Academic and Test Prep.

My experience tutoring so many subjects and exams has given me insight that lets me simplify even the most complex material. That's why I believe myself to be such an effective tutor. So whether it's SAT Math or ACT English or GMAT Argument Analysis or GRE Verbal or MCAT Physics or college level chemistry, I break the material down into simpler concepts. Experience also allows me to be flexible. Your algebra teacher pushed the test back and you'd rather review solubility rules and titration from today's chemistry lab? No worries. Suddenly remember halfway through a physics problem that you also have a pre-calc quiz tomorrow and want to spend the rest of our session reviewing for that? You got it.

More About This Tutor...

As an English educator, I firmly believe that the more experience you acquire, the more effective your teaching style becomes. Since I not only teach language arts in a middle school setting, but also accept positions which require me to tutor students of all ages (elementary to college level students), I feel my experiences have allowed me to become very flexible and adaptable to any teaching situation and any student's need. Also, because of these experiences, I am more confident in the content area I teach, but I am still open to learning new ways to present material.
My teaching style is fair, but firm. I am a strict believer in following directions and organization as a basis for any subject taught, and I strive to help my students understand this process as they go through their educational careers. My role is not just as educator, I am a director in my student's study sk ... read more

My major gpa was a 3.4 and I graduated from Rutgers College in New Brunwick which when I attended was the toughest school to get into within the Rutgers University system.

A Little Bit About Me...

I began tutoring K through 5th graders at an elementary school. Many of my students only spoke Spanish at home. From then, I continued tutoring elementary school students with a wide range of abilities. A few of my students were gifted, and we worked on sharpening their already existing skills. Many of my students struggled in a specific area, and we were able to incorporate general study skills into our lessons. I was able to help all of my students with book reports and other projects that were more time consuming than regular homework assignments. Throughout college and law school I refined my own studying habits. I believe I can pass my study skills onto my students and help them focus, manage their time, learn and succeed.
Since 2000, I have tutored students of all levels in a variety of subjects. During my undergraduate studies, I earned a BA in communication (public relat ... read more

It began as a volunteer project, and slowly developed over time into part time work through college and medical school.

A Little Bit About Me...

My curiosity to understand systems and solve complex problems drove me to major in Computer & Information Science and minor in Mathematics. Due to my approach to presenting materials/work in a simplified way for my audience, my teacher recommended me as a math tutor in my sophomore year. Throughout my last two years in college, I tutored almost all level of undergraduate mathematics, physics, and entry level statistics. After graduation, I was accepted in the Philadelphia Teaching Fellow. I taught in Philadelphia School District both in the middle and high school levels mathematics. My diverse experience has enabled me to work with students at various academic levels and social circumstances. My students tagged me “Mr. O. makes it simple”.
During my tenure in the classroom, I justified that all students can learn and perform above average if given the appropriate environment, and t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined.

A Little Bit About Me...

Student teaching in an urban area outside of Philadelphia really showed me how much teachers are valued and needed. Currently, I am teaching in an urban district with Math specialization. I taught 8th grade Math and Algebra I for 5 years and currently teach 7th grade Math. During the years as a teacher, I have competed in yearly district wide themed Math Fair projects that have all been rated "Exemplary" by a team of judges. Also, I have preped a team of students in competing in a yearly district wide Algebra Olympics which is a stiff competition with 28 schools and only 3 of them being Middle Schools. Our team has successfully placed in the top 3 the past 3 years. I love teaching math, and teach children how to love it too!
I believe that teaching is a challenge and everyday that I step foot in my classroom is a new challenge that awaits me. In positive motivational ways, ... read more

I understand the importance of being prepared each day by extensive and careful planning of content material. I will present information, determine my students' progress and help overcome difficulties through additional instruction or practice. I realize that each child is unique and not everyone learns in the same way. A strategy in motivating a student to learn is to capture interest in the subject matter. A teacher may capitalize on the value of curiosity and exploration. Also, allow students to see the relevance of their learning.
I wanted to be a teacher since I was a small child. The very first day I began teaching I knew it was the right choice for me. My proficiency in subject matter and my skill as a teacher will help me address the needs of my students. I have more than fifteen years teaching experience at the elementary level and four years at the high sch ... read more
