Lifelong learner wants to help!

Patience is a true virtue! When teaching children, patience has to be presence. I have learned through my experience, a calm environment with a patience and observant teacher who is willing to try to understand how the child learns, goes a long way because all children are not the same; therefore, they do not learn in the same manner.
Hello All, I am currently a 3rd grade teacher in a ICT classroom in Brooklyn,NY. I truly enjoy educating children and helping them develop a greater understanding of different concepts. I am into my 4th year of teaching. I am highly dedicated and motivated teacher who is willingly to go above and beyond to help children succeed.

My comments on tutoring Government : My college minor was International Affairs. I also interned at the U.S. Congress, both House and Senate, as a college student. My tutoring experience includes AP U.S. Government, but I can also easily assist with AP Comparative Government. I spent three summers teaching international politics to gifted middle school students.

Students being tutored one-on-one deserve lessons customized to their learning style. My sessions often incorporate some writing and topic discussion along with activities tailored to the student's interests, skill development needs and preferences.
This is my fourth year tutoring middle and high school students in History and Government. I also have professional classroom teaching experience and volunteer elementary school teaching experience. My students, primarily Global History, World History and European History students, have raised their class grades, passed the Regents exam by many points and earned high scores on the AP. I specialize in both content acquisition and essay writing skills. Some students have worked with me for half a year or more, others for a month or two before cumulative exams.

My comments on tutoring Government : Taught Government and Politics

I was employed by the Lakeland Central School District as a substitute Teacher Aide and later in a full time capacity. I worked for the OASIS Program and later at the Alternative High School. After completing my Bachelor's Degree at Concordia College, I applied for and was accepted into the New York City Teaching Fellows Program. I taught Special Education at a high needs urban high school in the Bronx. This was a challenging and rewarding experience. Many of my students continued on to post secondary schools. I am currently finishing my Master's degree program at City College of New York, expected graduation is May 2013.
I have a varied style, which is geared to the learning style of my students. I teach world to text, text to text, text to life.

More About This Tutor...

I like to get students to comprehend the material and then have them push themselves and use what they have learned.
I have been a teacher in Stamford Public Schools K-12,a United Nations correspondent, published a novel, and have a BA in Literature from Purchase College. I have experience with teaching large classes or individual tutoring, and I'm great at presenting ideas that the student can identify with. I get people I'm working with to realize they can do more than they think they can.

I am not a teacher; I am an awakener!

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences.
I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency. Working with young adolescents and adults proved to be j ... read more

All Politics is Local

Socratic
The Thrill of the Teacher teaching his material is his repetition in the work, further gaining mastery over what he is covering. Often times its the student who is teaching more to the teacher, than the teacher could ever teach to all his students. With that experience, however comes greater opportunities along the way.

Versatile Tutor

I have taught all levels of math K-12 and college level courses such as linear algebra and multivariable calculus for 15 years for Brainfuse. I tutored Statistics and Chemistry for 5 years for Tutor.com and was awarded the 5 year badge of longevity and awarded master tutor status- the highest level attainable for a tutor.
My teaching style is relaxed and unfaiilingly patient. We all were slow at learning something at one time or another. i ask qualifying questoins to find out how much the student knows about a topic. Then if I am solving a homework queestion I try to engage the student in their own learning as much as possible.

Experienced and Proactive Educator

I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.
Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students.

Bringing fun and learning together to achieve success!

Many years of experience teaching, working, and tutoring children of all ages. Every child learns in a different way. I want to be able to find the best way and help children have fun while learning. It is important to establish what learning method works best for a child before teaching can take place. A child will be successful if they are having fun and learning in a style that they feel comfortable with.
Hands on learning, use of technology, books, group learning, creative role play of different ways to solve problems.

Yale Student Tutors in the Humanities, SATs!

Ahoy! My name is Julia, and I am a Junior at Yale. I grew up in NYC, prancing around in coffee shops, studying with my friends at 6am the day of a big test. Many students, myself included, learn best when they wade through complexity with other people. I am here to help! I (not so fondly) remember hours of SAT, SAT2, ACT, and AP practice, and am very familiar with the format of standardized tests. I specialize in test prep, as well as Literature/Language, Social Studies/History, and Math (through pre-calculus). As a Humanities major, reading and writing is my food and water! I would be happy to help proofread your papers, brainstorm ideas, or work on structuring effective college essays. I have taught in many different settings - public schools, 3rd grade LD classrooms, journalism workshops for high schoolers, after-school tutoring for middle schoolers, to name a few! I have also ... read more
