A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor of Art in History, predominantly American. I also pursued Engineering for my first year and plan to go back to College. I have completed through Calculus II and am also experienced in hands-on mechanical. I have limited tutoring experience, but I know I can listen and respond. Any experience came from helping others in classes during College.
I'm patient and listen to the student to see what they get and don't get about the premise of the lesson. Then we get to it. Careful reinforcement of the Correct method will ensure Remembrance and Results. Also, Lessons must be approached within the context of the Big Picture. Students need to realize that there are no pointless or forgettable sections. Basically, communication is key followed by practice, reinforcement, more practice. Learning can be at pace, but laziness and whining will not be tolerated.

A Little Bit About Me...

I very much have a "hands-on" teaching style. I am a visual learner myself, so my teaching style reflects that methodology. I explain the concept, demonstrate the process, reintroduce the steps and then allow my students to practice, practice, practice while offering guidance, suggestions, and positive reinforcement. I am very aware that all students are different. What I have come to learn is that with patience and the desire to truly want each child to succeed, all students can learn. I am a veteran so I pride myself on being organized and disciplined. I am also a volunteer in nursing homes so I consider myself to be compassionate, patient and understanding.
I have been in Education for over 20 years. Most recently I have been a substitute teacher in all subject areas and grade levels. I have a strong Science background and I am a published author so I am proficient in Reading/ ... read more

I believe understanding of science and math is essential in today's world. I also believe this understanding is not beyond the grasp of any student, as long as they are given patient instruction, the relevance and importance of the subject is provided, and interest is suitably generated. I believe an educator with passion and enthusiasm for science and math can make a critical difference for a student, and I know I can be that person.
I am a recent graduate of the University of Rhode Island with a BS in Wildlife Conservation Biology. My academic background includes much coursework in biology, chemistry, physics, other sciences, and math. I won a scholarship due to my high GPA in the sciences, and was also a Coastal Fellow - doing a research project with the Audubon Society of Rhode Island and presenting my results in a scientific poster during a special presentation. I graduated Wi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Endicott College in 2007 with a BA in Liberal Studies, and a concentration in Elementary Education. While there I completed 2 month long internships in classrooms as well as a semester long internship in a 3rd grade classroom. I hold a preliminary license with the MA DOE in Elementary Education. I spent 5 months working with children with severe to profound mental retardation in a group home setting. Most recently I have taken a position as a teacher in a GED program. We serve students of all ages and abilities in a low income urban setting. My range of abilities working with students is vast.
I have a passion for learning, and that carries over into my teaching style. I believe in using hands-on, engaging lessons and activities as much as possible. I have seen first hand how much a classroom dynamic can change when students are engaged in their work. Regardless of ... read more

Prior to my second career in the field of service to at-risk senior citizens, I taught English for four years at Westport High School. Following the reduction in force made necessary by budgetary constraints, I taught for ten years at the Crystal Springs School in Assonet, MA as a Special Needs teacher. While rewarding, I missed the challenge of more literary pursuits and began teaching evening classes at a local communuity-based organization. My tutoring experience had its inception in that setting.
As a progressive educator, I believe in attainment of the standard benchmarks by individualized methods, utilitizng a spectrum of teaching modalities. My personal affect is cheerful and professional, although I believe that learning should be fun, and with me, it is.
