More About This Tutor...

I'm patient, soft-spoken and fair, but enjoy pushing my students to challenge themselves.
I recently obtained my Masters in Secondary English Education. I currently substitute teach at the high school level, and have taught literacy to adults with developmental disabilities. I've written for newspapers and magazines, and enjoy writing fiction and reading in my spare time. I am looking to tutor this summer two to three days per week.

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated with my Masters in Secondary English Education from Rivier University. I taught literacy to adults with special needs for two years, and I've been working as a substitute teacher at a high school since January. With an undergraduate and graduate background in English, I have developed a proficient grasp of the English language. I am an avid reader and writer, and I love to help others discover that they can become strong readers and writers.

My teaching style is unique to each student's indivdual needs. I take time to recognize my students learning style and provide the need materials or teaching style based their needs. I prefer tutoring to working in a classroom because I can give each student the specialized one-on-one time they need to help not only keep them on track with their school's requirements, but also introduce them to better study habits that could help them excel in the classroom when they do return to school.
During my years attending UMass Dartmouth, I recieved my Bachelor's Degree in Sociology with a minor in Business Administration. But I also gained alot of experience working with children. I tutored elementary age students in the star program and college students at my campus job in the Unity House. I also was the coordinator for the New Bedford Speech Academy.

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent graduate of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth with a degree in English. I take pride in my ability to properly spell and use grammar efficiently. My experience writing reports and technical writing (grants and proposals) helped me come to the conclusion that people have a hard time expressing themselves. Thus, I decided to help people in their writing so they could explain how they were feeling, or just to get the great ideas they had in their minds down on paper. Using my creativity and skill for writing I have been able to use my knowledge and persuasion to write eloquently and convincingly.
Working with people has developed as a passion in my life. From an early age I have found myself looking for ways to improve the lives of people around me. I believe that everyone should have an equal chance to reach their academic potential no matter how far aw ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor of Art in History, predominantly American. I also pursued Engineering for my first year and plan to go back to College. I have completed through Calculus II and am also experienced in hands-on mechanical. I have limited tutoring experience, but I know I can listen and respond. Any experience came from helping others in classes during College.
I'm patient and listen to the student to see what they get and don't get about the premise of the lesson. Then we get to it. Careful reinforcement of the Correct method will ensure Remembrance and Results. Also, Lessons must be approached within the context of the Big Picture. Students need to realize that there are no pointless or forgettable sections. Basically, communication is key followed by practice, reinforcement, more practice. Learning can be at pace, but laziness and whining will not be tolerated.

A Little Bit About Me...

My passion as a teacher is working with children. I have a passion for education that I hope to show through my teaching and share with all of my students. I believe every student learns differently and has strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to get to know my student's leaning styles and help them develop their strengths and use those strengths to improve the areas that are more difficult for them. I believe in Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences and I use the intelligences as often as possible in my lesson plans. I believe that there are many ways to learn and some thing that works for one student might not work for all. Through my teaching style, I will help my student's have a passion for learning.
I have a unique resume of teaching experience. I have worked in a number of settings from pre-school to teaching adults. I have taught in public schools, privat ... read more

I am sure to build a strong relationship with my students, so they feel comfortable working with me. In return, I see children work hard and make huge gains both academically and socially. I expect a lot out of my students, so in order for them to work hard I have to make sure I make my lessons and activities exciting and engaging. It is important to celebrate each success with children, no matter how small, in order to make overall improvements. I am also a firm believer that parents should be partners in education and I always provide parents/guardians with updates on student progress, goals for future sessions, and useful activities or tools to reinforce student learning at home.
I am an outgoing and energetic teacher with dual certifications in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education (RI and MA). I am certified to teach Pre-K through 6th grade. I have 5 years of expe ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been a high school teacher of Latin and ancient Greek, for three school years, and I spent an additional school year as a high school librarian and study skills course teacher. I also have a year of college Latin instruction experience, and a year as a TA for an ancient history professor. Over the years, I have had at least three permanent clients as a tutor, working with ancient Greek, Latin, and German, and I have done other ad hoc tutoring and professional translation work.
I teach to a mastery learning approach appropriate for language instruction. I present the material first in accordance with the text presentation, and then drill and quiz to ascertain the level of comprehension over the next several days. I ask all students to answer sample questions, and I am looking to see who does not understand what, and why. When deficiencies are discovered, I represent mate ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Skill in school is often about finding a method that brings each student to the desired result. For instance, memorization may work well for certain students, while others require experience to cement the information, and still others may need to learn in lecture format. Another may be incapable of remembering facts and concepts unless they have read about it. Each student possesses the ability, if not the concentration, to achieve. Digging through the frustration and resistance is the key to unlocking the intelligence of each pupil. After this process is discovered and exercised in each student, real learning can take place at a previously impossible pace. This is a truly rewarding sequence of progression for students, parents, teachers, and tutors alike.

I love working with children of all ages. Children can learn very fast by talking, playing games and if properly taught they can remember in the long term. I am here to help children of all ages from english to math. I am very easy going, become a little kid with a child and am always smiley. I have a goods ways of explaining basic math, algebra, basic accounting and any business courses for older students and i can work around their way of thinking. I strive to make a difference in the people, as my position as a resident assistant allowed me to and as a law student wanted to make a difference. Because law didn't allow me to do so, teaching and working with kids helps me make a big difference.
As an undergraduate student I have worked as an Resident Assistant, where I was helping students all around campus. I have tutored and helped friends in the area of Accounting, Algebra, basi ... read more
