A Little Bit About Me...

I taught and tutored ESL two years before entering law school. I hae taught college classes as an adjunct and later FT professor at Penn College for 25 years. I currently serve as Career Outreach Coordinator for HACC-Lebanon Campus. I have tutored many students, particularly in areas such as writing essays. I also served as a reader for the SAT Writing section, so I am familiar with what they are seeking. I am very proficient in grammar and structure.
My teaching style with students of all ages is to facilitate their learning as opposed to simply feeding them what I feel is the best response. Students learning is maximized when they can take ownership of and pride in their work. I am very patient. Recognizing that all students learn differently, I seek to ascertain their learning styles and then adjust my tutoring style to that learning style.

Never,never, never, never ever give up.

I have a student-centered teaching style. That means I see at what level the student is and meet him/her at that level. Then we together move up to where he/she needs to be.
I have taught for many years in all levels of secondary school, alternative schools, and tutoring centers.I eat, sleep, and drink tutoring as I tutor every day during the school year and do lots of research to help my kids in whatever academic subject is causing them difficulty. I began my teaching career for the first five years as a high school English teacher and taught regular college prep English courses.The next five years I taught English at the middle school level.Next, I got married and resigned from teaching when our first child was born. For the next twenty!!years, I raised four children and tutored kids sporadically. After all the kids had entered school, I began substituting in our school dis ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children of all ages and skill levels. I feel that each child requires their own learning style and pace. I am a very patient and understanding person, as well as persistent.

I believe that it takes the right individual to help a student achieve success and find the right path in life. I strive to bring out the best i can in each child both in academics and in their lives.

I truly enjoy teaching. It is life-long passion. I have spent my eleven teaching years working with 9-12 grade students, and I have loved every moment. I am patient and easy going. I do not mind trying to think of many different ways to explain a topic. In my classroom, I have created an environment where all my students feel safe and are not afraid to ask questions and actively participate in the learning process. I believe all children can be successful when they are given access to the tools they posess within themselves.
My undergradute years at Kutztown University have truly prepared me to be an educator. I earned a BS in education with a specialization in English. This degree has given me a great "bag of educational tricks." In other words, I am well versed in different teaching strategies for all learning styles. I have taught all genres of literature, as well as, wr ... read more

I began working as a Water Safety Instructor when I was 16 and taught swimming to people age 3 to age 76. I worked as a Teacher's Assistant at West Virginia university and taught my own section of a one credit course required of all freshmen students while working on a BA in English with a concentration in Creative Writing. While working on my MA in English Literature with a Certificate in Folklore at George Mason university, I worked as a substitute teacher and then was hired as a full time middle school English teacher. I worked as a middle school English teacher until April 2010.
I have a passion for working individually with students to find their personal learning styles so that they can succeed and excel academically. I encourage students to think through a problem and find a solution that works for their individual abilities and plays to their strengths. I believe learn ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After several years of coaching and working with children I have learned that my true life calling is to teach children and young adults. I am easy going and friendly and have learned how to quickly build rapport with students. I believe that I can make a difference in children's lives, especially when it comes to education.
After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Geneva College, I spent time developing my skills with working with children and young adults as a soccer coach. My first experience in the educational field was working as a paraprofessional at a private school for children with autism. I continued my work in education working as a caseworker with my primary focus being truancy and juvenile probation. I am currently in the process of enrolling for a Master's of Education degree which will enable me to teach history at a high school level. My educational skills are especial ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. As an undergraduate, I participated in a Writing Fellowship, which allowed me to meet with students to work on their writing. Through this individualized tutoring style, I developed an appreciation for working one-on-one with students and peers, and began to develop a highly personal, creative style of tutoring. Over the course of my teaching experience, I have found that students learn best when they are comfortable yet appropriately challenged. It is my goal to distinguish the learning style of each individual student that I work with and from there, develop a plan to meet their goals.
I am currently back in the Reading area after completing two years with Teach For America on Chicago's Southside. While there, I taught 9th Grade English/Test Prep and 6th Grade writing, which I loved! Two years ago, I graduated from Barnar ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I tend to employ a quiet but direct approach to learning. Q and A sessions begin each session. We review the homework and past experiences of the student. I encourage students to write down their concerns and mark the areas of confusion at the time these arise. That way the students don't forget to bring them to my attention. I like to break down large projects into smaller components. The success of the student is the primary goal. A feeling of accomplishment is a close second. I back step and reteach as necessary. Praise is given often. I enjoy the teaching experience and interaction with each student.
My background experience includes classroom teaching, tutoring, substitute teaching,ESL,Title I,and GED training. My classroom experiences included Pre-K to College students. It also included training nursing staff. In Pennsylvania, I hold undergrad degrees which focus mainly on m ... read more

I have been teaching and counseling special education students for 10 years. While earning my teaching degree, I was employed for 3 years as a paraprofessional and therapeutic staff support specialist. The students I tutored and counseled ranged in age from 9 to 21 years old. For the past 7 years I have been employed part time at an private alternative education school as the special education teacher. The students are in 7th through 12th grade, and they are diagnosed with a need for emotional support. I also work each afternoon as a home school teacher. My student’s exceptionality is Asberger’s Syndrome. I have been tutoring in the home for 7 years.
My work as a special education teacher requires an ability to teach students having a wide range of exceptionalities. I am dedicated to maintain high expectations for each student,and I understand each student’s education program needs ... read more

I have enjoyed each experience I have had with teaching, beginning with an informal position as a study group leader in the Genetics course I completed at Penn State University. While working on my MS at the University of Tennessee, I taught lecture and outdoor laboratory sessions for the Ornithology course, which included about 30 students. As the coordinator of the Conservation Science Internship Program at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary, I am responsible for much of the training of 5-11 interns at one time. The Sanctuary hosts interns from all over the world including 26 interns (age range: 17-42) from 24 countries in my time as coordinator. I also teach two 1-credit courses per year as an instructor with Cedar Crest College in Allentown, PA.
My teaching style changes with my perception of a student's needs. My goal is to show students the path by which they can come to answers themsel ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have become very adept at determining what level each student is at and tailoring my teaching style to suit the students that I am working with. In a class of over 20, I was able to reach each student with modified lessons and assignments. In the case of individual tutoring, I move at a rate that challenges the student while giving them ample opportunities to feel successful. I enjoy encouraging students to work to their best ability and am excellent at finding ways to motivate students who are stuck, bored, or find the topic too challenging.
I have tutored at the middle, high school, and college levels since my first year of college in 2004. Since then, I have worked as a paraeducator for the Special Education Dept. of an elementary school where I worked with first and second graders. For my student teaching experience, I was an intern for a full year at a city middle school ... read more

I have trained students in a laboratory, restaurant and in the home. I graduated from college with honors and have succeeded in statistics, algebra 2, calculus 1, biology 1, chemistry 1, English literature, professional writing, civics, sketching/painting and classical guitar
It's imperative to listen and understand a students challenges. Reviewing their previous work and giving a current test is a good indicator of the situation. I believe in practice and examples as the clearest path to success. I don't hand deliver answers and I make the process towards answers engaging. I make sure the time and place are conducive to active and non-distractive learning. I relay the importance and relevance of the material. I recap previous lessons and try to integrate them into current assignments. I always value and respect people and expect the same of my students.

Children learn in different ways. No one teaching style will work for every student. My teaching style revolves around the needs of the student. I love to help determine what methods will work best for each individual. I have an extremely laid-back personality, and my wife will tell you that I am very patient. I do not believe in failure, and will do whatever it takes to help my students succeed.
I have always been driven by a desire to help others succeed in subject areas that I love. Shortly after college, I began a volunteer-driven, grant-funded literacy tutoring program in two elementary schools. I have an earned Bachelor's degree in communication arts with a minor in English. I have two full years of teaching experience, and I am currently working on obtaining my PA teacher's certification in secondary language arts.

More About This Tutor...

My experience comes from a variety of places which accounts for my adaptability. I obtained an associates degree in Business Administration and went on to use that to get some experience in the business sector. I earned my Bachelors degree in Studio Arts and went on to get my Masters in Elementary Education. Since then I have used both my real world and my academic experience to teach students as both a classroom teacher and tutor. I have taught in the classroom to levels from Kindergarten through 3rd grade, and 7th grade as well. Additionally, in the past 2 years I have taught and tutored in test preparation for the SAT. In the 7 years I have now taught, it has become natural for me to assess and teach each student the best way for them.
I believe teaching should be an evolving, natural thing that constantly takes into account all the strengths and weaknesses presented, so that ... read more
