Patricia A.

Elementary School Tutor • +23 Subjects

As a retired educator with over 20 years of classroom experience and a dual degree in History and Education from Monmouth College, I am passionate about fostering a love for learning in my students. My certification allows me to teach all subjects for grades Pre-K through 8, but I have found my niche in tutoring language arts, reading, writing, and history for students in grades 2 through 8 and math for students in grades 3 and 4. I thrive on creating engaging lessons that emphasize comprehension and critical thinking, often using mentor texts to make learning enjoyable and relevant. I have spent the last seven years tutoring students virtually, honing my ability to connect with learners of all ages, including adults. My teaching philosophy centers on understanding each student's unique needs and tailoring my approach accordingly, ensuring that they not only meet their academic goals but also develop confidence as lifelong learners. As a lifelong reader and writer, I bring my enthusiasm for literature and history into each session, sparking meaningful discussions that connect past events to contemporary issues. I believe that every child has the potential to succeed, and I am committed to helping them discover their strengths in a supportive and engaging environment.

Marcia

ACCUPLACER Language Use Tutor • +35 Subjects

Educating students has been my passion, originally inspired many years ago by a warm and caring English teacher. I wanted to become just like her, so that's what I did! If you would like to know some personal information , I am originally from upstate New York with 3 adult children, plus 5 more whom we have raised over the years. 3 grandchildren and 1 great-grandson are also happy additions to our family. Should I also mention our cute little pets? Those are a dog and 2 cats. For me, the reward in teaching is knowing that I am helping students with skills and understanding that will lead to success in life. The best job in the world is having the opportunity to tutor motivated students who want to learn!

Kashish

ACCUPLACER Arithmetic Tutor • +59 Subjects

I am a student at Brown University pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering. In high school, I took a multitude of AP and college courses, so I am qualified to work with students on challenging material. I took high-level mathematics courses at a local university while in high school and participated in gifted programs as well as internship and research opportunities. My most recent tutoring endeavors include: tutoring math and reading for a variety of grades from K-12 and working for a private tutoring company as an SAT instructor, leading test-prep classes for high school students. I continue to pursue my educational and personal goals while at Brown. Although I am most experienced in the maths and sciences, I also love teaching English subjects as well as social sciences. I also value community involvement and have a love for the arts. I have danced for more than 15 years, on company teams and for benefit events in several communities. I also really enjoying figure skating, swimming, and participating in robotics programs and other enrichment activities. I have a passion for learning about and tutoring the maths and sciences because I have always been curious about the world around us, and science is a process of searching for fundamental and universal principles that govern causes and effects in the universe. I enjoy tutoring students for the opportunity to aid them in their quest for knowledge and to help them to question the world around them. I am a strong proponent of education and am excited to guide other students, helping them achieve their educational goals!

Tina

Algebra Tutor • +24 Subjects

I received my Bachelor's Degree from Temple University and my Master's Degree from Saint Joseph's University both in Philadelphia, PA. As a teacher who is state certified to teach Elementary Education, Middle School Math and Middle Science, I bring almost 30 years of classroom teaching and tutoring experience to the table. The majority of that time has been spent in the middle school math and science content areas, however, I am proficient at tutoring Middle School Math, Algebra, Geometry and Algebra II as well as high school biology and physical science. In my teaching career, I have acquired a plethora of experience with teaching students with various learning differences as well as those students who come from traditionally undeserved populations. . My belief is that all students are capable of learning, they just need the right teacher at the right point in their learning path. I always strive to be that teacher for the students that I teach!
