I have always wanted to teach. When I was a child I would round up the kids in my neighborhood and make them do lessons that I created. I do remember they did not like that. I went to college and earned a BS in Biology always knowing that I would eventually teach the sciences. I was an excellent student and have always found pride in myself on my ability to communicate with clearity. I have one year of tutoring experience at the k-12 level. Attaining a degree in the sciences has helped me to develop key writing as well as key listening skills. I am very capable of tutoring in most subjects.
I would say that my teaching style is very interactive. Anyone can give instructions but I love feedback from a one on one situation as well as a group environment. I base alot of my instruction on analogies; when a person can relate an experience or another word to a term being tought, t ... read more

The most important qualities of outstanding educators are experience, creativity, and patience. Each quality needs to be developed or tested by time in order to increase in its overall effectiveness. Teachers who can consistently employ all three qualities throughout their careers will be successful educators. It will take a lot of effort and hard work as an educator to successfully integrate the qualities of experience, creativity, and patience into their teaching styles. The effort and hard work will result in the development and establishment of those important qualities within teachers. In turn, the qualities will help those outstanding teachers to continue working hard with unquestionable effort.
Through the course load of my college career my studies also incorporated normal life span development, personality development, abnormal development, prevention, group behavior, ... read more

Although I had a family and worked full time I decided to go back to school and get my advanced degree from Johns Hopkins University. It was a great school and I felt a wonderful sense of accomplishment by obtaining my degree. While obtaining a BA degree from Johns Hopkins University, I was inducted into the honor society Alpha Sigma Lambda, and president from 2000-2002. During that time I tutored adults with problems in basic math skills, reading and writing. Although I did not obtain a teaching certificate - I began my master's degree in Education from Johns Hopkins University in Adult Learning. I moved out of the area before I could finish the degree. I have learned extensive skills from the graduate courses and also from the student teaching that was required during those years.
I have always enjoyed tutoring students. I would like to be able to give something bac ... read more

I have taught a few weapons classes and use of force classes as a security forces member in the Air Force. However, I have never taught classes on a regular basis.
As a supervisor and trainer in the military, it was my responsibility to train the new individuals that came into the job. There was a lot of studying material that I constantly had to sit down and go over with them. We made flashcards, took notes, made up quizzes, did verbal question and answers, etc. I actually used to tutor math in High School when I was in an advanced Calculus class and have helped many friends with their college math. As a grad student, I am writing lots of essays which has really helped me with my English skills. I have a lot of academic experience that I would love to utilize while tutoring.

As an undergraduate, a professor in the Psychology department recruited me to be a teaching assistant in Statistics after she found me freely tutoring my classmates in the lobby (I'd also earned an A grade in her course). I was just a sophomore at the time, and was able to hone my tutoring skills over the next two years in both Statistics and Psychology. In 2006 I received the Sibley English Composition prize from my school, and I have a passion for writing in addition to the subjects mentioned above. Since graduating, I have been responsible for training on a variety of levels at Nordstrom, including assisting department interns with reading statistical sales reports and composing interpretive reports of their own.
Teaching is the most fulfilling experience I have ever had. I am a person who learns by doing, and it has been my experience that actively working with the material alo ... read more

After college I worked for three years.During that time I applied and received a scholarship to the Medical College of Pennsylvania, from which I graduated in 1994. I completed an Internal Medicine Residency at MCP in 1997. After residency I worked as an attending physician in Pittsburgh from 1997 to 2000, and in Berlin, Maryland, from 2001 to 2004. In January, 2004, my wife became severely ill, and I decided to take time off to raise my two young daughters. I taught at the Dawn Training Center in Wilmington, DE, from May to October, 2006. I also have extensive experience teaching junior housestaff and Nurse Practitioner trainees.
I have a fairly informal teaching style, and I tend to use a lot of humor. I try to connect the information I am trying to convey to what the student already knows, rather than simply provide facts to be learned by rote and regurgitated on an exam.

During the last 10 years, I have been a Peer Tutor to University students, a Literacy Tutor with the Literacy Volunteers of America, and an individual tutor to local children. I have extensive experience with all types of writing skills: from poem writing, to letter writing, to business writing. My most recent work experience afforded me the opportunity to perfect my business correspondence. Additionally, I earned a perfect score on the written portion of the GMAT exam (business school entrance exam). I completed my MBA in Finance and Management at New York University. I wrote many business essays.
I love to share my knowledge and share my skills with others in a way to help them learn and grow. The way that I do this is by: 1) evaluate the child's skills, 2) acknowledge the child's skills and build his/her confidence as a stepping stone for future learning, 3) work to add to the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During high school, a manager at work asked if I would help tutor his Hispanic children. The tutoring lasted for about a year and we were all satisfied with the results. After graduating from Rutgers in 2006 with a BA in Psychology, I found a job as a residential counselor for the Devereux Foundation. Math and writing were top priorities and daily notes were taken to see how well each client progressed each week. I now work with a population of students who have developmental disabilities, such as autism. We focus our time on math, grammar, science, the arts, and social skills as well. Also, I have an extensive background in writing and researching due to my undergraduate and graduate work (MS completion).
I believe in education and feel that everyone has the right to a solid foundation in learning to begin or expand their lives. Most of my experience comes with children, but I hav ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in learning by doing. In order for information to be retained, but must be practiced. I am not one that will stand and lecture a student, but allow them to show my where they are at with their skills, and work together to improve them. The student will dictate the pace, but I will dictate the focus of each session, after an assessment. I think every child can improve their skills with the right practice, information and encouragement.
While I was in college, I volunteered as a language arts tutor at a middle school in Ewing, NJ, and even since I have loved helping children learn. My step-daughter has had trouble with reading comprehension and writing skills, and I have worked with her to improve her grades. My mother is also an elementary school teacher, and she has expired me and taught me much of what I know about tutoring. My expertise is with writing skills (any le ... read more

My teaching style is one of encouragement, interaction and reward. I find this style of teaching to be much more effective than giving instructions and talking "at" students. Making learning fun leads to increased interest and greater retention of skills for students of every level.
Throughout my career as an academic administrator with Rutgers University my life has revolved around education. I firmly believe a well rounded, sound education is the best gift a child or young adult can be given. In addition to my administrative responsibilities I also served as a PTL with the university in both the Education and Psychology Departments. The most rewarding position I held within the university was that of Tutorial Coordinator where I was responsible for hiring tutors and supervising all tutoring sessions that took place for our students. Additionally, I received a Reading Endors ... read more
