My comments on tutoring Testing Skills : See test preparation.

Prefer to facilitate learning and provide more hands on activities. Try to connect reading with writing as the two subjects are very much intertwined in the skills they take. Great at teaching across the curriculum to help students in subject areas that require reading of nonfiction
Taught Grades 3-6 over a 35 year career successfuly with great feedback from students, parents, and administration. Love teaching all subject areas at the elementary school level. Education: BS.ED in English and minor in education; At least 60 hours beyond my Masters in School Administration in various subject areas: Reading, Writing, Math, Animal science.

A Little Bit About Me...

Every student is different, therefore every student has different needs. Every student also can learn differently, whether it be by incorporating more or less visual learning strategies, auditory learning strategies, or using more of the "hands on" approach. Learning can be and should be fun! I love teaching a student to success and when they enjoy what they are doing they are much more likely to succeed!
As an active member of my community, in the form of pageantry, volunteering, and leadership, I have always enjoyed instructing others. Currently, I love my job at Midwest Generation as an Instructional Designer of Training. I get to train Engineers and Office Managers on subjects I knew little about, and have grown in responsibility and development. I love kids, since my summer camp instruction job I held all throughout High School as well as an active instructor at my church. I j ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching for 25 years. I began as a high-school teacher, taught grade school and special education, and then spent 20 years as a university professor of English and philosophy. I started tutoring as a graduate student and have been doing it on and off now for 20 years.
I like working with grade-school students, but I like best a variety of teaching situations. That for me truly represents the challange of teaching. Only a diversity of students can bring learning to itself, reveal the demands of cognition for what they are. As a philosophy PhD this interests me very much.

As a University of Notre Dame graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Economics and BS in Mathematics, and a master's degree, MA in Secondary Education. All three degrees have enabled me to effectively teach high school for fifteen years at three outstanding high schools: Saint Ignatius College Prep (Chicago, IL - 6 years,) Cardinal Gibbons (Raleigh, NC - 7 years,) and Brother Rice (Chicago, IL - 2 years.) I have also tutored students in mathematics and SAT/ACT prep.
I love teaching and tutoring and have grown in this love over my fifteen years as a professional educator. My goal is to support, guide, and inspire your child such that she/he will achieve academic success now and in the future.

I believe a great teacher needs to have proper skills and talents for teaching. I learned a lot while growing up from a great teacher; my mother. My mother was a teacher for thirty years teaching elementary grades. I learned a great teacher needs to be respectful, patient and to be able to illustrate the lesson in an easy, simple way. I try to provide simple analogies for each concept. This enables the student to grasp the concept easier and faster. In addition I help my students to learn better by asking few questions about the concept. This will help them to truly understand the lesson by using their analytical thinking.
I have been fascinated with tutoring for the past three years ago. I began tutoring one of the professors at the University of IL at Chicago in a foreign language. Since then, I have been tutoring various age groups from eight years old to fifty four years old. I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

"What greater gift can a teacher give a student, than to lead them to the threshold of their own minds" [written by Gina Tejcek]. In the end, the student, must be able to think for themselves, in solving equations, writing papers, and preparing presentations. At some point, I want my student to be completely confident in their own abilities & totally self-sufficient in their thinking.
I am a graduate of the prestigious Catholic University Loyola, as well as a long-term employee, having worked with a tenured Physics Professor for over ten years, I understand the excellence and importance of education. While it is the student's responsibility to learn, it is the quality of the teacher's teaching ability that will allow students' to develop their own minds' and thinking processes.
