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 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 of different related problems is the key to success.
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 ... read more

My teaching style is based around differentiating instruction to meet student's individual learning style. I enjoy teaching and once I am invovled with a student I dedicate myself to learning which, teaching, studying and learning strategies are best for each individual student. I am also a believer that a tutor/teacher need to constantly research to keep up with strategies and new scientific findings thst can be introduced into lesson plans and tutoring sessions. A teacher should be dedicated and knowledgeable and should teach with a caring touch and unbiased opinions. I strive to help students during these formidable years of adolescent growth so that they can learn how to learn and carry it into a successful academic career.

I love teaching and working with children. I have helped many cousins and nieces and nephews with schoolwork or the SATs so I have plenty of tutoring experience in addition to my teaching experience. My goal is to help students meet their educational goals and hopefully get into college and become a great success.

More About This Tutor...

I started around 2005 tutoring for the departments of chemistry and math in Queensborough Community College, from the basic levels in organic chemistry 2 and calculus. I earned my Associate degree in science from Queensborough Community College and finished my Bachelor Degree in Stonybrook University. At Stonybrook University also tutor chemistry and math. During the summer 2006, I had the entire department of chemistry tutoring under my guide. My experience comes from teaching my own classes and from interacting with my students.
My style is open to discussion. I like to ask questions to the student about the knowledge they have and based on that, apply my knowledge to build a strong base to be used as a core to solve more problems. I live the one on one interaction but also love the group discussion. I used to tutor an entire classroom during summer for 6 hours straight.

I hold a master's degree in language education and certification as a public school teacher in two states, New York and New Jersey. In the last three years I have taught and tutored German, English, English as a Second Language, and standardized test preparation (including SAT, ACT, GRE, and TOEFL) in a variety of settings, including a public high school, a private Saturday school for heritage speakers of German, a small music college/tutoring center, and at the large state university SUNY Stony Brook.

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.
