I am a credentialed teacher of ESL. I maintain relationships with students by building confidence, making them feel comfortable and having fun. I make sure lesson plans cover the many activities and events taking place in and around the city, including those in students’ neighborhood. My experiences living abroad in Spain really helped me understand how isolated one can feel. Many of my students need someone to motivate them and tap into the resources outside the classroom. Inside the classroom I need to let low-literacy patients who cannot follow medical instructions that I am there for them. I also enjoy showing short clips of old and recent movies to discuss “visual clues.” I gain satisfaction when students take pride in their accomplishments.

I am an Ivy League English major undergrad and enjoy teaching. Business executive looking to assist elementary and high school children with their studies. I am a voracious reader and a life-long learner. I like children, have had exposure to tutoring before, enjoyed it immensely, was very good at it (in the sense that the children enjoyed my friendly manner and enjoyed the learning experience) and would like to help children remedy deficiencies and perhaps even learn how to enjoy learning as much as I do. Friendly, non-threatening, clear and accomplishment-oriented.

Creative. I try to make learning fun. I believe that the problem is that kids don't find learning fun so they don't want to do it. I've been tutoring my classmates, neighbor's kids & friends for a long time in specified subjects and with specific assignments. My speciality is a tie between Social Studies and English. My favorite moment is when they get that look in their eyes when they finally understand something and say "Oh! I get it now!"

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 philosophy. I

Love to teach writing. I have written so many research papers, essays, and argument papers that I have become an expert in the how to. I teach every student I work with the basics of writing. The older students, I teach argument writing techniques as well as how to write a research paper. Writing is one of two subjects we learn as students that we use in our everyday life. I would love to teach your child how to be a great writer. The first strategy that I use is building a relationship with the student by getting to know who they are, what there favorite things are, subjects, goals etc... This helps me discover what strategies I can use to help them learn. I also try to discover which learning method works best. Are they visual or auditory learner? Do they learn by having things taught step by step, or do they learn through visual or read aloud examples? I believe that every student has

There are 5 specific writing types. When these are identified, modeled and practiced in a variety of ways the mystery is taken out of the writing process while learning the clear structure that is needed for each type of writing. I received my bachelor degree in elementary education. After having my two daughters, I went to graduate school and achieved a masters degree as a Reading Specialist. I was a graduate assistant and taught in a learning center for two years while earning my masters degree. Upon graduation I was an adjunct professor at C.W. Post, taught reading at a private school, a public school and then worked full time managing the reading department In an elementary school for eighteen years. During that time I had the opportunity to teach a support before school program, summer literacy as the lead teacher, creating my curriculum and a Saturday Academy in the middle school
