I am a Music Education Major at Towson University.

I have played Trumpet for 9 years, Clarinet for 3, and have taken numerous college methods courses that teach me how to play and teach many other instruments. I am a music education major at Towson University, but I live near Salisbury, MD, and love to help and tutor children in this field during the summer. I do not yet have a degree, but am looking for paid teaching experience to put on my resume.

My comments on tutoring Spelling : I have been called a "Spelling Nazi." Is this an insult or a compliment? I love that I can spell most any word, but I don't like being called a nazi!

I work well with students of all ages.

Because I have a passion for learning, I love to share my own knowledge with others. Because of my own children, I understand that every person has their own style of learning and I love to discover that avenue for people to help them to grasp whatever it is they are trying to understand.
As a graduate of Wellesley College, I continaully strived to do achieve a high level of excellence. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I didn't get a teaching certification while I was in college. It is a profession which I would truly love. As the mother of two children, one of schoolage, I realize now that it would have been a great life choice for me. I have helped many people with their skills along the way, and I would love to do it in a tutoring format now.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have developed an interrogative style of teaching in which I seek to ask the right questions and guide the students to the correct conclusions. I have found this to be far more effective than simply lecturing. I also seek to connect illustrations from everyday life and current events to the course material (when it is fitting to do so). I seek to build rapport with each of my students and "meet them where they're at." I believe that the complimentary cards that I have received from my students indicate that this approach has been a blessing to them.
I have been blessed with several years of teaching experience in both Christian and public schools. I have had the opportunity to work with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade; this has provided me with valuable experience in working with each age group. I have also instructed adult foreign students in basic convers ... read more

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. During the past 20 yrs. I have had a credential in several states, but have tutored only on a volunteer level.
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 neigh ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Many students have difficulty in a classroom setting because the teacher teaches one way, while not all students learn the same way. I believe in getting to know my students during our initial sessions to discover how they learn. Listening and picking up on verbal and body language cues allows me to relate with students. Patience and perseverance are my strong points. If one method doesn’t work, we will try another until we get it right. Your child and I will become a learning team. Parents will also become a part of that team. Our working together is crucial to your child’s success. All students can learn to their potential given the opportunity.

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, who have made bad personal decisions. These all effect knowledge, but not the ability to learn. I love to see students grasp something that has eluded them previously. I firmly believe that children's and adults lives can be changed for the better from good teaching, and I strive to impart real skills and develop character.
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 class ... read more

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.

I've always enjoyed tutuoring others because of the joy I get from seeing them learn new things. I love to see them experience a sense of accomplishment. Knowing that I could be part of their success, is a feeling that is undescribable.

I have taught 3 year olds, 8 year olds, 12 year olds and high school students and the one thing they all have in common is that they all need a structured environment to reach their academic potential. I believe that it is important to hold students to high expectations and challenge them to understand not only what they are learning, but why they are learning it. Because I have worked with hundreds of students, I know that there are many different learning styles and I will adapt any curriculum to fit a student’s particular learning style. I have unlimited patience and I really enjoy seeing the “aha” moment with students I am working with.

I believe all children can learn by using different styles of learning. It is very important to find the best teaching style for each child you tudor. I will work on each childs learning style. Some methods I use are manipulitives, games, flashcards with either words or numbers, and key words to remember.
I have taught Kindergarten, first grade, second grade, fourth grade,fifth grade, sixth grade and tutoring small groups and individually. My most experience was in first and second grade. I have also served on both reading and math councils. I have trained teachers how to teach new math programs.

A Little Bit About Me...

Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way!
As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches.
