Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects!

I am a 6th grade teacher at a public school in NJ. I have over 20 years of teaching experience in all elementary and middle school subjects. I offer tutoring in grades 3 - 8 for both remediation and enrichment. I'm also experienced with preparing adults for the teaching certification and nursing school exams. Tutoring sessions are held at my local public library or on Zoom (your preference). I am available after school hours as well as on the weekends, and during school breaks.
As a classroom teacher, I enjoy engaging students in the learning process. Private tutoring offers a customized approach to your child's education. My methodology is both fun and effective, and I develop lessons specifically for your child's individual needs. I aim to provide my students with the confidence and intellectual fortitude necessary for them to be successful in all that they do.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I teach reading (communication skills) as a College Professor and I have written articles, such as "An Introduction to Computer Literacy", for reading textbooks. I have helped many students to learn to read faster and with more comprehension. I am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

Reading is the Key to Success!

My teaching style is flexible. I create a lesson plan that is individualized and benficial to that of the student I am tutoring. I adapt and adjust the curriculum to what is of primary importance to my student.
I have worked in the field of education as a teacher for 30 years. I have taught basic skills in foundations of Reading to middle school students. I have also taught all subject areas to elementary school children. The most memorable and most valuable experience in my career was teaching first graders how to read. It takes a trained professional to be able to lay out the framework children need to learn how to read. Reading skills on the first grade level are the most rudimentary and applicable to all grade levels there after.

Sherri -Elementary School Teacher

I enjoy working with a student one-on-one. As an educator, I know that every child develops on a different learning curve, which is why the tutoring process is so crucial. Working individually with a child can help them overcome some of the frustration and confusion that comes along with learning in a crowded classroom. I have a great amount of patience and understanding to help the child develop his own learning style and guide him to work through the problems at his own pace to ensure that he truly understands the material. I have had the pleasure helping numerous students realize their potential and see their grades and self-esteem improve over time.
I have been an elementary school teacher for 23 years. Currently, I work as a fourth grade teacher for the Philadelphia School System. I have tutored many students throughout my career and have found it to be extremely beneficial ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Certified in NJ

Interactive, based on the needs of each student to attain proficiency.
I have taught and/or tutored all the languages I have rated myself as an expert since 1952, and am still doing it presently, concentrating on remedial tutoring. I am also certified to teach Spanish; even though the system does not allow me to show more that three subjects, I am an expert in and as a native speaker of the language, I consider myself more than qualified to teach the language.

Learning Improves with Positive Reinforcement.

I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem.
I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.

Every child can learn, just not in the same way!

I am an Elementary school teacher for 6 years. I have my BA in Psychology, from Rutgers University, and hold my teaching certificate for Elementary K-6 and Special Education K-12. Prior to being a teacher, I have worked for an outreach program, working one to one with Autistic and Down Syndrome students. I have taught every subject in elementary education and continue teaching every summer by working for my districts summer school program.
I love hands on teaching through games and centers. Keeping students engaged is my top priority. Due to the recent happenings in the world, I am offering online tutoring for the time being. However I would love to continue my tutoring journey, in person, with your child once the world is back to normal!
