My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I teach reading (communication skills) as a College Professor and I have written articles, such as "An Introduction to Computer Literacy", for reading textbooks. I have helped many students to learn to read faster and with more comprehension. I am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects!

I am a 6th grade teacher at a public school in NJ. I have over 20 years of teaching experience in all elementary and middle school subjects. I offer tutoring in grades 3 - 8 for both remediation and enrichment. I'm also experienced with preparing adults for the teaching certification and nursing school exams. Tutoring sessions are held at my local public library or on Zoom (your preference). I am available after school hours as well as on the weekends, and during school breaks.
As a classroom teacher, I enjoy engaging students in the learning process. Private tutoring offers a customized approach to your child's education. My methodology is both fun and effective, and I develop lessons specifically for your child's individual needs. I aim to provide my students with the confidence and intellectual fortitude necessary for them to be successful in all that they do.

Tell me-I forget, teach me-I remember, involve me-I LEARN

I am a very positive, high energy person and am constantly finding ways to positively reinforce good behavior as well as work ethic. I will always find ways to keep my students engaged in learning. I often try to imbed my students current interests into the material we are learning. I teach very hands on in an effort to offer students a variety of ways to develop an understanding for the content being presented. I will model and give various examples for students to help make personal/real life connections with the content they are learning. I also like to provide students with a lot of visuals to help provide connections with the content.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : My students have all showed reading comprehension gains on standardized reading tests.

My teaching style depends on your learning style, but basically I believe in individualized instruction, offering guidance and lots of real-world examples, teaching students skills that will help them become autonomous or self-reliant and confident. I attempt to accommodate my students as much as possible and answer all questions that they may have.
