- College Park , Maryland ( 20740 )

I am a social worker with over 20 years' experience working with children. I have enjoyed tutoring in both the home setting and the after school classroom. Regardless of the subject, I find the most effective way to achieve positive results is to first determine what type of learner a child is, whether visual or auditory. Based on experience I have learned some students learn better when information is presented to them visually and some learn better when things can be explained thoroughly. ... Read more

I very much enjoy teaching and tutoring and have done a great deal of that. As a tutor, my goal is to help the student learn as much as possible and do their best in the course. Although I know the subject material, the objective is not to hear myself talk, but to communicate the topic to the student. As such, there is no bad (or “dumbâ€) question. The student is welcome to ask whatever he/she wants. I have tutored students for several years in high school economics, undergraduate intro... Read more
