Clifton, NJ Grammar Tutors

Description: When Stephen tutors, he utilizes Vygotsky's scaffolding method, as well as the "Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD)" method, to ensure maximum effectiveness in learning. He also uses the theory of Bloom's Taxonomy to hone in on the learning style of the student in order to maximize the effects of study. Stephen continually encourages an excitement in learning, and demonstrates this excitement as he tutors.
Stephen's tutoring philosophy: "My job is not to be the expert. My job is to condition the student to be the expert."      << View Less

Description: I am an English tutor with 5 years experience working with a variety of students. From assisting kids in elementary school on improving their reading to helping college students perfect their essays, I enjoy instilling confidence within my students and watching them progress in their skills. For the past two years I have volunteered as a tutor for the program Helping Hands, where I get paired with children in elementary school to teach them in a range of subjects. I have two years experience working with students with special needs, and I also served as a student teacher in a middle school French classroom this year. It was an exciting experience that solidified my passion for teaching others!      << View Less

Description: I hold a graduate degree with honors in business (minor in international business) from a prestigious university. My minor as an undergraduate (also with honors) was international studies, minoring in geography. I have also over a decade of experience teaching at the undergraduate level, so I understand ¨the other side of the lectern¨. I have a 2 year old son, so my experience at that level is a work in progress. . . .      << View Less
