Poetry Tutoring

Early attempts to define poetry, such as Aristotle's Poetics, focused on the uses of speech in rhetoric, drama, song, and comedy. Later attempts concentrated on features such as repetition, verse form and rhyme. Looking for help? Select a tutor today.

Amy S. - Wappingers Falls, NY 12590 (35.5 mi) - $50/hr.

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences. I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency. Working with young adolescents and adults proved to be just as ... read more

As a student of history in both undergraduate and graduate school I have been trained to read actively, think critically, and write creatively. I also have experience working as a Youth Advocate and Direct Service Professional. Additionally, I volunteered my time as a teaching assistant for two college level courses, Civilizations and Cultures of Southern Africa and African American Culture. In the past I have engaged students with music, film clips and leading questions to put a new perspective on required reading.

I am NYS certified in Literacy (grades 5-12) and English (grades 7-12), although I have several years of experience with children as young as Kindergarten. As an educator, I view myself not as a provider of knowledge, but rather as a facilitator. I aim to encourage the critical thinking that will serve students not only in the classroom, but throughout their lives. In my experience, I have become well-versed in student-centered curriculum development programs, including Understanding by Design, which I have employed extensively in my own lesson planning with gratifying results. I have also been trained in, and have been implementing, the new Common Core Standards for over a year. My student teaching and observations in New York City public schools as well as my current tenured position in an inner city school district have provided me with valuable exposure to diverse classroom atmos

Mentoring style of teaching. Teaching Philosophy One’s teaching philosophy is continually evolving over time. Evolution occurs because teaching is an ongoing process. This process has brought me to develop my own personal teaching philosophy. The philosophy I have created is one that is student centered. My classrooms have become student centered. I have decided to acquaint myself with the needs and expectations of my students. The classroom culture I desire is one where my students may know they are safe and secure to learn. They need to know they are allowed to fail because one truly learns from one’s failures. Failure should not have negative connotations but to know failing only points out what we need to learn and also know what are successes are as well. In order for this to be accomplished in the classroom, I have developed, for the time being, a teaching strategy. The strategy

Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students. I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.

Many years of experience teaching, working, and tutoring children of all ages. Every child learns in a different way. I want to be able to find the best way and help children have fun while learning. It is important to establish what learning method works best for a child before teaching can take place. A child will be successful if they are having fun and learning in a style that they feel comfortable with. Hands on learning, use of technology, books, group learning, creative role play of different ways to solve problems.

I have experience in tutoring elementary and middle school students. I found it to be very enjoyable and they did too! I do my very best to make sure your child has a good time while learning. It seems that when they are enjoying themselves they are more likely to remember what was taught. My methods of tutoring will depend on what learning style your child is most comfortable with. It is of great importance that your child builds confidence and the skills needed to move forward. I will make sure your child does not feel overwhelmed or stressed out with what I teach. By the way I teach, your child wont even realize they are being tutored! I ensure your child will improve in the subjects I tutor and have a blast while doing so! I look forward to hearing from you.

As a "late in life" graduate of Fordham University, I received permanent Teaching Certification and continued to teach in a public school district for 5 years. I was then offered an amazing opportunity to bring a non-profit pre-school and daycare back to fruition which I accomplished in under a year. Having left the pre-school after an ownership change, I have found myself desiring to go back to my real passion - teaching. I also have over 20 years of Business and marketing experience working as a Communications and marketing Director in Mid-town Manhattan. I am an energetic, enthusiastic teacher who loves to teach children and adults of all ages. I enjoy challenging my students with fun projects and activities that get creative juices flowing and make learning fun!

I have recently graduated from Purchase College with an Undergraduate degree in Music with a minor in English. During School I tutored students in English composition and edited students essays and papers during the entirety of my undergraduate education. I have also taught voice and music theory to students privately. In High-school I scored a 97 percent out of 100 on the English regents exam. I recently received a full scholarship to complete my masters at the University of Maryland. I will fit my teaching to the client. If a student learns with visuals, I will use visuals. If a student is an aural learner, I will cater to that side. I am very flexible and take direction very well. I have taken a year or more of each language I am qualified to tutor. The languages are Italian, French, German, Spanish and Latin. I also lived in Italy for a couple of months, in the Northern reg

I believe as an educator you have to understand the topic you are teaching and the students your are teaching. As a teacher you are dealing with various levels of learning as well different personalities. I believe you have to be open to what works for the individual and the classroom. Many young students do not understand why they must learn and why it is important. We as educators must show students how education applies to all life, especially theirs. Passion and drive can be all the difference for a childs success. Therefore inspiration is vital and we must provide it to the best of our abilities. Working with students and education has been a part of my life for about 11 years. I first began doing so in high school, around 1999 working as a volunteer with the YMCA. Eventually I became a counselor and would work my way up to Camp Director. I am proud to say that I am the fir

I have worked with students of many ages having a wide range of interests, strengths, and needs and I would like to continue providing encouragement and assistance to others on an individual basis. I have always enjoyed writing and sharing ideas and strategies with students. Throughout my years of classroom teaching, natural history, biographical studies, arts, crafts, and literature have provided content for lessons and have helped many students begin and complete their writing projects. Much of my focus has been to help others find a connection to subject matter and make learning authentic, useful, and meaningful. I am patient and enjoy using a wide variety of materials and methods as I work. I believe in learning along with my students, finding ways to create interesting and memorable lessons, tackling the rough spots together, building confidence and skills steadily and surely.

I have several years experience working with children and adults in the education field. The students I have taught at the college level ranged from late teens to early 30s. As I have worked with such a wide range of ages I am familiar with the needs of students in each age group I have taught. I work with the student to understand the areas in which they are not as strong or confident and work with them to develop a method of studying and learning that works best for them. I believe that one of the most beneficial methods of learning material is to relate the material to something the student may be more familiar with or something with which they can relate. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the State University of New York at SUNY New Paltz and I have matriculated into the Master of Arts in Biology program at the same university.

I have enjoyed the written word my entire life. I have written poetry, screenplays, short stories, advertising copy, grants, business plans, marketing plans, newsletters and press releases. My understanding of grammar and syntax is second nature to me. I have tutored children in English (reading and writing) for more than 15 years. I love children for their unabashed honesty. I treat them with respect and do my utmost to listen deeply to their needs. I'm a very patient, detail-oriented person and frequently use humor to create an environment that the child finds is fun in which to learn and one where both mentor and child have mutual respect. A willingness/openness to learn the challenging subjects is key on the child's part. It is a joy to help a child learn and watch them grow more confident in the process.
