My comments on tutoring Guitar : Playing guitar over 12 years

I have been living and playing professional football for two years in the Paris region. I coach/play with an entirely French team/league so French fluency is a must in order to communicate effectively with my teams. I've coached Les Cougars de St Ouen l'Aumone to a championship as their offensive coordinator. I also am the quarterback, offensive coordinator, and team captain for the cougars elite team. I have extensive experience tutoring my teammates and players in English. I am now looking to work as an English professor in Paris.
My teaching style is relaxed, fun, but effective. I use different methods to teach such as reading articles, listening to music, watching movies, etc. learning a foreign language requires immersion into the culture and using many resources.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a fairly informal teaching style, and I tend to use a lot of humor. I try to connect the information I am trying to convey to what the student already knows, rather than simply provide facts to be learned by rote and regurgitated on an exam.
After college I worked for three years.During that time I applied and received a scholarship to the Medical College of Pennsylvania, from which I graduated in 1994. I completed an Internal Medicine Residency at MCP in 1997. After residency I worked as an attending physician in Pittsburgh from 1997 to 2000, and in Berlin, Maryland, from 2001 to 2004. In January, 2004, my wife became severely ill, and I decided to take time off to raise my two young daughters. I taught at the Dawn Training Center in Wilmington, DE, from May to October, 2006. I also have extensive experience teaching junior housestaff and Nurse Practitioner trainees.

A Little Bit About Me...

I work with all children, teaching in elementary and secondary education.I believe all children can learn. Depending on their abilities, I would use different teaching strategies such as collaborative teaching, technology to encourage learning.
Currently, I work as a substitute teacher, teaching math and science at a local public school district. I hold a bachelor's degree in biology and associate's degree in computer network engineering, which provides me with a strong background in math and science. This can be demonstrated by my scores in the praxis exams. My passion is to teach and to help my students succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching students who are eager to improve their skills. I am very good at easing the anxiety that many students feel when faced with unsatisfactory grades while presenting information in a simple and approachable tone. I believe that most academic problems are the result of a breakdown in the fundamental skill set that students are expected to have. As a result, I find that working slowly and methodically to evaluate each necessary skill is the best approach.
In 2009, I graduated from Wesleyan University with two bachelors degrees, a BA in Government and a BA in Music. In combining two drastically different fields of study, I was able to develop a level of versatility and perspective that will serve me quite well as a tutor. One unifying theme in both disciplines is the necessity of strong reading and writing skills, which I believe I will be particularly adept in teaching ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate student at Immaculata University, I have learned what it means to be an effective teacher. I will be student-teaching 11th and 12th grade English at Renaissance Academy in the fall. I have also been hired as the head men's golf coach at Valley Forge Christian College and have worked with kids of all ages at my church for the past 3 years. Additionally, I have worked as a band coach at the Rock & Roll After School in Phoenixville.
I firmly believe in affirming the gifts/talents in each child that I come in contact with. I believe that by working hard and being creative that I can inspire your child to achieve his/her goals. I am assertive, creative and encouraging. My number one goal is to get to know who I am working with and focus on their strengths.

In the four years since I graduated I have tutored many students in these subjects.
I love teaching people about music and I believe that with good training and studying people can accomplish their goals. I am a knowledgeable teacher and I am very good at explaining concepts in a way that people can understand them. I am very patient and always strive to make my students succeed.
