Lyon Park 's Community And Recreation Center

I am an AVID Tutor at my old high school Sierra Vista High School in Baldwin Park. This is going to be my second year working at SVHS and so far I love working at this school and helping the students. I work with sophomore, junior and, senior students. AVID is a college readiness program designed to help students develop the skills they need to be successful in college. It is also a program that motivates students to try to go to college. As an AVID tutor, I am responsible for helping the students by tutoring them in small groups in a specific subject matter (Math-History) by using homework/lesson discussion in groups. We use the Socratic questioning to get students to think critically about a problem they are struggling on and help them when they really cannot solve the question they have. I try to find resources (videos, notes, textbooks) to help the students get a better understanding of their question. Every Friday I grade

Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation was founded in 1863 when Mr. Henry Williams purchased Old Fort Park and donated it to the city of Fort Wayne. Since then, Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation has continued to grow acquiring 85 more parks which include Reservoir Park in 1880, Foster Park golf course in 1928, Fort Wayne’s Children’s Zoo in 1962, the Botanical Conservatory in 1979 and more recently Robert E. Meyer’s Park in 2008. This organization does much more for the community than just taking care of the city’s parks. Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation also hosts many activities in town including multiple different camps for children and young adults.

Being a part of my school’s peer tutoring program has been the most gratifying experience of my high school career. As a student, I can relate to those that struggle in a subject and are unable to connect with the material being taught in class. I have worked with students who have lost confidence in themselves because of the difficulty they were having in school. To be given the opportunity to assist students to reach their academic goals is fulfilling. As a peer tutor, I edit essays, share scholarship searches, assist with homework, and provide studying tips and test taking strategies. I enjoy working with my group to develop habits to be more successful.With each higher grade earned, test anxiety relieved, and confident smile of those that I help, I know that the work I am doing is

I would like to participate in the Immokalee Readers program to help young children reach their highest academic potential. It will help me to develop many college and career readiness skills. Being a tutor will help me to further my communication and collaboration skills; Communicating with the kids will help me to help them to meet their goals in school. The Immokalee Readers program will open up opportunities for me to start focusing on my pathway to success. I will be able to help a child develop basic study habits and homework strategies that he or she can use in higher education. By using a student’s strength to approach a strategy for their difficulties, it will help the student to feel less stressed about the subject. As a tutor I

Currently, I am student teaching at Alfred E. Zampella PS #27 School in the district of Jersey City. The school is located in a busy city, next to John F. Kennedy St. which is especially busy in the morning and during rush hour. This results in several late students on a day to day basis. On the other hand, this school is also highly accessible and as a little over a thousand students. The school has grade levels from kindergarten to 8th grade, and has a mix of general, special, and inclusion education classrooms. Typically, families that enroll their students into this school are of lower-middle socio-economic class, and tend to be majority Hispanic, Indian, and African American, with few Caucasians and Asians. This school provides a variety of special programs for their ESL students and special need students. Students may be offered speech language pathology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, ESL programs, reading recovery, and counseling.

Last Autumn, I received a call from Amir asking me if he could develop a tutoring program for college students. Amir, having recently graduated for the University of Houston, had spent time reflecting on his college experienced and sought to aid others who were going through similar collegiate struggles. Amir quickly formed and established the Undergraduate

A lot of parents would love to get their child the help they need for school, or extra help to get ahead if needed. Today there are a lot of tutoring programs out here, but all of them are not free. So, where does that leave the children and the parents who cannot afford these programs? It can leave that child at a lost because that child is not getting that extra help to become successful. Free tutoring is a great thing for several reasons. At the HOPE Academy they offer free tutoring for students who may cannot afford tutoring and are behind in their class. HOPE academy is making a differences in their kid’s lives because it is not just tutoring at the end of the day.

Homework Hotline Live has always been one of the key ways for Montgomery County students to retrieve information and extra learning. To be able to be part of that experience and help other students is greatly important to me. As an elementary and middle school tutor, I understand how important it is for students to be able to receive an extra lesson or a helping hand if they are struggling. Furthermore, as a former student at Eastern Middle School's Communications and Humanities program, I spent most of my middle school career establishing my skills and interest behind the camera and in the editing room. Although I am no longer in a specialized program, I view HHL as an outlet to continue my passion for television. I hope that by participating

Last school year, three of my peers and I decided that our high school needed a peer-tutoring club, so the last few months of my junior year and the first few weeks of my senior year were dedicated to starting this organization. We organized the structure and goals of the club, and presented our ideas to the administrators. Once we got our approval, we immediately began planning lessons. Two days a week we meet with groups of students that come to us for help on improving their ACT scores or general grades. Our service is open to any and every student. We have tutored students in dual-enrollment courses and in standard academic classes.

The classroom follows a partial day inclusion program. Ms. Welsh’s classroom on the second floor of Village School is considered their base area. The student’s belongings are all kept in the classroom upstairs and they spend the majority of their time there throughout the day. All students are taught by both teachers for math, science, and social studies. For reading and writing, Ms. Wilush teaches three students in a pull-out resource room on the first floor of the building. When it is time for students to review those lessons, the three students make their way down to Ms. Wilush’s classroom with the folders and other materials they may need. Once reading and writing periods are completed, the students either return to Ms. Welsh’s classroom or go to an alternate room for specials such as art or music. Ms. Wilush and Ms. Welsh’s relationship can be described as both friendly and professional. Ms. Welsh is currently going to graduate school for special education, so she is learning a lot from Ms. Wilush’s work. At the same time, Ms. Wilush is taking the opportunity to learn from such an experienced teacher as Ms. Welsh who has taught for ten years. They believe that the best way to work efficiently and achieve the most success for each student is
