Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Wyncote, PA

I am very proud of my positive approach style of tutoring and believe that praise for every effort made is essential. My students receive incentives as they progress through their learning objectives. I promise to use several techniques to help you learn; such as games, art, cooking, scavenger hunts, play and much more. We will not be sitting at the table every session just filling in worksheets. Learning will be a fun process and I will be learning along with you as I learn more about you. Hello - I am Debbie. I love to teach reading, vocabulary words, spelling, writing and study skills.

My philosophy of teaching is best articulated by the famous quote by Michelanglo --" I am still learning." I try to relate to my students that, although I may have a little more knowledge and experience, we are all, hopefully, continuously seeking knowledge about ourselves and the world. My role as a teacher is more one of a fellow journeyman than an 'expert.' I believe that if you are passionate about what you teach and enthusiastic about the teaching process, students respond. I love the written word in all its manifestations --its beauty, its flexibility and its power to connect and communicate. I teach that writing is not an art reserved for the few but an intrinsic part of being human. We are story-tellers by nature, and if given the opportunity, safety, guidance and skills, anyone can write well. Regarding my approach to teaching composition, I employ a thematic-based st

As an Art and Technology teacher, I can give my students the opportunities to use both sides of their brain according to their needs using hands on activities.

I am a licensed CPA in the state of PA. I have been tutoring accounting for approximately 6 years now and have tutored a diverse group of individuals from undergraduate business majors to MBA students. I believe heavily in face-to-face teaching and always try my hardest to ensure that my students understand the material so that they are able to take it back with them to the class rooms and succeed on exams. My teaching style is a very interactive one. I often work directly with my students and walk them through problems as they do them. I find this to be the most effective way of tutoring as I am able to identify weaknesses and help turn them into strengths.

patience mainly in securing rapport with a student. In caring and teaching health to young people I have acquired the ability to help them learn as well as aiding in their near-point vision, which is a big factor in reading. I have found that many young people today do not have good near- point vision due to exposure to television in their pre-school years, beside perhaps lack of being read to at this time.
