Bringing fun and learning together to achieve success!

Many years of experience teaching, working, and tutoring children of all ages. Every child learns in a different way. I want to be able to find the best way and help children have fun while learning. It is important to establish what learning method works best for a child before teaching can take place. A child will be successful if they are having fun and learning in a style that they feel comfortable with.
Hands on learning, use of technology, books, group learning, creative role play of different ways to solve problems.

Experienced and Proactive Educator

I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.
Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students.

I am not a teacher; I am an awakener!

I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency. Working with young adolescents and adults proved to be just as rewarding as working with small children. Helping someone achieve a life long dream of obtaining their high school diplom ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe as an educator you have to understand the topic you are teaching and the students your are teaching. As a teacher you are dealing with various levels of learning as well different personalities. I believe you have to be open to what works for the individual and the classroom. Many young students do not understand why they must learn and why it is important. We as educators must show students how education applies to all life, especially theirs. Passion and drive can be all the difference for a childs success. Therefore inspiration is vital and we must provide it to the best of our abilities.
Working with students and education has been a part of my life for about 11 years. I first began doing so in high school, around 1999 working as a volunteer with the YMCA. Eventually I became a counselor and would work my way up to Camp Director. I am proud to say that I am t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I do not have a lot of experience in the teaching field but I am a natural born teacher. I have been a mentor to many people in my life; friends, co-workers, even family members would say the same. If given the opportunity I will be able to grow with and enjoy the success of all my students. We will indulge in the passion of education!
I am a very interactive, do-it-yourself kind of educator. There is nothing more liberating and inspiring than understanding and recognizing the limitlessness of one's own ability. With just the right push from me, our children can reach unbeleivably great heights!

I love children for their unabashed honesty. I treat them with respect and do my utmost to listen deeply to their needs. I'm a very patient, detail-oriented person and frequently use humor to create an environment that the child finds is fun in which to learn and one where both mentor and child have mutual respect. A willingness/openness to learn the challenging subjects is key on the child's part. It is a joy to help a child learn and watch them grow more confident in the process.
I have enjoyed the written word my entire life. I have written poetry, screenplays, short stories, advertising copy, grants, business plans, marketing plans, newsletters and press releases. My understanding of grammar and syntax is second nature to me. I have tutored children in English (reading and writing) for more than 15 years.

I have worked with students of many ages having a wide range of interests, strengths, and needs and I would like to continue providing encouragement and assistance to others on an individual basis. I have always enjoyed writing and sharing ideas and strategies with students. Throughout my years of classroom teaching, natural history, biographical studies, arts, crafts, and literature have provided content for lessons and have helped many students begin and complete their writing projects. Much of my focus has been to help others find a connection to subject matter and make learning authentic, useful, and meaningful.
I am patient and enjoy using a wide variety of materials and methods as I work. I believe in learning along with my students, finding ways to create interesting and memorable lessons, tackling the rough spots together, building confidence and skills steadily and sur ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I teach to the individual, searching out the students learning style and model my teaching efforts based on my assessment. I have spent my career working with those that have had the greatest difficulty learning. I have also tutored and taught those who excel, and those in between. I have been exceptionally successful on all levels.
I started my career as a 5th grade teacher and became very interested in Special Ed. In 1973 I joined the West Park Union Free School a newly legislated Special Ed. school as a teacher/ administrator. I moved to Educational administration in 1986. I returned to the classroom in 1990. I retired from public education in 2003 and became a teacher for Our Lady of Lourdes HS. I created a special program there concentrating on learning disabilities, study skills and other problem areas. I am now again retired.

I enjoy helping students understand the principles they are dealing with, rather than focusing on helping them simply "get the answer" to the problem at hand. My goal is for them to be able to generalize the concept and apply it in different contexts. To develop interest, I seek to discuss related information or similar problems as much as possible. For Physics in particular, this approach is key to providing a sound foundation for future learning.
Most of my career has been spent at IBM, where I built on my Physics background for a broad range of opportunities. I am now seeking to move into a teaching career and plan to start a Masters in Teaching in the Fall of 2009. During my educational development, I taught for three years in undergraduate and graduate school as part of the duties of a teaching Assistant. I have tutored secondary school students for the last 5 years in M ... read more

My teaching philosophy revolves around the notion that students need respect, encouragement, and guidance to succeed in all of their academic endeavors. I believe the best way to inspire students is by conveying our own passion for the subject through out attitude of reverence for the written word, our knowledge of literature and writing, and our confidence in our own skills as educators. I believe all students can learn to write well when given a relaxed environment where they can learn to express themselves in their own literary voices.
As a college and high school English instructor, I have had the opportunity to teach and tutor students on many different levels. I have worked with those in need of remediation as well as students who are are in honors or advanced placement classes. I have successfully tutored several students who have attended ivy league and top tier schools ... read more

I tutored other classmates in Calc 1 to Calc 4 using easy memory tricks to remember formulas for Integration derivitatives of equations. I like working with students and believe I can provide a service that will help them with the math they will use in the real working force. I will work with a student for as long at takes until they understand the procedure and the way to approach problem solving.

My philosophy of teaching is a student-centered one. I believe students learn from each other and through experience. I see myself as a teacher that will act as a guide to students as they gain confidence in learning how to critically think working through their problems on their own. I believe that all children can achieve to their full potential as they follow the educational path of individualism as well as cooperative learning. It is my hope that I will inspire and motivate my students to enjoy learning and teach them that the learning process can be fun at the same time.
I graduated from Marist College with my Bachelors in Psychology and Special Education in 2008. I have always had a strong passion for teaching students ranging with different abilities. Previous to my student teaching and observation requirements as an undergraduate student I was a mentor and tutor to middle ... read more
