All students can learn, but in different ways. I, for one, learn best by watching how something is done. I can read about it, or hear a lecture about it, but seeing it helps me understand the subject. This type of teaching would be done with movies, drawing or acting out the situation. In my teaching, I try to use all methods available to me to help the students learn and to use their creativity. I especially try to get students to work in groups and to share their work with each other. I find that pier groups provide the best help in understanding the subject matter. The classroom should be a learning place of activities and fun.

I have always had a passion for teaching and hope to continue teaching in academic sciences. I enjoy working with children and young adults sharing my passion for learning. I believe the best way to learn is through trial and error and I encourage my students to attempt to solve problems before we attempt to find the answer. I believe that students learn best in an encouraging environment and providing this for them will give them the best chance at success. As a student who is constantly continuing my education I can relate to the issues my students have in grasping and conquering issues. I also believe that practice is the best way to master material and encourage my students to practice, practice and practice.

Teaching is a great way to educate and to learn. As a tutor, first, I see the student’s understanding level. I plan ahead of time and prepare proper material. However, if the material is provided, I find effective methods of teaching, and teach each student accordingly. It’s obvious that some techniques work better for some students but not others. Therefor, I choose a good teaching method, and assist students to learn the material better, faster and easier.
