My comments on tutoring Composition : Qualified by WyzAnt in this subject.

In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly reputed language school in Vienna ... read more

Tutoring in general is a cooperative teaching approach to help a student sort information or options toward successful knowledge, understanding or application of material. Helping a student adopt appropriate objectives in mastering learning material relies on good listening, exhange and study routines.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught elementary school in private and public settings, in both New York City and Florida. I taught high school English and Global Studies in New York city. I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students. I have also helped prepare adult students for the TABE, GED, and similar tests.
I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.

If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

My motto is if at all possible, I want to make learning fun. When that's impossible, let's get it over with quickly, so we can get back to the fun part. I'm a lifelong learner, so I practice what I preach.
Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent thro ... read more

To Help Your Child Succeed At Advancing In English Studies

Hands-on. We all learn more when we experience new things, and get to try them ourselves. Children are more engaged when there is something for the them to do to interact with the materials provided.
I was an elementary education major for 2.5 years before following my specific passion to writing and literature in my Junior year to finish up school. I graduated with a 3.35 QPA from Slippery Rock University in May of 2015! I have completed reading instructional courses in K-6th elementary education as well as courses in literature and reading assessment. I also have experience working with many high-and-low-incidence disabilities such as children who are deaf or blind, have Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorders, or Aspberger's disorders as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for systems and teaching others how to not be intimidated when learning new things. I feel that I can teach anything that I know. From teaching my grandmother how to write at the time that I was learning how to write, I have taught many people throughout my life. I am naturally a good teacher in that I can quickly assess where the student is at then I can also quickly assess how much I believe they can learn in one session. Also I am skilled in knowing how to approach a student depending on his age and background.
When it comes to learning I have always been a very curious person and that is what helps me to learn. I took a logic test at a college job fair and was recruited to work for one of the largest insurance companies in the nation with one of the largest legacy systems, written in COBOL. I learned to read code and to test code and became more proficient and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

With a degree in Special Education and a Masters in Education I have learned about how children learn best. I have a Florida Teacher's License for teaching ESE (Exceptional Students Education), Spanish, Elementary Education, and other subjects. I taught in the Ocala public school system. I have terrific math skills and have taught all core courses to ESE students. I have helped older students prepare for their GED exam as well. Currently I teach Spanish online.
I believe with the right supports all children can learn. I have tutored students with special needs. My goal is to help the child build on their strengths and believe they can improve on their weaknesses. My teaching style is to set objectives that challenge students and support them by building on what they already know. I am extremely patient and professional and well liked by my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the best way to teach is by learning alongside the student. Through my previous tutoring experience, I have found that the most successful sessions are a result of first understanding the student's learning style. Once an understanding of the learning style is established, the tutoring sessions are catered to fit each student's personal needs and learning goals. In doing this, I am constantly learning new ways to tutor while at the same time teaching the student in a way that will provide them with the greatest benefits.
As an aspiring writer, I hold a strong love for words in all forms. I enjoy writing them, reading them, speaking them, and sharing my love for them with others. My love for words helped me to earn a BA in Communication Studies while minoring in Journalism. In addition to utilizing these skills through extra-cirricular coursework and freelance writing ... read more

Not only do I love to teach and help students learn, I also enjoy helping students develop an appreciation for learning in general. The most gratifying experience while teaching is the look on a student's face, after hours of confusion, after they reach an understanding of the concept. The environment that I believe works the best is one that allows the student to have fun while learning; which creates a more positive environment for future learning. I remember my experiences with teachers that not only instructed lessons, but also brought fun and enjoyment to the experience. I try to follow in their footsteps, and lead other students to a similar appreciation.
During the completion of my Bachelor's degree in Psychology I had the opportunity to work with the Maricopa College District, as well as the No Child Left Behind Program. While working with the Maricopa College District I as ... read more

In 1976 I left the blue-collar world and returned to college, strongly motivated to learn. In 1980 I acquired a BA in Geography (3.81 gpa in my major, 3.53 overall), with a minor degree in Environmental Geology (3.6 gpa). During my last three years of undergraduate study I was the departmental tutor in Physical, Cultural and Economic Geography. Awarded a teaching assistantship at the University of Maryland Graduate School (College Park) in 1980, I taught undergraduate courses in Geography for two years. In 1990 I was a substitute teacher (grades 7-9) for the NYC Board of Education. For the last ten years I have successfully worked with students on a variety of undergraduate and graduate-level projects in many subjects, including Political Science, Psychology, and Education. I am confident that with my background I will be able to successfully tutor students in many subjects, including ba ... read more

I have developed many creative materials to accomodate all children to be able to understand what they are learning. I have a compassion for all children as I do believe they want to learn but sometimes have fear of learning. I have always believed that children can learn in many ways and it takes a creative, intelligent mind to accomplish their learning needs. I have always put the child or adult first in the learning process.
I have taught K-3rd grade in reading, math, writing and speech skills for 5 years as a teacher's assistant. I have also taught English as a second language to adults who were incarcerated for 5 years. My English and communications are excellent and I am very creative when teaching the above subjects. I use a number of materials to compensate for books that sometimes children do not comprehend. I have also tutored grade school students when I lived in ... read more
