I am currently a High School Spanish teacher in Port Washington. I also teach English as a Second Language to adults at night at Suffolk County Community College. I firmly believe that anyone is capable of mastering a new language, it is just a matter of finding what method of learning works best for each person.

Educating students is like a dream come true for me; I have been avidly involved in the education field for a few years now and it is my passion to not only teach but to learn from teaching. In order to teach students, I believe patience, understanding, and resolve are all important in assisting students. Through tutoring, it is my hope to help coach students to feel more comfortable with their academia. My area of strength is communication and adaptability; the best way to help a student in understanding is through proper and an appropriate amount of communication. My adaptable nature allows me to teach a wide variety of students and I am looking forward to the positive impact I will have on students and it is my overall goal to help each and every student succeed, both in academia and within life skills they retain from the academia.

I am a country mouse from New England who moved to the big city for college. I studied English at St. John's University in Queens and then put that knowledge to work for my Master's degree in Library Science (also at St. John's). Since I cannot imagine life without being in school, I'm now working on a post-graduate certificate in Education.By day, I'm a school librarian at a large Catholic high school in Queens, where I work and team up with teachers to help students learn about research and academic writing. I also work with students one on one to encourage reading and a love of books. I work frequently to help struggling readers find books that will help them gain confidence and make reading a part of their lives.I love my job; I am passionate about reading and writing. The best part of being a librarian is helping a student find just the right book - a book that will help to spark a lifelong love of reading in them. I firmly believe that the way to get better at reading is to read something you love, and good writers are avid readers too. I spend a lot of my day job coaching students through research-based papers, but it's always a great experience to work with other types of writing, from polishing a knock-your-socks-off college essay to work-shopping creative writing.Over the years, I've tutored at the high school, middle school, and college levels. I've worked with just about every subject, but my specialty really is in Reading and Writing. I love helping students with subjects I know they'll be using in every aspect of their lives. I remember in high school when writing a strong essay finally clicked for me - it was the best feeling in the world. Now, I get that same satisfaction from helping other people find a way to make writing click for them.I love New York and cannot imagine living anywhere else. I love to spend my free time in museums, shows, and just soaking up all of this fantastic city. The best part of New York? Taking the subway means I don't have to worry about keeping my eyes on the road, and instead I can keep them buried in a good book.

I believe it takes many skills and attributes to be an outstanding teacher. Among them are: patience, a positive attitude, flexibility, understanding and being a good listener. Children are very perceptive and I believe they know a lot more than we think they do about people. One thing I would like to say about myself, is that I consider myself to be a team-player. Having worked in the business world, prior to becoming a teacher, I found that the most successful people were those who worked as a team. I believe that this can also be translated in the school environment. We are all working for the same team, the students! This means working together as educators, and always being open to ideas and suggestions from peers.

I am graduating this fall from UChicago with my Master's of Arts in Social Sciences. I have been doing psychology research for four years, and hope to make a career as a research analyst. Over the years, I have done a lot of tutoring, I was a writing tutor at my undergraduate university's Writing Center, and I have been a tutor at an after school program my year in Chicago. I am very passionate about tutoring, and my specialties are writing and psychology/research. I am an introverted but easygoing and friendly person, and I love to read, play flute, go to the beach, and cook!

I entered the field of education because I am passionate about providing students with the resources they need to thrive and be confident in their academic skills. I believe in building on students' strengths and providing a variety of strategies that access different learning styles. I am currently working as a 2nd and 3rd grade Special Education Teacher in New Jersey. I have a M.Ed from Rutgers University, and I hold a dual certification as a Teacher of Students with Disabilities and an Elementary School Teacher (K-5). I look forward to meeting with you to discuss your child's success!

I am most recently a graduate of New York University having received an MA in Applied Quantitative research. Previous to my graduate studies, I received a BA in Theatre and a BA in Sociology from the University of New Mexico. In the Fall of 2015 I will become a PhD candidate at the CUNY Graduate Center in Sociology. Other than tutoring, I also work as an instructor of English Language Arts as part of a weekend, after-school, and Summer program for 1st generation children in New York City. I tutor in a wide variety of subjects from Writing to Math to Social Studies. I am passionate about education because I believe it is the foundation for building a just society, and I enjoy teaching and learning from people of all ages from elementary to college-age. I especially enjoy preparing students for standardized testing, working to make a mandatory and unpleasant experience into something that can bring them pride and enjoyment. When not teaching and studying, my hobbies include working in Theatre doing everything from acting to set building to grant-writing.

I graduated cum laude from Bowdoin College in the spring of 2021 with an Education and Political Science double major and a Sociology minor. I begin a two-year FAO Schwarz Fellowship placement in September of 2021 at Jumpstart an organization dedicated to providing high quality early education to children between 0-5 with the vision that all children enter kindergarten ready to succeed. Following my fellowship placement, I plan to attend law school.I believe that education is the bedrock of society, therefore, I am passionate about finding opportunities to support students in their educational endeavors. In the fall of 2020 I babysat/tutored twin fourth graders and guided them through their virtual schooling. This included helping them with homework, answering questions, providing further prompts/assignments to understand the material at a conceptual level, and providing support and encouragement when they struggled.My teaching philosophy stems from my strong belief in the importance of social emotional learning. The first step in all of my teaching and tutoring experiences has been to establish trust and comfort with my student. I strive to create a learning environment where students feel very comfortable asking questions, telling me if they need me to try to explain something in a different way, and in general see me as someone who is cheering for them and will do anything to help them succeed.My experiences tutoring primarily are from my pandemic tutoring of 4th graders and mentoring/teaching middle schoolers in college. Additionally, I wrote a thesis surrounding presidential power and legislative influence, therefore, I have spent hours and hours honing the craft of writing. Therefore, essay editing is also my forte. I feel confident tutoring and working with students in any of the subjects I have listed.I look forward to the opportunity to work with your amazing student!

I'm a PhD in the molecular sciences. Although I've done a lot of schoolwork, I appreciate the difficulty some students have with difficult subjects (mine was Calculus), and trying to concentrate when studying is the last thing I want to think about.My goal is to help you plan out your studies so that you can maximize your potential with the minimum amount of work. Sometimes it's hard for some teachers to break down a complex topic for burgeoning learners because they themselves approach it from a higher level and can't think at a low enough level.After a year of science outreach in high-need Nashville public schools, I've found that I have a knack for breaking down complex concepts to an easy-to-digest format that incorporates math and literature comprehension into real scientific problems.Fortunately, the more I learned about a subject matter, the easier it has been to find meaning and see how it fits into a bigger picture.I want to help you understand things in a big-picture way with real-life examples (usually in the hard sciences). This hopefully will help you with comprehension and memorization.

I am currently a senior at the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College at Arizona State University training to become a Spanish teacher. I have tutored some of my college classmates in various subjects over the years and have roughly a year and a half of experience working in a high school teaching Spanish to students.My main area of expertise within my content area is Spanish literature of Latin America, but I also have extensive education in Spanish grammar, vocabulary, and culture. In addition to my education in Spanish, I have also had training in English composition and teaching English as a second language.During my year and a half of teaching in high school classes, I have had the opportunity to teach several English language learners. I believe that I am able to help English language learners particularly well because I am open minded and see their native cultures and languages as assets rather than burdens.I use similar practices for both Spanish and English language learners. These practices include using pictures, PowerPoint presentations, music, and videos. I mix these with some more traditional practices (guided notes, advanced organizers, handouts), but I have found using technology to be one of the best ways to learn a language.I love to communicate with people and discover new ways of looking at the world from them. I hope that I can learn just as much from my tutees as they can learn from me.
