My lessons can range from private lessons to group lessons of no more than five at one time. I prefer to be very involved in my students' progress, and will readily explain any questions that they do not understand. My main strategy is basically to lay out the concepts that will be covered that day, go over several practice problems, and give three or four practice problems for the students to work on independently. For art students, I will demonstrate with explanation the concept that we will be covering in that lesson (be it portraiture basics or still life basics), draw diagrams with the steps clearly labeled, and have the student independently work on a similar piece which applies the same concepts. I will supervise the student's progress and correct any lasting errors, but I prefer to have the students produce an almost entirely independently produced piece each session. I have work

I have tutored test preparation and test taking for the SAT and ACT for many years. There are specific approaches necessary to ensuring a high score on these exams - and different strategies for approaching each exam - and I will coach you into achieving your goals and qualifying for the school of your choice. Starting as an English major, and working as a tutor for Huntington Learning Centers, I have always loved working with students of all levels in the English language - in all its facets: from grammar to style. At a time when proper use of the language is increasingly rare (but required to master tests) it is a special interest of mine to promote successful language arts skills and strategies in students. Good writing can be persuasive, informative, or entertaining, and each has its particular components. Having been a professional writer, editor, tutor and teacher, I am intimat

As an educator in the public sector, I recognize the growing gap in education. I also understand the pressure put on teacher's and the lack of time to get student's to where they need to be. It is imperative that students have the opportunity to be provided with academic assistance that is relative to what is needed to progress through school and life. With over twelve years of experience, a Masters in Business, and a Specializing in Educational leadership, I have the qualities that is needed for students achieve academic success.

I enjoy teaching and working with children. While I believe that all children can learn, they do so in their own ways and at their own pace. It is the tutor’s responsibility to ensure that the student(s) understand the material. It is important to show students how one idea builds on the last. I will help your child learn the material in his/her own way. I consider myself to be patient, non-judgmental, and knowledgeable of the subject matter. I truly believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I am very proud of the kind letters of thanks that I have received from parents of some of my students this year. As an engineer and I have taught planners and engineers how to use software to do calculations.
