Reading Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Ridgewood, NJ

Other than having a lot of patience, I don't have a very specific style of teaching. Everyone learns in a different manner, so I try to take this into account on a case by case basis. Some students learn through repetition, some through writing, others through listening. I always try to make things as fun as possible and enjoy feedback. I recently graduated from Montclair State University in 2014 with a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration and a concentration in management. I have experience substitute teaching a wide variety of subjects at the elementary and high school level. I also have experience working with students with special needs such as ADD/ADHD, school phobia, and other behavioral issues. As a recent graduate still trying to plan a career path I look forward to hearing and working with you!

My teaching style is compassionate, and empathatic, and very detail oriented. As I have studied in Bank Street College of Education, I believe in allowing the student's potential to dictate where the student needs the most help. I have over fifteen years of experience in the financial field and can easily tutor and provide instructions on Series 7, 63, and Life Accident and Health Tax Preparation. I am also an expert in resume writing cover letters, and have written and published a variety of different poems in Literary Magazines as well as writing a memoir style novel.

I have been in the field of teaching languages for more than ten years now. Arabic is my specialty in both its written and oral forms. I have also taught English for both ESL and mainstream students. I currently teach Arabic at one of NJ's best academies.I am very organized and dedicated. I never had a problem with students or parents. In every tutoring job,I give myself 2-3 classes to determine whether the tutoring will be a success or not. If I feel that a certain tutoring job will not be successful for any reason, I do not continue with the tutoring.I need the money but will never continue a failing tutoring experience just for the money.

I can adjust my teaching style according to the preference of the student. I am a high school graduate and working towards completing my degree in college. I love children and enjoy helping out people to the best of my ability. I was in the top 5% of my graduating class in high school with all honors and AP courses. Although I haven't had an official job in tutoring, I have experience tutoring my younger siblings, especially in Math, English, and Spanish. I have a good grasp of concepts in these subject areas and have the ability to change my teaching style according to the student. Each person has a different way of learning and understanding. I can change my method of tutoring to match the student's preferred way of learning.

I have experience in tutoring elementary and middle school students. I found it to be very enjoyable and they did too! I do my very best to make sure your child has a good time while learning. It seems that when they are enjoying themselves they are more likely to remember what was taught. My methods of tutoring will depend on what learning style your child is most comfortable with. It is of great importance that your child builds confidence and the skills needed to move forward. I will make sure your child does not feel overwhelmed or stressed out with what I teach. By the way I teach, your child wont even realize they are being tutored! I ensure your child will improve in the subjects I tutor and have a blast while doing so! I look forward to hearing from you.

As far as experience goes, I've just spent four years as a professional writing major at Kutztown University. I don't have a teaching degree, but I do have experience working with children at Over the Rainbow Nursery School. I would be in classrooms of different age groups ranging from new-borns to 5-year-olds. I prefer one-on-one only because that's how I personally learn best, and in a one-on-one atmosphere it's easier to pinpoint what one particular child is having problems with.

In this position, I provide my students with a creative approach to learning, breaking down complicated concepts into simple, easy to learn lessons that students can understand. I modify lessons, maintaining interest among all levels of students; while incorporating behavior management. Students' needs must be addressed on an individual and varying basis. What works today, might not work tomorrow. One of my successes is sparking the interest and imaginations of students. As an educator, I have learned that managing the differences of students' abilities is key to successful learning. Showing students that there is enjoyment in a subject that may not have been of interest previously to them, is the true meaning of being an educator.

I do not have a teaching style as this implies that I or anyone can really teach another how to write. Writing is not taught in a way that science can be taught or grammar can be taught. Writing (and learning grammar and memorizing vocabulary lists are not learning how to write) is learned and my job -- as tutor or college composition instructor -- is to help students at all levels find their voice and style and indentify the challenges they face whenever they write. I have been teaching and tutoring writing in almost every genre -- from the creative prose to business correspondence and memoranda -- since 1998. I started out tutoring students in anthropology at Hunter College and then landed a teaching position at a business school where I taught business English. In 2007 I enrolled in an MFA program at The City College and a year later began teaching freshman composition courses to engi

Throughout my years of teaching, I have witnessed and helped assist in new and exciting educational program implementation in day-cares and school systems. With my real world and in class learning I have realized the importance children’s primary academic instruction plays in their growth and development. I find it fortunate that I have had wonderful opportunities to teach diverse groups of students, including those with learning disabilities, those who performed at grade level, and those who were exceptional. These opportunities have helped build my classroom management abilities and communication skills. My philosophy of education has been centered on differentiated instruction and the importance of individual learning styles and effective evaluative measurements.
