Award-Winning Reading Tutors in Morris County, NJ

...University and William Paterson University. I have also tutored extensively, both at Bloomfield College and privately, helping students to brainstorm, draft, research, revise, and edit their writing; as well as to be better readers and analysers of literature (non-fiction and all creative writing). In addition, I am a published short-story writer whose work has appeared in national journals (Lunchticket.org, 2015; Folio, Spring 2014; PIF, 2011); and I have strong ties to writing communities in NJ...

...is and always has been an important part of my life. I am currently a second grade teacher, but I have worked in many different settings with various types of students including children with behavioral, emotional, and learning difficulties as well as gifted and talented students. I have also tutored several students over the past few years in math, reading, and writing. I enjoy tutoring because it allows for the instruction to be tailored towards...

...each student's individual needs. I'll take the time to know you and what you want to learn before the tutoring begins, so as not to waste your time going over things you already know. I firmly believe that writing, reading, and test-taking are skills that can be learned by anyone and that personal, one-to-one instruction is the best way for students to go beyond what they are able to learn in school. My tutoring is...

...curiosity and editing! I tutored English writing at my alma mater, Penn State; my experience there sparked an interest to continue working as an educator. I've tutored high school and middle school students. I've enjoyed every part of it and love when I see my students finally "get it." My goal as your tutor isn't to make you "like" writing. Instead, I'm dedicated to helping you figure out your learning style, and how you can...

...Mathematics in 2010. I am married and have one beautiful daughter. Although I love being a teacher, my favorite thing to do is tutor! I really enjoy working with kids one-on-one to help them overcome a hurdle or brush up on their skills, and I love seeing the excitement and pride in their eyes when they finally "get" it! It is one of the true joys of my job. As I mentioned, Language Arts and...

...student at Princeton with four years of tutoring experience working with students of various ages, especially high schoolers. I enjoy working with a wide variety of subjects including Math, English, Writing, History, and ACT and SAT test prep. I love finding creative ways to make learning fun and enjoyable. I have also found that students learn best when they have a tutor that genuinely invests in their success and helps them to see their own...

...boosting my pupil's confidence. Many students feel that they are simply not cut out to understand material, and this feeling is the actual block to learning. My students should and will know this fear is just not true, and I make it my mission to prove it by the time the session is over. I will show them that they came in daunted, and they finished solving the problems that originally intimidated them. There is...

...one-on-one setting. My content areas are Foreign Language and Music and I love to tutor both. I specialize in Spanish from beginning to advanced levels (Grammar, Reading, Writing Speaking, Culture), Basic Italian, Music Theory, English (Grammar, Reading, Composition), and Piano Performance and Technique. I am fluent in Spanish while my native language is English, so I am extremely compassionate for the struggles of learning a second language. My personal experience can aid to the perspective...

...middle school, I have seen children thrive and excel in otherwise difficult subjects if they have the tools to approach learning. I am well versed in differentiated instruction, am creative, and always get to really know my students and their learning styles so that I can help them. In addition to my teaching experience, I have given many workshops on the Common Core State Standards and know what is required to be successful on state...

...use topics that the students are interested in as a way of giving examples, so the students often think we are simply having a conversation about their favorite topic when they are actually learning something in the background without even realizing it. In my off hours, I enjoy stories of all sorts, be that movies or video games, the odd television show (though I don't watch much TV), and lots of books. I also am...
