My forte is adapting to the individual student. I have an inate ability to deciper the way each student's mind absorbs knowledge and I am flexible enough in my methodology to adjust to the necessary path. Although my approach is always conctructivist, my teaching methods vary from child to child. I was raised in the urban decay of the oldest neighboorhood in the country,yet private-school educated. I feel this blend adds to my overall mentoring ability.
I received my first tutoring credential in the early 1970's specializing in prep-school placement tests, college-board prep etc. While attending Grad-School (Temple University) in the mid-70's; I worked as a substitute teacher in the Arch-Diocese of Phila. on a high-school level, primarily instructing History. At seventeen I completed the Evelyn Wood speed reading course, not that that is directly relevant to my teaching style. Du ... read more

The University of Delaware has integrated me into the education field with a variety of experiences. I will earn my degree in May of 2011, becoming certified in Elementary Teacher Education and Middle School Social Studies. Over the past few years, I have strengthened in my ability to work with students of diverse needs and present effective instruction for the particular learner. This increases the student's motivation and desire to learn. From the opportunity to study abroad in Spain and Italy, I was exposed to different cultures broadening my understanding of human nature. Part of my course work has included developing unit plans, lesson portfolios, assessments and materials for students.
As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught Special Education for 26 years and third grade for 6. I have tutored using the Reading Assist program and various other methods for reading. I also have many techniques for teaching math to young learners. I enjoy working with children one on one or in small groups. I have retired from teaching but would like to continue working with children part-time. I have been substituting the past couple of years since retiring.
I believe each child has their own learning style. Through a variety of approaches and materials each child can find success in reading and math in their elementary school years. I enjoy finding each child's path to success.

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from college, I worked in a Top Secret position in Washington, D.C. I left that position to pursue teaching, and earned a Masters from Boston University. I taught high school classes for several years, and also worked in IT as a trainer and troubleshooter. I was asked to direct a community college basic skills program, and did so for 7 years, rising to a Dean's level. I have more recently taught and consulted for a private primary school. I have recently moved to Delaware after a long time out West.
I like a jump right in style that is forthright and honest. I have a sense of humor, and will use it teaching, but only sparingly. I believe that the student's desire to learn is the biggest factor in his or her mastering information. I have a lot of experience working with students who have had terrible education experiences, who have not had support at home, w ... read more

Presently I am employed as an adjunct instructor at the Atlantic Cape Community College teaching World Religions and Introduction to Philosophy. In addition I serve as a writing tutor.

The most important qualities of outstanding educators are experience, creativity, and patience. Each quality needs to be developed or tested by time in order to increase in its overall effectiveness. Teachers who can consistently employ all three qualities throughout their careers will be successful educators. It will take a lot of effort and hard work as an educator to successfully integrate the qualities of experience, creativity, and patience into their teaching styles. The effort and hard work will result in the development and establishment of those important qualities within teachers. In turn, the qualities will help those outstanding teachers to continue working hard with unquestionable effort.
Through the course load of my college career my studies also incorporated normal life span development, personality development, abnormal development, prevention, group behavior, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate, with degrees in Economics and English, I have experience in mathematics and writing. Communication skills are very important in all fields. The written skills for essays, reports, research papers and letters are critical for any field a student wishes to pursue. I have taught young children to swim and have also worked with handicapped children.
I love working with children. Each child learns in a different way and at a different pace. I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to find the special key for each child to unlock the magic of learning. One good teacher who can relate to your child may change that child's life forever. I have a positive supportive approach to teaching.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a History graduate, I fascinated and intriqued with the how powerful lessons of American History can relate to students of all walks of life. At Delaware State University, I double majored in Animal/Poultry Science as well as History because of the natural science aspects of the curriculum. I am a seasoned researcher, writer, and speaker. Infact, I know 2 other languages; French and Spanish.
I love all sorts of positive ideals of teaching, especially when the teacher gives students the power to teach themselves by relating everyday experiences, such as sights and sounds with different lesson planners. I understand how the human works in a classroom, some students will grasp concepts because of their up bringing and the results of having a balance home. Others will sometimes wander off, mentally because of attention. There are other cases, but I believe every child needs a fair c ... read more

Working with kindergarden through Adulthood, I work with a student to help them get to where they can be their best. Additionally, it is always my mission to teach the student self confidence and basic study skills in order for them to compete with their classmates or to compete with others similarly situated. I work with students one on one or in a small classroom setting. I get the children actively involved in the learning process and I help them to learn how to conquer their study weaknesses.

A Little Bit About Me...

In my experience with teaching, I find that the best way to connect and convey the information is to provide aural, visual and experiential exposure to the material. Everyone does not learn at the same pace or through the same exposure to material. It is also important to be perceptive to the possibility of student frustration as this is almost always a road block that will arise and if not identified can lead to lower absorption of the material or complete lack of understanding and drive altogether.
As a re-founding member and President of the Syracuse University chapter of the National Society of Pershing Rifles (www.pershingriflessociety.org) I was responsible for the planning and instruction of between 12 and 20 students in the areas of Leadership, Project Management, Exhibition Drill and Wilderness Survival.
