My comments on tutoring Literature : AP English Literature in high school; current college GPA 4.0

I try to customize my sessions per my clients' needs. Everyone has their own unique learning style, and there are challenges and strengths, alike, that materialize from those styles.
Hello! I earned my Bachelor of Arts in psychology (3.5 GPA) in 2012 and have been tutoring English; ESL; reading; writing; and more for 8 years. I began as a volunteer through my university's writing lab, per recommendation by a cherished professor. I have worked with children and adults from a variety of cultures (South Korean; Venezuelan; Mexican; Turkish), and I have enjoyed playing the role of "student" in my own regard. I love to learn about other traditions and practices. One of the most rewarding experiences for me as a tutor was when I worked with a South Korean family for 1 year. While teaching two school age boys, I was privileged to be introduced to a bevy of Asian foods; practices; and even ... read more

Recently Retired Teacher with 31 Years of Experience

My passion is to teach, although retired, I will, always be a teacher, and that is why I want to teach. Due to the experiences I have had, I have become very proficient in my field. I will tutor or teach, by developing an individual learning plan, which begins with informal assessment, establishing, tangible learning goals, and targets implementation, and then, concludes with a final assessment to make sure benchmarks were reached. The parent and students will be assisting the tutor with designing and implementing the course of action to be taken. My philosophy is that success is based on hard work and commitment. I will help your child with homework and projects, and will give some informal practice on various skills to complete in between sessions. Regular study sessions are important to obtain success. Parent will receive, either, a verbal or written report at the end of each session, ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching children and adults is my life's work. I believe not only can all children learn but I believe all children can excel, if given the motivation and inspiration. I also believe that if children learn to love learning, they will excel in all that they strive to achieve. I believe in making learning relevant and interesting. I am adaptable in my style and approach in education. Due to the fact that our children are all unique, I believe their educators should develop, within their own styles, an approach that is unique for each of their students. I hold high expectations for each of my students but all of my expectations are attainable for the student and I help them to achieve those expectations in excellence.
I have always worked well with children because I enjoy their capacity to learn. I am drawn to students who feel they are incapable of excelling in subject areas ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always loved teaching. I enjoy seeing the sparkle that comes to a child's eye when he grasps a new concept. All children learn in various ways and I am willing to find your child's leaning style and work with him that way. I have always been patient, loving, and very interested in every child's learning potential. A positive attitude needs presented to every child. They are all very capable of learning, but in their own way.
I have a bachelor's degree with many hour of class beyond. Providing quality, broad-based academic direction and leadership remains one of the core values for success in educational institutions today. In my instructional career, I have demonstrated the ability to develop curricula for language arts courses and influence student improvement through quality technology, media, lectures, discussions, assignments, assessments, and one on one tutoring. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having obtained a Communications degree from college, I was quite driven to help students who faced challenges in the areas of reading/writing. Further, I had extensive experience in Title I and Reading Labs, even on the college campus where I studied. Later, I earned my Master's degree and did research to assist me in understanding the pervasive issue of a higher incidence of language difficulties faced by these students versus that realized in Math. During the past years, I have taught high school and college English courses to students who have been identified as needing assistance in Reading and writing. I have also assisted students with other subjects, such as Algebra I, II, Problems of Democracy, high school science, etc.
I enjoy teaching and working with a variety of students. I do hold firmly that all young people can learn, just via different modalities. I thrill when ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy helping others learn. It is a compliment when someone asks for your help. After tutoring and substitute teaching for about 2 years, I have learned that students comprehend material in many different ways. I am able to sit down with each student and ask them how THEY comprehend the material. I then make it to where they are the tutor and teaching me how to learn, however I do teach them the material. In order for them to become successful I have to be willing to listen and be passionate about helping them succeed in their area of weakness.
I have earned my B.S. in Business Administration, studying many different courses. During my undergrad years, I was able to tutor graduate and undergraduate in their areas of weakness. These subjects included Financial Accounting, Micro and Macroeconomics, Literature, and many more. I have been able to teach them but also learn from them. ... read more
