At your pace, on your level

I adjust to the student/learner as I am told or discover their learning preferences. However, in my experience and research, I have noticed that active learning and discovery-based learning are arguably most effective mechanisms for knowledge retention. Therefore, I make considerable efforts to implement these styles into my teaching.
I have always been passionate about communications and teaching. I began tutoring mathematics in High School and during my undergraduate schooling I mentored and tutored introductory university level physics, calculus, chemistry, and organic chemistry. I am currently in graduate school at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine studying Molecular Biology and Genomics but remain informally interested in mathematics and physics.

Individualized learning/teaching for optimal comprehension

I take a hands on material approach to learning/teaching. I feel that young students learn best when they can physically learn, such as through blocks/puzzles/interactive learning devices and other similar approaches. I try to let the student use their hands as much as I can to aid in their learning process. For older students such as my high school students or their college counterparts I use more direct audial teaching and visual teaching styles. Every person learns differently, so I cater my teaching style to each individual learner.
I started tutoring in my teens helping young children with Autism Spectrum Disorders develop English and Math skills as well as speech therapy and public speaking. I tutored my fellow students while attending Carroll Community College in English 101 and 102 as well as Creative Writing. I then moved on to being a one on one with high school students ... read more

Equipping, Movtivating & Stimulating Minds!

When teaching, I take the time to learn my students' personalities and strengths. Then, I tailor a strength-based approach to teaching my students new concepts and ideas. I usually incorporate a mixture of traditional and non-traditional teaching techniques in my lesson plans. I provide structured opportunities and supports for my students to apply what they have learned. I also challenge my students to take ownership of their own learning process by incorporating leadership development and civic engagement activities into my lesson plans.
I help others become their best selves. I enjoy teaching and tutoring youth and adults. Over the years, I have had opportunities to not only mentor and tutor youth, but to teach and tutor adults, as well. I have experience teaching and tutoring the following subjects: (1) Language Arts/Reading; (2) Language Arts/Writing; (3) Social Studies; ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught every grade level from Pre-Kindergarten to college in my 30 years in the schools of Connecticut, New York, and Maryland. I was an assistant principal for six years, have taught both academic classroom core subjects and dramatic arts, and have written curriculum for a great variety of settings. I love teaching mathematics and writing, because they are logical and marvelous as life-long tools. I believe the same for reading and literature. My formal training as a stage actor and radio announcer/dj allow me to use my voice as a valuable tool in communicating with students. I love teaching almost as much as I love learning!
Stylistically, I am a showman, a questioner, and possessed of a strong desire to reach every one of my students. I try to connect with each student on a friendly and comfortable level so that confidence-building is easy. It is important for me to find ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I possess a BA degree in Chemistry in addition to minors in Physics and Math. In turn, my education has a provided me an integrated understanding of the physical sciences. During my undergraduate years, I functioned as a chemistry tutor and as a result of my experiences, I have been able to effectively educate these principles to others. I have also volunteered and tutored elementary school-aged children in basic science for six years. As a scientific information researcher, for the past six years, I have enhanced research, writing, and oral communication skills.
I love to learn and the process involved when digesting new information. Also, I love to assist in transforming a difficult concepts to simpliefied terms for better processing. I believe one of the hardest obstacles to learning is doing so in a smokestack. We do not live in isolation and learning shouldn't be conducted in ... read more

My teaching style emphasizes the differences between children, especially with regards to learning styles. Different children comprehend and understand in unique ways - while one may understand best from tactile or visual demonstrations, others learn best simply by hearing. Even within the same student, certain concepts are best understood in atypical ways. I firmly believe that as an educator, my job is to be flexible and creative in devising appropriate teaching methods for each child - what works for one will not always work for another. The most effective teaching comes from understanding this, and tailoring specific approaches to each individual student's needs.
I currently have two degrees: a B.S. in Environmental Science and a B.A. in Global Studies. In pursuing these degrees I have gained knowledge in various fields including biology, math, chemistry, global politics a ... read more

In order to meet my students' needs I invest countless hours researching and creating alternate methods to teach and provide support. I approach teaching diverse learners with an easy going and compassionate attitude. It is a great experience to see my students work hard and achieve their goals. I believe in teaching through discovery (when possible), countless examples and experiences, and hands on activities (when possible).
I previously taught second grade for three years before moving to the Baltimore area. I am certified to teach grades 1 through 8. I have an additional 12 college credits in reading. I have also recently passed the Maryland PRAXIS II test for Middle School Language Arts, indicating I am highly qualified to teach middle school Language Arts.

I would say that my teaching style is very interactive. Anyone can give instructions but I love feedback from a one on one situation as well as a group environment. I base alot of my instruction on analogies; when a person can relate an experience or another word to a term being tought, their understanding is broadened and 99% of the time embedded in the longterm memory. That to me is not only developing the ability to draw on a built up knowledge base, but also broadens ones ability to convey what has been learned.
I have always wanted to teach. When I was a child I would round up the kids in my neighborhood and make them do lessons that I created. I do remember they did not like that. I went to college and earned a BS in Biology always knowing that I would eventually teach the sciences. I was an excellent student and have always found pride in myself on my ability to communi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am energetic and involved. I am a strong believer in the use of visual and other aids. I feel the best teaching can occur when it is interactive. I am highly computer literate, and regularly interject this medium.
My experience is principally in marine research. In such, I have taught at three universities. Most recently I have been giving scheduled seminars for several years. I am semi-retired. My science background is mult-disciplinary. I enjoy most teaching ecology (both marine and terrestrial), geology, biology, physics, and chemistry. I have worked in this field on the west coast for twenty years, and about fifteen on the east coast. My principal fields of work have been geo-physics, and population ecology. Most of my recent work has been in Chesapeake Bay.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe it is important to find every child's unique learning style and use that tho help them reach their potential. I am patient and willing to approach a subject from multiple angles to ensure success. My college was a constructivist school and I have included this style into my teaching. Discovery learning helps a child understand why skills are important. My goal is to help my students reach their full potential.
I hold a bachelor degree in Elementary Education from Towson University where I interned for two years in both urban and suburban settings. During my college years, I was a biology and history tutor. After graduation, I taught mathematics to children at risk of failing. Currently, I teach reduction reading and mathematics in an inclusive setting.

During my undergraduate career, I student taught ninth grade English at Glasgow High School. I taught five 9CP courses and 1 SAT Prep course. So I have experience working with students and I am very skilled in teaching English Language Arts concepts.
I believe that each student brings something different to the classroom. In my classroom, I want to foster the students' ideas and thoughts. I want the students to have a sense of pride in their thoughts. I am aware that students have different learning styles, so I am capable of altering my own style to make sure each student grasps the concepts that I want them to learn.
