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.

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 meet the needs of each person I tutor. I beli

My focus in tutoring is on the student. I adapt myself to the learning styles of the student(s), building on their skills and talents. I recognize that some students retain information best by teaching to others what they learn immediately. So I avail them of that opportunity by encouraging them to actively be involved in making up notes, choosing homework questions and rephrasing content based on their understanding. To me, each tutoring session is about embracing my personal responsibility of helping a student take significant progressive steps toward his/her academic goals. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Marymount University. My cumulative GPA is 3.91/4.0, science and Math GPA 3.93/4.0. An Honor's student, Dean's list recipient every semester of my college years. I worked as a peer tutor, helping other college students while a student myself. Beyond that, I wor

I use the Communicative Learning Teaching for my classes.The communicative approach is a method that emphasizes interaction both as a means of learning and as the ultimate goal. The communicative approach is especially used to teach speaking in the target language. Speaking lessons should always concentrate on communication, which means sometimes ignoring mistakes that do not interfere and finding ways around mistakes that do interfere. What mistakes you do and do not accept should be determined by the level at which the student is expected to perform. My classes are Student-Centered. I choose topics according to the student’s interests, both personal and professional. I use many authentic materials, created by a native speaker and intended for native speakers, written or recorded. Proficiency in reading and listening means the ability to handle authentic texts—and the best way to deve

My passion for teaching is open forum. I meet the students where they are. some are visual, some hands on and some automated. I pace the student and test in areas of weakness. I provide computer advance learning as well as class and peer mentoring. I use all types of devices such as field trips, school resources, library and hands on life experences to get the students more involved. I like the student to process information by coming to the board and classroom prompts to get students involved in the daily lesson. I have been teaching Adult Learners in the subject area GED Science, Language Arts,Fractions and Testing Subjects Writing for more than 4 years @ The Learning Bank of Coil-Under the Department of Educaiton.

Stylistically, I am a showman, a questioner, and possessed of a strong desire to reach every one of my students. I try to connect with each student on a friendly and comfortable level so that confidence-building is easy. It is important for me to find ways to evaluate quickly what the student already knows and still needs to know. I have taught every grade level from Pre-Kindergarten to college in my 30 years in the schools of Connecticut, New York, and Maryland. I was an assistant principal for six years, have taught both academic classroom core subjects and dramatic arts, and have written curriculum for a great variety of settings. I love teaching mathematics and writing, because they are logical and marvelous as life-long tools. I believe the same for reading and literature. My formal training as a stage actor and radio announcer/dj allow me to use my voice as a valuable tool in comm

I currently have two degrees: a B.S. in Environmental Science and a B.A. in Global Studies. In pursuing these degrees I have gained knowledge in various fields including biology, math, chemistry, global politics and economics, Spanish language and culture, and history. Additionally, I have worked for the past three years at a summer camp where I was the Art instructor for children ages 6 to 16; as such I have experience interacting with children of all ages. Finally, for the past two summers I have travelled to Kenya and Peru to work with underprivileged children - these experiences have made me comfortable working with children from all different backgrounds and have taught me the value of education worldwide. My teaching style emphasizes the differences between children, especially with regards to learning styles. Different children comprehend and understand in unique ways - while

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.

I have instructed beginning, intermediate, and advanced French and English language and literature to adults and children from diverse backgrounds. I am currently teaching French at Baltimore County Community College. I have also instructed French at Towson University and the Alliance Francaise in New York. In France I taught English at Maison Ritt Centre Culture in La Ciotat to children and adults. At La Chambre de Commerce de Moulins in Moulins I developed curriculum and designed and executed Business English seminars. I always tailor lessons to students’ level and interests. For example if a student is interested in cooking I will talk about the cuisine of France and terms too use when talking about preparing meals. I like to use drama techniques to facilitate learning as it helps to the student to feel comfortable in situations they would encounter when they are traveling using

I am a motivated teacher who desires to see the goals of the student achieved. Therefore, my teaching style takes the shape of the student, where some students are visual learners, whereas others are auditory or kinesthetic learners. Each style of learning has unique characteristics that enable the student to learn much greater when the learning style is known. By offering the student a survey of questions, I am better able to mold my teaching to their learning style and thus help the student reach their greatest potential for the subject at hand. I have almost 10 years of experience of teaching students for the SAT,GRE, and specific subjects, combined. It started during my freshman year (1999) at Wheaton College (Wheaton, IL). I tutored students through college in Biology, Chemistry and the SAT. Out of this experience, I instructed students for multiple semesters in a Biology Lab

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
