I was more of an instructor than a teacher. I was a day camp counselor at Solway House parent/child resort in Saugerties N.Y. I instructed kids how to swim, dive, play various sports and gave dancing lessons to the guests. As a high school student I tutored 7th and 8th graders in an after school community center. I was one of a few staff at the University of Connecticut to instruct graduates and staff in the use of the various electronic facilites available to them. I feel children are very self-aware and are very vulnerable to positive and negative feedback. Therefore, no matter how little progress is made, praise them. If no progerss is made or if an issue needs to re-addressed, praise them..."That was great, but let's try it this way!" I feel that you are positive, smiling, and they believe that you believe in them, 9 out of 10 kids will follow you!

I first began tutoring under the direction of Nancy Donohue-Berthiaume at Quinsigamond College. I turored in Introductory Accounting, basic and college level mathematics. In my Sophmore symester, I was presented with a challenge. A young man who was both Dislexic, and Mathlexic was failing basic mathematics. In less then 1/2 hour, I was able to help him go from failing grades to straight A's. Later, I tutored fellow students in Pre-Calculus while taking the course myself. I ended up with a 4.0 GPA in that class. Later, I was provisionally certified to teach in 7th & 8th grade english and mathematics and in recent years I have felt more and more, because of my desire to help other's I would like to persue tutoring if possible. I really enjoy tutoring students one on one better than teaching in the classroom, because of the one on one contact, because I have found it helps take the pressur

My teaching style is very simple and I believe it is effective. I have found that going through problems does not always help kids learn. I always try to tutor the basics and establish a plan for problem solving. The children need to know how to attach a problem not how to plug numbers into equations. While attending the University of Massachusetts at Lowell I work to help other students that were having difficulty understanding the material presented. I obtained a bachelor of science in Civil Engineering, with a concentration in Structural Analysis. The course work gave me a very strong understanding of Mathematics, and Physics. Also, the quantity of lab reports I have written has given me an advantage in writing non-technical reports along with technical reports. I have worked as a college math privately and through other companies.

As an undergraduate engineering student and tutor for engineering and other courses, I developed a strong background in the techniques and skills necessary in many levels of math, science, and technical writing. Additionally, the rigorous demands of engineering school have taught me the persistence, organizational ability, and other academic skills required of any tutor or student. My graduate study in special education, volunteer work, and experience as the brother of a child with special needs has given me a great deal of experience working with students with disabilities and knowledge of issues which they face in academic settings. During the school year, I work as a learning specialist for college students with learning disabilities. This has helped me to understand more about differences among students' learning styles and improved my ability to be an effective tutor for stude

Teaching is my passion. I love teaching and use various teaching styles. I believe that each student learns differenlty. I am very patient and easy going. I am a firm believer in teaching using manipulatives or hands-on activities. My goal is to accomodate to the students needs. All students are life long learners and need to be taught using different teaching styles to see what works best for them. I love helping my students succeed and acheive their goals.

I love teaching and working with those that want to learn and may be struggling or are trying to complete their tasks to be able to move forward. I am always looking for creative new ways to teach to all learning styles and to make learning fun and practical. I have worked with the disabled and elderly for years along with children so I have vast experience with different age groups. I am very friendly and approachable and an excellent researcher and networker so I if I don't know a way to solve a request I know how to find someone or someway to complete the task. I find all small steps as important as the large accomplishments. As a social worker and advocate for many years I have always used my skills as an instructor and mentor. Most recently I completed my Master's in Teaching and State of Connecticut Elementary education certification which has allowed me to pursue employment i

Each student requires a different approach to teaching. With this in mind, I prefer to sit one on one and work from the bottom up to try to figure out exactly where some of the issues may be. Once you better understand what it is the student isn't following, you must find a new approach to explaining the topic and reviewing it. I also believe the student must research answers on his or her own. The ability to memorize something is helpful, but it is more important to know how to find the answer or work through an answer. Often times students just memorize answers without understanding the buildup to the answer. While at Nichols College, I took a part time job at the local Boys & Girls club in Dudley Massachusetts. Here, I worked with children from a variety of backgrounds on their homework and various other projects especially mathematics in which I specialize in. Many of these ch

As a student of life I believe that the best thing we can do for our children is to teach them how to learn. With that particular tool in their toolbox, there is no limit to what they can accomplish. In school it led me to become valedictorian of my high school class and Phi Beta Kappa in college, and it has allowed my learning to continue throughout my adult life. If we want our children to reach their true potential, they need to learn how to learn. I have a BS in Chemistry, an MFS in Forensic Chemistry and a strong aptitude in math and computers. Early on in my career I spent 1 1/2 years as a substitute teacher in the areas of math and science, including several months as a long-term substitute in chemistry. For the last 20+ years I have been employed as a chemist/scientist/supervisor in both government and corporate settings. As a scientist I routinely mentored the chemists who
