MY PERSONAL STATEMENT
My passion, I have found over the past few years, lies in discovering. I am motivated by the possibility of what I might learn or see or do on any given day. By immersing myself in knowledge I realize everyday can be different because I am able to change my perspective. My goal in becoming a tutor is that I might be able to inspire that same passion in children and young adults, a passion that might result in better grades of course, but more importantly a better understanding of our world, themselves and their potential. It is not always easy to be enthusiastic about grammatical errors, or who won a war 400 years ago, but by linking elements of a given curriculum with how and why we live as we do today, studying becomes discovering. I am excited about helping your child start discovering his or her world, and making sure the facts don't just stick but turn into the tools they use to shape their character.
I have three years of after school teaching/homework help experience.
My strengths are ELA and Social Studies, Reading and Writing. Also knowledgeable in elementary and middle school Sciences.
I have experience with children from ages 0-15 after working as a nanny, day care teacher and youth service aid.
My teaching style is to keep the student engaged in subject matter by allowing open discussion as opposed to drilling information into them. I let them know when an answer is wrong, but explain to them why another is the right choice. I believe any subject matter can be fun and interesting if it is presented in the right way, and that is always how I approach teaching.
