I have taught in both Government and Private Christian Missionary better schools in India and have received well recognition for my contribution towards my students.Having B.Ed always helped me in understanding the psychology of the kids and mentoring them accordingly and I have been very successful in doing so.

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past several years I have helped students achieve their potential in a wide variety of educational settings. I have taught several different subjects including social studies, math, reading, and French to students ranging from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Although my undergraduate degree is in history and my teacher certification is in social studies, I am fluent in French and am very good at mathematical subjects including geometry, trigonometry, and algebra.
I am very comfortable working with students of all ages. I am extremely patient and easy-going with a good sense of humor. I believe in enabling students to become proficient life-long learners. I try to encourage my students to look beyond the textbook in order to achieve greater enrichment in their lives. Learning should not stop at the school doors. In order to be successful in life, students need to le ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a liberal arts graduate in 1981 with a BA in sociology, magna cum laude, I was driven to achieve a level of excellence in my academic career. I have always loved school, and I have done well in all areas that I have studied. In 2003, I decided to pursue an associates degree in Veterinary Technology because of my love for animals. However, after giving this field several years of my life, I decided to move on. I would like to work in a field which uses my academic knowledge, and I believe tutoring one-on-one with students would be mutually satisfying.
When I tutored sixth-graders in 2000, I found it to be very rewarding. The students in Lowell came from varying backgrounds with different levels of proficiency in English. I was able to help them improve their reading and writing skills, as well as their mathematical skills. I am a compassionate, patient, caring person, and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a female in a predominantly male field I’ve had to formulate a self-teaching method since most of my professors were male and seemed to think and teach in similar ways. My goal when tutoring is to help the student discover which learning methods work best for them whether it’s memorization techniques such as mind-mapping and mnemonic acronyms and/or study skills, for example, establishing a study routine.
In the years prior to high school I struggled with math but I had a few excellent teachers (my mother included) that lifted my confidence and taught me that I can achieve my goals through perseverance, encouragement and mentoring. I realized that math is simply a step-wise pattern of correctly followed operations. While in high school and college I tutored underclassmen and classmates alike by correlating math to something they enjoy such as food or money. Obtaining a B.S. in C ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is in the classical form. I very much feel that with proper motivation and diligence a student must place the necessary effort into significant practice and application of material learned. I love working with children and have many years of experience in helping to motivate and coach students to achieve their very best. I believe that students must be guided in achieving knowledge and tutoring provides the very best because of the individual attention that can be provided to each student. Student should be encouraged with high standards of performance.
My direct teaching experience has been at the elementary level in all subjects. I have a year of remedial math instruction at the high school level. After 12 years of direct teaching the remainder of my career in education has been at the administrative level. Over the years I have tutored primarily in math but ... read more

Coming from a family of teachers, the importance of education has always been stressed to me. The emphasis was placed not only on succeeding academically, but also to gain a true understanding of the subject matter. I hold an Associates of Applied Science in Community Service and Leadership and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I also hold a Bachelors of Science in Family Studies with a concentration on early childhood education and graduated Summa Cum Laude. I have an extensive knowledge of reading, writing and grammar and have always scored well into the 90th percentiles on standardized tests in these areas. I completed studies in French I, Spanish II, Modern Greek, and am fluent in American Sign Language.
Working with children has always been my passion. I feel as though it is important to engage all different types of learners and to make them feel as if the classroom is a place where ... read more

I am an experienced educator who has a wide variety of experience in diverse school settings; public, private, alternative, and adult education. I am NH state certified in Social Studies (HQT) and Special Education. I also earned a masters degree in educational counseling at Southern Connecticut State U. I believe this combination of training and work experience works together in a way that I am able to work in a variety of settings and with a variety of student types. I am a holistic teacher in that I believe the student (and his/her needs) comes first and the subject comes second. I can tutor most subjects, offer behavior mentoring,and personal and college admissions counseling.
Know the student first, then teach the subject! I believe most students learn most effectively when teaching is aimed at their personal learning styles, interests and abilities wherever possible. I alway ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate I worked at the mathematics tutor lab in our department. As a PhD student I both taught and assisted in the teaching of mathematics courses at the university level. Also I have experience with privately tutoring elementary, jr. high and high school students.
I help point to the truth, aiding the student in discovery. I try to avoid being overly didactic, and prefer to work by asking questions. The most satisfying thing about teaching is being able to witness and participate in the process of comprehension.

A Little Bit About Me...

Previous students have often remarked on my practical teaching style, relying on real world examples and explanations for business and mathematics. The only way to remember information long term is to relate it to something tangible, especially in subjects like statistics and economics. Relating the ephemeral to the practical is important, and later allows for the information to be used in a real world setting much, much easier.
I have tutored people since third grade, and have recently graduated with my masters in business administration with honors. As consistently as I have tutored, I have also excelled in an academic atmosphere and would love to share my knowledge of test taking skills and subject knowledge. I have had a wide focus throughout my experiences, with emphasis on statistics, essay writing, and business theory, and I have also done university research on neurophy ... read more

Recently, I received my BS in Mathematics and BA in Physics, with honors. I am taking time off before entering graduate school and this position will surely be a fulfilling experience in the mean time. You will notice that I have been a tutor most of my college life; tutoring was my most fulfilling and enjoyable part- time job. I have tutored several Mathematics courses, including Geometry, Algebra, and Calculus since my sophomore year, both one-on-one and in groups with up to 20 students of all levels. I completed over 120 contact hours my last semester alone.
I have a passion for making students of different age groups grasp concepts of Mathematics in their own way. After evaluating the way the student understands different concepts, I will strive to make them understand the problems completely. The student and I will discuss what his/her difficulties are and we will work on them ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a very honest, laid back teacher. I ask a lot of my students, but I do not do so in an intimidating manner. I like to have conversations with my students about things which they don't even realize are related to the topic we are working on. My extensive experience with special needs students has taught me how to get through to students who may not necessarily want to do the work they are being asked to do. I believe this is my strongest asset as a potential tutor in your program. I have worked with students who are eager, yet want to learn, and I have worked with students who want nothing to do with school as well. I believe that all children respond to somebody who is honest and outgoing with them - someone who is willing to give of themselves, rather than simply asking the student to do all of the giving. The greatest compliment I have ever received was when a special education ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having a psychology degree from Dennison University I taught Autistic Children at the May School, a private residential setting on Cape Cod for a year. Following that experience I returned to graduate school to get a masters in Early Childhood Educ, k-3. After graduating I took a long term sub position in the special needs dept of an Elementary school. I then worked a year as a chapter one teacher in a public school system with children with language delays, as well as assisting in IEP preperation. I privately tutored a kindergarten student in reading for one summer.
Most of my work with delayed or special need students has been a positive reinforcement approach as well as hands on. I am extremely patient, kind and bring out the best in every child. I have a child with disablities so I know that all children are special in their own way.They all have different learning styles. I h ... read more
