From the time I was 7 years old, I’ve wanted to be a teacher. I taught Sunday School all through high school. During that time, my parents opened our home to exchange students who were enrolled at the local community college and did not speak English. I spent 4 years helping them to decode their textbooks and enjoying every minute of it. I graduated from Elms College in 2001 with an BEd in Elementary Education and a BS in psychology. After teaching first grade at a Catholic School for 2 years, I enrolled at Westfield State College for my master’s in reading. I continued to work full-time while pursuing my degree and graduated in May 2006. I...

Every student is an opportunity to learn a new way to teach. Since all learners are different I do my best to be an actively flexible educator and be aware of my student's potential and limitations. The importance of communicative learning is emphasized in my lessons, and in addition to my academic background highlighting English writing, speaking, and grammar, I also continue to develop myself as an educator via conferences and mentors in my field.

My service stands out because of my dedication and patience when working with studens. Although relatively new to the field, I have experience working with a wide-range of learners and have been able to be successful in working with students, despite the challenges they face as learners. I most enjoy watching my students grow in confidence. Witnessing the evolution and transformation of my students into confident learners is extremely fulfilling. I love working with a diverse group of students, with various backgrounds, interests, and skills, and being able to find common ground to develop a positive relationship....

I am a first grade teacher, and a trained Orton-Gillingham tutor. I was trained at The Carroll School, where I worked tutoring several students.

Hello! My name is Adam, I'm an Eagle Scout, a multi-instrumentalist, and a Catholic Christian. I was a Cornell Engineering student for two years because I loved math and disliked writing, but then switched into Religious Studies because it turned out I liked college reading and writing more than college math! It is very important to me that students learn to have a sense of victory when they learn, whether they're struggling and need to learn victory, or whether they are already successful and need to channel their potential- this is as true for math, where there are correct answers, as it is in writing, where there are more complete answers...

I am a charismatic, engaging teacher with extensive teaching experience with students ranging from age 4 to adulthood. I have taught ESL abroad to young learners and adults, and I currently tutor adults in ESL online. As a PhD candidate in English, I have taught a wide variety of English courses on the college level, mainly focused on literature and creative writing. In my personal life, I am a voracious reader and an endlessly curious person. I love learning, and I love imparting what I've learned to others. While I specialize in all thing English-related, I am also knowledgable about history, and I am more than capable of teaching all subje...

Hi. I am a semi-retired man with advanced degrees. I can teach every subject (I was a biology "pre-med " and English double major) except foreign languages and including math up to and including algebra. My strengths are teaching English, history, civics and government, and the sciences. I am very patient, always encouraging, and never judgmental. I enjoy the challenge of helping my students find the motivation and curiosity to understand schoolwork (and the world!).
