...about fractions and oftentimes you're yelling at Shakespeare. I graduated from Yale with a degree in American Studies, and took all sorts of fun and arguably bizarre classes from building medical devices for babies, to learning Zulu, and analyzing German fairytales. And believe me, oftentimes things just don't make sense to me. But I've found that having someone (i.e. a tutor) around can help with finding alternative ways of approaching a problem/reading a sentence. I...

I've been tutoring formally and informally throughout the past seven years; during that time, I've developed my belief in a "person-first" approach to tutoring. To succeed, you need more than just some academic knowledge -- you need the right mindset and a confidence in your own abilities as well. I try to instill that into my students.

...my right hand anxiously flying across a lined sheet of paper with a #2 pencil held awkwardly, yet determinedly in my fingers. I remember the fast thoughts and the uncertain words finding their way from my head to my hand, miraculously arranged to make sense. I can remember how passionate I felt writing my first essay. These flashbacks are like dreams, silent whispers of the past that were written through the filter of untouched ideas...

...and The United States with this group. I also recorded an album with an artist called "Paleface" in 1993 and it did not sell many copies, so I decided to become a teacher as I always loved working with kids. I decided to become an ESL teacher because I myself spoke only Lithuanian when I entered kindergarten in 1967, when there was no such thing as ESL in schools yet. I got teased and harassed...

...in high school, I approached it differently at NYU, was extremely intrigued by it, and decided to pursue a minor in it. This is the same kind of change I would like to bring about in my students through effective communication and personalized learning styles. There is no universal way to study, and understanding how a student learns new a concept is imperative to obtaining success in any field. I have taught young children, high...

...in the situation many times myself. I find that the best way to grasp a difficult concept is to approach it from different angles. Everyone learns differently, and my goal is to find the best way to teach that resonates with your specific learning style.
