More About This Tutor...

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.

Experienced tutor available

My engaging style is evident at the start of each tutoring session. I show my students by personal example how to persevere and succeed in academics and in life. For the past 15 years, I have been a full-time tutor for students in grades 1-12. I am a graduate of Wesleyan University with an emphasis in physical and cultural anthropology and an ongoing fascination with the study of prehistoric human societies. Presently, I use my diverse experience as a tutor, copy editor and radio news broadcaster to make each tutoring session truly memorable for my students. My students quickly see how much I care for their progress and success. I consider tutoring to be much more than just a profession, but a way to provide others with needed assistance. It is this goal, when met, which provides me with my greatest satisfaction as an educator.

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.
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.

More About This Tutor...

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

More About This Tutor...

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

One of the things I take pride in is my ability to adapt to the many different learning styles of students. I believe strongly in educating the whole child and making his or her learning relevant to increase interest and retention levels. I also believe firmly that as educators, it is our job to help students realize the importance of education and achieving one's personal best, whatever that may be.

A Little Bit About Me...

I find careful lesson planning, addressing students' multiple intelligences and learning styles are the keys to a successful learning experience. Additionally, I continually look for ways in which I can bring the curriculum to life. For example, I often use performance in class, or ask students to create a storyboard or visual representation of the material we are discussing to enable the student to read the text closely and interpret its meaning. In teaching, I have seen the power of education. I have seen it empower students and make them feel they can accomplish their goals. My goal is always to help my students be the most successful they can be in the classroom and in their lives.

I find that students learn best when they are enjoying themselves, and so, I strive to make every student feel comfortable with my easy-going attitude and ready smile. I am patient, and a firm believer that the only "stupid" questions are the ones that are not asked. I have high expectations for my students because I know that they all have the potential and inherent ability to succeed, but that everyone needs a little extra help every now and then. For me, teaching is not simply a job, but a joy, and I look forward to going to work every day.
