Lifelong learner wants to help!

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.
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.

Environmental Journalist to help with reading and writing

I am an environmental reporter based in New York. My articles have appeared in New Scientist, Scientific American, Psychology Today, Popular Science, OnEarth Magazine and Smart Planet. I was also a copy editor with a large publishing house for two years where I used my spelling and grammar skills to fact check and proof read manuscripts. I love to travel and learn about people and the world and spent two years living in Paris, France where I was an English tutor to French children and adults. I also co-host a podcast about fairy tales called Tabled Fables. Each month we discuss a different tale to find out what the story means, how it's evolved and what makes it stick.
I like to help people learn about English by exploring their interests. For example, if you are a fan of economics we can read The Economist and discuss world politics. If you prefer to talk about animals we can crea ... read more

Assistant Teacher; Dedicated and Supportive Tutor

Throughout my undergraduate career, I have tutored fellow students in my major, designing tools to help them succeed on exams and assignments. In addition, students taking various courses have asked me to edit their papers and guide their studying. Outside the realm of college, I have previously been an assistant teacher for early intervention and preschool children. I am currently an assistant teacher for elementary school students. I enjoy working with people, and I enjoy using my strong academic abilities to help others succeed in school. I consider myself a friendly and down-to-earth person, eager to give over my positivity, dedication and support to those that I work with.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : Reading comprehension purposes need to be set prior to the reading task. Each structured skill can be identified through the reading and rereading and underlining the necessary information to the specific task. It is a fun searching skill. The younger students love being detectives!!

I received my bachelor degree in elementary education. After having my two daughters, I went to graduate school and achieved a masters degree as a Reading Specialist. I was a graduate assistant and taught in a learning center for two years while earning my masters degree. Upon graduation I was an adjunct professor at C.W. Post, taught reading at a private school, a public school and then worked full time managing the reading department In an elementary school for eighteen years. During that time I had the opportunity to teach a support before school program, summer literacy as the lead teacher, creating my curriculum and a Saturday Academy in the middle school teaching study skills and test prep.
My teaching style is very structured due to my training, however, I can be extremely creative and motivating with the most challenging students!

Psychology major at Hartwick College

Currently, I work as a Museum Assistant at the Yager Museum of Art & Culture in Oneonta, New York. As a museum assistant, I perfect my verbal communication skills, anticipate others' wants and needs, and take initiative in assisting museum visitors. I've also lent my creativity and excellent writing to The Mommy Dash and Hilltops, or Hartwick College's newspaper. From my employment history, I've built strong leadership skills and gained a strong need to work and constantly better myself. I believe these traits qualify me as a strong tutor, as I've learned to communicate effectively with children, discern their strengths and weaknesses, and encourage them to progress at their own pace. I have tutored children for three years in such subjects as English, math, and science. If given the chance, I believe I can help your child become a stronger student.
I focus more on individual progr ... read more

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I am an Ivy League English major undergrad and enjoy teaching.

Friendly, non-threatening, clear and accomplishment-oriented.
Business executive looking to assist elementary and high school children with their studies. I am a voracious reader and a life-long learner. I like children, have had exposure to tutoring before, enjoyed it immensely, was very good at it (in the sense that the children enjoyed my friendly manner and enjoyed the learning experience) and would like to help children remedy deficiencies and perhaps even learn how to enjoy learning as much as I do.
