I have a relaxed teaching style that makes my students feel comfortable and interested in learning. I believe I transfer my passion for my subject to my students. I am able to draw on my extensive work and “real-world” experience, which students seem to appreciate. I have an informal manner, yet I expect much of my students. I expect them to do the work required and to have good attendance at the teaching sessions. I teach best through “hands-on” methods, allowing students to learn by doing. I have worked most of my adult life in education or journalism, and I was able to combine my two passions as a journalism professor at the college level for several years. I am currently a visiting lecturer in media studies at Bridgewater State College and a substitute teacher in local schools. I have taught social studies, business and typing in secondary schools. I also have taught in other venues

I have 9 years of experience in teaching chemistry and physics at the high school level. Additionally, extensive experience teaching/tutoring a myriad of other subjects, such as, earth science, algebra, trigonometry, biology, CPR/first aid, GED prep and various adult education classes. I also have 15 years of practical laboratory experience as a laboratory chemist with increasing levels of responsibility. To teach is to "impart knowledge or skill to somebody by instruction or example" while education is defined as "to develop mentally, morally, or aesthetically especially by instruction". I aspire to be an educator, as defined above. While I believe in the content of the sciences, I am interested in evoking the thought process to utilize the scientific method as a problem solving technique applicable to all areas of life. Through life, didactic specifics of chemistry may wane, but t

I have tutored students privately in subjects ranging from languages to math since 2001. One student has continued French lessons four hours a week every summer for five years. I completed a one-year French as a foreign language course in Martinique. I have taught several French for Beginners adult classes. I substitute teach at the local schools, and cover all ages and subjects (some of which I am more qualified for than others, and in the event I am less qualified, I let the students teach me what they know). I have wanted to teach since I was in second grade, and am currently working toward my license in Massachusetts. I believe that knowledge is an intimate thing, and that learning should be fun, and confidence-building. I use eliciting techniques, bringing student knowledge to the table first, and then build upon it. Knowing a student is important for preparing relevant materials fo

My teaching philosophy and primary goal is to first understand and appreciate each child for their unique abilities, strengths and weaknesses, then to channel those abilities toward a better appreciation of the practical value of science and math knowledge. Learning comes easiest when students find benefits to knowledge. Each assignment represents a short term goals, building a student’s confidence with each successful completion. I find by encouraging students to avoid distractions, focus and manage their time effectively, it is much easier to make significant progress on difficult teaching concepts and retain knowledge . I can offer a student a broad educational perspective with a Ph.D. in the medical sciences and 18 years experience in the Biotech industry. My teaching experience began on the faculty at the UMass Medical School (1993-1999), where I tutored high school, undergradu

Being a disciple of the late French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau, all the focus ought to be on the learner. No Atlas complex; the tutor, instructor, teacher must serve as a tool for the learner to reach it ultimate goal: blossom as a knowledge seeker; therefore, flexibility, openess, willingness to try anything, everything to get the learner attention, focus, and pleasure to learn. NO CONSTRAINT IN LEARNING! As an ABD in French( I am writing now my dissertation), I can say with the utmost confidence that French Language has no secret for me.

I love helping students achieve educational goals. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and the right to be a successful student. Not everyone processes things the same way, I like to use my students' individual learning styles to dictate how I teach. The goal of tutoring is to assist the individual and therefore I adapt my style to suit the specific needs of each student. As a graduate of one of the premier Universities in the United States I have had an opportunity to learn from the very best higher education has to offer. Over the past several years, I have reinforced my editorial skills as a college and graduate school admissions coach, helping students prepare for standardized tests, write and edit essays for University applications and prepare for interviews.

My philosophy will always be re-evaluated and revised as I acquire new skills in the field of education. My primary role as an educator is to foster student development and individual growth. I want students to leave my classroom self-directed and well prepared for further studies. As an educator, I will teach and develop a solid foundation for life-long learning. I have a strong desire to be a factor in student achievement and find great fulfillment interacting with learners, encouraging their educational development, and guiding them to realize their fullest potential.
