More About This Tutor...

I tend to employ a quiet but direct approach to learning. Q and A sessions begin each session. We review the homework and past experiences of the student. I encourage students to write down their concerns and mark the areas of confusion at the time these arise. That way the students don't forget to bring them to my attention. I like to break down large projects into smaller components. The success of the student is the primary goal. A feeling of accomplishment is a close second. I back step and reteach as necessary. Praise is given often. I enjoy the teaching experience and interaction with each student.
My background experience includes classroom teaching, tutoring, substitute teaching,ESL,Title I,and GED training. My classroom experiences included Pre-K to College students. It also included training nursing staff. In Pennsylvania, I hold undergrad degrees which focus mainly on m ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet do not become overwhelming. Since the beginning of the era in which the special education population has began being mainstreamed into regular education classrooms in most schools, I have developed a great practice of differentiated instruction. I also am aware that there are people who are a specific learning style as well as the people that are a combination of any two or three learning styles. That's who I teach for.
I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typic ... read more

My experience working with children is in the area of those with mental health issues, most of which have learning disabilities as well. I love my work and I love children. I believe that all children can learn when you consider what kind of learner they are. I believe that most children have to experience learning through many facets; hearing, touching, seeing and discovery. I also believe that children need to be empowered to learn so that through daily activity their confidence and self-esteem is cultivated, nurtured so that potential can be met and possibly exceeded. I strive to assist individuals to meet and exceed their potential, build confidence and empower people to be autonomous.
I entered college in my late twenties and have been involved in some aspect of learning ever since. I was able to complete my BA in Psychology and Religion as Cum Laude and my MA in Counsel ... read more

As per my view, every child has skills and weaknesses but in different areas. So we have to focus on the certain weak areas. Plus everyone prefers their own style to learn. So I prefer to teach with the student friendly way. All Children will definitely achieve their goals with proper direction and guidance with strong will and hard work.
I have graduated from Medical School in India after acing High School, was amongst top ten in state. As parents were teachers, I have interest in teaching since childhood. I helped students during my medical school in subjects like anatomy, microbiology, physiology, psychology and sciences. I have also improve my English proficiency by taking English and speech classes here in NJ. I have also helped students here in US with same subjects.

More About This Tutor...

In my undergraduate studies, I focused primarily on the student's use of imagination as it relates to literacy comprehension. While I have successfully completed credits in advanced mathematics and engineering, my passion is in English. I have scored consistently in the 90th+ percentile on standardized tests in the writing portions (Including the GRE), and have done exhaustive research for a local professor in preparation for a manuscript.
While I hold high standards for academics, I am a fervent believer in learning through meaning. Every lesson plan I have taught has been designed so that it doesn't "feel" like a lesson plan, but rather, has been an experience. I believe it is essential to create a learning environment that engages the student actively, and educates them not just in the subject matter, but holistically, socially, and humanistically.

I have been an educator for 23 years,as an elementary school teacher, and in special education at the secondary level. I have a master's degree in learning disabilities, and have worked on a Child Study Team for the past 14 years. I believe all children can learn if taught to their individual learning style. I have taught home instruction and tutored high school students in English, math, and science.I have a flexible work schedule.
As an educator I have the opportunity to help my students find their strengths, build on them, and guide them on their future path. This opportunity can also be a challenge. It becomes my responsibility to rise to the challenge and be the person they say was important in shaping their future. I want to be prepared to help students recognize their strengths and how those apply to a profession, how to prepare for the transition from school to the work ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe teaching others a skill or new information is a gift, to both myself and the student. When the light goes off in their head, and the "I got it!" look comes across their face, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I am very patient, and understand that each student learns at their own speed. Additionally, I know that each student is different, which will sometimes require a new teaching technique. I believe everyone can learn; sometimes it just takes the right teacher for the right student.
I was a teaching assistant for three of my four years at the University of Delaware. I taught courses, as well as tutored students and graded exams. Additionally, I have a great deal of experience in sciences and english, specifically biology and microbiology, as well as excellent grammar skills.

While studying Education at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA, I had a chance to teach in numerous settings ranging from private, religiously affiliated institutions to public institutions. Engaging students in both rural and urban settings, I witnessed firsthand the power of learning. Learning can inspire, motivate, and lift a student to embrace his or her full potential. Learning can expose all of the "good" despite the frightening uncertainty of everyday life. Learning can shift the direction of a human life. I believe every student should have an opportunity to learn and grow. By helping others discover the power of learning, I hope to grow as an individual throughout the process.
I have had an opportunity to study at two reputable universities in the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia area. Through this educational journey, I have received a BS in Secondary Education, BA in Engli ... read more

As a graduate student and as a professional researcher, I have the opportunity to teach as a graduate assistant and adjunct faculty. Over the years, as I have pursued my masters and doctorate level degrees, I have worked with students of all types to assist them in their writing skills in preparation for personal statements as well as for specific courses.
I would describe my teaching style as one that consistently attempts to meet the student at his or her current level of need, with the aim of continuously moving him or her toward the goal of competency in the subject area, particularly as it relates to the critical thinking skills needed to accomplish the task. Practice makes perferct; but, without the adequate thought processes needed to accomplish the task, any amount of practice is undermined.
