A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching, or the best teachers, are required to have a certain undertanding that not just anyone has. I think teaching is a decision that demands patience, excitement, encouragement, care, and the love of making the best students possible. Constructivist approaches to learning and inquiry based teaching, appreciating multiple intelligences, and methods of learning, are all part of my approach to teaching. Students have interests that vary and their interests may very well round out their desire to learn. I strive to make sure to it that my students take away something to learn every time that I see them.
As a driven student & business owner, I've had ownership stakes in different businesses. Educationally, I have had a natural love for mathematics (BS) & life sciences (short of minors in chemistry, physics, and biology). As my involvement in business increased while still in s ... read more

I believe that each child learn differently, and as such, I have found the best way to teach is to cater to each child's individual learning style. In working one-on-one with students, I feel as though it is crucial to build a trusting relationship in which the child feels comfortable stating whether or not the teaching style I am using is working for them. Being only 22 years old, I feel as though I have an advantage, as I am close enough in age to the students that they are able to almost see me as a peer, but I'm also old enough for them to respect me as an adult.
It was in my senior year at UConn that I learned about a program called City Year that enables young people as myself to work within the realm of urban education. As a City Year corps member, I was able to work both inside the classroom and after school with a group of 22 ninth grade boys at Glenville High School in ... read more

As an instructor, I encourage my students to try something new and to make many mistakes so they can learn from them. I work hard with my students and try to get them to think outside of their current knowledge into new ideas and concepts. My style is extremely informal, with much practical discussions inserted to make learning understandable.
My experience is primarily through study, trying, making mistakes, learning from my mistakes and trying again. I push my ability to learn and my level of knowledge in all that I do. Because of my focus in a broad range of subjects, I have been blessed with a wealth of knowledge and an appreciation of how hard it is to learn something new. I have worked in industry for over twenty years and have run my own consulting/contracting firm the last nine years.

After earning a BA in Creative Writing and a BA in English at Oberlin Colege, I taught for a year as a substitute within the Cleveland Municipal School District. After that, I worked for two years as a tutor with the Tutoring Club in Westlake. I primarily assisted high school students with SAT and ACT prep courses. My specialties were writing and English. I've also worked with helping middle school and high school students develop effective study skills and coming up with a good strategies for tackling homework.
To me, the most important thing is to be a good listener. I usually like to spend the first 5 to 10 minutes with a new student just chatting about their academic life and their study habits. That gives me a good sense of where they are, what areas they will likely be strong in and what areas where they will likely need further development. It also helps the student feel mor ... read more

I began tutoring as a high school student for the Wayne State University Math Corps. I tutored students entering the 7th and 8th grade in math topics ranging from basic math to calculus. I continued tutoring at the University of Michigan in the Sweetland Writing Center, helping college students draft and revise essays for a variety of subjects. I also spent a summer in Honduras teaching English to elementary students ranging from grade K-5. In this setting I was in command of my own classroom of students. I am now a recent graducate of the University of Michigan where I earned a bachelor's degree in Secondary Education with certification in Spanish and English. I currently teach ACT prep to college prep students.
My teaching philosophy revolves around individual student needs. I understand that all students learn differently and sometimes teaching to "the middle" that is common in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Learning is always easier when it is fun and interesting. In any given teaching situation I look for ways to add zest to learning. At the outset of tutoring I do an assessment of where students are currently achieving in a specific subject area, and identify skills that they may be lacking. Next, I develop a learning plan with specific goals. This becomes the basis for a learning contract between myself and the person seeking tutoring. Learning is best achieved in an interactive teaching style where students are encouraged to ask questions and participate in problem solving. I am a patient person who believes that all students can successfully learn.
My undergraduate years at Princeton University instilled in me a passion for learning and a personal commitment to academic excellence. Most of my adult work life has been focused on coaching individuals to overcome handicaps and maxi ... read more

Teaching science is my greatest passion, as I feel many people have many misconceptions in the field. I am patient, but firm, and acclimate to the climate and the students around me to best facilitate learning. I am always available by email to my students, and will do anything I can to help an eager student. It is important, in the sciences, for students to conduct their own research and to be active learners, as in my experience, this is vital to the retention of information. I enjoy teaching a variety of topics and feel that any student can learn and enjoy any subject when within a positive and encouraging atmosphere. My ultimate goal is to foster a love of science in every student I teach.
I served as a mentor to a middle school student as a high school student from 1999-2002. I have volunteered for the Cleveland Metroparks since 2006, and enjoy public outreach. I have a strong ... read more

I prefer to teach by utilizing real-life situations that are pertinent to the subject matter. In my opinion, when you are able to bring the subject matter to life by making it relevant to the students you are teaching, there is a greater chance that the student will not only understand the information, but remember it long after they leave the classroom.
As a classroom aid, I was responsible for implementing the curriculum developed by the teacher. I also had the opportunity to work one-on-one with students who needed additional assistance. As an assistant teacher, my duties included but were not limited to curriculum development, facilitating parent teacher conferences, and accurate record keeping of the student's progress. To date, I have earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in psychology and two minors in sociology and justice studies. I also have a Masters degree ... read more

My teaching style is extremely hands-on. I have found through my coaching and swim lesson experience that I relate well to kids and by approaching the situation in a fun and friendly way I believe I reach the children more effectively. I have been extremely successful in teaching swim lessons and have helped beginners to reach elite athlete status. I employ the same tactics in the classroom and was a very successful mentor to troubled kids through the Be a T.I.G.E.R! program at Clemson University. My enthusiasm and creativity in teaching tactics help me to make the children understand the subject.
I obtained my BS in Business Management from Clemson University in August of 2009. During my time there I was a member of the Varsity Swimming team where I competed against world class athletes within the Atlantic Coast Conference.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a teacher, I realize every person is different. I like to work on learning the personality of the student. With a strong background in philosophy and psychology, I can make it a priority to ensure that a child receives a sense of accomplishment and gain self esteem in his or her work.
As a graduate of Kent State University's Bachelor Of Arts program, I have acquired many skills. I have experience in tutoring students in the arts as well as sciences and math for more than 10 years. I pride myself on my teaching ability. I think teaching is an art in itself. I have worked with a diverse group of students.
