Learning is Fun!

During college, I tutored a local high-school student who was struggling in her chemistry class. Right away we developed a productive working relationship and in almost no time my student's grades improved significantly - she went from receiving below average scores to As. My student, her mother and I were beside ourselves with delight - I would absolutely love the opportunity to reproduce these results with other students. I am a strong believer in starting with a student's strengths, build... Read more

Comprehensive Writing Instruction Made Easy!
My interest in teaching lies in my desire to empower anyone who is in a learning environment. Over the years I have tutored college students, I often encounter students who are struggling with their self-confidence as much as they are with where to place a semi-colon. By meeting the learner where they are in the process of writing, I learned that it is much easier for a student to grasp a concept, exercise their knowledge and master a challenge when they felt supported. Perhaps more importan... Read more
Corrina
Specializing in Test Preparation & Strategies
I believe that if you give a student a system for learning, they can achieve anything. I find out what a student knows, so time isn't wasted repeating it, and then break down what hasn't been mastered into simple chunks so the student is not overwhelmed. By adapting my teaching method to the student, tremendous results can be achieved. My educational background is in English, but I have a lot of work experience using mathematics. I taught English SAT Prep for Sylvan, and my strategy was... Read more

Over the past five years, I have tutored students from age nine to fifty with diverse learning goals and obstacles. Whether the subject is math, French, grammar, reading comprehension, or music, I enjoy helping each student build confidence and independent learning skills in an environment of patience and positivity. I believe that creating a space where students feel comfortable and supported enables them to meet learning goals and overcome emotional obstacles like anxiety and low self-estee... Read more

Since retiring as School Superintendent I have missed the educational environment tremendously. Throughout my 28 years serving in public education, my greatest professional satisfaction came in the classroom. Thus, I have continued to serve as a substitute teacher. I taught English for 25 years. Subsequent to my retirement I have spent weeks and months as a long- and short-term substitute teacher. I hope that there are young people who might benefit from my teaching experiences. I am willi... Read more
