Individualized Instruction for Unique Learners

varies depending upon student's needs
16 years of Public School Teaching Experience 15 years of Preschool Education Teacher I taught students with various special needs in a public school system for sixteen years. I left teaching to raise my son and then to raise my step children. I decided to re-enter the world of work and began to work part time in various offices (insurance, real estate, small business, clothing store and landscaping/gardening center) so that I could have the experiences outside of a classroom environment. I decided to work with children and began to pursue a position as a preschool teacher. I have experience working with adults who happen to have various special needs and I have worked with children from kindergarten through high school. My degree in special education has allowed me to be proficient with individualizing instruction and curriculum to me ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a certified teacher and have been working with students of the elementary age for four years through my college career. I completed my student teaching with Fairfax County Public Schools and with Department of Defense Education Activity in Heidelberg, Germany. I have worked with students on all levels and feel that getting them interested in what is being taught is the first step in learning. I am a lifelong learner and would like to teacher your student how to become one too.

A Little Bit About Me...

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

A Little Bit About Me...

My basic teaching philosophy places a large emphasis on meeting each individual student’s needs through differentiated instruction. My school has invested in numerous workshops and training session to refine these skills. I have also had a great deal of experience with studying neurological brain functions and how they affect learning styles. This training along with my experience has taught me that not every student learns at the same rate nor by the same methodology and that it is important to tailor my approach to each student while also adhering to specific standards.
I have spent the last four years as a Middle School Language Arts teacher in Baltimore, Maryland at Krieger Schechter Day School. I am responsible for instruction and evaluation of 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Language Arts classes. I have had the opportunity to bring innovative strategies to the classroom. My cou ... read more

A Little Bit About 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 will not only be their teacher but also their friend. I will show them that their education is going to be useful for them later. I also like to show students that what they learn can be useful and practical.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Loyola graduate with a multidisciplinary degree and extensive teaching experience in the U.S. as well as overseas. While attending college in Baltimore, I volunteered with a series of after school tutoring programs. One program with which I worked in my junior year involved tutoring inner city middle school students in math and reading. In my senior year, I provided homework assistance to newly arrived refugees who faced overwhelming language barriers in their classes. My overseas experiences include one year working as a volunteer English teacher in Ecuador and two years in China with a study abroad program. My position in Ecuador taught me to work independently and creatively as I taught classes to Spanish-speaking students from pre-school to high school with very limited resources and without prior knowledge of Spanish. In China, I spent my first year giving English class ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

Read More About Laura B...

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.
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.

A Little Bit About Me...

Although some students are naturally gifted in reading and writing, I believe every student can learn strategies to strengthen their language ability. Good writing begins with good reading, and many students need training about how to focus their minds during the reading process. Effective writing is also a result of effective thinking. Students often struggle with writing because they have not spent enough time on the mental planning and pre-writing stage of the composition process. I can help students work on a specific writing project or work on their own grammar and editing skills. I can also offer general approaches for helping students read more effectively, study more efficiently, write more clearly, and think more critically.
After evaluating over 7,200 college English papers, I know the language skills that students need to develop in high school. I have taught colle ... read more
