A Little Bit About Me...

I am very proud of my positive approach style of tutoring and believe that praise for every effort made is essential. My students receive incentives as they progress through their learning objectives. I promise to use several techniques to help you learn; such as games, art, cooking, scavenger hunts, play and much more. We will not be sitting at the table every session just filling in worksheets. Learning will be a fun process and I will be learning along with you as I learn more about you.
Hello - I am Debbie. I love to teach reading, vocabulary words, spelling, writing and study skills. I am a published author and a freelance writer. For nearly 2 decades I have mentored and tutored a diverse group of learners of all ages (kindergarten through adult). I am very passionate about sharing my excitement, enjoyment and skills in reading and writing, (including all related subjects) so ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I teach reading (communication skills) as a College Professor and I have written articles, such as "An Introduction to Computer Literacy", for reading textbooks. I have helped many students to learn to read faster and with more comprehension. I am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects!

I am a 6th grade teacher at a public school in NJ. I have over 20 years of teaching experience in all elementary and middle school subjects. I offer tutoring in grades 3 - 8 for both remediation and enrichment. I'm also experienced with preparing adults for the teaching certification and nursing school exams. Tutoring sessions are held at my local public library or on Zoom (your preference). I am available after school hours as well as on the weekends, and during school breaks.
As a classroom teacher, I enjoy engaging students in the learning process. Private tutoring offers a customized approach to your child's education. My methodology is both fun and effective, and I develop lessons specifically for your child's individual needs. I aim to provide my students with the confidence and intellectual fortitude necessary for them to be successful in all that they do.

More About This Tutor...

I am great with teaching anything within the literary field because I have gone through college and have learned how to analyze each concept to my greatest ability. Through obtaining my bachelors, we had to complete dozens of workshops until we had a perfect piece of writing and this helped a lot with my ability to teach others the typical way to write, analyze and read.

Experienced English Professor and Creative Writer

My philosophy of teaching is best articulated by the famous quote by Michelanglo --" I am still learning." I try to relate to my students that, although I may have a little more knowledge and experience, we are all, hopefully, continuously seeking knowledge about ourselves and the world. My role as a teacher is more one of a fellow journeyman than an 'expert.' I believe that if you are passionate about what you teach and enthusiastic about the teaching process, students respond. I love the written word in all its manifestations --its beauty, its flexibility and its power to connect and communicate. I teach that writing is not an art reserved for the few but an intrinsic part of being human. We are story-tellers by nature, and if given the opportunity, safety, guidance and skills, anyone can write well. Regarding my approach to teaching composition, I employ a thematic-based st ... read more

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects!

Currently I have been tutoring a boy with autism in reading and math. He is now in the fourth grade. Through my course work at Saint Joseph's University I have worked and taught in several schools in the Philadelphia area. I mostly work with students who are in grades third, forth, and fifth grade. Some of my strongest areas to teach are reading and math. I focus mainly on developing reading comprehension while helping the reader visual the scenes in the book.
