I worked at a daycare just short of two years. There I help grade schoolers with there homework. I also help my 14 year old sister with her homework. I am good at keeping students on track and what they have to focus on. I would like to make the learning fun but I know when we have to get down to business.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style becomes the student's learning style, unique with each different student. I have attended three years of training with the Learning Success Institute of California, which specializes in a learning styles philosophy designed for every student, but most particularly for those who struggle in various skill areas and who have been labeled with various learning disabilities. Using this philosophy, I try to help each student know their own unique learning style, thereby giving them a key to unlock some doors that may not have been opened before. I tutor with the belief that patience and encouragement are very important for the discouraged learner - recognizing both their successes and challenges. I do not rush and do not play guessing games - but try to keep in step with the student while drawing them further than they may know they are going.

I have a bachelor degrees in elementary education and a master in special education, which allows me the ability to with students struggling in the areas of reading and math. I am able to collect data and progress monitor progress. I have learned to build on students learning styles and to promote differential learning. During the last three years I have worked one on one with students to increase their functional reading and math skills.
I enjoy working with struggling learners. I believe that using brain research and knowing learning styles enables me to support students in differential instructions. I believe that not all students are alike and and instruction should not be one size fits all. I want to make students life long learners and build a strong foundation from learning.

I love seeing children learn and grow. My teaching style is a whole, part, whole approach. I teach the abstract concept and then the practical application. After the application is learned I relate it back to the abstract concept and alternate applications. I encourage mistakes because they are a valuable source of knowledge and learning. I don’t criticize, but am very encouraging and open to the experiences of the pupil in teaching the material. I believe all people are capable of learning and succeeding.
My tutoring experience includes helping my peers at the University of Wyoming and duties of training petty officer in the US Navy. At UW, I tutored physics, math, and basic engineering. While getting my BS in Mechanical Engineering, I gained an extensive knowledge of the principles and practice of mathematics. I was the training petty officer both at boot camp and on my ship, FF ... read more

Students learn best when they are able to utilize their talents and learn through their strengths, while also learning to recognize and deal with weaknesses. Learning that takes place with total engagement of the body, mind, and spirit will provide not only the greatest results but also a desire for life-long learning. While I believe that concrete skills and a solid base are necessary for success, I also believe that continued expansion of those skills is where the most fun parts of learning takes place. Both are necessary to balance individuals. I strive to add laughter to lessons to make them more fun and relevant for students. Emotion is a valuable tool in teaching that can either make or break a student’s desire to succeed.
I taught children and young adults for 15 years in the areas of secondary language arts, AP English, and journalism. I have my bachelor's degree in seconda ... read more
