A Little Bit About Me...

In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry.
I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosop ... read more

I like to keep a student well organized. This allows me to pinpoint exactly where the problems are so I can concentrate the time on the problem areas. Organization also ensure the student keeps up with the material in the class. I am available to help out with questions assigned in homework or classwork, but my objective is not to merely have the student complete an assignment, but rather understand the topic that was covered. I strive to have the student learn the material rather than just fact recall. I try to make the topics interesting to the student by relating the material to their interests.
As I entered college, I quickly was labeled a tutor by my friends. They would find me before exams so I could give them a crash course on what they needed to know before an exam. Little by little, I had a following of friends and acquaintances who were reliant on me to do well in ... read more

I graduated from King's College in Pennsylvania in May of 2002 with my BS in Chemistry. I decided to return to school for another semester to do my student teaching and become certified in secondary education. I spent twelve weeks teaching 10th through 12th grade students in Chemistry and eight weeks teaching Advanced Chemistry. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and look forward to one day having my own classroom and becoming a teacher and mentor to younger children. After graduating, I decided that I needed to gain some real life experience that I could apply and have students relate to before entering the classroom. So for the past 5 years I have worked in a variety of laboratory settings. Currently I am working as an Analytical Chemist for a Cosmetic / Pharmaceutical company on Long Island. I have tutored a few students over the past two years in Chemistry, Physics, and Math with gre ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Georgetown University graduate with a degree in government, I have extensive knowledge of various social sciences which I plan on taking to law school. In addition, I am a near-native speaker of Italian and am proficient in Spanish. I have a passion for both languages, and would love to be able to share that passion with students. I tutored students extensively throughout high school and currently tutor students in a variety of subjects.
I try to be as personable as possible with students in order to make the learning experience fun and engaging. Teaching is truly an art. In order to succeed, a teacher must not only know the material cold, but he must also be able to relate to his students in order for the material to sink in.

A Little Bit About Me...

I elected to be a stay at home mom after a successful career. I wanted a flexible work schedule and thought about tutoring. I found that I loved tutoring students ranging from elementary to college level. I found much satisfaction in students' improved grades and the mastery of the subject that I was able to impart. I strongly believe that education is the doorway to a successful career and tough subjects such as math and science can be mastered with the right approach.
I like to use the hands on approach. I find out what the weaknesses are of my students and address the topics by giving a general review. I present a problem for them to work out. After a few minutes, I ask them what they think is the best way to approach the problem. If they cannot come up with one, I then guide them through the appropriate thinking pattern in order for them to solve the problem. For me repetition ... read more

It is my belief that all students have the potential to learn. As a teacher, I am fully committed to the success of my students, all of my students. Children need to know that their teachers care about them. Once this trust has been established, education can begin. I like to take the time to get to know my students. If I can make learning relevant to the individual student, it will be much more effective. This means using material and content that interests the student, and finding out what motivates them to learn. In doing so, I can help my students be successful learners.
I have held several elementary level leave replacement positions, as well as a Part time reading position. I taught fifth grade in a NYC Public School for four years, and I presently work with preschoolers and toddlers on Long Island, with Bright Horizons. I have tutored students in readin ... read more
