My comments on tutoring GED : I'm an expert at helping students do well on standardized tests including GED.

I am patient and supportive, but persistent. Each student's mind works differently, and I work tirelessly to find the best way to present material to every child or adult. I have a varied background, not just in the academic world, and I feel I can find the right way to relate to each individual. I try to be somewhat informal, but I recognize the times when a little extra emphasis on the need to really concentrate is necessary.
I have logged over 5,000 hours of tutoring in the last four years. I have worked for a game company, which taught me how to approach tests as a contest between student and test-maker, and my extensive background as a writer gives me practical experience when it comes to teaching English and related subjects. My competence in math has always been obvious, as my 796 score (maximum 800) on the math SAT will attest. But most important: I love to teach any child ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have volunteered as a tutor since I was in high school, 15 years ago. I have tutored in America, France, and West Africa. I have worked as an English and French teacher in West Africa, Mexico, Japan, France and China. I am currently a doctoral student in my first year at Saybrook Graduate School and Research Center. I have done extensive reading, writing, and research throughout my career. In addition to professional experience, I believe I have the necessary discipline and demeanor in order to be an effective tutor.
In brief, my style could be described as "student-centered". When teaching language in particular, the most important thing is for the students to be able to use the skills they learn effectively, and to appreciate the subject's relevance to their lives. I try to convey the applicability of whatever I am teaching; of course this changes on based on the individual stu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

With normal class size groups... the goal is to provide a lesson with real educational content but to deliver it in a totally entertaining format... usually organizing the students into groups to a) provide support for the challenged and b) excitement for the total class as each group competes against the others. one-on-one teaching requires that the objective(s) be well established and then carefully focus on the individual student's best learning method, be it: verbal, written, reading, hands-on, or all of the above. In general a good teacher will be well planned and offers a delivery which teaches in concentrated bursts, with a brief break every 20 minutes.
Over 20 years of engineering experience, primarily, automated electronic test for manufacture of electronics. Over 2 years of Masters level engineering in bone density measurement, spectroscopy and neutron detecti ... read more

More About This Tutor...

With a Master of Education in Special Needs I acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to adapt instructional practices for diverse learners. Working in partnership with the child, parent(s), and school districts I developed meaningful learning activities addressing the specific academic needs of the child. I have tutored children and young adults whose abilities ranged from special needs to advanced placement. I have taught mathematics, writing, reading, social studies and science throughout elementary, middle school and high school.
Talking with students and analyzing their work samples determines their needs. I ask students to complete a "multiple intelligence" survey to determine their learning strengths. In designing delivery of services I incorporate specific strategies to complement their learning styles. For example, a visual/spatial learner would benefit from drawing pi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

While pursuing my Engineering degree at Roger Williams University, I noticed that there were not too many students from low income families attending college. That is why I joined Bridge to Success Program on January 2001. BTS was a program, sponsored by Roger Williams University at the time, which focused in assisting and encouraging students from low income families as well as minorities. I served as a mentor for five years in the program. I helped a number of students go into college and helped them improved their grades in math and science. Thorough my dedication and commitment, I was awarded the mentor of the year award in 2004. It has been by far one of the most honorable acknowledgments I have received.
I truly enjoy teaching. I am very easy going and I can make subjects easy to learn. Since I have an engineering background, I have the tendency to break complex problems into ... read more

I taught English Compostion for 10 years @ Johnson & Wales University; I taught Freshman Seminar classes for 4 years @ Bryant University; I taught @ Gibbs College for 3 years, and I currently teach English Composition, Reading and Speech for the Community College of RI. I am the director of the Academic Center for the Naval Preparatory School in Newport.
As an educator for the past 30 years,I have always encouraged students to be the best they can be. There is no such thing as a dumb child. They just need encouragement and nuturing to do their best. As E.E. Cummings once said "It takes courage to grow up and become who you are." Through my teaching and encouragement, I try to help students find that strength.

More About This Tutor...

While holding certification in three varied subjects, I feel that my strengths lie in teaching transferability of acquired skills. Having a bachelor degree in an educational field, an MBA, and 8 years of various "real world" experience that includes both retail and project management gives me an advantage when teaching. While in college and afterwards, I built a studio of music students that placed in the top two seats in Florida All-State bands, various regional student orchestras, and All-County bands. Though I am teaching math now, I still strive to instill the same passion in my students to achieve.
Essentially my teaching style is goal oriented. I motivate students to build skills that are not only applicable short-term, but well into the future as well. These concepts are reinforced by applying skills to realistic situations and problem solving. In this way, my students ... read more
