Math and Microsoft Office Tutoring for Adult Learners

My style is based on incorporating everyday experiences to make the lessons come to life in the mind of the student. As adult learners, in particular, we look to our life experiences to inform our learning. I work with individuals and small groups to help them to achieve understanding.
I look forward to using my experience working with adults (college students, new employees, clients, professionals) to help each student to progress academically. As a professional facilitator, I am skilled at bringing students to an understanding of the material. Training new employees has provided me with the skills to help adults get oriented to new material and information.

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 like to incorporate a sense of humor in my teaching - I believe when children can relax they are much more open to learning. I am also sensitive to children's different learning styles whether they are visual, auditory or kinesthetic, and tailor my approach accordingly. No two sessions are ever the same! Each student has unique needs and challenges and my job is to work "through the maze" and carry the message to the brain. I try to use practical and relevant examples whenever I can and appeal to the student's personal frame of reference so the goal of really "learning" versus "memorizing" can be met.
I have been a substitute teacher for the past two years covering all grade levels from pre-k three up to senior year in high school. I am a Master's Degree candidate in Elementary Education at Wilmington University. I enjoy students at every level and am amazed at what a difference ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 2004 I graduated from Smith College with a double major in American Studies and Art History. While Smith is founded in the liberal arts, I chose to take courses across all disciplines in order to receive Latin Honors. Additionally I have a MA in Media Studies from the New School University. I have a background in tutoring across disciplines and have many strengths and particularly in writing and editing due to my work experience in publishing this past year. Now that I am going back to school to study law in the fall I want to start tutoring part-time again.
I have years of experience working with children in both an academic and an athletic setting. In addition to educational tutoring I have worked as a figuring skating coach/instructor, which helped me develop the tools necessary to work one on one and with groups. I have a fresh and innovative approach to learning that helps ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I received a BS in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of Arizona with an interdisciplinary minor in chemistry, physics, and mathematics. My experience after graduating from college is diverse having pursued careers in the military, science, and education. After an honorable medical discharge from the Marines, I worked for several scientific private and academic research laboratories gaining invaluable hands-on experience. My first teaching assignment was at Excel High School where I taught Algebra II honors and Pre-calculus. In addition to teaching at Excel, I volunteered with Prevention Now and City on a Hill’s AIM high program where I prepared E.L.L. students for the Massachusetts equivalent of the DSTP in both math and English. In the past year, I have substituted for Red Clay School District while preparing for Delaware certification. Through all of these experi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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

More About This Tutor...

I am keenly aware of how busy most students are, so my aim is for tutoring to feel like something they get to do and not something they have to do. Teaching revitalizes my own love for learning, a love I hope to impart in a gentle, patient manner. I believe in honoring the variance in learning styles, and I empower my students to engage with material in ways that feel natural to them.
I have implemented individualized reading and writing programs for students ranging from pre-K to adult; gave one-on-one attention to special needs students in phonics, context-based reading, and fact retention; cultivated students’ understanding of grammar/punctuation, sentence/paragraph construction, and general cohesiveness in creative and academic writing; worked one-on-one with high school students on SAT critical reading and writing sections, devoting extra attention to vocabulary expansion.

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a strong passion for teaching and working with children, youth, and adults. I believe that expressing patience, compassion, and respect for the student are all critically important as they overcome learning challenges and digest new information. I work with the philosophy that everyone possesses amazing potential and talent and I strive to meet the student at his or her level and move through lessons at a pace that is comfortable to him or her. As a student’s interests are revealed to me through the tutoring process, I try to incorporate those interests into our lessons to make the learning experience more dynamic and enjoyable. Having worked in very diverse environments, I am experienced at adapting to the learning needs of each student and developing personalized learning strategies for each individual. As the student improves, I give ample encouragement and celebrate in hi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to figure out whether a student learns best by words, diagrams and pictures, or analogy. I enjoy finding ways to simplify things and help someone else learn. In addition to all the teaching I've done at the graduate level, I've also helped my two children with homework when needed for the past 20 years.
I have been teaching and doing research in chemistry, biology, and genetics for many years. I am an avid tutor and teacher for all sciences. As with all laboratory sciences I have written many research papers; therefore, I am confident I can also assist students with writing papers and essays.

More About This Tutor...

I believe teaching should be an evolving, natural thing that constantly takes into account all the strengths and weaknesses presented, so that the student can learn the best way for him or her. It helps to get to know each student a bit so that the style needed is discovered and as many barriers as possible are brought down. I also try to keep engagement up by bringing in tangents of interest that the student can relate to in order to make it more understandable and applicable to his or her's life. Education should be a dynamic, stimulating experience for everyone.
My experience comes from a variety of places which accounts for my adaptability. I obtained an associates degree in Business Administration and went on to use that to get some experience in the business sector. I earned my Bachelors degree in Studio Arts and went on to get my Masters in Elementary Education. Since then ... read more

Since my childhood I was always interested in education and academics. This definitely reflects in my degrees since a female entering an engineering school was very uncommon in those days and especially in India. After getting my B.S. I knew I wanted to teach; hence I pursued my masters in Mechanical Engineering. I have been teaching and tutoring for many years but for 15+ in Maryland. I have very good communication skill. I have tutored students in various subject area - starting from middle school Math and Science - to undergraduate courses in Math, Physics and some Chemistry. I also have helped many students prepare for public exams such as SAT, ACT, GRE, and GMAT.
I enjoy teaching and tutoring both. I have a very flexible style of tutoring and hence can adjust to student's learning style very comfortably. Since I have experience in broad subject areas, I can help students refre ... read more

I have tutored students since I was in high school at Baltimore Polytechnic Institute. I was in the honor club and one of the obligations of honor club membership is to tutor Poly students. In 2003 I attended Morgan State University and earned a BS in Biology. This degree has enabled me to gain a good understanding of math and science. I also gained many skills in writing and reading from writing research papers in my field. I also worked for a biotech (ABN) company as well as in the university lab to gain even more experience in science.
My teaching style is basically a belief that every student has the ability to be a great learner. My goal is to help them harness that ability. With my guidance they will be able to focus and achieve great success in education. With my patience and down to earth attitude students feel comfortable learning from me.

I love to watch a child use their imagination and understand new information. The "a-ha" experience is wonderful to watch unfurl. I believe that all children should be able to learn in some way and it is up to the teacher to figure out which way is most appropriate for each student.
I have taught in urban and rural settings in Baltimore City and in the County. I hold two masters degrees, one in teaching and one in counseling, which combined have aided in my teaching experiences. I have tutored off and on for different companies.
