Individual & Group Tutoring. Project-Based Enrichment

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

My teaching style varies depending on the learning style of the student. I strive to make every chance to ensure your child receives the best opportunity to learn and absorb all of the information. I believe that teaching should be tailored by the student. In saying that, I am patient and have a clear way of communicating that children and young adults seem to get the most out of what I am teaching.

I love kids and I'm definitely looking forward to the time when I will have some of my own. I firmly believe in the value of education and hope to help convey that to our youth. I am an extremely understanding, patient, positive, and honest person. I am always willing to help someone in need, especially children, and I would love to have the opportunity to help educate our next generation. I know that for many children, one-on-one tutoring sessions can be more constructive than a classroom full of noisy distractions. Any child can become as successful as they want with help and encouragement in the right areas. I am determined to provide that help and encouragement to our students.
I have attended private schools for my entire educational career except for the last few months of high school. I was raised to believe that education is one of the most important things one can a ... read more

I rely heavily on Socratic questioning, to strengthen the students own thinking; my goal is for him/her to not need me. I use symbol and concept imagery language to ensure the student is not simply repeating, but seeing and understanding. Learning, especially at the lower levels, need not be boring, and I enjoy teaching through games, and in counter culture environments such as reading on bean bags or under a tree. I am flexible and creative.
For five years I taught swimming lessons. While swimming isnotan academic subject, this experience taught me the essentials of teaching. I worked with a large range of ages, from six months to sixty years. While in college I was a tutor/editor in the writing center all three years. Upon graduation I took two part time jobs tutoring English at elementary and secondary levels, at Knowledge Points of Tampa Bay and Lindamood- Bell learning process ... read more

I subscribe to a comprehensive overview initially to provide a basic structural outline of course content and criteria for learning goals. Students can then "fill in" this overview outline as new content is introduced, with open discussion and query to gain additional insights. Daily affirmation of progress with focused discussion addressing areas of needing improvement to keep engaged with consistent monitoring. Assessments should be brief with subsequent feedback soon after testing. Keeping within the overview outline while working each course section will serve to assist in learning comprehension and retention while developing a long term knowledge of the overall course curriculum.
At Miami Dade College ADA services, I tutored learning disabled college students in areas of algebra, social sciences, biology, English writing and comprehension for (2) years. As an administrative ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I prepare lesson plans for each lesson so that you as a parent will see what we are covering, and I constantly monitor the student for understanding. I strongly believe I can help your child not only do better in their studies, but also believe in their own abilities. Everyone can succeed with hard work and patience!
As an Ivy League graduate, I studied many different fields, including Economics, Sociology, Literature and Visual Art. I graduated as valedictorian of my high school class and scored a 2340/2400 on my SATs (800 Verbal, 800 Writing, 740 Math), as well as 800s on my French SAT II and Math IIC. I have tutored elementary, middle and high school students before, and greatly enjoy the challenge of communicating difficult material in accessible ways to students.

My professional career was in the design and development of computer-based software applications. I worked for nearly 30 years on various computer platforms, using several different languages. I also spent two years at Gateway Community College (New Haven, CT) as ad hoc instructor in Accounting, Management, Computer programming and system design. Part of my work experience included in-house presentations of new computer technology to both programmers and the end user community.
I started tutoring about three years ago and have found it very rewarding. My first assignment was as ESOL instructor with new citizens to the U.S. From that point on I have worked with High School and Middle School students in Math (Algebra, Geometry, Trig and basic math) in English (Grammar, Creative Writing, Reading Comprehension) and with some computer software (EXCEL, WORD). I believe in trying to ... read more

Through working for youth camps and volunteering I have gained a passion for teaching and encouraging youth to develop themselves into successful leaders, and it is something that I want to continue to do. With the experience I have gained empowering individuals while testing my own resolve under pressure in environmental summer camps as well as the experiences and the strong intellectual preparation of my undergraduate education. I am confident in my ability to improve the welfare of students by working towards strengthening their education and encouraging them to attain their greatest potential.

I have always had a passion for education, whether it is teaching youth or adults. I have gained about 3 additional years of teaching and now am working in a higher education setting. I hold a degree in special education which focused on the needs of learning disabled students, though required I still maintain the same knowledge of a licensed educator. Along with a degree in special education I own a degree in psychology. Cumulatively, this allows me to grasp a sense of the student’s feelings, emotions and expressions while learning, which in turn makes the session a lot more conducive. I feel I am able to connect with students through their strengths and weaknesses and use that to find the best strategy to ensure excellent learning.
I like to encourage and support my students. Many students don’t want to learn or do not feel they can succeed. When a student is positive and feels t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching children since I was a child myself, first in community settings, and then in church and later, in elementary and middle schools. I train teachers for church settings, and consult with public schools on issues of religion and diversity. I have tutored high school students for the Warren, NH school district, and subsituted in the Groton, CT schools. I was an adjunct instructor at Yale Divinity School. Having worked in neighborhoods as diverse as Roxbury, MA and Bal Harbour, FL, I can build rapport with children of many backgrounds and educational levels.
My teaching style varies with the needs of the learner. Having been trained to assess the primary modality of a learner (visual, oral/aural, kinesthetic or tactile), I can plan activities and approaches that will best use the student's strengths to overcome challenges. I think humor is very important in learning ... read more

I believe tutoring is best done in small goups, ranging anywhere from four to twelve students per class. Due to the large descrepancy of abilities between students, I believe it is important to modify lesson plans over the course of class. I always emphasize hands-on learning and real life examples as essential when learning new concepts. It can not be stressed enough the importance of flexibility when preparing for any class.
During my time as an undergraduate student at New York University I tutored a wide range of subjects to students with varying abilities. My experience ranges from tutoring reading skills to elementary school children through the America Reads program, to teaching illiterate and non-English speaking adults basic math and literacy skills under Literacy Partners, Inc., and helped prepare high school students for the reading and math sections of the SAT throu ... read more
