I am a graduate from Cornell University where I received a bachelor's degree in Biological Engineering with a minor in Mechanical Engineering. For several years, I have always had a passion for tutoring/teaching others around me whether they were children, classmates or adults much older than I. From my studies, my favorite subjects to help with were Mathematics and Physics; they are closely integrated with each other and personally it is rewarding when my students understand concepts that they initially struggled with. As for my past tutoring experience, I volunteered teaching GED courses around the Brooklyn area. I also took up private one to one sessions with locals who requested my help in subjects. Currently I am teaching an after-school program where I show middle school students STEM related topics through hands on activities. I am also volunteering with SAT Math through Brooklyn College on Saturdays and I am a part time bartender around the Park Slope area. When I am not busy working, I enjoy cycling, playing video games, and just kicking it back with friends.

A little about myself: I am currently a High School Science Teacher at Eustis High. I teach Environmental and Forensic Science. I graduated from Florida International University with a BS in Marine Biology. For about five years I worked with Dr. Joel Trexler and Dr. Kevin Boswell working on the spatio-temporal patterns in the distribution, behavior, and foraging of fish in the Everglade canals using advanced fisheries sonar techniques. I inherited my project from a graduated MS student and my senior thesis was responsible for the previously overlooked role of submerged vegetation and structural complexity on predator prey interactions. I bring a lot of my research experience in to the classroom. My main goal is to teach so that there is understanding and comprehending among the students, and not just memorizing.I love teaching! I believe that education is the best weapon we can arm ourselves with. I will do my best to teach you the material that you need to know in manner that you will understand and remember beyond a test or a class.

I graduated from Reed College with a B.A. in physics, and have four years of experience in tutoring. My areas of expertise include physics, math, and essay writing. I believe that most challenges are easy to overcome if looked at from the right perspective, so when I tutor, I always try to have the student realize how capable they really are by giving them the tools they need to work on their own.

I have recently retired from full-time work in education after almost 30 years. During those years I have taught first grade, fourth grade, seventh grade and high school and have served as the middle school principal, curriculum specialist and assistant school administrator. Considering teaching a great profession, I have always valued the role that education can make in the life of an individual.I returned to school twice to receive first a M.Ed. then for a PB Certificate in TESOL in order to sharpen my own skills as a teacher. Learning can be stimulating and I work to help students feel that energy and joy. My reward is that 'light in the eye', 'I got it!' look when genuine understanding takes place. To help students get there, I try to design lessons that build from what is known to what is new, going one step at a time, so that all students can experience success. I am strongest in the language arts subjects; reading, reading comprehension, literature, writing, writing structures, and grammar, but also love history, the elementary level sciences and math.I love being outdoors and so my hobbies include hiking, biking, and camping. When indoors I enjoy reading and experimenting with new recipes.

I recently graduated with a PhD from Columbia University, where I taught undergraduates in music, anthropology, cultural studies, and writing. I sought to engage students by relating classroom material to the students’ own interests in music, culture, and world affairs. With a certificate in innovate pedagogy from the Teagle Institute, moreover, I bring new media tools into my pedagogic approach, helping students explore material from a variety of angles. Such interactive approaches complement and expand upon more traditional activities, helping students learn to become reflexive about their own thought processes and academic output. My own experience with AP English and Spanish, GRE, TOEFEL and TESOL test preparation and test design makes a strong test prep teacher.I have taught ESL, English reading and composition, Portuguese, anthropology, cultural studies, and music to a variety of learners in a variety of countries. In South Korea, I taught composition and analytical skills to high-achieving middle and high school students, working with both large and small classes and tutoring a high school junior one-on-one. In both Santiago and New York City, I taught English to small groups of adults with proficiencies ranging from advanced to absolute beginner. I have also privately tutored adults in Portuguese in New York.All of these experiences have heightened my sensibilities to different learner needs, particularly with regards to language learning, and I enjoy finding creative ways to convey information to students with different learning styles.

I am a senior at the University of Miami with a double major in Biochemistry and Economics. I have a passion for dance and I am very friendly and look forward to working with you! I have over four years experience with tutoring, and this experience allowed me to work closely with children of all ages on various assignments. I was able to offer my assistance and teach effectively and efficiently without simply giving the correct answer. The key to tutoring is to reinforce material in a way that the student is led to solving the problem on his or her own rather than being told what the correct answer is.

What makes a great tutor is a solid knowledge of the basics, good communication, and the ability to connect with people and to see things from their perspective. My patience, listening skills, and communication skills developed from over 300 hours of experience have sharpened those characteristics. Through countless experience in the past, I have an excellent idea of what techniques work best for what types of learners. I also believe that through tutoring, not only should you walk away knowing the material but also knowing how to learn and knowing how you learn best.

My more than 30 years teaching experiences in Asia, Europe, Africa, and the United States, have given me an understanding and appreciation of multiculturalism and diverse learning styles that better enable me to interact with students.I am a graduate of Boston University (M.A. International Relations) and Saint Michael's College (M.A. Teaching English as a Second Language).I specialize in teaching business communications and English language skills.

I fell in love with Biology when I first took AP biology in high school and went on to major in Biology at Carleton College where I got my B.A. In college, I first began tutoring local high school students in AP biology and found joy sharing my love and knowledge of biological systems. From high school throughout college I have studied French, and lived in Paris with a host family for a summer and would love to help beginning or intermediate French students with grammar or conversation.After graduating, I worked as an AmeriCorps tutor at an elementary school in Boston and primarily tutored in math and reading. I honed my tutoring skills and have experience accommodating lessons to students with different learning styles. While working as a tutor I also have been studying and taking the MCAT in preparation to attend medical school. As someone who has personally benefitted from tutoring I am excited to help my students accomplish whatever goals they are striving to achieve through target tutorials and carefully planned lessons for each individuals strengths.

I believe that everyone has a story. We can enjoy them all if we're willing to listen and just "be" in the moment. There are many times when I shake my head and think to myself "only me". I find shenanigans in the most unlikely places, I'm always being told not to make friends in the grocery, and I am a huge nerd (self proclaimed). I am married, and I have five children. All of my children have four feet and tails (betcha I got you for a second). I have two dogs and three cats.I am interested in all things crafty, and I spend more time on Pinterest than I'd care to admit. I love making things, and I take great joy in spending hours in the craft studio that is set up in my basement. I also love shoes. I have a Carrie Bradshaw sized obsession, and although I couldn't draw you a house with all the tools in the world, I can sketch outlines of shoes and have several in a book. In my next life, I want to design them. I also love being outside, and when the weather is nice, you can find me on the deck, in my hammock with a book, my notebook, and sun tea. I also obnoxiously take pictures of everything.I started writing when I was in middle school, and I have not stopped since. I used to write stories about my friends and I would often type them (on a TYPEWRITER!) and give them as gifts. My family didn't own a computer until I was in high school. I continue to write flash fiction and poetry as well as creative non-fiction. I have been to several writers' retreats and I was a summer fellow last year in the Meadowbrook Writing Project.I detest the poetry of T.S. Eliot, but I owe him for the day I decided to go to graduate school. I felt changed after leaving a modern poetry class one day, and I credit that class with helping to turn the tide for me.My favorite writers include James Joyce (although I have not finished Ulysses), Sylvia Plath, and I adore Frank McCourt. I also enjoy some more modern fiction, and some of my favorites are Cecelia Ahern and Marissa de los Santos.I teach writing, and there is not another job in this world that I ever want to do. I am a writer, and that's what makes me whole.
