Creative teacher with a love for science located in Washington, CT abd will travel to you!
Methodology
I would like to give lessons to students in elementary school through high school. For the upper grades my focus would be on science although I am willing to help in other areas if I can.
The structure of my lessons addresses background knowledge behind the question or topic, assessing prior knowledge of the student, then scaffolding the work to a point the student understands the information and can answer the question. I will provide feedback to ensure the response is complete and the topic is understood.
As a teacher, I like to gain as much information as possible and allow the student discover information and make connections on their own (with guidance) as much as possible.
Background
I have taught over 1,000 students in my classes and tutored over 50 students in various grade levels. Through tutoring my students have understood concepts and been able to apply their new knowledge effectively. I have had many students drastically improve their grades and for some they have found a new love for subjects they previously struggled with.
