My comments on tutoring Earth Science : Earth Science was my favorite subject in high school. I am very interested in ecology and environmental studies.

In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly reputed language school in Vienna ... read more

Earth Science is one of my top subjects!

During my year as an AmeriCorps VISTA at the Earth Ethics Institute, a non-profit organization at Miami Dade College, I was responsible for the successful execution of five high-profile programs. I strengthened my ability to multitask and was able to effectively implement each program’s components at their full potential and capabilities. I became accustomed to working independently under strict deadlines and overseeing many service-learning college students who assisted with events. As many of these service-learners regarded me as a role-model, I committed myself to bringing out their full potentials while mentoring them through their college experiences. I was considered the unofficial technological assistant of my workplace due to my proficiency at Microsoft Office and my ability to work at an exceedingly fast pace. In addition to this, my co-workers often request that I overview ... read more

I enjoy teaching children and helping them accomplish their goals. I believe that learning should be fun. I try to motivate each child by focusing on their strengths. I encourage each child to try their best. I believe that each child has the potential to do well in school and I feel that it is my job to help them succeed. I have helped several of my students improve their math and reading grades, dramatically! One of my students was failing math and he received a B on his last report card! The other student went from a fourth grade reading level to a seventh grade reading level in less than three months. I enjoy seeing the smiles on the children's faces when they get a good report card and it makes my job worthwhile.

I have enjoyed very much working with children and I know that every student has his own learning style and my teaching must be adapted to them. I am patient, even with children who do not speak fluent English and I seek to encourage them to seek success. I believe a phonics approach to reading can help children learn to read quickly and confidently. I also believe a hands on approach to math can be very valuable to a child's learning. I seek to see each child achieve his potential and grow in self esteem.
As I graduated from college with my California State Teaching Credential,I was able to teach 2nd grade for the Los Angeles City School District for three years. During that time I sought to gain as much experience and expertise as possible to prepare me for teaching in a school for missionary children overseas. I studied Spanish intensively for a year in Mexico preparing me ... read more

I have tutored since I was in 8th grade. I love helping out and eventually I would love to be a tutor full time. Teaching other children on how to do different subjects makes me feel very happy that I am able to help them become successful in a subject that is very hard for them. I am willing to take all the time in the world for the student to make sure that they fully understand the topic that we are discussing.

More About This Tutor...

In my college curriculum and internships, I experienced and observed a great deal about people and various styles of processing information. That is, every person has a rather unique way of learning. I would think the most important point to tap into, when tutoring someone, would be to discover how he/she best learns and on what levels. My strongest subject is English and grammatical skills. I have a high degree of creativity and I am flexible and patient. The key focus in my curriculum (Therapeutic Recreation) was to discover what makes a person come alive, what is his/her passion, and to design a plan with achievable goals to enable that person to attain a higher level of morale/success.
I initially try to find what he/she is struggling with,and what strengths and weaknesses are present. I allow the person to ask questions in a fluid, spontaneous, "let's see as we tack ... read more

I have developed a style all my own. I lead my students by letting them find answers for themselves. I also believe that students will achieve higher test scores with my techniques. I have found that teaching HOW to take tests is as important as subject matter. I bring a great deal of experienc to this program. I taught in quite a few different learning environments. I taught rural children. I taught in the "inner city". I taught privileged and underpriveleged children. I have coached high school baseball as well as Red Cross Water Safety Programs. I also bring with me a broad variety of non-educational experience.
My teaching style is one of discovery. Often I will talk about one thing and students will latch onto something in the discussion and steer the lesson in another direction. What they don't realise is that is exactly what I wanted them to do. Now we ar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a MA in Psychology from Concordia University. My BS in Human Development & Family Studies with a minor in Psychology is from Penn State University. I am currently taking Medical Coding and Billing classes on-line. I have over 15 years experience working with children in all settings (mental health, teaching, tutoring, volunteering etc.).
It truly does take a village to raise a child as the saying goes. I have been able to make many positive differences in many childrens lives by tutoring, volulnteering and working with them. I am able to teach in a variety of ways, which as most people know, everyone learns differently. Some people are visual learners, meaning they learn better through the written word. While others are auditory (listening) or kinesthetic (learn by doing). I believe that I can provide the best education possible by teaching in a variety of ways while ma ... read more

I consider myself a very practical and patient person. I believe in setting realistic goals for children and when they meet them, celebrate it wholeheartedly. We need to reinforce and support our children in a constructive manner. I believe in being practical when teaching children. They connect better when they can relate to the topic. Most of my teachers were wonderful people that found a way to connect with me. Those that did experience a wonderful and fulfilling payback which was seeing their students improve their skills and become more confident. It’s an unbelievable feeling when you know that your support impacted a child positively and that child has grown up to be a kind and wonderful human being.
My entire education came from public schools. I was blessed because I had supportive parents and wonderful teachers that shared their knowledge with me. These teachers w ... read more

I like to use fun and innovative strategies to intrinsically motivate my students. Children learn in many different ways. One of the benefits of the tutoring process is that I can find the strategy that works best for each student. I want to help your children be successful students and instill a confidence and love of learning that will serve them for the rest of their lives. I treat each student with patience, respect and kindness. I believe specific praise will help students accomplish their goals and conquer their fears. Together we can make a difference.
