My comments on tutoring Geography : For three summers, I taught geography to gifted middle school students for Johns Hopkins.

Students being tutored one-on-one deserve lessons customized to their learning style. My sessions often incorporate some writing and topic discussion along with activities tailored to the student's interests, skill development needs and preferences.
This is my fourth year tutoring middle and high school students in History and Government. I also have professional classroom teaching experience and volunteer elementary school teaching experience. My students, primarily Global History, World History and European History students, have raised their class grades, passed the Regents exam by many points and earned high scores on the AP. I specialize in both content acquisition and essay writing skills. Some students have worked with me for half a year or more, others for a month or two before cumulative exams.

Teaching and School Counseling Services In One Place!

My style of education is to teach by modeling. Students need to see things in a step-by-step format with instructions, followed by an immediate example. I also provide sample argumentative essays for students who learn by seeing a complete model. My counseling style is to work with students, first by building a rapport and then using that as the foundation to get a feel for their college/career interests. I then look at their grades to help them build a custom transitional plan into early adulthood.
I have been a teacher for the last fifteen years. I teach social studies, but my specialization is teaching argumentative (college level) writing.I have done plenty of SAT prep and tutoring for students at the high school and college level. I am also a school counselor and can offer a vast array of services including FASFA, Naviance/Common Application and college/career counseling.

I'm a very bright high school senior with a rigorous AP schedule at New Britain High. I don't have any tutoring experience but I've worked for two years at a christian summer camp, so I have a lot of experience with children of all ages.

All Politics is Local

The Thrill of the Teacher teaching his material is his repetition in the work, further gaining mastery over what he is covering. Often times its the student who is teaching more to the teacher, than the teacher could ever teach to all his students. With that experience, however comes greater opportunities along the way.

A Little Bit About Me...

I view teaching as an opportunity to inspire and empower. As a teacher, one primary goal is to enhance student learning as a transformative experience. Ideally, I want students to feel personally changed and motivated. Learning is most likely to occur and be most effective when students are personally engaged with the material and perceive the subject matter to be directly relevant to their own lives. A student learns better when the approach most closely matches their learning style. Understanding the diversity of learning styles, abilities, and student experiences is imperative to enhancing this engagement. Learning is a complex process that is individual. As a teacher, I am attentive to this and work to be flexible, adapting my approaches according to the needs of learners.
As a certified elementary and special education teacher, I have ample experience working with students in ... read more

Prior to becoming certified in CT, I taught in a private school in Wellesley, MA. After working at Madison Middle School in Trumbull for 13 years, 6 as a full time language arts and reading teacher, I became semi-retired. I have continued tutoring students in Bridgeport, CT under the SES program. I also work for Fairfield University as a Supervisor of student teachers.

I love working with children in an educational setting, preferably with small groups. I believe that humor and positive feedback are key in helping students to achieve success. I also believe that is is as important to listen to children, as it is for them to listen to the teacher. It is by getting to know the student that a teacher is able to determine the specific needs and learning style. I am a very hard worker and will ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After graduating from the University of Connecticut with a BA in English, I went on to pursue my teaching certification through an internship program. During that time and shortly following, I had the opportunity to work as a teacher's assistant in grades 3 and 5, a long term substitute in grade 3, and a long term substitute in a sixth grade Language Arts class. From there, I was hired as a third grade teacher, which is what I currently teach. In addition, I have tutored students, in grades 2 through 6, in various areas including Reading, Writing, and Math.
My passion in life is working with children! I love teaching and having the opportunity to share knowledge with children. My experience teaching and tutoring has taught me a great deal about how to reach different students. All children are capable of learning; however, the manner in which children learn can differ.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught Social Studies, Language Arts at the middle school level. I taught studies strategies for studying, note taking, and writing. Our curriculum called for writing across all subjects. My studies came to me with a wide range of skill level, so that differention was part of my planning on a daily basis. My teaching style was provide students with challenges so they could experience success, no matter their ability.
My teaching style is to focus on the individual learning style of the student. I believe in Howard Gardners multiple intelligence theory and to that degree, I reach students through whichever modality they possess.
