Elementary Expert Offering Results

I am knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and experienced working with children with a variety of needs. I believe every child is an individual that should be treated with respect and understanding. My approach to teaching utilizes a child's interests, technology, engaging texts, and inquiry-based projects. Tutoring can be so much more than impersonal instruction.
Greetings! I'm a certified elementary educator with seven years of experience working as a basic skills teacher, test prep tutor, and for the last five years a third grade teacher. I am trained in STEM and reading and writing workshops. I pride myself on growing student's reading levels, writing, and critical thinking. I'm currently looking to tutor additional students and would be happy to assist with homework and projects, as well as develop study skills, test readiness, and fundamentals.

Phonics/Reading teacher certified in the Montessori Method

I'm a certified Montessori teacher having completed 500 hours supervised teaching. I've worked 11 years with children 1 1/2-3, and 3-6 teaching phonics,reading, and independence. My style is casual using objects and pictures to reinforce beginning sounds. Once the child has learned as few as three sounds, we are able to start reading words. I also babysit on an 'as needed' basis.

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined.

While attending High School, I was involved with the Special Education students as an aide, in addition to running a classroom of 2 and 3 year olds at a child care facility. I am currently a student (Senior) at Monmouth University in West Long Branch, NJ. The degree that I am striving for is English and Special Education (P-5), which will also certify me for general education. Over the course of four years that I have been at Monmouth University, I have observed and taught in many elementary schools ranging from grades Pre-K to 8th. The subjects that I love the most are Literacy and Mathematics.
I believe that all children are capable of learning; however it is important to remember that children have various learning styles. Some children may be auditory, textile or visual learners. My approach to teaching is a hands-on style where students can learn material through experience an ... read more

An education is the key to life. If a child is struggling and does not have the right guidance, they will end up hating school and everything it stands for. I love working with all children and feel that if I could touch the lives of children, there is no better reward. I am strict and fair and of course always give the upmost respect to all students. My goal is to help them achieve by doing all means possible. Every student learns in a different style and pace so I teach to their needs.
As I grew older, I knew I wanted to go back to school to teach. I raised a special-needs child and when he passed away, I felt I needed to be an advocate to teach children. I currently work in a behavioral school where I teach English and History. It is challenging everyday and it was I am meant to do. English and reading are the essence of school and there is no better feeling when a chil ... read more

Every child has the potential to learn. However, every child is different and therefore, learns differently. It is important for an educator to understand this. It is crucial for a teacher to get to know their students and be able to create lesson plans that are not only innovative, but that are accomodating to each of their students. As a teacher, I realize that we are not perfect and that sometimes, a lesson that we may feel is incredible, may not be so incredible to a student. Therefore, it is important to be flexible and willing to try again using a different technique in order to reach all of your students. I truley beleive that as long as I constantly remain flexible and willing to learn, my students will follow.
I am a person that loves and believes strongly in education. I have earned a BA in Political Science and followed with an MS in Criminal Science as well as an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I just graduated with a BA in Psychology and are two courses short of a minor in Spanish and Sociology. I've always been very strong in the English/Language Arts/Writing areas as well. I am currently a certified substitute teacher and also already do some elementary tutoring. Some of my previous tutoring experience include writing, some psychological statistics and some basic math/language skills.
I love to teach and help others in general. I always had difficulty when I was younger finding a tutor or some help in my studies that I could understand easily. I am a very patient and have a great sense of humor that come in handy during subjects of frustration. I believe if you can bring a child into their comfort zone and put the directions in the most simple fashion, a child can learn anything! I'd love to turn a subject they avoid into a subject to brag about...

More About This Tutor...

I have found that any student can learn. The key to a student's success is that education must be approached in the correct manner for that individual student. Not all students learn in the same fashion, and that must be considered in planning and implementing lessons. I believe that education needs to be approached in a fun way that coincides with the student's individual interests and learning styles. If the student loves sports, I would find innovative ways to include that in my tutoring so that he/she would stay focused and retain information. Furthermore, I firmly believe that education needs to be approached in a constructivist manner. A foundation needs to be established, upon which new skills can be built.
I have always been a very hardworking student. In high school, I graduated 15th in a class of 301 and took college level courses in Calculus, Chemistry, and Englis ... read more
