A Little Bit About Me...

As a teacher, I bring passion for both creativity-based and logic-based subjects. I don't subscribe to the right-brain/left-brain paradigm. I believe students can be strong in both mathematics and writing, and it is my desire to help students realize this, because so few people do. My basic tutoring practice is to let the student do most of the talking. I believe this keeps the student engaged in the subject and demonstrates whether or not he or she really understands. I believe that language facilitates thought, that being able to explain something in words helps us to understand concepts better. I often have the student teach me back, meaning that I have the student explain a concept in his or her own words. I believe this helps the student solidify his or her understanding and to identify and fill in any gaps in comprehension.
For over three years I worked as a writing t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel I am qualified to be a tutor due to my current and previous teaching experiences in elementary and middle school, as well as, the successful completion of hands-on educational courses in History, Math, Language Arts, and Science from my graduate program. In addition to the course work through my graduate program, I have had several long-term teaching positions in which I gained even more experience in classrooms. Most of my long-term teaching positions allowed me to teach Science, Mathematics, and Language Arts and create numerous hands-on learning experiences. I strongly believe that it is through these hands-on experiences that students are able to grasp specific terminology as well as any other complicated concepts that may be a foundation for learning a given curriculum. In addition to implementing hands-on activities for students, I have completed an Independent Learning ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My skills, which I learned in the Education Bachelor's degree program at the University of Connecticut, emphasize the development of critical thinking and clear expression in student work. My experience includes working with struggling students in every area, from Advanced Placement to non-traditional learners, so I incorporate many different methologies to help students succeed. As an expert in research skills myself, I can also provide research guidance to students. But my most consistent skill is my ability to help every student find their voice and access their ideas.
I have been helping students improve their skills since 1989, and there is nothing that thrills me more than a student's "aha!" moment, when everything they are trying to learn just clicks for them. For the past several years I have taught introductory critical thinking and basic essay-writing; students come to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have over 15 years experience as a classroom teacher in English and a decade of most recent experience as an Orton Gillingham Reading Tutor/Interventionist and general academic tutor (including Writing) from Elementary through Adult. I specialize in helping the struggling reader learn “the code” of English so the barriers to reading can be lifted. I also am experienced in helping struggling readers develop fluency and comprehension skills and strategies. I am a certified Reading Specialist and English Teacher in MA.
My teaching style is both relaxed and focused. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with my students and also am aware that I learn from them. I believe that goals are important in lesson planning and children benefit from structure as long as it isn’t rigid. At times it’s important to respond to the direct concerns and/or questions a student may have even if they are n ... read more

Working with children has always been my passion. I feel as though it is important to engage all different types of learners and to make them feel as if the classroom is a place where everyone is safe and included. I have worked extensively in the past with children that have Autism. I believe that all children, despite any disability, are capable of being successful students as long as they are given the right tools and the support that is necessary.
Coming from a family of teachers, the importance of education has always been stressed to me. The emphasis was placed not only on succeeding academically, but also to gain a true understanding of the subject matter. I hold an Associates of Applied Science in Community Service and Leadership and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I also hold a Bachelors of Science in Family Studies with a concentration on early childhood education and graduate ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am laid-back and easy going with a good sense of humor. I relate very well to children - having tutored and coached youth sports for a long time. I consider myself patient, and reward students for trying. It is satisfying to see pupils make progress.
I have degrees from Boston College (B.A., Economics) and Salem State College (M.Ed., School Counseling). I was a high school guidance counselor for three years before starting a business as an educational consultant for families involved in the college admissions process. I have tutored the SAT, PSAT, and SSAT since 2002, working for several companies and later on my own. A former newspaper and public relations professional, I am a strong writer.

More About This Tutor...

I believe in making subject matter relevant to your child's life and strive to transform dry or abstract theory into an area of enlivened academic interest. One's ability to learn is directly proportional to the interest that can be mustered for the subject and it is not subjects, but the presentation of subjects, that fluctuate in their level of stimulation. My goal is to take an active interest in my pupil's life and through that to frame the presentation of material to their interests. I have the competency and diligence to master material and to mold it into a context that will empower your child to his/her potential.
I am a firm believer in a well rounded education and that excellence in one subject complements excellence in another. Although I majored in Economics and minored in history, I took an abundance of science courses in order to satisfy prerequisites for dental sc ... read more

I have a lot to offer, having lived many lives in one lifetime. I am a quintessential American-born woman with good Russian language skills. I am hands on, and patient. My computer skills are very good. Successful myself, I know how to nurture that aspect in others. Understanding that all of us learn best in one way or another, I am adaptable.

Regardless of the demographics of the student population in the classroom, I have learned that it is as important to listen as it is to present information. I encourage participation in classromm subjects yet maintain control and functionality of the class so that the lesson is not lost in the discussion. It is rewarding to see the improvment of self esteem and knowledge when people become heard and are understood in a positive environment. The miracle of comprehension is akin to nurturing, encouraging and challenging an individual to blossom and bear fruit that can be enjoyed and savored by many.
I have spent a lifetime educating myself and participating in professional development and then giving back my knowledge and skills to those that may benefit. I have found that I frequently learn as much from those that I teach as they learn from me. My History degree is not only a passio ... read more
