10+ Years Tutoring

I started my career in nonprofit advocating for tort reform in the health care space, the right to prescribe for first responders, and health care reform for New Jersey State residents in 2010. A few years after that I graduated college and started a career in government with the Office of the Mayor of New York City. Here I demonstrated data driven change by working with the Office of Management and Budget to fine-tune procurement processes and spending for various programs. The following year, a position was offered to me by the New York City Police Department, to work for the Deputy Commissioner of Management and Budget. This soon turned into a position with the Police Commissioner's Office, working on neighborhood policing policy citywide. I have helped hundreds of people gain access to housing, jobs, hygiene, criminal justice reform, and affordable health care. In 2016 I was appointed by the Governor of New York State to be a local board member on the Selective Service Board in my neighborhood. By now I had traveled to China, Italy, Spain, England, the Caribbean, Canada, Mexico, and Germany, not to mention I had picked up two languages, becoming conversational in Mandarin Chinese and Spanish. Certainly, a lot has happened since I graduated college in 2013. Nevertheless, I feel like I'm only getting started.

"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the poorly executed lessons of those who have taught me." -Isaac Newton and Myself. I was inspired to become a tutor because I believe there is an easy way to explain anything, it's just that, unfortunately, most don't take the time to try. I am a former Computer Science student at Rider University, where I have been tutoring since the beginning of Junior year. My favorite part of the job is that the more I teach a subject, the better I understand it. The subjects I will be focusing on tutoring are computer programming, Computational Theory, and Basic Mathematics such as Algebra. Currently I am an IT professional at a LIS company, providing patient-critical services to hospitals and labs. I also develop websites on the side.

I also have experience tutoring both special education and gifted students.I graduated from Rider University in 2014 with a degree in secondary education and mathematics. I also earned a technology certificate.It is my belief that tutoring needs to be an enjoyable experience for everyone involved so that the most information can be retained during the sessions. I always try my best to alter the session to fit the specific needs of the individual. For this reason no two sessions are ever truly the same.I hope that I can have the opportunity to help improve mathematical understanding and reasoning.

Kim
MS Kean University • BA Rider University
9+ Years Tutoring

I am currently a high school teacher of students with autism. This is my 16th year teaching this population and I love my career. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in elementary education and psychology from Rider University and my Master's degree in Special Education from Kean University. I received 18 post-master's credits in Behavior Analysis from Rutger's University and 12 credits towards earning a certification in LDTC (Learning Disabilities Teacher Consultant). I am passionate about teaching and watching my students progress towards their individualized goals. My tutoring style is working one on one or in small groups, just as I do in my self contained classroom. This allows me to individualize instruction to meet each students' learning style. After school, I have often tutored elementary school students in Language Arts, Math, History, and other subjects, such as functional social and behavior skills. Language Arts would probably be my favorite. I believe that education is the foundation to success in life.

I graduated from Rider University with a degree in History and Secondary Education. Throughout my time at Rider I learned how to not only teach history within a traditional classroom setting, but how to motivate people to achieve their goals and guide them through the process. Teaching, to me, is much more than just explaining material and ensuring students understand concepts; teaching is about enabling the student to think critically and go beyond what they thought was their limits.
