I believe that to be a great teacher you can never have just one style or method because we all assimilate knowledge in different ways. However, my teaching philosophy is to teach so students learn but also have fun. My mission or goal as a teacher is to provide students with the knowledge, ability and confidence to apply language and culture in everyday situations and to instill a desire of self-learning and personal motivation. This can only be achieved through providing the very best and appropriate lessons through a collaborative effort of teacher and student. A combination of in-room instruction combined with specialized activities and topics will create a more fruitful learning environment. I genuinely love to teach and I always strive to give my absolute best to students. I am patient, caring, honest and I am able to adapt my teaching style to the student. I have always been

As a graduate of Curry College in 1970 with a BS degree, I was fortunate to be hired by the Boston Public School System. After teaching for three years, I began graduate school at Boston State College. The majority of courses were in special education, which proved to be useful in my career as a teacher. I have tutored students in most areas of education. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching for the last 33 years. Although I am now retired, I still want to continue being an educator and I look forward to doing this through tutoring. I always enjoyed working with children in all areas of education. I have been tutoring children for over 10 years after my classroom duties ended. I have taught most subjects in grades 5-12. During the past 20 years, I have taught in the area of special needs. I am very organized, dependable, and relate well with children and parents. I look forward to being a

I have a bachelor of Science in mechanical Engineering. I have experience as a Physics teacher, test engineer, and Mechanical Engineer. I have obtained this experience with Broward County, Cordis a Johnson & Johnson Company, and Motorola. I enjoy seeing the light bulb go on when students grasp a difficult concept. I provide students with a template for gathering information from word problems. This helps find out what the real question is and how to choose the right equation(s). This allows students to be comfortable solving problems with or without an instructor present.

I believe that the best tutors are those who do not merely strive to dispense knowledge, but, rather, work to establish a dialogue with their students. Once this dialogue is established, the student becomes an active participant in the learning process; the student no longer receives knowledge passively, but begins instead to ask incisive questions that spur the learning process and inspire self confidence. The best students are those who know how to ask the right questions, and through constant encouragement and by cultivating expansive discussions, I enable my pupils to develop as independent and thoughtful learners. I was the valedictorian of my graduating class at the University of Richmond, and I have since been accepted to several of the top PhD programs for History in the United States. Before commencing my graduate studies this coming fall, however, I hope to pursue my passion

Excellent in math, I began college as a physics major, but I soon switched to biology and finished with a PhD in Zoology. I authored numerous reports.

I am a member of the Mensa society. My work in environmental consulting was both with companies and as an independent contractor. Subsequently, I owned art and antique shops and now sell through internet after teaching myself HTML and CSS. I have taught myself French and can easily read it. Learning is an exciting discovery of how things work, and conveying this can create active, interested, and successful students. The essence of tutoring is the interaction that allows the discovery of the correct approach for one student. With adjustments from student feedbac

My teaching interest came about from the desire of sharing my knowledge and wanting to give back to future students what I have experience while accomplishing my goals. I believe all students have the ability to achieve great things; however, the challenge is to reach each student in their own individual way. I am able to do so because I am patient, hard working, and desire to see each of my student accomplish their short term goals weather it’s earning an a in a particular class or developing self confidence to do what ever it is the desire to achieve in live. My goal is to be the best to my students and to be there whenever they need me to be there for them. If it’s at 10:00 p.m.in the evening via text messaging, emails, or a telephone call. I am there for each of them. I have over fourteen years experience as a professional and it varies from being an analyst to working as a registere

Children relate well to me. I am not a dictator and the work still gets done. Everyone has his/her own rate and style for learning. I want a child to feel comfortable around me and not nervous. As a teacher it is my job to find which method works for each child. Some children may prefer to read a great deal alone and then write an essay. Another may prefer a boisterous classroom with a lot of student/teacher interaction. I try to accomodate each child. I would want to instill a love of learning and curiosity about our world. As a Midwestern woman from Chicago, I grew up with a very strong work ethic. I put myself through college by working in the business world each summer and college breaks. I attended Illinois State University where I was taught how to be self-sufficient and how to really think. I am resourceful and know how to find information as well. But, most of all I am a

My teaching style is one of great patience, understanding, and desire to help students individually. Tutoring provides the chance to be creative in finding the method that opens the door to learning that which is closed for a child. I am a quiet and laid back mentor who easily wins the confidence of a young person. I am persistent to a fault, until the student comprehends. I believe that practice is the key to learning. I am a man born to teach. The inner satisfaction of imparting new knowledge to someone else, especially of a subject I love, has been the force that drove me through teaching Spanish for 34 years. My writing and speaking skills are equally excellent in Spanish and English. My joy in sharing knowledge drew me to the degree of Media Specialist; helping others to find knowledge. Now retired, I sought out tutoring positions to continue to help others find joy in learn
