Ashley Frankian- Special Educator, Ell instructor

I am a strategic based teacher that enhances my students learning through finding their own particular learning style. Each student has and individualized learning approach to their studies. Once they find what works for them, they will succeed. It is my job as an educator to help them find that out. I like to use a multi modality approach so that students learn all different types of learning styles, this way they may pick and choose certain styles that work for them. For example, If the students are writing about a short story they have read, to help them get their thoughts on to paper, I would assist them with graphic organizers to prompt them to list of jot down vocabulary words or important people places or things in the story however, in a manner that helps them to do this with a proper beginning, middle and end. All of this is visually designed on the graphic organizer to help the ... read more

Organic Chemistry, Neuroscience, and More!

I graduated from Binghamton University (SUNY) in 2008 with a double degree in Linguistics (B.A.) and Neuroscience (B.S.). After working as a behavioral neuroscience research technician for nearly two years, I pursued a position in 2010 at Cornell University within their Behavioral and Evolutionary Neuroscience program. I am currently a doctoral student in Neuroscience at Tufts University Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences, pursuing my dissertation research in a biochemistry lab studying GABA receptor structure and function. I have been tutoring the sciences since my undergraduate years at Binghamton. I have worked with students in a wide variety of coursework, ranging from linguistics (anthropological and psycholinguistic) to the harder sciences (including biology, chemistry, basic neuroscience, and experimental psychology). My tutoring and teaching experience, however, ha ... read more

I am a trained and experienced Orton Gillingham tutor. I have been tutoring 1:1 since 2002 in the Massachusetts and Nashua, NH area. I also tutor students with Executive Functioning disorder in study and organizational skills. My goal is to help students become self-competent and self-confident. I have been teaching for 30 years and continue to train and work to develop the very best program for each child.
I strongly believe in developing pro-active learning skills by scaffolding the student with individually designed learning strategies and leading them to feel self-confidence to be "in the driver's seat" of their educational process.

When it comes to teaching writing, there are a number of different approaches and techniques, and while each will appeal to different people, all are valid. I believe the most important factors in teaching a student how to write well are practice and praise. I would show, by example in other’s work and especially the student’s own work, what has been done well, and encourage more of it. I’d also encourage the student to explore his or her writing voice and to get comfortable converting thoughts into written words. I am very patient, laid back, and organized, and I believe that everyone has the potential to become a strong, competent, and confident writer. I love teaching because it allows me to share my passion for writing with others.
In Spring 2009, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Duke University and was offered a merit scholarship to the MFA in Creative Writing Program at ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy seeing the "A ha" moment that students get when a concept becomes clear to them. I am not a big fan of memorization and have encouraged students to not only understand the concepts, but to also link the concepts together into a big picture understanding. Also, I believe that with hard work everyone can achieve their goals and that everyone has their own pace and capacity for learning. The trick is to motivate them into thinking that they could always do more, which they usually can.
I am currently a graduate student in Medical Sciences at Boston University. I have taken many biology and chemistry courses during my studies, and I feel comfortable tutoring: molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, general/organic chemistry, and general biology. In addition, I have also taken the entire lower division math sequence for engineers, so I am able to teach elementary math up ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an MIT graduate, I was particularly driven to excel in science and mathematics courses so as to be able to apply these to engineering and technology problems. I subsequently obtained two doctorate degrees: one in medicine and the second in law. I am currently working on the development and patenting of medical devices to improve medical care for patients. I have always loved teaching and tutoring and have done it for many years to supplement my income. My students tell me that I can explain the material in a very understandable way.
I really love teaching and finding different ways of using analogies and similarities to explain difficult concepts. I have been very successful in teaching the sciences and mathematics courses in an understandable way. I believe that everyone is capable of learning the material, it simply needs to be presented in the correct way. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion for knowledge, and have tutored high school and college students in the area of History, reading, and writing composition. I love teaching, and watching the student progress and excel!
My teaching style is more along the lines of the Montessori system. Given the freedom and much direction from the tutor, the student will often "discover" the essence of the lesson. In discovering the essence of the lesson, the student will take ownership. In taking ownership, the student in turn will develop pride, self worth, and a thirst for more knowledge and more successes.

More About This Tutor...

Education has always been a very important part of my life. Upon graduating high school, I went directly to college at Eastern Michigan University. I earned my BS in Psychology in four years, working as an assistant preschool teacher for one and a half years during that time. After graduating, I worked as a special education teacher for four months before taking a job in social services. I have decided to pursue an MS in Psychology and I expect to complete the program in May 2007. I also spent several months in 2005 tutoring students at a learning center in language arts, reading, and math.
I enjoy being a part of any child's learning experience. I understand the individuality of each child and strive to respond to them as such. This means I try to grasp each student's learning style and adjust my teaching approach accordingly. I strive to create a positive learning environment ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
