A Little Bit About Me...

Iam patient and understanding. I work at a pace that works with each individual student.I praise the student when they try their best and make them feel important. I try to make them realize they are important and can achieve anything they want by working hard and practicing at all times
I have been a paraprofessional at a high school in Randolph Ma for five years assisting special education (inclusion) students in all academic areas. These students have psychological and emotional issues. Some students just need extra attention to focus and reach their full potential. Some have low self esteem and I give them extra help whenever necessary

Patient and Supportive, but always Persistent

I am patient and supportive, but persistent. Each student's mind works differently, and I work tirelessly to find the best way to present material to every child or adult. I have a varied background, not just in the academic world, and I feel I can find the right way to relate to each individual. I try to be somewhat informal, but I recognize the times when a little extra emphasis on the need to really concentrate is necessary.
I have logged over 5,000 hours of tutoring in the last four years. I have worked for a game company, which taught me how to approach tests as a contest between student and test-maker, and my extensive background as a writer gives me practical experience when it comes to teaching English and related subjects. My competence in math has always been obvious, as my 796 score (maximum 800) on the math SAT will attest. But most important: I love to teach any child ... read more

Individualized instruction

Brain based instruction focusing on individual learning styles.
I taught for seven years in public education. My experience spans from grades 5-8. In that time, I worked with a diverse population with varying needs. My classroom was inclusionary which required modification of instruction, and learning about a variety of learning disabilities. Many of my students were ESL, as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Visual Arts Teacher and Special Educator, I am a resourceful, energetic person with a commitment to fostering lifelong learning in students. I am positive, outgoing, and approachable, with a talent for drawing out young people and putting them at ease. My philosophy in education is that all children are capable of being successful in school and life and their experiences and accomplishments should feel both enjoyable and rewarding through their own desires and perseverances. Given the rapid advancements in technology, I have come to realize that students can access much of the information needed to be successful in life. With this in mind and given the ever changing classroom philosophies around methods and instruction, I believe teachers’ curriculum and lesson plans can also include ways to support their roles as facilitators in a classroom where the teacher then guides student ... read more

College Undergrad Looking to Tutor English Students

Not only was English my favorite subject as well as the one I was most proficient in in high school, it eventually became my major in college. I majored in Journalism at The University of New Hampshire, and while I have not yet received my Bachelor's of Arts from the institution I am a mere handful of credits away from earning it (9, to be exact), an accomplishment I am attempting to achieve by transferring credits over from The Community College of Rhode Island. While attending UNH, I wrote for the school's newspaper, The New Hampshire, edited my fellow writer's work, and eventually went on to intern and temporarily work for our local Valley Breeze.
While I have never conducted a formal tutoring session, I have edited the work of my peers and more recently assisted my girlfriend's younger sister with the completion of her college essay. From my experience, I have found that I p ... read more

My comments on tutoring Writing : I encourage students to start writing in English and can take them to the next level.

I have over ten years experience teaching ESOL. I help my students to overcome their fear of speaking English through encouraging classes and a range of teaching methods. One of my students said, "I was afraid to speak with people...in the end I lost that fear. I felt comfortable in your lessons. Thank you, thank you, thank!" My students have fun and work hard. My students improve their pronunciation, grammar usage, and fluency.

Tutor available for English and Drawing artwork!

As far as teaching goes, I am mostly here to help the person with the way they write their papers, organization of paragraphs, spelling, whether or not the writing makes sense to the reader, and whether or not the reading understands what is written. I believe in being honest about my critiques to the person's writing and being a fair judge all to help the student improve his or her skills so they can become not just good but great at what they are doing. As far as drawing goes, I will do my best to help the person understand the concept of shapes and building a good foundation for their art work.
I have worked as a volunteer for the Read Out and Read Program at the Brockton Neighborhood Healthcare Center in Brockton, Massachusetts from 2009 to 2013. I worked as a volunteer at the Turner Free Library in Randolph, Massachusetts from 2011-2012. I have been drawing since I was five ye ... read more
