SAT - Verbal Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Otisville, NY

I am NYS certified in Literacy (grades 5-12) and English (grades 7-12), although I have several years of experience with children as young as Kindergarten. As an educator, I view myself not as a provider of knowledge, but rather as a facilitator. I aim to encourage the critical thinking that will serve students not only in the classroom, but throughout their lives. In my experience, I have become well-versed in student-centered curriculum development programs, including Understanding by Design, which I have employed extensively in my own lesson planning with gratifying results. I have also been trained in, and have been implementing, the new Common Core Standards for over a year. My student teaching and observations in New York City public schools as well as my current tenured position in an inner city school district have provided me with valuable exposure to diverse classroom atmos

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences. I have taught in the education field since 1999.

Scored a 710 on my own SATs. Comprehension and analysis will be reviewed. I will guide you through practice exams and weed out tough topics. My style is to give you time to work both in front of me and alongside me so I can assess what makes you a strong learner, meaning what best helps you remember a learning experience, and then we can use those skills wherever you have room for improvement. I have experience working in math and science as I do for work in a healthcare lab position. In all my schooling through college I tutored and studied in peer organizations, whether a French club in high school, biology society in college, or discussion of the material at hand. I have had some recent successful experiences tutoring in the community where I grew up (Hudson and Bergen County, NJ).

When helping a child, I show interest in the child and the child's immediate situation. I express warmth, responsiveness and appreciation. I nicely encourage a child for a given activity or one that I create. I am always upbeat, positive, and enthusiastic In the educational process, I form an idea of what the student is ready to learn, and form an idea of a learning task (discussion or practice) and of how I might introduce it. I am open to suggestions from the learner for this (or at any moment). Learning should be enjoyable.If a task proves not to be intrinsically stimulating, I present accomplishing it as a challenge. I praise efforts and seek to minimize frustration--I have a technique for this, to be used when necessary. Finally, the majority of time during any session is time during which the student is learning, with a minimum of my instructing. John Andrew Sonneborn, D.Min. (21

I will fit my teaching to the client. If a student learns with visuals, I will use visuals. If a student is an aural learner, I will cater to that side. I am very flexible and take direction very well. I have taken a year or more of each language I am qualified to tutor. The languages are Italian, French, German, Spanish and Latin. I also lived in Italy for a couple of months, in the Northern region. So I have real world experience speaking the language.

As a graduate from Lebanon Valley College, I was driven to achieve and maintain high levels of education excellence in my field of study. I earned a BA in English as well as obtaining my teaching certification in Secondary English. I previously worked at an alternative school in Philadelphia, PA where I taught seventh grade English to emotionally and mentally disturbed adolescents. Along with being a certified teacher I am trained in corrective reading and math. I believe children of all levels and skills can continually learn and achieve mastery in their course of studies. Every child learns in different modalities so it is my philosophy to adapt my pedagogy for each individual. The one constant that remains between all students is that education is fun. I strive to engage students with humor and real-life experience as to encourage educational excellence. I will work relentlessly to en
