My teaching style is unique to each student's indivdual needs. I take time to recognize my students learning style and provide the need materials or teaching style based their needs. I prefer tutoring to working in a classroom because I can give each student the specialized one-on-one time they need to help not only keep them on track with their school's requirements, but also introduce them to better study habits that could help them excel in the classroom when they do return to school.
During my years attending UMass Dartmouth, I recieved my Bachelor's Degree in Sociology with a minor in Business Administration. But I also gained alot of experience working with children. I tutored elementary age students in the star program and college students at my campus job in the Unity House. I also was the coordinator for the New Bedford Speech Academy. This program taught students fro ... read more

Because I've worked with students who have various learning differences, I have a vast array of teaching strategies. What works for one child doesn't always work for another. I encourage auditory learners to always read the instructions back to me. It helps if they can explain the material as if they were teaching the subject. Visual learns tend to respond to charts, graphs, note-taking, powerpoint- anything containing shapes and color. Tactile learners have sensory needs. If at all possible, this type of learner should be given a "hands-on" task to help them assimilate the material. I believe that my patience and relaxed nature builds confidence and trust in each student. All children can be motivated to learn, because all children want to succeed in life.
As an educator, I have 10 years experience in public education for grades k-12. While my main focus has been in the field of S ... read more

After graduating from Haverford College with a double major in physics and astronomy, I worked for three years as an astrophysics researcher at NASA and Harvard University. In 2000, I became a teacher and a tutor. Since that time, I have taught children of all ages and adults in a wide variety of subjects. From 2002-2003, I designed and taught my own courses in physics and Calculus at the Academy at Charlemont. From 2004-2006, I completed a two year graduate program in physics education at the University of California, Berkeley. I gathered extensive experience student teaching at urban schools in the Bay Area and participated in two research groups. For my Master's thesis, I developed a curriculum to teach modern physics at the high school level using computer technology and hands-on, inquiry-based laboratory activities. Since the fall of 2006, I have been working in public schools in Bo ... read more

I believe that every student should have a unique path, with no two students having the same path to musical fulfillment. Each student of mine has their lessons individually tailored to their needs. I will even write exercises for my students to emphasize a certain skill I wish them to possess. The foundation for musical production is an individual journey with two main aspects: dedication (practice) and musicianship (the love of music). The goal of private instruction is more than helping the student cultivate their skills on their chosen instrument - it is also to help the student's love of music grow so that this love will last a lifetime.
As a Trombonist with Conservatory training, I am able to privately instruct beginning to intermediate brass instrumentalists of all ages. I am also able to instruct my students in Music Theory, Fixed-Do Solfege, Music History, and Ear Training ... read more

As a recent graduate of Berklee College of Music, I have been teaching and performing music prolifically for the last 5 years. I have worked with 15-20 students weekly, as a Tutor at Berklee, helping them complete their coursework to the best of their abilities. I have also had significant experience working with children between 6 to 15 years of age as a Teachers' Assistant. I helped children understand their assignments, reviewed homework and provided feedback to parents. Also, as a private guitar instructor and music teacher for the last 4 years, I have been giving lessons in Traditional Harmony, Jazz Harmony, Sight-Reading, Music Theory, Arranging and Composition as well as Guitar Lessons.

I worked also with Après la classe (“after classroom”) – 16, rue Commines BP 3003 75121 Paris Cedex 3 – as a tutor from November 1999 to January 2000 and had three pupils: a little girl of 6 years old; we did a lot of reading, a teenager of 13 years old (her sister); we repeated her History and a student of 20 years old that was studying to be a midwife and had bad marks in French literature: I tried to make her love to read but I think that today, I would do better: I would give her some “tricks” to succeed: how to read a text, what “turns” to look for, how to call them (those parts), what for, what do they support, and so on...
If a child, an adult or a teenager doesn't like you, it will be difficult (impossible?) to have him (her) learn from you. Unless you are very strong and I am "nice": I don't like to be rude. So I would need to be appreciated in order to teach. That is why ... read more

Although I believe in some degree of structure, I am very flexible in my teaching style. Every student is different - I work with each one individually to determine their goals and then develop an appropriate, unique program. Children learn best by actively participating in the material. I try to engage them as much as possible, whether it be with a lively discussion about music history, practicing and performing a piece of music until we are both satisfied with the result, or hearing and speaking French instead of simply memorizing the grammatical rules of the language.
Having just graduated last year (May, '09) from Tufts University with a Bachelor's degree in music, I have an extensive, solid knowledge of both music theory and music history. Also, as a piano player myself, I spent my last year at Tufts working with the Community Music Program, giving piano lessons to classes of ... read more

After graduating Magna Cum Laude at Plymouth State University in 2003, I was very driven to find a career in my field. I am passionate about teaching and learning. Because of this, I found a job working at Sylvan Learning Center in Concord NH. I worked hard for Sylvan, functioning as a teacher and test administrator. After five months I received a promotion to Instruction Coordinator/Assistant Director. This position includes teaching, being in charge of the instructor s and instruction floor. I am in charge of updating each students program and managing their programs and materials used on the teaching floor. Also, I prep director/parent meeting materials, meet with parents and am in charge of scheduling for both parents and teachers.
My teaching style functions around the fact that I am passionate about learning, which finds its way into my teaching style. I feel that every stud ... read more

I have recently finished my Master's program in piano performance. I am an active teacher as well as a performer in the Boston area. Though primarily trained as a classical musician, I am a versatile pianist and have various experiences playing for and directing musical productions and cabaret concerts. I have also been studying voice for the past 6 years and have participated in numerous opera workshops and vocal ensembles. As an undergraduate at Wellesley College, I majored in art history and have extensive research, writing, and analytical skills. With my liberal arts and musical background, I feel confident in tutoring students in English, history, mathematics, physics and needless to say, the arts.
I think one of the most important qualities for a teacher is to have a radiant enthusiasm for the subject you are teaching. After all, how can you get the students excited to lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching and working with children has been a love of mine for quite some time now. I feel all student's have the ability to learn but at a pace and level that is comfortable to them. My teaching style reflects my experience working with developmentally delayed students such as those on the Autism Spectrum. I provide a technique which is based on visual learning because I feel when material is drawn out or color coded, children will better grasp it and hold on to it longer. Children love pictures, stories, and colors and what better way to learn then having a little fun too.
After graduating with a bachelor's degree in psychology in 2005 I went on to work as a Special Education aid at the middle school level. I was responsible for a ten year old girl with Asperger's Syndrome, which required me to monitor her throughout the day as well as modify each lesson given in each subject. ... read more

I believe that all children in this country have a right to a world class education. I also believe that education is a partnership between the teachers, parents and students but, understand that due to economic and social conditions not all parents are as active in their child education. I have tutored children in Reading and Math and I have often been told that I try to make learning as easy as possible by relating the topics being taught to topics that the students encounter in there every day lives
I have been working with children as a baseball coach and softball umpire for over 25 years and often parents have told me that I must be a teacher as I worked so well with children. Five years ago I decided to change careers from management and go into education. I went back to school and completed a masters program in elementary education with a 3.8 G.P.A. I am certified to teach i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for knowledge, and have tutored high school and college students in the area of History, reading, and writing composition. I love teaching, and watching the student progress and excel!
My teaching style is more along the lines of the Montessori system. Given the freedom and much direction from the tutor, the student will often "discover" the essence of the lesson. In discovering the essence of the lesson, the student will take ownership. In taking ownership, the student in turn will develop pride, self worth, and a thirst for more knowledge and more successes.
