SUCCESS, RIGHT AT YOUR DOORSTEP!

I have been an educator for almost 20 years. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher and immediately fell in love with teaching children with special needs. Desiring to continue to teach, I finished a Master's degree which gave me the endorsements to teach K-12 children with special needs. Since then, I have taught reading and mathematics to both children with special needs and regular education children at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. As I gained a greater thirst to do more to help children, outside of teaching in the public school setting, I bagan tutoring. Between teacing within the public school and tutoring outside of the public school setting, I gained a great deal of experience when it comes to identifying strategies that cause children to learn and retain what they have learned. After all was said and done, I finally capped my educational aspir ... read more

I always try to find a different approach to learning. If the material is delivered in a boring way, it won't be memorized. I try to engage students to become really interested in the subject. I use metaphors and comparisons to explain the meaning of a certain word of phrase and a clue to remember both its spelling and meaning. My goal is to share the information with other people, so that one day, they can use it to be successful people.

Elementary Reading is one of my top subjects! I am a mother of a growing seven year old! I am very passionate in assisting fellow elementary students excel and enhance their skills. I am part of my daughter's PTA and monthly tutor her fellow classmates in reading skills. I have been part of the PTA for two years. For the past two years, I have been a private tutor for elementary children. Finally, for ten years, I professionally tutored my sister in language.I can help your child enhance his or her reading skills by consistently providing them books, worksheets, and reading projects that are appropriate to their age and grade. My daughter is in the first grade however she she reads on the second grade level ONLY because I provide her additional reading and writing assignments.

I am a very friendly and patient individual. Since I specialize in tutoring elementary children to adults,I understand I am going to have different methods of teaching. For all my students, I try to find out what their weakness and strengths are. I attempt to have them notice it as well; that way we can work together as a team. For children, I always have some type of reward or goal for them to strive for. For example, I would remind the student that after they finish their assignments they would receive a sticker, lollipop (under parent permission), or medal.I have found children love recognition. This keeps them focused or excited. For my adult session, the end of the day goal would be a little different. I would remind the student their goal and why they are pursuing tutoring. On the last day of the tutoring session, I usually treat the student out for lunch, provide a certificate of ... read more

When I am not teaching, I am spending time with my family. We love having fun outdoors and playing together. Through tutoring, I will still be able to teach children as well as spend the needed time with my family. If you need assistance in elementary education, I can help!

Elementary, Middle, High School and College Tutor

I usually start with a diagnostic test to concentrate on weaker areas then come up with a weekly plan focusing on those areas. After a lesson, I usually give worksheets and sometimes online exercises, depending on the subject, and use videos and games if applicable.
I have tutored and mentored students for more than five years in Algebra I & II, Trigonometry, Physics, Chemistry, English and ESL. I have a degree in Psychology and a certificate in TEFL. I believe tutoring is a really helpful and useful addition to class and studying by oneself because it is reviewing class material once again and it is a way for students to be accountable to yet another person who knows the answers to their questions and can help them work to that answer as well.

Creativity is Key

I've been tutoring English for almost 2 years and playing bass for five. I enjoy teaching and watching people learn. I believe in teaching a craft in a way the student will surpass the teacher and perfect it. I have a pretty unique style of tutoring.

I love the subject of Algebra. I have been tutoring private students in Algebra 2 for 5 years now. One past College level student - she did pass the class - and now a high school student who was having problems and now the light is finally being turned on.

Patient, Results-Oriented, and Dedicated!

I use effective practices, strategies, and resources to inspire and enrich each student's learning. Direct instruction, workbooks, visual aids, computers, math manipulative, hands-on activities, mini-labs, student-centered discussions, one-on-one tutoring and small-group instruction are used to honor various learning styles, students' needs and goals, as well as to ensure they are active learners. Students participate in small-group instruction, hands-on activities, mini-labs; may use computers for further enrichment and technology-integration; analyze words and stories; make real-life applications to concepts being presented; and customize their own learning environment through student-centered and teacher-led discussions and enrichment activities while receiving caring and effective support and guidance from me!
As a person who works with various groups of people, I continuou ... read more
