Learning Can be Easy and Fun!

I am very patient and I make sure the student thoroughly understands a topic before moving on. I motivate the student to succeed and teach good study skills and test taking skills. Normally, I use the student's textbooks and classroom materials during our lessons. For standardized tests, I use prep books, such as Princeton Review. Students do best when they are encouraged and receive positive feedback. My students are extremely satisfied after our lessons, and I receive wonderful feedback from children and adults I tutor.

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.

Teaching and School Counseling Services In One Place!

My style of education is to teach by modeling. Students need to see things in a step-by-step format with instructions, followed by an immediate example. I also provide sample argumentative essays for students who learn by seeing a complete model. My counseling style is to work with students, first by building a rapport and then using that as the foundation to get a feel for their college/career interests. I then look at their grades to help them build a custom transitional plan into early adulthood.
I have been a teacher for the last fifteen years. I teach social studies, but my specialization is teaching argumentative (college level) writing.I have done plenty of SAT prep and tutoring for students at the high school and college level. I am also a school counselor and can offer a vast array of services including FASFA, Naviance/Common Application and college/career counseling.

I am a Chartered Accountant and have passed the CPA exam. I have been working in the Finance sector for over 15 years. I have also had a stint in teaching while doing my certfication as a HighSchool Math teacher.I have also substitute taught for 3 years in various subject areas.
I am of the opinion that children should be given clues and lead on to discover answers to questions. In some areas I like them to memorize certain facts which will help them solve problems better. A combination of memorizing and deriving from basic known concepts will help a child solve any problem without having to sweat over it.

More About This Tutor...

My career in secondary education began in high school, when I was hired to tutor beginning Spanish students from local middle schools. As an undergraduate at Randolph-Macon College, I continued to tutor as a faculty-appointed employee of the college's Higgins Academic Center.

After graduation I accepted a position as a Spanish instructor at Trinity Episcopal School, an excellent independent secondary school in Richmond, VA. During my three years at Trinity, I taught Spanish at all levels (from beginning through Advanced Placement) and was mentored by truly inspiring foreign-language teachers. I returned to school to earn a Masters degree in Spanish Literature, and there I served as a Graduate Instructor of Spanish courses from beginning through advanced intermediate.

More About This Tutor...

(Re: one-on-one tutoring)--My teaching style is adapted to the learning style, level, and age of an individual student and is attuned to the sensitivities and personalities of those with whom I interact. First I identify the challenges of the subject to be taught and the ability and knowledge the student has already acquired. I choose the best resources to use and the best method of communicating about the subject with the student. If it's English, I'd work with them to practice using tools for reading comprehension (highlighting key passages, summarizing key concepts, predicting plot developments, relating their experiences to those of characters, etc.) and for writing (outlining, structuring material, etc.). In general, I create an enjoyable dynamic learning environment and use the benefits of rapport to accelerate the achievement of goals. I like to engage students' curiosity, i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy the challenge of teaching to each individual student's unique learning style. I try to assess the student's needs and interests before developing a customized learning plan. I believe learning is more meaningful when it is active and student-directed. I enjoy finding new and creative ways to teach material and greatly appreciate student feedback.
I have worked with students at the elementary and high school levels who came from diverse backgrounds and skill levels. I have extensive experience working with students to improve their reading, writing and test taking skills. Additionally I am able to assist students in research for various areas of study. I am currently working on my Masters in School Counseling so I have a great deal of current experience doing research, writing essays and helping students figure out how to achieve their goals.
