I am an enthusiastic teacher who enjoys creating a relaxing and effective learning environment while sparking student interest in mathematics.

I was born in The Netherlands and have lived on the West Coast (CA and AZ) since the age of 7. I attended Northern Arizona University and obtained a BS in Sociology and a BA in French in 2013. My junior year of college, I had the amazing opportunity to study sociology in Montpellier, France. During college, I always stayed involved in with volunteer organizations and have worked with everything from building trails in the wild forests of Utah to befriending home-bound seniors get around easier. In life, I always try to surround myself with different people and environments.After working in a retirement home for a year, I decided to join Teach for America and began teaching in rural Eastern North Carolina. I had the pleasure of teaching second grade for two years. The students had skill levels and interests of all kinds, and I truly learned how to adapt and facilitate. Although we were an underfunded district in a low-income rural area, we created a classroom centered around exploration and diligence. By the end of the year, students were telling me things about the world that I didn't know!The best moment is when a student figures or learns something on their own because of the tools you have given them. That's what makes me excited about tutoring one-on-one in New York City.I enjoy tutoring elementary subjects because they can be done in very creative and engaging ways. Even math can be drawn, sung or painted. My sessions will strive to create real connections and interactions with the content.I can also tutor in French for all ages.Outside of tutoring, I am working on an educational app that would coach parents on how to help their students with academic vocabulary. I also enjoy music, art, biking, hiking, traveling and exploring coffee shops.

I am a 2010 graduate from The Pennsylvania State University. I have experience working with children and teens with special needs. I am currently an autistic and emotional support teacher at Child Guidance Resource Centers. I also have experience working in the general education classroom as a substitute and assistant. I have always enjoyed working with children. I started coaching soccer at 15 years old and babysat frequently. I have a passion for teaching and enjoy teaching all subjects. I believe every child can learn and it is my job to teach them the way they learn best. I am very creative and think outside the box.

A great education is one of the best resources a person could have at their disposal. These words are even more true in today’s society. I graduated magna cum laude with a B.A. in Psychology and Chemistry from Case Western Reserve University and obtained my J.D. from Emory University School of Law. I enjoyed helping students to achieve their greatest academic potential. As such, I have been tutoring students in addition to my job as a full time attorney practicing in a midsize firm. I am well versed with various humanities and scientific subjects, and I have a great deal of experience in tutoring student for standardized testing such as the SAT, ACT, and LSAT.

Teaching has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I am currently a senior at the University of Illinois and am majoring in elementary education; my concentration is language arts. In December, I will be certified to teach kindergarten through eighth grade. This summer and fall I will be continuing my education to receive educational endorsements in middle school, mathematics, social studies, and science. Up until this point, I have experienced teaching students of various ages in many different settings. Beginning in high school, I had my first placement in a third grade classroom in a suburb of Chicago, which solidified my decision to become a teacher. Soon after, I continued my education in college with the desire to eventually obtain a teaching license. In college, I have experienced four field placements in kindergarten, first, third, and fourth grades. I have also completed observation hours at Wredling Middle School in St. Charles. Each of those experiences allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of how to meet the needs of all learners. I recently passed the Education Teacher Performance Assessment (edTPA), and simultaneously completed student teaching in a third grade classroom in Danville, IL. The school as a whole is very financially and racially diverse, and I believe it is my most important placement yet for those reasons. Learning about the different cultures, backgrounds, interests, and needs of my students is allowing me to provide instruction in a more meaningful way. Outside of the classroom, I communicated with the families of my students and provided ways in which they are able to further assist their children. I am thrilled to bring the knowledge from my experiences working with students and their families into tutoring. Giving students one-on-one instruction can be extremely beneficial to their overall academic success.Outside of tutoring, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I have five sisters and three brothers, some of which are half and step siblings. Having a large family has given me a lot of patience, which has helped me in my career thus far. I also love to exercise. When I was in fifth grade I began gymnastics. I competed all-around throughout my middle school and high school years. My favorite events were bars and floor. Although I have many interests and hobbies outside of tutoring, most of my time is spent teaching. I am excited to get to know you and assist you in any way I can!

I am a sitting CPA here in Georgia. I received my BA from the University of Alabama in Accounting with a 4.0 GPA. I have a significant amount of expertise in Accounting, Finance, and Economics. I hold a Masters of Taxation and work at a Big 4 Accounting Firm. I also enjoy tutoring through High School level Math, Science, English, and Social Studies.

My name is Roberto, but most people just call me RJ! I am currently a 4th/5th Grade Math Teacher in Miami, FL. Before this, I taught 5th Grade Math and Science in West Palm Beach, FL. Before that, I taught Geometry and Living Environments for 2 years in the South Bronx (I am a native of New York). If you like humor, high energy, and tons of patience, then hopefully I can help :-)

In the winter of 2004, I had the pleasure of earning my first degree from Texas Southern University. I received a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology. From there I entered the classroom and began my teaching career. I began working with at risk students at an alternative school for behavioral concerns. I noticed that many of the students there were smart but had behavioral characteristics that hindered their learning process. I started as a teacher aide but enjoyed it so much that I decided to become certified. I chose to receive my certification in grades 4-8 in all content areas. My personal belief is that these are those most critical times of a students educational career. My desire to want to become a counselor blossomed in those first four years. I made the decision in 2008 to work towards a Masters' degree in School Counseling. I attended University of Houston-Clear Lake and obtained my degree in 2012. During the road to my degrees, I had the pleasure of teaching middle school students in all content areas. Now that I have been a school counselor for the past fours years I have come to miss the classroom environment. There is so much joy in watching students learn something new and the excitement they present. The primary subjects that I tutor are English & Language Arts and middle school level Math. Essay writing would probably be considered my favorite subject since I consider myself a writer as well. Many students struggle with the subject because they are not sure what to say. My advice to students is always to follow your knowledge of the topic and let your mind flow freely. When working with students I try to get to know them as an individual so that learning can be tailored to their needs. There are no two brains that think alike and therefore should be taught using different methods at times. One of the largest components that becomes a hurdle in student learning is study skills or lack thereof. Before I start working with a student I always investigate their studying style. Based on the method they utilize I do my best to tweak the needed changes to maximize student learning. Whenever my time is not devoted to educating I love to listen to music and write poetry. I try to be a student of all genres of music because I believe songs tell the story of a person. My favorite sports are basketball and boxing although I find myself drawn to anything that has a competitive nature.

I am a graduate of the University of Miami with a Bachelor of Science in Health Science and Psychology. I am currently working as a medical scribe upon matriculation into medical school. I worked as a tutor for Kumon Learning Center while in high school and continued to tutor during college.My favorite students to work with are elementary and middle school students, but I am able to help with high school students as well. I have the most experience in tutoring reading, math and science-related subjects.My teaching style embodies two main qualities, the development of productive habits and exposure to a wide variety of study methods. I believe in consistent encouragement and repetition in order to achieve one's desired academic success.In my free time, I enjoy playing basketball with my friends, going running and working out at least 4 times a week.

I am a fresh, energetic, and experienced teacher and coordinator looking to teach and tutor particularly in the areas of Special Education and Intervention. I strongly believe in a teaching environment that promotes learning. I think this can best be accomplished in a classroom in which the children feel at home and are unafraid of mistakes. Each child should feel part of a team supported by their teacher and by their classmates. I have had felt the greatest satisfaction watching with pride, a child making strides in his academic growth and social development and knowing that I had a role in contributing to this self-confidence through my guidance and support. My goal is to help students to love school and to believe in themselves.A school teacher is entrusted with young, impressionable minds. Teaching is an invaluable trust which brings with it the responsibility to encourage inquiry, imagination, and creative thought as well as the responsibility of instilling self-confidence in these young minds. One of the most important roles of a school teacher is to guide young students through many new experiences and realities with a positive attitude and an open heart; every child deserves this. I think children should not miss out on using and appreciating their own imagination and exploring their world with valuable curiosity. Inquiry is the best way to encourage education. Albert Einstein once said, "It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education." If a student is not free to question and imagine, they would be missing out on an essential element of life. I am determined to create inquiry within my teaching and to encourage each child to be original in their own way. As expressed by Jean Piaget, "The principle goal of education is to create men who are capable of doing new things, not simply of repeating what other generations have done men who are creative, inventive and discoverers." (Swiss Psychologist, 1896-1980)I am a teacher and a student of education, open to change and accepting of different views and concepts. I have studied in Rhode Island, taking education courses in Sicily and in my senior year of college I studied history in the Institute of Fine and Liberal Arts at Palazzo Rucellai in Florence. I chose to study and live abroad so as to make the most of my education while widening my perspective. These experiences have added to what I can bring to my classroom and students. I am also a firm believer in extra curricular activities. Children who are involved with school activities and teachers who can be seen outside the classroom, both enhance school spirit and pride. Such activities and interaction deepen the bonds between the school, faculty and students, and allow for each student to maximize their educational experiences. I have a Masters of Science in Literacy Education and a Post Masters Certificate in Special Education. Being that I have taught previously in Rhode Island, Washington DC, and New York, I have been able to develop an understanding on both individual state standards and Common Core Standards.I think you will find that my wide range of skills and background in both general education, special education and literacy education will be very helpful for your child.
