Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Jim Thorpe, PA

I create a learning plan that best suits the student and gives him or her the capacity to confidently understand the material. From 14 years of age, I have tutored elementary school students in Reading, English, and most often and successfully, Math. In highschool, I tutored students in Geometry. I have also assisted G.E.D. students in preparations for the Mathematics portion of the test, which covered basic mathematics and Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1.

My husband is Hispanic which means this language is spoken all day every day in our home. I have learned from many different countries as well as many different dialects and cultures.

I am used to student-led teaching. The students choose the topic they feel they need the most help with. I walk him/her through an example problem or two and then he/she does a few alone. Once I feel that he/she is comfortable with the topic, I ask whether he/she would like to try any more. This allows the student to take control of their time and learning experience, which is often much more interesting and enjoyable for them. However, I am open to going through the book consecutively. This would allow me to practice and prepare for each lesson specifically. I would continue personalizing the education experience. I have had over fifty hours of experience tutoring math on the spot. Students would come in at whatever time was convenient for them while I was available with varying questions from a wide array of subjects. Sessions were student-led and I worked on quickly transferring betwe

I am currently working on a Master's degree, and recently received my TESOL certificate (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). So if you have any issues with English as a second language, I can help with that, as well as any types of writing (I've worked as a writer and editor in several different fields). My B.A. degree is in English, with a minor in Communications. I worked as a tutor to put myself through college. I hope to make learning fun, not drudgery. I will do my best to make it interesting and something to look forward to!

Every student is unique and benefits from an individualized instruction. My style is business casual; I am firm yet warm and encouraging with students.

I have been working with children for the past seven years. Four of those years have included homeschooling pre-school and pre-kindergarten as well as homework help and tutoring the children that I was babysitting. I love tutoring because it allows me to work one-on-one with my students. Tutoring, also, allows me the opportunity to create the ultimate tutoring experience based off of the students learning style and interest. The students that I conducted homework help and tutoring with were within grades 2nd through 6th. I conducted my Student Teaching in a first grade classroom and loved every minute of it. I have a very Hands-On Teaching Style

I was the type of person back in school who could never focus on anything in school,and one year I had to go to summer school.There I met a teacher who changed learning for me completely.I learned thing that i struggled to learn for years in just a couple months.It was amazing.From then on i remembered his teached ways and swore I would become a teacher or even a tutor and teach the same way he did,to help others learn and feel accomplished like I did. I like a fun teaching style,yet one that makes sure that the student's lessons stick in their head.

I have tutored various students ranging from elementary, junior high to college undergraduates in Italian (my mother tongue) and French. I am very passionate about the student's interest in learning another language (I speak 4 languages) and honor their interest by offering a really caring approach: learning a foreign language widens perspectives and knowledge. I care about giving students the best for their learning, helping them to identify ways to continue their learning experience even when the lesson is over; supplying them with resources that may assist them better: each student is unique about the reason they started this 'journey' and I consider this reason very important as far as directing the lessons in a certain way. For parents: I have taught kids as little as 6 years accomplishing wonderful results. Kids are natural learners. Some of them have great capabilities
