My comments on tutoring Testing Strategies : I am NYS certified in Literacy (grades 5-12) and English (grades 7-12), although I have several years of experience with children as young as Kindergarten.

As an educator, I view myself not as a provider of knowledge, but rather as a facilitator. I aim to encourage the critical thinking that will serve students not only in the classroom, but throughout their lives. In my experience, I have become well-versed in student-centered curriculum development programs, including Understanding by Design, which I have employed extensively in my own lesson planning with gratifying results. I have also been trained in, and have been implementing, the new Common Core Standards for over a year. My student teaching and observations in New York City public schools as well as my current tenured position in an inner city school district have provided me with valuable exposure to diverse classroom atmospheres and have allowed me to develop effective classroom management strategies. This range of both academic and practical classroom experience lends a bala ... read more

Lets make learning fun!

I have experience in tutoring elementary and middle school students. I found it to be very enjoyable and they did too! I do my very best to make sure your child has a good time while learning. It seems that when they are enjoying themselves they are more likely to remember what was taught. My methods of tutoring will depend on what learning style your child is most comfortable with. It is of great importance that your child builds confidence and the skills needed to move forward. I will make sure your child does not feel overwhelmed or stressed out with what I teach. By the way I teach, your child wont even realize they are being tutored! I ensure your child will improve in the subjects I tutor and have a blast while doing so! I look forward to hearing from you.

I love teaching and currently am employed as a 7th grade Language Arts teacher. I have earned two bachelor degrees: a BS in Elementary Education and a BS in Spanish. Although I have taught Spanish K-8, I am not presently certified but am more than able to tutor in this subject. Additionally, within the past two years, I went back to school in order to become Highly Qualified to teach Middle School Language Arts and Mathematics.
I am committed to the individual success of each student. Also, I am easy going, patient, and sincerely enjoy working with children. I can honestly say I love my job! I provide my students many opportunities to grow as learners and individuals, teaching both the curriculum and life skills. I use many different learning approaches, such as kinesthetic, visual, and auditory, in order to make lessons interesting and interactive. I especially enjoy the i ... read more

As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics.
I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor.

As a graduate from Lebanon Valley College, I was driven to achieve and maintain high levels of education excellence in my field of study. I earned a BA in English as well as obtaining my teaching certification in Secondary English. I previously worked at an alternative school in Philadelphia, PA where I taught seventh grade English to emotionally and mentally disturbed adolescents. Along with being a certified teacher I am trained in corrective reading and math.
I believe children of all levels and skills can continually learn and achieve mastery in their course of studies. Every child learns in different modalities so it is my philosophy to adapt my pedagogy for each individual. The one constant that remains between all students is that education is fun. I strive to engage students with humor and real-life experience as to encourage educational excellence. I will work relentlessly ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in developing a rapport with students, treating them as equals in the learning process. I have skills and knowledge that students can access, freely providing them with the information they need to be successful. I am organized, prepared and set clear objectives in terms of what I hope to accomplish. I try to keep a sense of humor and make learning a fun activity.
I went through a rigorous program in English Composition where I received my MA. Prior to that, I had several years of teaching experience as both a high school/middle school English and Social Studies. Later I taught 4 years of College English. Then I spent a couple of more years teaching high school English, in addition to spending one year tutoring students in SAT/Regents instruction. My particular passion is helping students generate, organize, develop, revise and edit their writing.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate from Brigham Young University (BYU) with two degrees, I am motivated to excel in education and/or business. My first degree was a BA in History Teaching. I have taught in the classroom and worked in other education positions for 8 years. Recently, I completed an MBA at the Marriott School of Management on the campus of BYU. I have worked for Wal-Mart and Toys "R" Us and I completed a project for Marriot International.
I believe most people can learn if they have a desire. Also, I believe most people can teach something they have mastered if they have a sincere desire. I love to impart what I know to others so they can make progress in their life.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a teacher I have learned that every child has different need. I am able to differentiate my instruction to those needs. My teaching style provides stability and structure. I set attainable goals with my children and don't move on until a concept is mastered. I create an energetic and creative learning environment that brings out the best in my students.
I am presently working on a masters for elementary and special education. I have earned a bachelor degree in Sociology. I am currently teaching in the Fairview school district. I work as a resource room teacher for third grade and kindergarten. My primary focus is language arts, reading and math. I work closely with the principal, director of special services and students case managers and classroom teachers. I have experience with autistic children and ABA.

More About This Tutor...

I have always treasured working with children. I found my interest when I started babysitting at age 11. I quickly found that my time spent having fun and entertaining children was something I truly enjoyed. As a educator, I understand that all students learn differently. I work at getting to know all my students on a individual level. This helps to keep student’s interests in mind and incorporate it into what we are currently learning. Paying attention to all learning styles in the classroom helps me to see what some students learn easy and also what some students have difficulty learning. By doing so I am able to meet with students and work on their area of difficulty and try to help them understand the information in the way that is best possible for them to learn.
As a second year teacher, I have much experience working with children of various ages. I have taught Kindergarten, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is not my job; it is my passion. I frequently work as a tutor during the school year and during my summers because I love helping students succeed. For the past three years, I have taught ICS classes, in which I had to develop and tailor my lesson plans for students with learning disabilities. I feel that I am uniquely suited to working with students because I believe that given the right educational tools, all students can succeed, no matter what obstacles may lay before them. I have the patience, experience, and dedication to help any student of any academic level or age succeed in learning.
I am currently a high school English teacher, which requires strong reading, writing, and communication skills. As such, I work with all levels of students, from those with learning disabilities to those in honors classes. This teaching experience has provided me with insights ... read more
