I have been tutoring all subjects K-8 for over 15 years. I am a certified teacher and currently teach 6th grade. I worked at Sylvan Learning Center for over a year before becoming a private tutor. I have been very pleased with the results I have seen with private tutoring. References are available on request. I think lots of modeling and review of the concepts being taught is essential. I want the student to observe the modeling and then for me to guide them through the learning of the concepts. Students should be fully engaged in order to gain a full understanding.

I was a peer tutor at Mount Marty College for three years in Yankton, South Dakota. While there, I tutored college students English, writing, religious studies, critical thinking in ethics, and speech. I love helping students improve their writing skills. I have personally taken the ACT-32, the GRE-80 percentile, and the LSAT-currently awaiting score. I like to find out what the student's biggest concerns are, clarify any confusion, and then run through practice problems by demonstrating and guiding.

As a native French speaking international student, I came to Emporia State University to obtain an MBA. Upon my arrival, I was offered a Graduate Teaching Assistant position to teach beginning French classes level 110 and 111. I taught during the four year of my academic carrier at ESU. It was a formidable experience and I have learned a lot on how to teach and help students. I have been asked after graduation to tutor a couple students here at ESU. I have discovered that in order to teach French and especially French grammar, most students didn’t know what an adverb, a noun or a subject was. After my first semester at ESU, I changed my teaching methods and I choose to spend more time on the basic and the fundamental and make sure that the students actually understand (the reason (for) the whys). I also believe that students learning a foreign language want to have the practical aspec

I have a PhD with a major in psychology and a minor in cell biology. I have taught college courses ranging from developmental math to graduate neuroscience. One of my research areas was mathematical models of behavior; therefore, I have a strong background in statistics and math. I have published approximately 30 research papers and have made many more research presentations. I have also written many "issue papers" designed to acquaint well educated laypersons with major issues in higher education. Therefore, I have outstanding writing and communication skills. I am a higher education professional who has come to believe that the best way to impact students is to return to teaching. I have a long-standing interest in the philosophy of teaching. I am particularly impressed by "deep learning," a movement that emphasizes critical thinking and inquiry at all levels of teaching. I also

When teaching a math lesson I begin by going over skills already mastered that lead to the lesson at hand. After teaching the new material I then have the student try a similar problem while I watch. If necessary I coach them along, pointing out any problem areas. Then I require the student to try more of the same type of problems until he or she has mastered the new material. It's very important to me that the student understand what he or she is doing and why it works. In other words, I don't just teach them how to do individual problems. I have enjoyed teaching in private schools of and on for the last 22 years. My bachelor degree in math and my years of experience in the classroom have allowed me to develop successful methods of student motivation and classroom discipline. Also, in recent years, I have tutored students one-on-one in my home where I have been successful pinpointi

I love working with kids and people of all ages. I believe that all people can learn, but each in different ways. I believe in taking the time to get to know the child and his/her learning behaviors and catering to the child. I strive to make a difference in as many peoples lives as I can. Growing up I was a very driven to get my masters in accounting. Once I graduated with my Bachelor of Science, I moved straight into getting my masters of business administration with a concentration in accounting. While getting working towards my masters I was a graduate assistant. During that time I worked in the accounting lab tutoring undergraduate students in their business classes. For the last four years I have worked for a public accounting firm as a senior auditor.

I have worked with children of varying ages since 1982. I am most passionate about Language Arts, History and Science. During my senior year in college, I tutored individual students in Science and I worked one-on-one with 4th graders helping them with Math skills. My classroom experiences include 3rd and 6th Grades. My 3rd Grade room in California had 32 students - 60% of whom were at kindergarten level English speaking / reading / writing. Many of their parents were non-English. This challenged me to work with the children in the classroom, because I knew that they would not get the help and support at home in order to achieve. Each student deserves to know that they can achieve. I believe that the level of success a student reaches is, ultimately, up to the student. I feel that with caring & patient guidance a student will be motivated to do their best. I believe in hands

I have always enjoyed interacting with children of all ages. I currently serve as a paraprofessional (teacher's aide) at an inner - city elementary school. During my three years in this position, it has become extremely apparent that all children....no matter their abilities....are capable of reaching their full potential. It is simply a matter of adapting my teaching style to their learning strengths. I am a patient, easy going individual who tries to improve upon the struggles that I encountered on my own academic journey so the students that I am working with walk away with confidence in school and really, all facets of life. I graduated from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas with a degree in Communications (emphasis in Journalism) along with minors in Religion and Youth Ministry. While in college, I was a member of the yearbook staff as well as serving as an editor in var

As a native French speaker who graduated from the University of Kansas with a Master in Urban Planning and a BA in Political Science. I have tutored students in French and English as a second language. Prior to obtaining my BA, I tutored high school students for a year in Kansas City. I can relate to students struggling to learn a language as I did when I started learning English, which turned out to be quite challenging for me. I decided to spend a year abroad and learn English as an exchange student I love to share my knowledge. I believe that everyone should have a chance to learn and get educated. I am patient, easy going but firm. I believe that anyone can improve with the appropriate surrounding and a desire to learn.
