I want to help students I work with as much as possible, and therefore welcome any suggestions from students and parents. I am easy to reach and will provide quick responses.

I have over of 30 years of progressive experience in tutoring young children in the elementary years of education in all subject matter areas. My specialty is literacy and reading, but I am also adept in teaching all of the math curricula as well. I also firmly believe that teaching organizational skills and proper research methodologies are very important for the classroom today--and every child needs these skills in order to excel in the classroom and survive. I am also a qualified art teacher in the NOVA area. I believe in tutoring so that the child receives feedback and fully understands his/her own limitations and how to overcome obstacles in class. Many children lack positivity in the methodology! I also believe that using art instruction helps children to learn in a more creative manner.

Through personal and professional experience, I have come to believe that fluency is most quickly achieved through immersion in a language (and instruction in only that language). However, accuracy can be developed and maintained more consistently when a student is able to compare his or her native tongue to the one which he or she is studying - as long as the student has a good understanding of the grammar and other basics of the native language. As a result, I believe in that constant exposure to a language, coupled with conceptual comparison to the native tongue, will foster the best combination of fluency and accuracy. I also believe that appreciation of the cultural and historical elements of a foreign language will encourage students in their studies and help them maintain enthusiasm when they meet a challenge. While studying Spanish at Messiah College, I completed my major cour

As a recent college graduate of Savannah College of Arts and Design, I have extensive experience with writing skills, leading and directing project based assignments and writing research papers, essays and critiques in my field. The varied classload I carried during my 4 years has more than prepared me for a tutoring position as I feel that all of my experiences with writing, psychology, various design and film communication art classes give me the skillset required to help students achieve their educational goals. I am a demonstrative teacher and leader. I believe in the theory of "model, action, and talk" style of presentation of concepts. My creative background lends itself well to keeping a student's initiative and inspiration to a high level so that they are actually motivated to perform at their best. My personality traits are that I am disciplined and a believer in seeking the t

Having been in school for 6 years post high school has taught me a lot about the educational system and the means to success. A proper education is very crucial in order to prevent a student from being misinformed and misguided. To prevent that, I help my students to be self-motivated and more aware of local and global events through newspapers. I believe everyone is different based on their backgrounds, therefore, they must be taught HOW to learn effectively. This is where I come in. I can identify what a student’s weakness is and allow them to learn SUCCESSFULLY! Having a B.S. in Microbiology from University of Maryland and having completed 2 years of medical school gives me a strong background in the sciences. For the past 7 years I worked for Certified Learning Center and had great experiences tutoring students of different backgrounds. Although science is my specialty, I have

I have always loved teaching. Since I was a young girl in high school my dream was to become a teacher. After completing my Bachelors in Biology I decided to further my education by doing a doctorate. this has allowed me to acquire writting and verbal skills. Presenting research data to audiences of various backgrounds has allowed me to be quite comfortable teaching or exposing. Also, during my graduate work I spent much time willingly tutoring college freshmen in subjects like general biology, cell biology, anatomy and physiology. I have worked with students helping them prepare for the MCATs and also with students looking to apply for graduate school To be an effective instructor, it is necessary to have a perfect environment; one that allows for interaction and collaboration between students and their instructor. Hence I believe that teaching should be comprised of two complementary

As a French native and a resident of the United States, I developed a profound interest in foreign languages and teaching French. My degree in Computer Science, mathematics and my subsequent experience in the field in France and Quebec, Canada enabled me develop my critical thinking abilities and writing research papers during my studies helped me with my grammatical skills. Since 2004 I have taught French (speaking, listening comprehension and reading comprehension as well as grammar) to individuals at different levels. My others specialities are Physics and biology. A dedicated, organized and professional yet flexible educator with several years experience in teaching French, I believe that motivating students is the most important factor for the teaching/learning experience. My experience tells me that if students are not actively participating in class, they are not learning. Theref

During lessons, I am patient, calm, well-spoken, but challenging. I continually ask my students questions and make sure the focus stays on them and their learning rather than myself. I find that the discovery approach works well in my classes and students are always willing to participate in fun games and other activities that allow them to find the answer on their own. The best teacher is one that is always willing to learn and wants to help the individual become a well-rounded person, not just someone who can always give the correct answer. Paulo Freire, the late Brazilian Sociologist, was not only one of the greatest thinkers of the century, but also a humble educator. He believed that there should be no set boundaries between student and teacher because all people have something to contribute. He also believed that one's education should be rooted in the one's reality. Thus a "stu

I believe educators, teachers, counselors, principals are the providers, directors, and managers of complex systems of care. In other words, they are the backbone of the educational industry. While working as an Assistant Director of Education, I have learned to be more effective as a teacher. I have been teaching for past seven years and I have taught all age groups and subjects like, English, Math, Sciences, test preps, etc. My degree in Biology has helped me in my analytical skills and communication ability. I love working with kids and it's my inner passion to teach. I have developed patience’s working with children and I like to teach as a mentor/friend. My main focus is students' needs and goals, and the willingness to explore their strengths. I believe that every child has the capability to learn and they just need a little guidance. I would love to be the reason a child wants to

I first decided to teach students to occupy my time but I then discovered what it feels like to help younger students overcome their academic difficulties. I believe that each child is capable to achieve a minimum of education level, sometimes all what it takes is a little bit of motivation and confidence that he or she needs to move forward and I think it's something that tutors can help students figure out and acquire. I consider myself having an outcome commitment with my students. My goal is to communicate what I have learnt. During my high school years I already had a particular interest in Accounting classes. In fact the high school diploma that I earned was in Accounting and Financial Management. When I reached the college level I decided to major in Economics, which was the broader continuation of my field in High School, this enabled me to gain some understanding in unknown area
