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.

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.
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.

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.
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 ... read more

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.

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.
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 am a life long learner and model that for my students. Assessing the academic strengths and areas to work on for each child is a strength of mine. I believe that teaching needs to encompass the whole child; the cognitive, emotional, social, and academic needs for each student must be addressed and nurtured. Every student can learn. The teacher is the "guide on the side" who draws out the best in her students. I strive to be that facilitator to learning for all of the childrn with whom I work.
I have been a professional educator for 26 years. I began by teaching at the Early Childhood level as a preschool teacher and music/drama/movement specialist for seventeen years. For the past nine years I have worked as an Elementary School Teacher with regular and special ed. students.
