone can do well in anything they put their mind to.
I am a graduate of York College of Pennsylvania. I obtained a BS in Chemistry and a minor in Math. I have always had a good understand of the sciences and mathematics. I have learned good written skills due to many research papers and laboratory reports. Throughout college I was a laboratory assistant for a physical chemistry lab and helped prepare the chemicals for the organic chemistry labs.

I have a fairly informal teaching style, and I tend to use a lot of humor. I try to connect the information I am trying to convey to what the student already knows, rather than simply provide facts to be learned by rote and regurgitated on an exam.
After college I worked for three years.During that time I applied and received a scholarship to the Medical College of Pennsylvania, from which I graduated in 1994. I completed an Internal Medicine Residency at MCP in 1997. After residency I worked as an attending physician in Pittsburgh from 1997 to 2000, and in Berlin, Maryland, from 2001 to 2004. In January, 2004, my wife became severely ill, and I decided to take time off to raise my two young daughters. I taught at the Dawn Training Center in Wilmington, DE, from May to October, 2006. I also have extensive experience teaching junior housestaff and Nurse Practitioner trainees.

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate at UConn, I pursued a number of fields from computer science to communications and philosophy, giving me a wide range of experience in a multitude of subject areas. In my senior year, I became a substitute teacher for grades 7-12 in all subjects. I am currently a graduate student in criminal justice, writing papers and doing research almost continuously.
As an active member of Mensa International and someone who's consistently done well in number-related fields, I've come to love teaching what I can understand. I perceive the world in a very unique way and I excel at using my perspective to help my students understand what others typically have difficulty imparting to them. I aim to one day be a professor and I love to inspire learning in and out of the classroom.

Although I had a family and worked full time I decided to go back to school and get my advanced degree from Johns Hopkins University. It was a great school and I felt a wonderful sense of accomplishment by obtaining my degree. While obtaining a BA degree from Johns Hopkins University, I was inducted into the honor society Alpha Sigma Lambda, and president from 2000-2002. During that time I tutored adults with problems in basic math skills, reading and writing. Although I did not obtain a teaching certificate - I began my master's degree in Education from Johns Hopkins University in Adult Learning. I moved out of the area before I could finish the degree. I have learned extensive skills from the graduate courses and also from the student teaching that was required during those years.
I have always enjoyed tutoring students. I would like to be able to give something bac ... read more

My love for learning drives me to do all that I can to make learning fun and motivating for others. I employ Gardner's eight multiple intelligences into my teaching so that material is presented in various ways. This allows students with different learning styles to be reached and to gain knowledge during each lesson. Hands-on learning is a mainstay of my teaching style as most children learn best from concrete learning. My aim is to invoke a love of learning in all the students I work with.
Education is a large part of who I am. I have earned two Bachelor degrees, BS in Human Development and Family Studies as well as a BA in Sociology. I initially worked in the field of social work upon graduation which gave me great insight into family life, sociological influences, and the impact of socio-economic factors on education. I feel I am better prepared to deal with the differen ... read more

I have tutored children ranging in ages from 7 years old to 22 years old, so I have learned that not all learn in the same manner. I believe I am versatile in my teaching methods so as to fit the needs of any student, and if need be, I'll use additional methods that may be useful. I believe all students have the capacity to learn, but it is the job of the teacher to ensure that he/she is learning the best way possible.
I will be graduating from Towson University in May of 2010 with a degree in Secondary Chemistry Education. I am currently completing my student teaching, in which I am in charge of two Chemistry II classes and one upper level organic chemistry class.
