After more than 30 years working for a securities firm, I decided to retire - but missed the business. So, for over 10 years, I worked for a well-known exam preparation company part-time as an instructor teaching the Series 6, 7, 9, 10, 24, 63, 65, 66, and 99. Most of the classes were conducted online, but some in classroom sessions. Additionally, I did a lot of one-on-one tutoring both in person and online. I am passionate about helping candidates by by using real life examples to better understand the rules and regulations they need to apply to pass these exams. I have recently successfully assisted candidates pass the new Securities Industry Essentials exam. I take the time to understand your strengths and weaknesses and tailor a program designed to focus your efforts on the areas you need the most help. My tutoring sessions are not cookie-cutter - they are individualized.

My teaching style is very hands on and unique. I focus on the writer's voice above all because without that, they are only writing words with no soul behind them. In college I was a "student instructor" in my university's writing lab, which is just another way of saying that I was a tutor. Post graduation, I now have experience with journalism as I've written articles for The Style Vibe and Green Label, both highly respected online magazines. Also as a creative writer I have published numerous short stories as well as a few poems. I currently have two novellas under review for publication.

The key to successful teaching is to make it fun! I have a law degree, but most of my experience comes from working with my own kids and spending hundreds of hours volunteering at their schools helping other children. I home schooled my children for 3 years for the middle school years and so I have experience motivating the surly teen who has no motivation to work as well as the young child that just wants to play. I also taught my children and many others how to read at very young ages and have perfected the technique for teaching children math and reading who love to move. One of my children had ADD and so I know how to work well with this issue. I also have a technique for teaching multiplication and math to very young children. You can see an example of the results of my work here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnBCQKn8wBs. The key is making everything FUN!!! This applies wh

In school I'm often choosen to help other students learn material that they are struggling with. Some things such as history and english come naturally for me so I'm confident that I can help other people learn those subjects as well. I feel comfortable working with all types of students because everyone has potential to be great at any subject they want to as long as they are willing to put in 100 percent! I make sure the people I help are very organized because organization is the first key to a good learning environment. I also love flash cards and work sheets!
