My goal is to assess a student's particular strengths as well as areas in which they can improve. I discern the unique learning style of individual clients to ensure and experience academic progress in a supportive, motivational environment. I have tutored students age three to adult who possess myriad learning differences. My areas of expertise include English and Language Arts, test preparation (ACT, SAT, ISEE, CAT, STAAR), writing for a variety of purposes, study skills, academic organizational skills, relaxation techniques, reading comprehension and fluency, vocabulary expansion, and academic activities that improve the student's ability to focus on tasks. I incorporate a multitude of learning tools as part of my differentiated approach including: computer technology, verbal, tactile, and visual exercises.

I use note-cards and mnemonics. I'm also fond of repetition (which will allow the student to obviously retain the information) and often do reviews at the end of a session to further examine what said student is struggling with. So far I have only tutored one student for a year or so. However, I am very knowledgeable in these subjects and hope to make the best of your child's tutoring experience. And despite my inexperience, I am more than capable of tutoring. I also am willing to respect the established rules and wishes that the student's caretakers have placed upon us meeting.

My teaching style is more the cooperative, reasonable method that prevents problems. Children need to have lots of praise and rewards for their work and efforts. It promotes growth and encouragement. My students will realize that they have to really pay attention to learn and get it. Their study skills will include organizing, focusing and stretching their thinking to higher levels. This way they can go as far as possible for them and reach the moon! I have a high level of qualifications and professionalism because of my extensive experience in Education, now over 25 years. My students were very important to me. I cared about them and their quality of Education. After becoming a Master Teacher, I was proud to represent the teachers of my state with Governor Cecil Andrus and statewide schoolboards. My students attained levels two to four and a half years above grade level on their

My passion is finding ways to help and motivate children to love learning and have fun while doing it. I also try to meet the needs of each individual student based on an assessment of their skills so I can plan lessons according to strengths and weaknesses. I have 20+ years experience as a teacher, substitute teacher, assistant teacher and tutor in the NY, FL, NH and CT. My most recent experience was teaching several different grades in all subjects in the same NYC School in the Bronx for almost 10 years. There was an after-school tutoring program at the school in the Bronx that consisted of small groups and I gave extra help in math and ELA. In NH, I tutored a girl going into fourth grade in math.

My teaching style is very relaxed and hands on. I believe that a positive relationship between the teacher and students is essential in order for the student to perform to the best of his/her ability. I set very high expectations for my students, consistently offer praise and encouragement, and empower students to take charge of his/her learning. I have been a certified Special Education teacher for 9 years and have taught reading, writing, and math to grades K-5. The population of students that I serve include students that have been identified with a specified learning disability, ADHD, and Autism. My instruction is delivered one on one or to a small group of students. My role as a Special Education teacher is to identify a student's strengths and areas of weakness and to close the educational gap. My experience enables me to easily pinpoint where a student is academically and to

I teach at a University full time. My experience ranges from traditional students, to special education students, and many non-traditional students (such as those adult students working full time and raising families). I enjoy making science accessible to everyone because the subject is truly fun! I prefer to teach with open dialogue. Feedback and discussion is one of the most solid methods for evaluating comprehension. If I see that subject comprehension is lacking or missing, it is my challenge to re-present the material for the student (as many times as it takes!).

Having studied several languages, I have an appreciation for how difficult English can be to some learners. The history of the language is replete with modifications of all kinds and some of these were mere affectations introduced for no reason other than preference or fancy! Nevertheless, phonics is an excellent tool that supports moving emergent readers towards mastery and fluency in reading and speech and a comprehensive course in phonics is of benefit to most young students. I am a warm, compassionate and supportive tutor who has somewhat open-ended expectations for my clients. This habit has enabled me to build relationships with clients that support successful interaction across a fairly long arc of time. I have found the process of tutoring to be enjoyable, have found the work of educating to be a significant means of contributing something to the world that is of value, and g
