Teaching has always remained a part and parcel of my life. Let's face it learning is an ongoing process that never cease to end. My first teaching experience began long back, when I used to tutor my fellow classmates in high school with their mathematics and science questions. The one big lesson I learned from many of the fellow classmates that I helped is, they all had the will to learn but just needed some one to explain the concept in a way that is easy for them to comprehend. This experie... Read more

I am interested in tutoring children and adults in reading. I have a strong belief that too many individuals are not fully educated in reading or need some extra tutoring. I also have an associate's degree in Visual Communications (Commercial Art) from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. I draw and paint animal portraits and animals in their natural habitat. I love animals and have been told there is warmth in my work. Last, I enjoy teaching phonetic reading. I did volunteer tutoring for ... Read more

I've always been interested in foreign languages and other cultures. While living in New York City, I hosted many international visitors and always enjoyed coaching them on their English. So a couple years ago, I decided to get a certificate in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) at The New School in New York City. The program focused on practical techniques and emphasized lessons that integrate grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, reading, writing, listening, and speakin... Read more

I graduated from Seton Hill University with a degree in elementary education and a minor in music. Shortly after graduation from college, I was married and lived in France. There I worked with a couple of young french students who wanted to learn English. I used "easy to read books" like The Cat in the Hat which delighted them and they learned quickly. Because I write children's stories, I am in touch with what appeals to children. We went back to France a number of years later with our c... Read more

From a young age my parents always told me to "take pride in my work". I will admit that there have been times when it has been difficult to find meaning in these words. Doesn't it feel wonderful, though, when you decide to produce something of which you are truly proud? At Brown University I became fascinated with the workings of the human brain. When I studied neuroscience I realized I had finally found something that not only ignited a passion inside me, but made me see things about ... Read more

As a tutor, my initial experience came during my undergraduate studies in Political Science, when I was selected to assist with conducting a new self-guided computer introductory course in American Government. I helped my fellow college students learn how our political system works, and found that I not only enjoyed doing so, but was able to explain unfamiliar or complicated ideas in an understandable way. My undergraduate career gave me a solid background in political science, with a foc... Read more
