Because of the unique style of education I have received, my idea of a great teacher is one who functions more as a mentor, working with the student through socratic dialogue and experiential exersizes. A tutor should not only help the student to progress academically in the subject area of focus, but to ignite the students passion for the subject so they will thrive independently after the sessions are over. A combination of activities geared specifically toward meeting academic goals, working through past educational blocks to develop problem-solving strategies for the student, and an ongoing exposure to culturally relevant/current happenings in the field of writing, will provide a multilayered and well rounded immersion into writing and poetics. Resect for the student and a belief in the capability of all learners are what truly set my educational practices apart. I recently complet

As far as teaching goes, I am mostly here to help the person with the way they write their papers, organization of paragraphs, spelling, whether or not the writing makes sense to the reader, and whether or not the reading understands what is written. I believe in being honest about my critiques to the person's writing and being a fair judge all to help the student improve his or her skills so they can become not just good but great at what they are doing.

I hear over and over again that "I'm not a good test-taker" from students but strong test-takers are not born that way! Instead, they develop good test-taking skills and habits over time. You, too, can study and master the test-taking skills to excel on any test. I'd like to enhance your testing attitude and share with you test-taking strategies, tips, hints, and right approaches that will have you saying, "I'm a good test-taker!" And remember that you could master anything you want to master, if you wanted it bad enough and you're willing to work for it! I'm a professional tutor with more than 4 years of experience. I offer one-on-one and group tutoring in English and Math, standardized tests - ASVAB, TOEFL, IELTS, and more!

I have a relaxed teaching style that makes my students feel comfortable and interested in learning. I believe I transfer my passion for my subject to my students. I am able to draw on my extensive work and “real-world” experience, which students seem to appreciate. I have an informal manner, yet I expect much of my students. I expect them to do the work required and to have good attendance at the teaching sessions. I teach best through “hands-on” methods, allowing students to learn by doing. I have worked most of my adult life in education or journalism, and I was able to combine my two passions as a journalism professor at the college level for several years. I am currently a visiting lecturer in media studies at Bridgewater State College and a substitute teacher in local schools. I have taught social studies, business and typing in secondary schools. I also have taught in other venues

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.

Having earned my college degrees as an adult, I am particularly interested in assisting adults in achieving their educational goals.

English and math were the main subject matter for these tests and study/test taking skills were reviewed. In my current position as the Executive Director of a local human service organization, I have flexibility in my schedule to meet the needs of a student. Teaching comes naturally to me in that I love to work with people (i.e. my professional career) and I love to encourage and inspire others to advance their lives through education. I create a comfortable atmosphere for students so that their stress level is reduced and they are able to focus on learning. At the same time, I make lessons fun yet s
