In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry.
I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosop ... read more

I like to keep a student well organized. This allows me to pinpoint exactly where the problems are so I can concentrate the time on the problem areas. Organization also ensure the student keeps up with the material in the class. I am available to help out with questions assigned in homework or classwork, but my objective is not to merely have the student complete an assignment, but rather understand the topic that was covered. I strive to have the student learn the material rather than just fact recall. I try to make the topics interesting to the student by relating the material to their interests.
As I entered college, I quickly was labeled a tutor by my friends. They would find me before exams so I could give them a crash course on what they needed to know before an exam. Little by little, I had a following of friends and acquaintances who were reliant on me to do well in ... read more

I have lots of energy, and love to help people understand things they are struggling with. I really enjoy teaching people about subjects I personally enjoy, especially the sciences.

I enjoy teaching and working with children. I adapt my lessons and differentiate my instruction to meet the needs of each child. Everyone can learn but in various ways. I use a lot of visual aids and manipulatives to help students learn. With specific resources, patience, and enthusiasm your child can find success and have fun while learning.
I currently hold a bachelors degree in communications and a masters degree in Early Childhood/Childhood education. I have worked in various grades which helped give me a broad understanding of the subject matter taught. My experience has helped me adapt my teaching skills to meet the needs of individual students.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching students is a wonderful challenge. Finding how to motivate each child to achieve their personal best is my specialty. Helping struggling students to want to learn is half the battle, treating students with respect and rewarding positive behavior is key to a good educator.

For the past 4 years I have been a teaching assistant at Half Hollow Hills SD working in the middle school. I have specifically been working with self contained classes providing reading remediation.

I like to use the hands on approach. I find out what the weaknesses are of my students and address the topics by giving a general review. I present a problem for them to work out. After a few minutes, I ask them what they think is the best way to approach the problem. If they cannot come up with one, I then guide them through the appropriate thinking pattern in order for them to solve the problem. For me repetition of different related problems is the key to success.
I elected to be a stay at home mom after a successful career. I wanted a flexible work schedule and thought about tutoring. I found that I loved tutoring students ranging from elementary to college level. I found much satisfaction in students' improved grades and the mastery of the subject that I was able to impart. I strongly believe that education is the doorway to a successful career and tough subjects such as math ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy teaching and watching a student’s growth both academically and personally with my assistance. I can not say that I have only one teaching style. The art of teaching is finding out what is the best way for my students to learn. Each and every student has a different way of learning; may it be lecture, demonstration, or question and answer. The great thing about teaching is that there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way of expressing the material. Many times you have to use multiple methods of teaching to help the students gain a more thorough understanding. Having some professional experience in the Chemistry field is a great tool for both gaining the student’s attention and relating what is done in the classroom to real life scenarios. I gain great satisfaction from helping students obtain the goals they have set.
I graduated from King's College in Pennsylvania in May of 20 ... read more

I would have to say that my teaching style is flexibility. I believe that it is necessary to gauge your students as a group and individually before deciding on which teaching methods would be most effective. I believe that naturalistic teaching is important. I also believe in a form of discrete trial training. It takes some of the basics from Discrete Trial and adapts them to fit the needs of the students that are struggling with certain subjects. Research has proven that all students learn differently and lessons cannot be taught primarily through auditory learning. A teacher especially one in the younger grades must engage in auditory, visual, tactile, kinestics and other learning methods.
