More About This Tutor...

I earned a BS in Elementary Education and a MA in TESOL. I have taught grades K-1 as well as taught at the college level in ESL. I have also tutored many students in ESL. Through these experiences, I have gained an understanding of the different ways in which students learn.
I love working with children as well as adults. I enjoy the happiness on a students' face when he/she "gets it". I believe in teaching with plenty of hands-on resources such as realia, pictures, props. I believe in making learning enjoyable rather than use drills and memorization. I want my students to take their time in learning and developing to their full potential. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.

I enjoy teaching anyone regardless of his or her age and level of education. Patience and creative presentation are qualities that help me observe a student’s approach to learning and give them an understanding of how to complete a task. I have found that often students’ difficulties are overcome by working through the problems together, explaining ideas in multiple ways until the student is confident in his or her understanding of the idea. However, I strongly believe that each student must be able to complete his or her own work. Thus, I make sure they can duplicate the work on their own. I have experience in public presentation, but I prefer to work with students in smaller groups so that I can give them individualized help.
I have experience tutoring both young children and young adults in private and public settings. I spent a school year teaching two students in grades 2 ... read more

In 2004 I graduated from Smith College with a double major in American Studies and Art History. While Smith is founded in the liberal arts, I chose to take courses across all disciplines in order to receive Latin Honors. Additionally I have a MA in Media Studies from the New School University. I have a background in tutoring across disciplines and have many strengths and particularly in writing and editing due to my work experience in publishing this past year. Now that I am going back to school to study law in the fall I want to start tutoring part-time again.
I have years of experience working with children in both an academic and an athletic setting. In addition to educational tutoring I have worked as a figuring skating coach/instructor, which helped me develop the tools necessary to work one on one and with groups. I have a fresh and innovative approach to learning that helps ... read more

I love talking to students. I endeavor to let each student know that I care and am willing to go the extra mile to help he, or she, "get it"! I want to "connect". I have a terrific sense of humor, and try to keep my students smiling. I think we learn more, through laughter. I try to keep everyone relaxed. I try to keep everything real. (I've realized that we learn, more easily, when we can apply what we are learning, to our every day lives.) I encourage questions. I want my students to realize that when they are with me, in the classroom, they are safe, i.e., it is OKAY to make mistakes! It's encouraged! How can we learn, if we don't "open up"? I won't give up -- on any student.
I have been writing for 30 years; I have been published over 200 times, in approximately 106 periodicals. In 2008, samples of my earliest writings, as well as recent-front page articles, fro ... read more

After several years of coaching and working with children I have learned that my true life calling is to teach children and young adults. I am easy going and friendly and have learned how to quickly build rapport with students. I believe that I can make a difference in children's lives, especially when it comes to education.
After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Geneva College, I spent time developing my skills with working with children and young adults as a soccer coach.

I am used to work with all kind of students from children to mature adults. I am also used to teaching all levels of Spanish. There are different ways to learn a language, and as a second-language English speaker myself, I have gone through the language acquisition process. Therefore, I fully understand the position of the student who is learning a second language, and I have developed many ways to help struggling students to facilitate their understanding of a foreign language. I am a strong believer that learning another language should be fun and an enjoyable experience.
I am interested in pursuing a challenging position in the education field with a focus on Spanish instruction or tutoring, with the purpose of helping students to successfully acquire a new language. I worked for one year at Delaware County Community College where I was in charge of tutoring all level ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. As an undergraduate, I participated in a Writing Fellowship, which allowed me to meet with students to work on their writing. Through this individualized tutoring style, I developed an appreciation for working one-on-one with students and peers, and began to develop a highly personal, creative style of tutoring. Over the course of my teaching experience, I have found that students learn best when they are comfortable yet appropriately challenged. It is my goal to distinguish the learning style of each individual student that I work with and from there, develop a plan to meet their goals.
I am currently back in the Reading area after completing two years with Teach For America on Chicago's Southside. While there, I taught 9th Grade English/Test Prep and 6th Grade writing, which I loved! Two years ago, I graduated from Barnar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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

In my opinion teaching presents one of the most varied set of challenges as a career. This is because we are dealing with very sensitive factors to juggle with, such as personalities, family environments, economic backgrounds, individual skills and abilities, and many social, psychological, and cognitive considerations that may come together and create complex interactions. Trying to balance all those individual factors in order to achieve an academically nurturing environment where students can acquire knowledge and skills in a constructive manner is what drives my teaching style.

I love tutoring because it allows me to work one-on-one with students, identifying their strengths and weaknesses and targeting their needs. As a writing tutor, I work to improve the student's overall quality of work, not just the specific assignment. I go over each step of the writing process and help students to spot their own mistakes so that they can make improvements in the future. Since my background is diverse, I relate well to students from all disciplines, and I don't believe that you must be a "humanities person" to write exceptional essays!
I developed my passion for tutoring at Drew University, where I was the first freshman ever hired in the campus Writing Center. I have a combined nine years of tutoring experience at universities, commercial tutoring centers, and schools, and I've worked with all types of manuscripts, from college essays and dissertations to creative ... read more
