Grammar Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Yonkers, NY

I have been teaching and tutoring writing in almost every genre -- from the creative prose to business correspondence and memoranda -- since 1998. I started out tutoring students in anthropology at Hunter College and then landed a teaching position at a business school where I taught business English. In 2007 I enrolled in an MFA program at The City College and a year later began teaching freshman composition courses to engineering majors. I have references available from instructors and supervisors as diverse as the former dean of Hebrew Studies at CCNY to the supervisor of the SEEK Department's PAL Center. I do not have a teaching style as this implies that I or anyone can really teach another how to write. Writing is not taught in a way that science can be taught or grammar can be taught. Writing (and learning grammar and memorizing vocabulary lists are not learning how to write) is l

Throughout my years of teaching, I have witnessed and helped assist in new and exciting educational program implementation in day-cares and school systems. With my real world and in class learning I have realized the importance children’s primary academic instruction plays in their growth and development. I find it fortunate that I have had wonderful opportunities to teach diverse groups of students, including those with learning disabilities, those who performed at grade level, and those who were exceptional. These opportunities have helped build my classroom management abilities and communication skills. My philosophy of education has been centered on differentiated instruction and the importance of individual learning styles and effective evaluative measurements. From March 1st, 2010 till June 30th, 2011 I have had the opportunity to be both a full time grade one and grade four teache

I have been helping with other students in my past and I helped them get to a B and higher and with all the subjects I teach them they will be prepared for the state test. I like to make kids into bright adults that can make them a high class job. With all the information that I learned I think that I could use a little money for some materials to help other kids with there work and to help me get a good job using this as a part to help me on how im teaching the kids.

Hi my name is crystal I'm approximately frkm the bronx, im 19 years old & I'm tutoring a group of Chinese children at the Moment in bronx New York, I've come to find out that helping children is my motivation in life. I love helping children move forward and accomplish something that's very hard for them. In the past I've had private sessions with various children that needed help with english as well as Spanish . I take what I do very serious because children's parents depend on me to help they're child move forward with learning. I promise the children would love me I teach children so they would learn at they're own pace.

I have great experience tutoring elementary school children and even adults who need to brush up a little on their basic learning. I've been a tutor at my old elementary school for more than five years and I loved the experience so much! i love seeing kids happy when they finally understand something. I also have experience teaching my little nephews and helping them with their homework every night. I believe that learning should be fun and engaging! Still being young myself, I know exactly what it takes to grasp the younger generations attention and include that into learning. i also believe being hands in works as well. Kids love computers and are so tech savvy so why not also include that into the learning. The more fun added, the less the child will realize they're actually studying.

My style is more the inquiry method which is rapidly gaining popularity in the United States. Based on the scientific method, this teaching method can be used for virtually all subjects. Using inquiry-based learning takes a lot of time, energy, and planning, but it is often very effective. Students practice problem solving and critical thinking skills to arrive at a conclusion. This teaching method is extremely student-centered and student-directed, and can be modified for students at any level, reaching them where they are. My approch to aquiring a desire for learning is to assess the personality of the child's level of interest in what interest them. If they have a hobby, an interest or curiousity that they find relatable, it's important to attatch reading as an important component that enhances what they believe they already know.
