Certified in Secondary Social Studies Education (7-12)

I have taught history/social studies in Somers, Connecticut for the past eight years. Additionally, I have an extensive background in writing. I have taught students from a variety of backgrounds. My first three years of teaching were at the middle school level, teaching courses in Ancient and World History. Currently I teach at the high school level. I have taught courses in U.S History (early and late), World History, Civics/Government, Current Affairs, and Psychology. However, I am not just a teacher of content, but also writing. My school district continues to place a tremendous amount of emphasis on reading and writing skills. All of my courses emphasize research techniques, essay writing and primary source analysis.

As a first year teacher, I am using my creative impulse to establish a relationship with my students. I am fostering a love of learning in my classrooms, as well as a desire to learn more about the world. I am someone who looks at the glass as half full; there is never a problem that cannot be fixed or a creative solution to be discovered. Although I am firm when it comes to my policies in the classroom, I also see myself as a confidant for some students who might not have anyone else in their lives.
During my four years at Roger Williams University, I was involved with a number of activities that helped me in my desire to become an English teacher. Volunteering with the Girl Scouts of Rhode Island as a leader, editing my college newspaper and sitting on a number of committees are just a few of the opportunities I had at my college. Now, as a first year teacher, I am using my ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a professional writer with 25 year experience in the field and I am also a seasoned tutor. I have been tutoring students in writing papers and preparing for written tests in many subjects — including English, history, social studies, government, psychology, and sociology — since I graduated from Clark University with Honors in English in 1985 and have continued working with middle school, high school, undergraduate and graduate level students since that time. I also have worked with students on SAT, SSAT and TOEFL test preparation in the areas of reading comprehension, writing and speaking (TOEFL).
I love working with middle school children and young adults. I have worked successfully with students from under-served populations as well as international students. One example is my work with an internationally born undergraduate student who I tutored in English literature and wr ... read more

Having graduated Magna Cum Laude from Assumption College and after achieving a 3.9 GPA at Clark University for my Master's in English (currently being completed), I have a passion for learning and teaching.

I also e-tutor for Etutoring.org.
Due to my experience with various student populations, I would consider my teaching style to be as varied as it is diverse. I am patient, fun, and aware of various learning and motivation styles. I am anxious to continue working in the education field.

More About This Tutor...

I am a Massachusetts certified teacher of mathematics for grades 5-12, and have four years combined experience as a teacher and tutor of mathematics and language arts. My experience includes training at the Huntington learning center of Acton Massachusetts, where I became well versed in strategies for improving performance on standardised tests, especially the SAT. I have also taught for two years at Marlborough High School, where I worked in classrooms with students who had various learning disabilities, from ADD to autism.
My teaching style is based first and foremost upon engagement. I feel that it is absolutely critical for the successful instructor of any subject to have a passion for that subject that is evident in the way he or she interacts with students. For myself, there is no higher calling than education- and the benefits that can be reaped through effective mathematic ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that everyone learns and can teach in his or her way. I use as many methods as I can to bring a lesson objective across and take my student's learning style into consideration when I teach. I learn a lot as well when I tutor/teach and am always reminded how fun education in any form can be!
I began working in the field of education in 2003 during a fieldwork experience in a kindergarten classroom at P.S. 20 on the Lower East Side of New York City. I then student taught children in 9th and 12th grades in English at Burncoat High School in Worcester,MA for my MA license in 2005. I taught English at Worcester Technical High School until the birth of my twin sons in 2006. I tutored Japanese business professionals until I began my career as an ESL teacher in December 2008 for Worcester,MA. I am two courses away from finishing my Masters degree in Education and truly love what ... read more

I earned my degree in newspaper journalism at Syracuse University, one of the finest schools in the country for this program. Since that time, I have worked as a writer, editor, journalist and reporter for several major organizations, most recently as a content producer for Monster.com's Career Advice. This position involved working with freelance writers to mold their work into a better product.
I believe that helping young people with their writing is essential to getting them to properly express themselves, as well as get them ready to compete in the world of work and school. I love working one-on-one with students and showing them how to improve their writing. I am a tough editor but believe that constant practice is the key to becoming an effective communicator.

More About This Tutor...

In my four years as a professional tutor at the University of Evansville writing center, I focused on improving all aspects of a well-written essay, including the researching process. I have a vast knowledge of the MLS, APA, and AP styles and have honed my grammar skills during my three years as a sports editor. Moreover, I have gained experience tutoring a wide variety of students by volunteering as an English as a Second Language tutor for three years and participating in the Just Read and Junior Achievement programs.
Learning is a team effort. I believe my experience as a Division I cross country runner has endowed me with a team mentality I use each time I tutor a student. Establishing a team setting reassures those I tutor that we will work together to achieve every goal we set. Because I have tutored students of all ages, I can easily identify what must be taught and ... read more

As a 2008 graduation of Westfield State College with a Bachelor of Arts in English Education I have enjoyed being a high school English teacher for two years. My training prior to my career involves experience with English at all four high school levels, drama (both academic and extra curricular,) speech methods and instruction, and urban school environments. Additionally, career opportunities while teaching have allowed me to pursue new and progressive methods of teaching literature and writing.
I have a passion for teaching and working with students, and I am highly energetic and enthusiastic in the classroom. I make it a priority to help students understand that even if a subject isn't enjoyable to them, it is still rewarding to achieve success with it. I make an effort to adapt to each students learning style, whether visual, kinesthetic, auditory, or something different. By re ... read more

More About This Tutor...

For nearly six years my husband and I have been foster parents to children in the Commonwealth. I have drawn on my education and employment experience to assist many of these children in their studies as most have had learning disabilities and very little home support. At one point in my employment history I was a substitute teacher in elementary-high school and while I subbed in several subjects, I enjoyed the English classes most as it is where my expertise is. In college I worked for a small town paper in Jamestown, RI and I used to write for professional magazines when I worked in Marketing.
My work history in Marketing Management allows me to orchestrate an environment with fun and enthusiasm. I believe that a great deal of a child's success will come from making the process of learning enjoyable as opposed to it being a chore. I make the experience of learning fun so my ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is organically structured, with an emphasis on scaffolding prior knowledge to new concepts. Being sensitive to the diversity of learners, I customize my teaching style to fit each individual’s specific needs. I have high expectations for my students, however, I base my expectations on their ability levels; levels that I am constantly monitoring in order to determine whether I need to ramp up the level of instruction or make accommodations until the theory at hand is fully grasped. Not only do I emphasize the curriculum at hand, I also teach the student that proper organization and study skills can have significant impact on their overall academic success.
After earning my B.F.A. from V.C.U. (magna cum laude) with double minors in art history and Italian, I moved to New York and worked in the creative, behind-the-scenes world of theatre and television. After six y ... read more
