More About This Tutor...

I am extremely passionate about the education of our youth, and I believe that it is the foundation of a growing society. I have worked with children in urban high schools and juvenile facilities, and I have thus learned to appreciate the difference that a dedicated teacher can make in an environment that does not lend itself to learning and growth. In addition, I have worked with adults who did not have the opportunity to receive a quality education in their youth. Their willingness and excitement to learn was inspiring. I believe it there is an innate desire to learn and acquire knowledge in most children and adults. I am a person who was privileged to receive a quality education, and this provided me with the skills to engage people in learning, attempt to understand their needs, and push them to meet their potential.
I recently received my Bachelors Degree from the Universit ... read more

All students are capable of learning, it is our responsibility as educators to discover what motivates our students and how our students learn. I love tutoring because you are able to tailor lessons to fit one specific child's needs and interests. I am a strict teacher who belives that given the right balance of stability and engagement, all students can achieve success! Working in a high needs school district in the city of Hampton, I learned that structure and compassion are two vital ingredients for engaged learning. I am energetic, fun, effective and organized. It is these attributes that keep students engaged in my interactive teaching style.
I am a highly qualified special education teacher, with an endorsement in language arts. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree from Michigan State University in 2008. My experience with tutoring and teaching learning disabled and other stud ... read more

It is difficult for me to say which age of student I love working with because each student I have worked with from age 6 - 25 has been very rewarding. I am very patient and work diligently to find creative strategies and approaches to teaching. I believe that all children should be encouraged to meet their potential by gentle encouragement and opportunities for self-discovery.
As an educator, I have had many opportunities to work with various different students. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education and a master's degree in teaching with an emphasis in learning disabilities. I have taught secondary special education for 5 years, focusing on math, reading, and writing. I have also privately tutored students of all ages and abilities in math, reading, and writing. I have excellent success in helping students improve their s ... read more

As a graduate of a Big Ten school, and a current master’s level student, I have had many focuses in school that I can teach in the tutoring setting. I also currently work in education as a tutor and a substitute teacher, sometimes as a child care worker. Subjects: political science, biology, math through pre-calculus, accounting, English, computer technology, and a few more. I have honed my writing and research skills through my experience in my master’s program, and through a year working as a full time staff writer for a health and wellness company. My teaching experience and family have aided me in developing a teaching style that appeals to the four different types of student learners.
My teaching methods vary depending upon the subject matter and the pupil’s preferences. I enjoy getting to know students and customizing their learning experience to the methods that will best se ... read more

My teaching style is simply to provide an environment that is conducive to learning – one which supports collaboration and teamwork, student-centricity, personalization, fun, and humor. I am committed to providing the highest quality education for my students. Each individual learns differently, and I have come to accept that I can't entirely please each and every individual in the classroom (especially when I have over 200 students). I have also come to accept that not every student will "like me". As an instructor, it is my role to present information in a way so students learn. I have realized that students learn, not because they think I am "cool", but rather because the information was presented to accommodate each and every learning style. Therefore, I try to use a variety of different mediums (e.g., visual, audio, etc.) when presenting the class material.
