For that reason, I like tutoring foreign languages, since a foreign language is a process that doubles one's ability to communicate with others without the need for a translator or dictionary. However, I'd say test prep is my favorite subject to tutor, as the progress has...

...independently, primarily focusing on Algebra/Algebra 2, Physics, and Chemistry. Students have often said that I am a very clear, patient, and thorough tutor. I believe it's important to let students do as much of the work independently as possible so that they stay involved in the learning process, and I also find it valuable to relate previous knowledge to new material. But most of all, I just really enjoy the subjects I teach and love...

...I am able to relate to students, as I was a student myself. Education is a key element for success later in life and if we do not provide a strong backbone for our kids, they will not be able to achieve the goals or hopes they have. A classroom setting might not be enough for a child and with the extra tutoring they are able to get the confidence they need to excel on...

...instead of simply feeding them formulae and rules for them to regurgitate on an examination. As a 23 year old, I am not very far removed from either the ACT or the SAT, and feel as though this will help me better empathize with specific concepts and areas students are struggling with.

...small bits of information at a time and the process can easily be derailed by anxiety, missing previous information, poor study habits, or a psychological condition. I've worked with students with each of these problems (and more) and seen the vast majority improve their performance, which gives them confidence, which improves their performance even more. It’s incredibly rewarding to be a positive example for students and watching their confidence grow until they forget what it...

...English students develop theirs. My goal is to help my students raise their grades/test scores and let them grow into the wordsmiths they were meant to be! My sessions include: -learning about my student and their reason for hiring a tutor -setting goals and a time frame for achieving them -assessing their skills -providing assistance with their assignments, test prep, and skill development -wrapping up our sessions with quick assessments to test their knowledge I...

...I then spent two years teaching Reading, Remedial English, Religious Studies, History, and Service Learning at a private middle school in Massachusetts. I also ran the school's Slam Poetry Club, and coached both softball and volleyball.

Moreover, as an educator within the Baltimore Public School District, I understand the importance of education and have been exposed to and benefited from a wide range of teaching pedagogies and educational perspectives.

My teaching specialties are...

I am retired classroom teacher. I taught for 40 years in Kansas and Missouri. I have a wide range of experiences teaching in the International Baccalaureate program specializing in Economics and Extended Essays. I was also an IEP case manager/Special Education teacher. I enjoy working with students who need support with executive functioning, study skills, and organization.

I believe that education is the best, and sometimes only, way to level the playing field. I'm currently studying to be an elementary teacher and love working with students of all ages. Working with students on a daily basis has helped me to hone in on how to tailor lessons to individual students needs. I am excited to get the opportunity to continue this work through varsity tutors!
