We all have different learning styles. Find yours and succeed.

We all have different learning styles. And in learning, there are many strategies and techniques for success. A one-to-one experience with a tutor can help find your style and apply these techniques so that you can better succeed in your subject area and in other areas of life. I am a certified classroom teacher with experience in elementary and secondary classrooms. I am Biology certified in the state of CT and am certification eligible in General Science and Chemistry. I have taught Biology, General Science, Chemistry and Forensics on the middle and high school levels and have experience with Special Education. I am a native Spanish speaker and am fluent in Spanish and Italian, able to speak, read and write both. I also have experience in Study Skills.

I believe every student can succeed once given the right tools.

Biology

There are many branches of Biology. Some students find it interesting and easily understandable, others find it difficult to comprehend. One-on-one instruction can help students learn strategies so they may better understand biological concepts and connections, thereby, helping them excel in Biology and possibly prepare them for other branches of science. My goal is to help each student succeed without frustrations.

Chemistry

Chemistry can be one of the more difficult branches of science to comprehend. It is also one that builds upon itself as the school year goes on and the lessons progress. It is not a class where "catch-up" is easy. Having worked with many levels of abilities, I pride myself on using strategies to help students comprehend and understand the different areas of chemistry and carry them on to build upon the coming lessons. One-to-one teaching is ideal to help the student focus and minimize or eliminate... Read More

Prealgebra

Mathematics can be very frustrating for some people. And, unfortunately, once you fall behind, catch-up can be very difficult. Sometimes, it is just a matter of coming at the concepts from a different perspective. Every student learns differently. A teacher or tutor can help by finding techniques and strategies geared to the student's learning style. One-on-one teaching puts focus on the student, not the subject, and can finally clarify concepts so the student can succeed. My goal is student success... Read More

Spanish

Hola y Buen Dia,
Whether you are a student in the classroom or part of the corporate world, needing to better your academic grade or traveling for business or vacation, individual tutoring sessions can help you become more fluent in Spanish.
If you think about how we learned to speak, did we first have a book placed in front of us or a pencil in our hand? Neither.
As children, we learn a language through listening, mimicking and comprehending. I am a Science teacher and Spanish... Read More

Study Skills

We all have different ways of learning. Students may find themselves frustrated because of the subject matter, a teacher's teaching style or their own difficulties. However, there are many strategies and techniques to help students stay organized, focused and not only learn the material in the present, but comprehend and retain the information to get them through the rest of the school year. My teaching experience spans over 10 years, all grades and with multiple learning abilities. I have taught... Read More

Sewing

I have been sewing for over 10 years and have created my own children's clothing line that has been successful throughout the state of Connecticut. I work with Janome Sewing machines, embroidery machines and sergers but am familiar with other brands as well. Sewing techniques are the same regardless of machine brands so comfort with machines grows as sewing techniques are improved. One-to-one sewing experiences are a great way to learn hands-on and have questions answered immediately and new questions... Read More

ADD/ADHD

Some students' struggles in classes are not about the subjects themselves but the frustrations of the students due to inability to focus, be organized and subsequently falling behind. There are many techniques for ADD/ADHD students that can be applied both in the classroom and at home to help the student be successful. As a teacher of over 15 years, I have worked with special needs students of many levels in the classroom, especially ADD/ADHD. I have structured my curriculum to address different... Read More

Genetics

As a Biology teacher, one of my specializations is Genetics which I have taught as a specific independent course for over five years. Although Genetics can at first seem complicated, when broken down and tackled like a "puzzle", the pieces start to come together and the big picture becomes clearer. My goal is to help diminish frustration and teach for understanding by using lessons, examples and experiences along with text. Once the pieces are understood, they can be put together to make sense.
