A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy getting the student excited about what they are learning by showing them the practical and useful side of what they are being taught. I believe that when learning is fun and students enjoy what they are learning they will do better. I try to use a hands on approach so that the student learns by doing. I provide lots of examples and change my teaching methods according to each students needs. As a tutor at Springfield Technical Community College, students would specifically request my services as they felt my teaching methods were easy to understand.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a 2008 graduation of Westfield State College with a Bachelor of Arts in English Education I have enjoyed being a high school English teacher for two years. My training prior to my career involves experience with English at all four high school levels, drama (both academic and extra curricular,) speech methods and instruction, and urban school environments. Additionally, career opportunities while teaching have allowed me to pursue new and progressive methods of teaching literature and writing.
I have a passion for teaching and working with students, and I am highly energetic and enthusiastic in the classroom. I make it a priority to help students understand that even if a subject isn't enjoyable to them, it is still rewarding to achieve success with it. I make an effort to adapt to each students learning style, whether visual, kinesthetic, auditory, or something different. By re ... read more

I believe I have a natural ability to work with students of all ages. Tutoring and being able to help students understand certain topics is very rewarding for me. I truly enjoy doing helping others. My teaching style is somewhat laid-back, but students know that I expect them to learn to their fullest potential. I believe in using several learning styles in the classroom and being to identify which students require different ways of learning. If something doesn't work in the classroom, I will do what it takes to make each student understand.
I began my tutoring experience in the fall of 2009 with a program called Breakthrough Manchester. It serves underprivileged students in the area who do not have the resources to succeed. They ranged from grade 5 to 8. With Breakthrough I worked one-on-one with students as well as in a classroom setting in which I conducted my own lessons ... read more

As a first year teacher, I am using my creative impulse to establish a relationship with my students. I am fostering a love of learning in my classrooms, as well as a desire to learn more about the world. I am someone who looks at the glass as half full; there is never a problem that cannot be fixed or a creative solution to be discovered. Although I am firm when it comes to my policies in the classroom, I also see myself as a confidant for some students who might not have anyone else in their lives.
During my four years at Roger Williams University, I was involved with a number of activities that helped me in my desire to become an English teacher. Volunteering with the Girl Scouts of Rhode Island as a leader, editing my college newspaper and sitting on a number of committees are just a few of the opportunities I had at my college. Now, as a first year teacher, I am using my ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all children can learn, but each in their own ways. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the child a structured environment where they can find their greatest academic potential and work on what they want to do when they leave school. I am a firm believer in learning through self-discovery and to a lesser degree drills. I am also a firm believer in transition from school to school and from school to career. I believe all children can find their potential if they are given the chances, time and experience they need. A few good teachers can change a child’s life and educational potential. . I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. I enjoy teaching and working with all children (especially the E.D., at- risk and problem students) and available to help your children find academic success.
I have taught a wide variety of subjects ... read more

I love working with middle school children and young adults. I have worked successfully with students from under-served populations as well as international students. One example is my work with an internationally born undergraduate student who I tutored in English literature and writing. Under my guidance she became a top student. She later earned her master's degree and Ph.D. in English. Today she is a senior researcher for the American Institutes for Research. I have a friendly demeanor but I get the job done. I am a former high school and collegiate athlete. I work hard to help others achieve their goals.

A Little Bit About Me...

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel that I excel in putting myself in the student's shoes. By trying to understand their thought process, I can best teach by making sure the student follows the logic of the subject. I have always believed that allowing the student to reach understandings through subtle guidance by the teacher is the best process. This method allows students to retain information better and feel more comfortable with the material.
I have always enjoyed both the humanities and sciences. At Virginia Tech, I majored in Philosophy and Minored in Statistics and Business. Since graduation, I have worked primarily in an engineering setting performing statistical analysis and other tasks typically performed by a test & validation engineer. Next fall I am starting a masters program at Northeastern University for Industrial Engineering. I have substitute taught for the Hopkinton Public School syst ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Massachusetts certified teacher of mathematics for grades 5-12, and have four years combined experience as a teacher and tutor of mathematics and language arts. My experience includes training at the Huntington learning center of Acton Massachusetts, where I became well versed in strategies for improving performance on standardised tests, especially the SAT. I have also taught for two years at Marlborough High School, where I worked in classrooms with students who had various learning disabilities, from ADD to autism.
My teaching style is based first and foremost upon engagement.
