Knowledgeable and Enthusiastic Tutor in English and Algebra

Hello! My name is Christina, and my chief tutoring interest is in English and related areas such as writing, reading comprehension, grammar and literature. As an English major in college, I found myself frequently editing friends' papers at their bequests. I found the process very satisfying, and I enjoyed being able to assist them in learning new concepts and helping them develop their own writing skills. I also developed a deep interest in literacy during my collegiate studies, and I like the idea of helping students improve their skills through tutoring. In addition to my specialty area in English, I am also very competent at pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. I am experienced with test preparation, having taken numerous AP exams, IB exams, the ACT and both the regular SAT and several SAT subject tests. I have excellent study skills and time management skills, which I th ... read more

Elementary Special Education Teacher

My teaching style is student centered. I try to figure out what work best for each student and go from there. If a student has a learning stye that is very hands on then I will try to make sure a portion of my lesson is tactile. It is not always easy but I strive to differentiate to meet all of my students' learning needs..
I have been teaching students with many different special needs for the past 19 years. My experience ranges from students with severe developmental delays to students with emotional disabilities. My experience has mostly been with students who have learning disabilities. I also have son that has an IEP for learning disabilities and is thriving now in school. I have worked with students ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade.

Summer Tutoring Job

I firmly believe that every child deserves to receive the best education out there. I aspire to share my passion and ambition to learn with my students. Anyone can be a teacher but it takes a person who is nurturing, caring, and devoted to be a good one. Sharing my own experiences with my students will show them we all have hit the bump in the road but we can overcome them. The field of education has provided me with the opportunity to live out my own life-long dream of being a teacher.
I am an alumna of Conestoga High School, Berwyn Pa and currently a Junior at the University of Mississippi. I will be graduating in 2013 with a degree in Special Education and a minor in English.

Experienced, creative teacher who will make learning fun.

I have a very hands on approach because I worked with small children. I believe children learn by doing. If they are interested, you won't have behavior issues.
I spent one year as a day to day substitute teacher working all over York County in various special education classrooms. My second year was spent as a long term substitute at an alternative high school for boys where I taught all subjects. My third year I started teaching Specialized Preschool and did this for many years until I retired last year. My students had many exceptionalities. I had typical students visit my classroom every week to read to my students. I did leave Lincoln Intermediate Unit #12 one year to teach in Baltimore, Maryland. I taught kindergarten-first grade to children with Autism and speech issues. I have 3 grown children of my own who I helped in school.

Seasoned Teacher at Your Service!

As a well-rounded educator, I have had the chance to teach a diverse group of students including those challenged by autism, learning disabilities, noncompliant behavior, and speech impairments, as well as children who functioned on and above grade level. Consequently, I have gained in-depth knowledge of accommodating different styles of learners and incorporating effective methods to meet students’ unique needs. I feel that when we learn and understand the characteristics that make us distinct, then and only then can we truly begin to develop and grow. I encourage student learning by the incorporation of creative learning activities, various forms of technology, hands-on activities, and fun manipulatives. These methods prove to stimulate students’ social, emotional, physical and academic growth. In addition, I utilize these strategies to introduce new concepts, establish a connec ... read more

Well-Rounded and Adaptable Tutor of Many Topics

I tutored peers in high school often as well as my younger cousins, and occasionally kids at a daycare I worked at for a few years. I was able to get into college for free, as my mother is employed by the college that I was enrolled at, and so I stuck around for several years as a full time student simply for the joy of learning. I took courses in every major area, heavily focused on theater, english and science.

More About This Tutor...

I love to teach and believe all children have the potential to learn. I recognize that all learners are different and advocate for using a multidisciplinary approach when teaching. I am also a firm believer in classical education and think that repetition and consistency are key factors in any learning program. My goal in teaching your child is to bring them to a mastery level of understanding on the topic in witch they are studying in order that they will have a firm foundation on which to build.
I have a degree in elementary education with a concentration in special education. I am a homeschool mom with four children and have experience in teaching k-6. I am currently working toward obtaining my PA teacher certification. I am also in the process of applying to be a homeschool evaluator and test administrator. I would be happy to tutor in reading, math, grammar, writing and ... read more

I have taught special education (emotional support) from 1971 intermediate at all levels until retirement in June, 2004. Since then I've taught part-time as special educator and tutor at an alternative school. In all these years I have taught all subjects as needed, and have learned many approaches to a given lesson. My favorite subject is Algebra I, but I am versatile. I have level 1 certificate in Wilson Language Training, and PA reading specialist certification . A sideline is 30 years of income tax preparation with a nationally know company, which had led me to earn the status of Enrolled Agent with the IRS. Another sideline is 30+ years breeding well-pedigreed boxer dogs.
My preferred style is one-on-one tutoring, and the method will vary according to the needs of the student. In using Wilson language training, I follow a fairly controlled lesson plan, updated daily to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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
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 like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typically working with what are known as the "at risk" students. However, I eventually found my way into the classroom as It was noticed that I had a natural ability to balance teaching in the content area and managing behaviors. I loved math all of my life and even found myself tutoring fellow college classmates. I have been teaching math now for 6 years and have been the lead math teacher in every school that I taught for.
My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergraduate at UConn, I pursued a number of fields from computer science to communications and philosophy, giving me a wide range of experience in a multitude of subject areas. In my senior year, I became a substitute teacher for grades 7-12 in all subjects. I am currently a graduate student in criminal justice, writing papers and doing research almost continuously.
As an active member of Mensa International and someone who's consistently done well in number-related fields, I've come to love teaching what I can understand. I perceive the world in a very unique way and I excel at using my perspective to help my students understand what others typically have difficulty imparting to them. I aim to one day be a professor and I love to inspire learning in and out of the classroom.
