One of my core values can be summed up in two words: "Students First." I tell all students, online and offline, that if I am not in class or asleep, it is an office hour. I believe that it is my duty to be as accessible as possible. I believe that all of my students find comfort in the fact that there is someone they can turn to for clarification on a myriad of topics. I also bring a firm understanding that many of our students have a great deal of responsibilities. Along with working full time and maintaining their studies many students are "sandwiched" between taking care of their children as well as caring for their parents. With this understanding comes the requirement to be flexible, patient and empathetic. A cornerstone of my pedagogical philosophy is that I strive to help students understand difficult concepts through meaningful examples taken from their daily lives. If a student is going to take an interest in the subject matter, they are more likely to retain this information. I like to think of it as a sort of "School House Rock" approach to learning. For example, I was able to convey the microeconomic concept of the production possibilities frontier by having the students visualize a restaurant that produced two goods: salads and sandwiches. The production possibilities frontier is a simple model designed to depict the production capabilities of an economy given common resources, while assuming there are two broad classes of products, consumer goods and capital goods. Traditional economic textbooks love to use a "guns and butter" metaphor, but I have found that the salads and sandwiches example is much more effective. Students are able to quickly understand that they can use common ingredients like meat, cheese, vegetables, bread (rolls for the sandwich or croutons for the salad), and dressing to make sandwiches or salads and, in turn, maximize earnings. Unless the student is destined to become a contestant on "Jeopardy," I do not see the value in students having a plethora of academic knowledge at the ready. It is far more important that students are information literate and that they understand what information is needed, where to find it, how to evaluate it, and how to use it in everyday life.

I view teaching as an opportunity to make learning joyful and meaningful. I design lessons that spark laughter, creativity, and connection, because students learn best when they feel comfortable and inspired. By meeting learners where they are and encouraging them to trust their abilities, I help them develop confidence that extends far beyond the classroom.

I am looking forward to working with students again! I was a teacher/tutor for several years before beginning my family 2 years ago. My husband and I recently had twin girls and then a little boy so I have taken a break from the 9-5 scene for a bit. I miss teaching and working with students and I am excited to get back into the world of education. Helping students understand different topics in math (specifically) is my passion and I look forward to working with new students to help them gain confidence and comfort with any areas they are seeking help with.

Perhaps the best word to describe my love for teaching and learning is PASSIONATE! Since I was seven years old, I knew I would become a teacher. After earning my Associates Degree at Broward College and then obtaining my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education at (FIU) Florida International University, I was fortunate enough to receive a full scholarship from FIU to earn my Master's Degree in Urban Education. It was only a matter of time before I aimed in pursuit of the highest degree one can earn, hence receiving my Doctoral Degree in Advanced Classroom Instruction Professional Studies from Capella University.With exposure to all Elementary School subjects, I have taught a little of everything from 1st grade to 2nd grade to 3rd grade to 4th grade. I even worked as an Educational Specialist for my school district at the time in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It wasn't until I started teaching at the High School level that I realized my true calling: Reading/Language Arts/ Grammar/Writing. The joy on my students' faces when they listened to themselves reading orally on tape and then compared that recording to the one that I had previously recorded of them at the beginning of the school year is to date my favorite experience as an educator.At present, I left the classroom and now tutor full-time. I tutor all elementary subjects (Grades K-5), as well as grades K through 12th in Reading/Language Arts/ Grammar/Writing.My favorite thing to do outside of tutoring is to write. I am proud to say that I have five children's books written and published.I believe in working hard, always trying, doing your best, challenging yourself, and making the best of every situation, and I apply those beliefs in how I teach/tutor. It is my job to teach you. It is your job to let me teach you so you can learn. Let's do this together.

Hello! I truly believe that education must be held in a higher regard in today's society. I have worked with several youth to help develop not only their mind but work ethic and habits. Let's be great together.

All students possess the capacity to acquire knowledge when provided with the necessary opportunities. As an educator with seventeen years of experience, I hold a bachelor's degree in education and a master's degree in the Science of Education. My expertise lies in English language arts and reading, as well as Special Education. Throughout my career, I have taught students across all grade levels, from pre-kindergarten to high school. I have witnessed the successful learning outcomes of my students, and many have demonstrated significant improvements on standardized assessments.

I love learning and feel that learning is an ongoing process. We should be learning something new each day. For that reason and more, I enjoy teaching and learning from those individuals that I tutor and teach. I find that there are so many opportunities to share viable information that can be life changing for those on the receiving end. Informative, fun, engaging and interactive are four ingredients you will get from a session with me. Hopefully, this will help you to retain the information better.

I believe that when someone has had the opportunity to pursue their life's calling, they have a responsibility use the knowledge and skills gained to help advance others. As a nurse in the emergency department, I gained clinical skills, critical thinking, and experience in this role. Having gained experience in Oncology, Emergency, Visiting Home Nursing, ICU, CICU. Administrative experience has been as CNO/COO and later CEO of Federally Qualified Healthcare Clinics. I love to teach! Seeing my students achieve that "Aha!" moment when new learning has occurred is my goal. Insuring that every student is satisfied with all questions answered is my objective.In addition to teaching, I enjoy sailing, kayaking, walking our beach with our dogs, golf, tennis, and curling up by the fire with a great book!

I am a tutor with a variety of interests who can help with multiple subjects. I have a bachelor of science in psychology with a minor in teaching English as a second language, and I am pursuing a master in general addictions counseling. I have a love of learning, so if you have a question I don't know the answer to, we can figure it out together. This hunger for learning makes me passionate about helping students learn and understand when they are struggling. I feel like, as a tutor, it is my responsibility to figure out the best way to teach students, since everyone has a different learning style. If teaching something one way isn't understood, then I will continue trying different approaches until one makes sense. I especially like tutoring math, even though it has not been a career I have pursued, but I like to use my strengths in other subjects, like writing, too. I look forward to helping many students learn and exceed their expectations.

My Mission: To deliver clear, concise, and simple solutions that translate into meaningful and measurable improvement for my clients.Hi..I'm Craig Lanzoni, a former corporate finance guy who was introduced to teaching when a colleague asked me to present a lecture on International Finance to his business class at The Westchester Business Institute (now The College of Westchester).That was in 1988. Since that time I've dedicated my career to teaching.At the college level, I've spent over 25 years teaching undergraduate college courses including College Math, Algebra, Statistics, Economics, Business Management, Business Writing, and Operations Management.In addition, I've spent the past 20 years tutoring SAT and ACT, and 12 years tutoring GRE and GMAT.

My single largest event was a 4 hour SAT math seminar that was attended by 165 High School Students in Greenwich, CT.Most recently I've partnered with The Walter Luckett Jr. Foundation to bring SAT and ACT prep to students in New Haven, Bridgeport, and Waterbury.My spare time is spent playing golf, skiing and hiking, and teaching archery to kids in after school programs.As your tutor, my job is to provide you with simple approaches that lead to dependable results.

I just recently located to Georgia from the great state of Indiana. I am in grad school @ Capella University for Marriage and Family Therapy. I am also an independent distributor for It Works and I have my own photography business. I am enjoying living near Atlanta and I can't wait to meet you. :)

I believe that every child learns in their own unique way.I obtained my masters degree from the University of Central Florida and currently in the process of receiving my doctoral degree from Capella University this December.

"You must do the thing you think you cannot do." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

I earned a Master of Science in Human Services, with a specialization in Social and Community Services from Capella University. I also earned a Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Services from Wright State University.I have worked with families from all walks of life. Many of the families have been resource rich in very unique ways, but have lived in under-resourced areas. At times, such challenges made it difficult for parents to make sure that basic needs were met, which oftentimes had an impact on the learning process of their children - and additional support systems were needed.In previous roles such as Early Childhood Educator, Tutor, School Based Program Coordinator, Community Based Program Coordinator, and Assistant Camp Director, I worked to get to the root of challenges and helped families and children to move to their next level - whatever that meant for each family- by linking them to resources, or serving as an additonal resource. I most enjoyed building relationships, learning about each individual's strengths, and nurturing interests. I also enjoyed teaching families and children the importance of accountability and helping them to visualize, and embrace, their future story.While I have a broad range of experiences, I am most passionate about nurturing students who are interested in learning Spanish, and those who need support with building better study skills and organizational skills. I believe that everyone has the ability to make improvements. My goal with students is to identify what they do know, and understand, and build on that - brick by brick- focusing on progress, not perfection in helping them to reach their goals.

I am passionate about helping students because it is in my DNA. I am a 3rd generation educator so I have teaching in my blood. Lol. Also, I have witnessed how teachers impact the lives of children in a tremendous way. I have had the opportunity to teach in 3 different states including the midwest and the south. These students have ranged in grades from kindergarten to fourth grades. I have 11 years of classroom experience in public schools and charter schools. I received my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from USC. I am presently enrolled in a Master's program in Counseling. This will help strengthen my understanding of the various children and their family dynamics. I will learn how that plays a role in their learning process and how I can best teach them. The subjects I tutor are mainly Reading, Writing and Math in the elementary levels K-5. My favorite subjects to tutor are these three just mentioned. It is a three way tie because they all work together. My teaching philosophy is that every child can learn. We just have to find their learning style and teach them where they are-even if they are grade levels behind. If they already excel, I believe in pushing them forward at a pace that suites them. My style of tutoring is getting to know the student first and implementing their likes. I am also very professional and very patient. Outside of teaching I love to spend time with my family, attend church in person or virtually, meet new people, roller skate, and read about new things.

I'm a student-centered educator who works with learners across all stageselementary school, high school, college, and working professionals. My teaching approach focuses on creating a supportive, confidence-building environment where students feel empowered to ask questions, think critically, and apply what they're learning in practical ways. I specialize in academic coaching, business and marketing concepts, graphic design, and public speaking, with a strong emphasis on executive functioning skills like organization, time management, and clear communication. Drawing on extensive real-world leadership and education experience, I help students not only succeed academically, but also develop the skills and self-assurance they need beyond the classroom.

I've taught all math levels from 6th grade math to Algebra 1. I've also tutored previous students of mine in Geometry and Algebra 2. I LOVE Algebra 1. My passion is to show my students how each math concept relates to one another and build a strong math foundation for wherever the path leads!

Nothing is more rewarding than helping someone make a connection, learn something new or difficult, or see how they apply this new understanding. Some information can be dry, scary, or very difficult to learn, but I believe that learning should not only be productive but also enjoyable.

I received my Doctorate in Social Work from Capella University, my MSW from Augsburg College, and my Bachelor of Science in Applied Psychology with a minor is Sociology from St. Cloud State University. Since graduation, I have traveled to several countries as I have a strong interest in learning about and from other cultures. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Social Work, and social justice in particular; executive functioning; and adult health and wellness. In my previous experience as a mental health professional, helping students learn new ways to organize and plan and see themselves as capable and competent was one of the most rewarding parts of my work. I also taught social work and interpersonal relations at a university and loved watching the students grasp new concepts and really begin to see themselves as social workers or helping professionals. I am a firm believer in the importance of education and the opportunities that can be had as a result. In my work as a university instructor, I wanted my students to be able to think critically and from multiple perspectives and not just memorize terms. I loved helping my therapy clients and my students identify various solutions to problems they or their future clients might encounter, which empowered them and increased their confidence. In my spare time, I enjoy playing with my dog, running, gardening, and getting outdoors to enjoy nature and seasonal activities such as kayaking, hiking, and cross-country skiing.

My approach is simple: I meet you exactly where you are. Whether we are tackling foundational reading, spelling, math, or college essays and research, I tailor my sessions to your specific journey to ensure we meet your goals together. I am passionate about keeping the learning experience positive, encouraging, and stress-free. When I'm not tutoring, I'm usually exploring the world. I love traveling internationally to immerse myself in new cultures and try unique foods. To stay grounded and focused, I also practice meditation, Tai Chi, and yogaprinciples of patience and balance that I bring into every lesson I teach." I look forward to tutoring you while enjoying and excelling in the learning process!
