I have my BS in Paralegal Studies from Peirce College, with a minor in English. In 2010 I earned my Masters Degree from Drexel University in Library and Information Science. I completed several graduate level courses on youth instruction. In addition, I have mentored children and adults with ADD. At the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD and went through an intensive learning disability program consisting of various types of learning and processing. I would like to help children conquer the disability before they pick up bad study habits and poor self-esteem. I am patient, thoughtful and I believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT. When I was younger I struggled with a learning disability. I overcame the disability to earn several degrees with honors. I am looking to help students who are willing to put in the time and effort to improve.

I am Jesuit-schooled (undergraduate degree from St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia), so I am very much into asking questions and analyzing concepts in depth. For a little more than 13 years, I have been teaching numerous topics, most specifically writing, in which I hold a Master's degree. I find it riveting to guide learners to an enhanced appreciation for the rewards of communication and have grown to feel even more enamored with subject matters through encouraging students' curiosity.

Over the past three years, I have tutored several students in mathematics, biology, and biochemistry at the Academic Support Unit of the Multicultural Life Center at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. I guided their development of individual note-taking strategies, study habits, and problem solving skills. I chose to tutor mathematics and biology in order to enhance my interpersonal, people management and critical thinking skills. Also, it was an opportunity to apply and share my knowledge with other motivated students from different academic years and majors. Throughout the experience, my goal was to help students become independent learners who can challenge themselves and maintain academic success. It also helped me understand the relationship between a mentor and a mentee.

I am knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and experienced working with children with a variety of needs. I believe every child is an individual that should be treated with respect and understanding. My approach to teaching utilizes a child's interests, technology, engaging texts, and inquiry-based projects. Tutoring can be so much more than impersonal instruction. Greetings! I'm a certified elementary educator with seven years of experience working as a basic skills teacher, test prep tutor, and for the last five years a third grade teacher. I am trained in STEM and reading and writing workshops. I pride myself on growing student's reading levels, writing, and critical thinking. I'm currently looking to tutor additional students and would be happy to assist with homework and projects, as well as develop study skills, test readiness, and fundamentals.

I worked as a peer tutor in the Writing Center at the University of Delaware for 2 years. I worked on all phases of the writing process, from brainstorming to revisions and final drafts. I have also tutored first year college students in the social sciences, in particular in history and government. As far as writing, the best approach depends on the phases. I have always acted as an instructor and guide. I help a student develop and process ideas. In the brainstorming phase, I may help a student generate ideas by suggesting different areas and working on "thought clouds." We may also do a "free write" and then discuss the ideas that were generated. During the writing process I help guide students in the development of outlines and structure. Truthfully, there is no best strategy. The techniques depend on the students needs and learning styles.

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, assertive, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible for each child. I am a firm believer in teaching at a slow yet steady pace and in providing a visual approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential. A few good educators have made in difference in my educational background and I look to do the same. As a Richard Stockton College of NJ graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education.

I am a NJ state certified teacher in elementary and secondary education and recently completed my special education certification so that students requiring special educational accommodations can be properly recognized and taught. I have earned a BA in Education, a BS in Business Administration and two Masters Degrees. My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This pro

My work for various employers in the insurance and legal industry has been dependent on strong interpersonal skills, dealing with those on all levels of the social ladder. As my career advanced, countless times I was called upon to assist others in their training, and my job also required a daily aspect of education in explaining intricacies of systems to many. I strive to advance in everything I do, including my education. While working full-time, I pursued a law degree in the evening, both as an attempt to further my career, and gain all the associated intangibles of higher education. I cherish the opportunity to apply my skills for your benefit, and more so, the ultimate benefit of your clients. I am very confident in my ability to quickly assess the needs of another, and it's appropriate to tailor my teaching style accordingly, so that each child would receive the maximum benefit

I have always loved children and working with them. As a teenager, I volunteered as a camp instructor during the summer. All of my jobs since graduating college have allowed me to help children work to their potential. Since my major is Special education, I have a strong sense of compassion and empathy. I feel each child has the right to learn, and should love to go to school. Through patience and numerous teaching styles, I try to bring out the best in each of my students.

I was a Resource and an Inclusion teacher.I stopped to raise my sons,and also got my Reading Masters in 1991.I then worked part-time for the library system.

I love working with and teaching children and I recognize that every child is different and each has his/her own capacity for learning. Being able to work one-on-one with your child will give me the opportunity to taylor a program that will fit his/her needs. I am an active listener and I am very, very patient. As a H.S. student, I was a volunteer tutor with A Better Chance program and I continued to tutor and mentor students throughout my college and professional career. I tutored students in math and english/reading. My greatest sources of satisfaction have been spending 3 summers on loan to Purdue University to teach in their Minority Science program for H.S.
