"As a long-time teacher of English and humanities (and a life-long student of these subjects, as well!), I learn as much from students as they learn from me. I love seeing people connect what goes on in a classroom or a book with their own experiences, so that the academic subject - whatever it is - becomes built into the way they think about the world. Being an educated person means you have resources - information, ideas and mental flexibility - the springboard for creativity and problem solving. I feel I am a very fortunate person, and the right way to share my good fortune is to help other people expand their knowledge, find and fulfill their ...

"The students I worked with often had trouble staying organized and some had been diagnosed with attention issues. Using proven organizational techniques and reinforcement of certain study skills, I often saw marked improvement in the students I was helping after just a few sessions.
I can appreciate the needs of parents as well. Being a parent myself, I am familiar with the struggles of keeping a student successful."

"John's, I studied in a Socratic environment that fostered learning through discussion. I have brought this approach to every other part of my life; I find that asking questions is the first and best step to understanding anything. I believe that we are all capable of more than we think, and that any student, if encouraged to ask questions, can excel at any pursuit. While my most natural strengths are in the fields of language and literature, I am also well-trained in maths such as Geometry, Algebra, and Trigonometry. I also think that these subjects are fun. This may make me seem strange to young people plodding through textbooks, but I ...

"So I try to focus on HOW to think about a subject - how to parse what is important and significant, and what isn't. Because, let's face it, you're not always going to solve every homework problem, or get every test question correct. But if you can build a strong foundation, a firm understanding of the concepts that underlie a field of study, you will be able to organize your thoughts more elegantly, and deal with new information more efficiently. In my experience, students that figure out how to do this are able to approach any subject with confidence and proficiency.." ...

" After graduating college, I began teaching part-time at my religious school; I am currently teaching fifth graders various aspects of Judaism, from the prayer service, to morals and ethics, to learning about Israel, to reading and translating Hebrew. My general theory on tutoring is if someone can explain a subject or a problem back to you, then they can solve the same type of problem or perform the skill on their own. I will work through problems with students initially and explain any concepts they do not know or are having trouble applying. As we progress, they should be able to explain to me exactly what they are doing and why. I will ask ...

" I take the time to get to know students and learn what they need and how they work and learn best. I find out what their interests, abilities, strengths, and areas of frustration are, and use that to plan instruction. Tutoring is the perfect opportunity to hone in on one student and truly individualize instruction for that student to put them on a path to success.."
