Approach taken is a "Can do experience--constant reassurance is on going to create a win - win atmosphere which motivates student(s)that learning is possible and achieved with the ever forethought that each student is important,unique and special! I always generate a positive -supportive caring attitude promoting helpfulness with each and every part of the learning process. The belief in rote memorization; using cognitive recall; using tactile materials and hands-on activities are very important and always given to great care to assist each student's personal approach to the subject matter which encompasses the student is number one and each question is important and full of potential to every grow and learn.

More About This Tutor...

I have eighteen years of experience: ten at the missle school level, and eight at the high school level. My experience includes teaching "at-risk" students from a wide variety of backgrounds and situations. I have taught sheltered, regular Pre-AP and AP. In addition, I serve as the Social Studies Department Chair. I write curriculum, build after-school tutoring programs, and design effective professional development for my teachers.
My teaching style is fun and engaging. You must find what engages a student. Everyone has a different learning style. My teaching style utilizes any and all manipulatives necessary to engage a student. I also review student data to determine what learning gaps exist.

I hold a BA in Anthropology/Environmental Studies from Bryn Mawr College. I succeeded in Calculus level math and high level Economics courses. Since graduating, I have taken additional college courses in history and government. I have accumulated about 3 years of diverse teaching experiences. I recently spent 6 months as an interpretive Park Ranger at Mount Rushmore National Memorial. While in college, I worked at a community center tutoring elementary school children in math and reading after school. As an Environment Education Peace Corps volunteer for 2 years in Tanzania, I taught a wide range of subjects including English, Biology, nutrition, and HIV/AIDS education.
I believe that learning is a life-long process unique to every individual. I seek whenever possible to encourage a learner's connection or reconnection to the joy of learning, as well as their understanding ... read more
