Never,never, never, never ever give up.

I have a student-centered teaching style. That means I see at what level the student is and meet him/her at that level. Then we together move up to where he/she needs to be.
I have taught for many years in all levels of secondary school, alternative schools, and tutoring centers.I eat, sleep, and drink tutoring as I tutor every day during the school year and do lots of research to help my kids in whatever academic subject is causing them difficulty. I began my teaching career for the first five years as a high school English teacher and taught regular college prep English courses.The next five years I taught English at the middle school level.Next, I got married and resigned from teaching when our first child was born. For the next twenty!!years, I raised four children and tutored kids sporadically. After all the kids had entered school, I began substituting in our school dis ... read more

College Student Home for the Summer Looking to Tutor

A lot of my time is spent babysitting, and while doing that I have helped several of the kids out with homework. I also have spent a lot of time doing unpaid tutoring for classmates of mine at school. In the social sciences category that I have checked off, the specific areas that it includes are psychology and criminal justice.
Exploratory and encouraging. I encourage people and children to find answers to solve problems on their own, while giving them direction if needed.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated college with top honors. I worked as a Juvenile/Shelter Care Counselor at Berks County Youth Center where I worked with children of all ages and races. I am semi bi-lingual in Spanish. I took three years of Spanish courses in college. I supervised children in school and daily activities, but was also responsible for helping them complete all homework assignments, organize educational activities , help teach all school subjects, as well as tutor children in need of extra help in school. I have worked with children of all educational levels, especially since most of the children came from poverty stricken areas and were behind in their schooling,many with learning disabilities.
I enjoy working with children of all ages and skill levels. I feel that each child requires their own learning style and pace. I am a very patient and understanding person, as well as persistent. I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Any subject can be difficult to master. Each of us brings something different to learning. A tutor may enjoy spectacular success in the short term by applying behavior management principles. I believe that a student’s long- term interests are best served where trust and pleasure in individual differences are established. The teacher’s challenge, as I understand it, is to weave what fires the imagination of the student into the process. Building a birdhouse may, for example, be the portal to the world of geometry. When subject matter is personally meaningful, it is intrinsically interesting and learning is exciting. The inspired student develops lifelong competence.
I have worked as a helping professional for most of the thirty-plus years since I graduated from Haverford College. A significant portion of my employment experience has involved service to school- ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As part of the requirement to be a member of Pi Delta Phi, the French National Honor Society at UCF, I was required to tutor French students of all levels on a regular basis. Learning a foreign language not only taught me French, but also gave me a new understanding of English. Being an instructional designer for the Military for six years, I can learn any subject in a short period of time (I write lessons on a new subject on a weekly basis). I have excellent writing and editing skills due to writing lessons every day. While my tutoring experience is somewhat limited, my teaching experience is vast, ranging from language, grammar, and writing to first aid, weapons, and various engineering tasks.
I have a genuine interest in the success of people. I am flexible and am willing to adapt to accommodate the student's learning style. Teaching is like a puzzle to me. I approach each stude ... read more

After several years of coaching and working with children I have learned that my true life calling is to teach children and young adults. I am easy going and friendly and have learned how to quickly build rapport with students. I believe that I can make a difference in children's lives, especially when it comes to education.
After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Geneva College, I spent time developing my skills with working with children and young adults as a soccer coach. My first experience in the educational field was working as a paraprofessional at a private school for children with autism. I continued my work in education working as a caseworker with my primary focus being truancy and juvenile probation. I am currently in the process of enrolling for a Master's of Education degree which will enable me to teach history at a high school level. My educational skills are especial ... read more

After graduating from Susquehanna University in 1993, I began substitute teaching for my former elementary school in Lincroft, NJ. I then took a full-time preschool teaching position for one year. During that time, I also tutored a first-grader weekly in math and language arts for a span of approximately nine months. After getting married and moving to PA, I took another full-time pre-K position for two years. I became a mom in 1997 and decided to stay home to raise my three children for nine years. They are now 12, 9, and 5. I am now back in the work force in the insurance industry, but I do miss teaching and believe tutoring would be a great way to get back into the field while simultaneously meeting the demands of the schedule of a single mother of three. As you can imagine, I tutor almost on a daily basis between the three of my children. My strengths lie in language arts, writ ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching anyone regardless of his or her age and level of education. Patience and creative presentation are qualities that help me observe a student’s approach to learning and give them an understanding of how to complete a task. I have found that often students’ difficulties are overcome by working through the problems together, explaining ideas in multiple ways until the student is confident in his or her understanding of the idea. However, I strongly believe that each student must be able to complete his or her own work. Thus, I make sure they can duplicate the work on their own. I have experience in public presentation, but I prefer to work with students in smaller groups so that I can give them individualized help.
I have experience tutoring both young children and young adults in private and public settings. I spent a school year teaching two students in grades 2 ... read more
