Experienced,certified teacher who makes learning fun!

My experience as an educator covers the range from grade six up to, an including grade twelve, grade twelve honors, and 'A' and 'O' levels in England. During this time frame, eleven years as a professional educator, I have served as the Head of the English Department at East Catholic High School in Detroit, Michigan, I served on the Diocese of Tucson Curriculum Committee, and I served twice on the A.I.M.S. Committee for Reading and Writing Bias.
An outstanding teacher knows that ‘practice makes perfect’. I drill my students, thus obviating the fact that ‘practice makes perfect’. This rule, however, does not only apply to my classes, it also applies to my instructional techniques. I cut a video for the Student Teacher Monitor at Northern Arizona University that he might demonstrate the animation a teacher needs to be effective. I reviewed the video and found an area that I ne ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching and tutoring students for 10 years in grades 1-8 in the areas of reading, writing, math, social studies, civics and government, and Spanish has diversified my experience in educating all ages of children. With a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction, I have developed an extensive knowledge base on how to successfully impart skills to my students.
I am a firm believer in differentiating instruction to meet the needs of each student. There is no one size fits all plan that will work for all children. My strengths include a foundational approach to learning, well-crafted lesson plans, and utilization of technology to enhance student interest. I feel my positivity, friendliness and dedication will result in academic achievement for all students I encounter.

I have spent my 13 years as an educator in a variety of capacities. I spent four years as a tutor for an autistic child while I was in school. After receiving my bachelor’s degree in education, I worked for three years as the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade alternative school teacher for the Chandler Unified School District. I then worked part-time as the curriculum writer for a residential alternative facility, also opening and teaching in their middle school program. Following that experience, I spent two years teaching Title 1 English at a middle school. I currently own and operate my own business, earning my master’s of education in the process.
I have spent most of my career working with children who were unsuccessful in a traditional classroom. Discouraged and failing, many of my students had no recent memory of being successful. By showing them that they were capable learner ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As part of my lifelong love of learning and teaching, I began tutoring when I was just fourteen years old. While in high school, I usually tutored math (mostly algebra, geometry, and trigonometry) and general science. Once I moved to college, I began to work with middle school as well as high school students again in mostly math and science. However, I have a BA in politics and history; therefore I am extremely confident in many liberal arts subjects. I have also earned an MBA which helped to hone my grammatical and communication skills. I am currently an on-call teacher for two local school districts. I teach all levels, all subjects.
I love to teach. I have experience with 5-50 years old and, if pressed, could not name a favorite group. I believe that everyone can learn; some of us just process information in different ways. As a tutor it is my job to discover how a student proc ... read more

"We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself." (Lloyd Alexander, 1924) I like this quote because I believe that every student has the skills to learn any subject through practice and hard work. Every student learns differently and I will help your student reach their full academic potential by catering to their specific learning needs and styles. I will be a support system for your learner to help them with all of their academic needs. Ambition and motivation are two strengths I want my learners to develop and they will accomplish this by actively participating in their own learning. ~Strive for the impossible and be extraordinary.
As an Arizona State graduate, I have developed a strong ethic in leadership, independence, mastery, superior work habits, proficiency in my field, and would like to bring all of t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been in some type of teaching experience for five years. I have interned at two Junior High Schools and one High school. I have also completed my student teaching in English at a Junior High school. I currently tutor a friend’s sister in English and I have worked with students since I was a Sophomore in High School.
I have a big heart and teach using my heart. I teach towards all learning abilities slowing down when I need to or speeding up the process if need be. I love my students and I work with them as hard as I can to push both of us to success. I am very patient. This past year I worked with students who were behind their fellow classmates and I reached success with almost all of them.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a university-level professor, I understand that only about 20% of my students will prosper from a strictly lecture-style course. I have explored other means of learning with my students by encouraging them to read and interpret primary sources (sources written or objects used/produced by historical agents), discuss what they've learned in class, and conduct history investigations of their own. As a former museum professional, I am a strong believer in hands-on learning. In this respect, I encourage a student to own his/her learning, by constantly interacting with me and their fellow students as we attempt to better understand the material. I encourage my students to become better writers by holding "free-writes" in class, and going over how to structure an historical argument, and how to present evidence. I have worked with students of varying abilities, some of them with extreme dysl ... read more

I feel as an educator it is always important to learn from the students before you can teach them. The most necessary factor to success is being able to recognize just how the student learns and be able to take your teaching methods and adjust accordingly. Having had many good professors, teachers and tutors personally, I feel that this approach makes a world of a difference. I do try to mix things up in terms of teaching methods, once the subject seems to be sinking in, just to try to get students used to teachers or tutors who may not operate in this manner.
I have currently earned a bachelors degree, BS Physics, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. While doing research I was able to learn more in the areas of biology and math, while also taking biology classes at a community college in San Diego.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching comes naturally to me; I believe that everyone has the potential to be successful, given the right opportunity. Persistence, mutual admiration, and effort are the qualities that I bring with me, and they are all that I ask of the students that I work with. My goal is to make learning less of a duty and more of a stimulating quest, so that I may leave my students with the inspiration to continue learning throughout their lives.
As a student, I had the chance to participate in the Americorps program, where I developed and implemented programs for at-risk youth. My programs encompassed but were not limited to, ecology, animal husbandry, writing, reading, and the arts. Since then I have earned two bachelor's degrees, a BA in Education, and a BA in Elementary Education, with minors in communications and liberal arts.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe that children learn in different ways. I will use their learning style in order for them to achieve academic success . I am very patient,easy going and considerate. My goal for each student that I tutor is to provide the best education possible. I believe children are little explorers of their world and learn through hands on meaningful experiences. I believe every child can learn and will learn if in the correct learning environment.. I believe that if you make learnering fun they will not even know they are learning and will achieve great things. I stive to make a difference in every child in all my students' lives and show them they can do anything they may set off to do.
