My comments on tutoring Entrance Exams : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of tutoring experience. I have taught several test-preparation courses. I have helped many students to achieve well on standardized tests. I am patient and understanding. I have a math/science background and have been teaching basic skills (reading, writing, oral communication) for 30 years.

I have been teaching college (History, Philosophy, Ethics, writing, reading, social studies) since the early 1980's. I have taught in New York (LaGuardia Community College), Connectiuct (Three Rivers Community College), New Jersey (Mercer County Community College) and Pennsylvania (Bucks County and Montgomery County Community Colleges and ). I have also taught online (University of Phoenix, DeVry University and The Iowa Consortium of Community Colleges). I have tutored many college and high school students, as well as grammar school students. I have taught several test preparation classes and helped many students to raise their test scores.
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 incl ... read more

Learning is a lifelong process!

My very first year of teaching was at the Lehigh Valley Performing Arts High School, and I also taught for two years at Northern Lehigh High School. Currently, I am resigned and staying home, but looking to work part time. I have experience teaching grades 7-12 and working with all types of students. The classes I've taught range from Honors English to a class which targeted students struggling to gain proficiency in English related PSSA skills.
Every student is unique and benefits from an individualized instruction. My style is business casual; I am firm yet warm and encouraging with students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I received a B.S. Degree in Education with a teaching certificate in English-Communication, at the secondary level. I am also qualified to instruct younger children. My graduate work focused on elementary students.My experience with young children, was learning to identify reading disabilities, administering standardized reading tests, to assess the instructional and readiness levels of individual students. I have taught in a wide array of classroom settings and as a private tutor.
I strive to encourage open discussions, and small group activities so students can move around the room, but only as it relates to the task at hand. I enjoy watching their enthusiasm when I give a "fun" learning activity. I am pleasant, very patient and lively!

More About This Tutor...

Mathematics is a joy and privilege to teach students because of its extensive relationship to the world and connection to everyday life. I believe that you need to relate to a child’s prior knowledge in order to gain an understanding of future material. I value a child’s discovery of a topic and act as a guide in my students learning. I challenge my students to think critically but also acknowledge their need to learn differently. One benefit of mathematics is the ability to teach a topic various ways so that all children can succeed. Using manipulative, visuals and technology my students can master material in a way that is meaningful to their learning style.
I have always been intrigued by mathematics especially it’s connection and explanations for various fields of science. By teaching my students the foundations of math I have grown to enjoy and appreciate it even more. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typically working with what are known as the "at risk" students. However, I eventually found my way into the classroom as It was noticed that I had a natural ability to balance teaching in the content area and managing behaviors. I loved math all of my life and even found myself tutoring fellow college classmates. I have been teaching math now for 6 years and have been the lead math teacher in every school that I taught for.
My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet ... read more

Read More About Raffaele G...

While studying Education at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA, I had a chance to teach in numerous settings ranging from private, religiously affiliated institutions to public institutions. Engaging students in both rural and urban settings, I witnessed firsthand the power of learning. Learning can inspire, motivate, and lift a student to embrace his or her full potential. Learning can expose all of the "good" despite the frightening uncertainty of everyday life. Learning can shift the direction of a human life. I believe every student should have an opportunity to learn and grow. By helping others discover the power of learning, I hope to grow as an individual throughout the process.
I have had an opportunity to study at two reputable universities in the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia area. Through this educational journey, I have received a BS in Secondary Education, BA in Engli ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy meeting new students who have trouble learning math and seeing themselves light up after a session or two of tutoring. I believe in the discovery method of learning and questioning to have the student aware of where he/she is having difficulty with math. Then we work from there and the needs of the student so the student can succeed. With the help of strategies all students can succeed in math and I strive to help each one do the best of his/her ability. I believe I do make a difference in the lives of the students I tutor.
I have just retired from teaching math at the middle school level and an adjunct math instructor at the college level for 35 years. I have tutored the past 5 years of my career privately and with students with disabilities at Centenary College, Hackettstown, NJ. With all this experience and knowledge about teaching various levels, a professor at Berk ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Coming from a family of educators, I have always had a desire to teach and instruct. My areas of study and concentration have provided me with the skills that are characteristic of advanced readers and writers. My eleven years of teaching experience have kept me sharp and current with the newest best practices in the classroom. I have taken this and transferred it to the students that I tutor.
Simply put, I firmly believe that all children can learn and achieve at a high level. Student achievement correlates directly with expectation. Unfortunately, for many students expectations are low. High expectations lead to high achievements. As a teacher, it is my job to find ways to motivate my students to learn. This can be accomplished in many different ways. Differentiated instruction is the first step; students learn in differently and at their own pace. I need to be aware of ... read more
