I am a patient, conscientious and dedicated mentor who is skilled at helping struggling students to become successful and good students to excel.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Work with grades 4+ through adult on Critical Reading, Comprehension, Reader Response, SAT Reading

I am a learner-centered instructor. When working with an individual I try to understand his or her learning approaches and needs. I believe that I work well with alternative learners and with young adults who may be disaffected with conventional educational methods. I particularly enjoy working with adults and feel that I often learn so much more from them than what I am able to offer. When working with adult learners I respect that their personal lives and needs may intersect with our instructional time. Frequently I will incorporate whatever is going on in their lives into our current "curriculum."
Most recently I have worked as a reading specialist. I have over 25 years of experience as an English as a Second/Foreign Language educator. I have taught at all levels k-12, as well as University. I have extensive experience teaching at the adult level and enjoy working ... read more

Dedicated Learner Wishing to Help Others

Because of law school, I teach mostly by asking questions. This enables students to feel proud of figuring things out on their own. Unlike my law school professors, however, I am sweet and nurturing.
I tutored students throughout law school in various subjects including, but not limited to, writing. Since opening my own legal writing, researching and editing business, I have assisted attorneys and lay people develop their own writing skills. I am a clasically trained actress who performed in several off Broadway shows in New York City. Although I majored in theatre performance, I excelled in creative writing, with an emphasis on poetry. In high school, I placed out of college English, enabling me to take nothing but creative writing classes. I am a grammar and punctuation nazi with excellent reading comprehension skills. I excel at testing. As an actress/attorney, I have become ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Being able to teach my students how to identify the main idea and find the details that support it and to highlight them or net them on a separate piece of paper.

My students enjoy coming to lessons with Ms. Sharon. I make them feel comfortable, and always encourage them to ask me questions. I always ask them if their was something that they had in the classroom that they didn't understand, and they are not inhibited to tell me so. They know I will not judge them on that, I am just inquiring to help them out so that when they go back into the classroom they will understand what is going on. I want to make their classroom experience as pleasant as possbile. So with lots of repetition and encouragement they will not find it so hard in the class.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : See comments on English

I am gentle, yet demanding. I am soft, but strict. I use humor to keep my students interested and in focus. I teach, but I also listen and watch for signals from my students in order to know if they understand or need more explanation. I develop a bond with my students regardless of the students'age which allows us, as a "team" to move together toward success. I believe that every student can learn -- some just learn faster than others, or easier than others, and it is my job, my privilege to help them learn how to do their very best.
I have been teaching many years, and I make sure I keep very much up to date with the teaching styles and ideas in use today, I have bona fide references available from students and their parents, (past and present) to show prospective students. I have worked with students for whom English is a second (or third or fourth) language). I have work ... read more

Expert at finding the solution to help you or your child!

Our tutors are trained to be able to relate problems to the real world, making them concrete and simple. For example, a question may ask what is 7 times 25? This problem is abstract and challenging to some people. Thus, I rephrase it to, "If you have 7 quarters in your pocket, how much money do you have?" By making the problem more relatable to the student, the problem suddenly appears easier and less intimidating. Our tutors go through training on how to assess each student's individual learning style, and know how to adapt to each student. Being able to adapt to different learning styles is what sets out tutors about and ensures that the students learns!

Teacher, Tutor, Editor, Study Coach

I tailor my teaching style to individual needs. I like to use Powerpoints, interactive quizzes, and online resources such as quiz flash cards to enhance my tutoring, and if I notice an area of weakness I will find exercises to address the problem. I can also help with study skills.
I love teaching and learning! I have degrees in English and law, and have over ten years' experience teaching and tutoring in many subjects. I enjoy teaching students at all levels, from struggling learners to second language learners to doctoral candidates. My forte is research and writing, and I am familiar with APA, MLA, and Bluebook format. I can take a good paper and make it great! I work as a teacher and tutor at Lynn University's Writing Center.

Affordable and Experienced Tutor - All Subjects & Test Prep

I have tutored numerous students in all subjects ranging from Mathematics to Science Fair project execution and practice. I am well-versed in all middle and highschool topics. I am a member of the Duke University Class of 2019, I won third place at the International Science and Engineering Fair, and earned a 2400 on my SAT. I have tutored for three years and enjoy seeing the progress that the students make after our sessions.
I prioritize student response to tutor feedback as each student reacts differently to tutoring - some show immediate progress, some require take-home assignments, and some require constant one-on-one attention over the course of a short or long period. My job as a tutor is to adapt to your child's needs. I welcome parent involvement as it often assists the student in progressing.

Students Come First

I have been teaching for 14 years in the Broward County School District. I have extensive experience when it comes to tutoring. I have been tutoring for 12 years in the areas of Reading, Math, and Writing using test taking strategies. Last summer, I started my own tutoring program. It was a success! All the students that attended my tutoring camp were very success this year in school.
I am a well rounded teacher who will adapt to the students learning styles. In my classroom I teach using different learning styles and techniques. I believe that all students learn differently so they should be taught differently.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Elementary to adult education

Pleasant and respectful but firm, listen as well as teach. Tutor work from teacher's information to insure the student understands the lesson given by school teacher.
Twenty years of rotating between five schools as a permanent School Board Certified substitute teacher/tutor as well as tutor college students at the college location. The reading, writing and math included ESOL students. Computer classes which included ESOL students, were keyboarding, word processing, power point, excel and internet. There were adult evening classes on the same subjects. Also write lesson plans, request for needed supplies, oral reports on many different areas of student abilities.
