ELL, Reading and Writing, Standardized tests ALL ages

I am a fan of Howard Gardner- I believe each student has his/her own learning style. Knowing these learning styles can help both teacher and student accomplish academic success. I also believe in a gradual release of responsibility on the student's part. Teaching vocabulary before the actual lesson can help the student understand more completely.
I have recently acquired a Master of Education degree in Education-a lifelong dream. I have taught in both private and public schools in grades PreK-6. I have tutored many students along the way-including summer school for struggling readers and writers. My most recent assignment was a permanent substitute position in the first grade. I am currently tutoring in ELL AND ALL ACADEMIC SUBJECTS. I have passed all the MTEL exams and have helped fellow colleagues with these exams. I also hold License to teach Special Needs.

Experienced high school and middle school math tutor

When tutoring, I try to meet the students needs by utilizing methods of teaching which take into consideration the student's learning style. I explain concepts using visual representations as well as numerical/algebraic models. I am a very patient teacher who will find various ways of explaining math concepts, until I find one that works for the student. I teach students the "why" behind the process rather than explaining the process of finding a solution by only listing a number of steps, which the students easily forget. If the student knows why a process works, they will be able to recreate it again at a future date. I also demonstrate to the student various methods that they can employ to help them answer their own questions in determining whether or not a process will work in finding solutions. I work with students in developing methods to help them better prepare for assess ... read more

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 reaching out to the student and engaging with them as an individual, I am able to help them develop and understanding of the content which works best for them. If my student can walk away knowing not just more about their subject, but more about how they function as a learner, then I've done my job.
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 expe ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Regardless of the demographics of the student population in the classroom, I have learned that it is as important to listen as it is to present information. I encourage participation in classromm subjects yet maintain control and functionality of the class so that the lesson is not lost in the discussion. It is rewarding to see the improvment of self esteem and knowledge when people become heard and are understood in a positive environment. The miracle of comprehension is akin to nurturing, encouraging and challenging an individual to blossom and bear fruit that can be enjoyed and savored by many.
I have spent a lifetime educating myself and participating in professional development and then giving back my knowledge and skills to those that may benefit. I have found that I frequently learn as much from those that I teach as they learn from me. My History degree is not only a passio ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe knowledge and success go hand-in-hand. That’s one of the main reasons I enjoy teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I’m grateful for the people in my life that have taken the time to teach and show me various things. I enjoy doing the same, passing along any knowledge that I’ve gained because information should be shared. I try to structure my teaching style to be a bit informal, so the student feels comfortable learning and asking questions. I also try to structure my teaching around the students learning style so that they can get the most out of the session. Lastly, I try to show any tricks for remembering certain information that either I was taught by my own professors or that I came up with during my own studies.

More About This Tutor...

I like to get to know my student. Being a little older, I find it easier to do this. This getting to know the student, includes understanding their needs and what they know. Once I get to know the student, learning can progress. I am good at summarizing the information they need. This summery is short, specific, and most important, clear. Its explaining material clearly and at the rate the student can understand, that makes a good tutor. The students are happy to learn, and this good feeling make learning even better.
I have been tutoring for many years. I started at Sylvan Learning Centers, where I was there for two and one half years. I am proud to say I was successful in that I helped many students and that I was able to do this over a wide range of student needs. Some of this included teaching the SAT preparation course, both the English and math sides. I have also had studen ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is both relaxed and focused. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with my students and also am aware that I learn from them. I believe that goals are important in lesson planning and children benefit from structure as long as it isn’t rigid. At times it’s important to respond to the direct concerns and/or questions a student may have even if they are not part of the planned lesson. If I’m doing my job well, when a student leaves me, they are happy and feel they have progressed toward becoming more skillful in language, especially reading.
I have over 15 years experience as a classroom teacher in English and a decade of most recent experience as an Orton Gillingham Reading Tutor/Interventionist and general academic tutor (including Writing) from Elementary through Adult. I specialize in helping the struggling reader learn “the code” of English so the barriers to read ... read more

I have high expectations for all of my students. They know it, and when we're done, they're proud of what they've accomplished. I teach SAT, for example, and expect all of my students to earn at least a 9 out of 12 on the essay portion. I coach each one on employing his or her strengths to produce a good essay. With beginners, I focus on organizing the presentation, clear declarative sentences, and effective use of transitions to keep things moving. Then we progress to varying sentence types and common vocabulary (for example, don't say "very" all the time; use "extremely", "powerfully", "excessively", "dramatically". Same with "nice", "bad", and the perennial favorite "awesome.") Analyzing other students' essays provides a model and some metacognition (without the jargon) for students. Everything is scaffolded, and advanced students can move up the steps rapidly. But every stude ... read more

I have three children ages 12, 17 and 20 and have had many years of real world tutoring with them. I've also tutored other students, which is far easier. These experiences have allowed me to discover many techniques to keep students engaged and prevent them from becoming frustrated. I'm sure I can work successfully with your son or daughter. I have a strong background in math and science (Ph.D. from MIT) and excellent English and organizational skills. I have passed the MTEL Communication and Literacy Skills test and the MTEL Middle School Mathematics test and hold a Massachusetts license to teach middle school math.
My tutoring style is very friendly and supportive. I'm much more like a coach than a teacher. I work closely with each student to identify stumbling blocks and I introduce alternate ways of understanding that concept working interactively with the student ... read more

My tutoring involves following classroom plans in Reading, Writing, English, and related skills and subjects. The goal is to support my students in their academic work that needs remedial attention as well as to enhance and enrich their homework, supporting them in every way possible. I mainly teach grades Kindergarten through six and have worked for over three years with older students at the middle school level(s).
I am firm and consistent always asking for the students' imput. My style will vary with the assignment at hand, also. It is important to me that I achieve expectations of me through collaborative efforts. It is important that I help each child reach his/her potential motivating them to plan their work carefully and to strive for success.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a high school student, I had a part time job tutoring a younger high school student in mathematics and SAT preparation. This job was 4 nights a week and lasted all during my senior year. As a college student, I would frequently help friends and family with high school chemsitry in a one-on-one formal setting. I also further tutored my brother's friend in SAT preparation. After completing my degrees, I did some tutoring for my future sister-in-law in college level organic chemistry.
My teaching "style" is process-oriented. I first explain the fundamentals or theory, then do an example, then work through an example with the student, and finally allow the student to complete a problem on their own.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an MIT graduate, I was particularly driven to excel in science and mathematics courses so as to be able to apply these to engineering and technology problems. I subsequently obtained two doctorate degrees: one in medicine and the second in law. I am currently working on the development and patenting of medical devices to improve medical care for patients. I have always loved teaching and tutoring and have done it for many years to supplement my income. My students tell me that I can explain the material in a very understandable way.
I really love teaching and finding different ways of using analogies and similarities to explain difficult concepts. I have been very successful in teaching the sciences and mathematics courses in an understandable way. I believe that everyone is capable of learning the material, it simply needs to be presented in the correct way. ... read more
