I am committed to your success

My teaching style is adapted to your needs, the topic, and how you learn, so that you can integrate what you are learning at least long enough to pass the class
I have a unique educational background in wanting to be educated but obtaining a degree along the way. My classroom experience is board covering many disciplines and how they connect and overlap. Hence the desire to be educated, to be able to think, reason, wonder, explore ongoingly through out my life drives me still after all these years. My appetite for learning only seems to increase as I age. I also have a broad range of work experience that is integrated into my academic experience.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a substitute teacher for the past three years, I have experiencing teaching nearly every academic subject. I am a published playwright and have sold over fifteen short scripts for religious one-acts to the Nashville-based Belden Street Music Company. My writing and composition skills are particularly strong, my understanding of grammar is excellent and I have worked extensively in high school English/writing classes. I also held a long term substitute assignment in an Air Force Junior ROTC program in which I taught leadership skills and character building. In addition to my BA in theatre, I minored in journalism/mass communication.
One of the reasons that I'm interested in tutoring is that, although I love working with individual students and small groups, I am less interested in classroom management, discipline and the rest of the duties that come along with substitute teaching ... read more

I have two children ages eight and five. We learn with each other through discovery, often turning to our dictionaries and computers for information. I think that the greatest skill for one to learn is to be able to seek information that can be synthesized into the answer that is needed. I use constructive criticism, making statements that demonstrate why an answer or line of thinking is incorrect without implying that the learner is somehow less valuable for having come to an incorrect conclusion. I think that it is very important to build a student's confidence in themselves because it is only with self-confidence that one can graduate to self-efficacy.

I have 20+ years experience in the computer field and I had a 3.0 average in general studies. I have a BS in computer science and an AAS in microcomputer technology. Most of my education was self taught beyond high school. I've also tutored and mentored school age children for approximately four years when in college. All math and science subjects were from high school from basic math to calculus, trigonometry, and basic geometry. Physical and earth sciences are also strong suites. I can also give students better study skills and memory retention techniques to aid in obtaining higher grades in K-12 and some post-secondary education.
My style of teaching is repetition of material focusing on specific areas where the student is having problems. One on one approach until the lesson is grasped by the student has proven to work more than group settings. Once the area of concern ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent the better part of my life either in school or teaching in one form or another. I highly value both the process of learning and of passing on my knowledge. I have intend to make this my life's work and as such have almost always held teaching positions. I tutored fellow students while an undergraduate and after graduation I taught autistic students in math, reading, art, speech therapy and physical education for 5 years. Then, as a graduate student I taught Human Anatomy to undergraduates. Though my own education is in psychology and biology my years of education have provided me with a broad base in the arts, history and literature/writing as well.
I believe that teaching styles need to be flexible to the student. I have worked with a very wide variety of students, from the severely limited autistic youth to the highly gifted medical student. While approach and focus ... read more

As an Engineer, I have lots of understanding of both maths and science. From my experience working as Maths tutor in Department of Mathematics in Western Michigan University, I have learned to be good listener and more responsible. I love teaching and helping others. It gives me lot of satisfaction when I solve someone's problems and see the smile on their face, that they completely understood the topic.
As I previously said I am good listener and Proactive person. After I talk to students ,I completely understand how much they understood the subject and help them to complete the missing concepts in their understanding. I love to make the things easier for understanding by breaking the problems in small parts and then explain parts by parts with example and eventually making students to solve the similar examples to measure the degree of their understanding. I am very calm , compos ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a degree holder in both writing and literature, and having worked with children in a professional capacity for several years, I have extensive knowledge of both writing, reading and editing techniques, but my ability to teach does not end with them. I've always had a passion for the arts, and teaching them is my favorite way of enjoying them. Over the years of my education and in my professional experiences, I've written all kinds of essays, research papers, research projects, grant proposals, short stories, poetry, plays, and even whole books. My tutoring experience is mostly limited to the collegiate level, however my experience with children gives me the tools to work with them as well.
Most people learn best when they're having an enjoyable time doing it. By employing a fun, learn-at-your-own-pace style of teaching, I'm able to pull better results out of my students, and als ... read more

In groups, I like to have many examples and participation from the audience. As a manager and mentor, I also prefer to teach a concept and return to it when the student has an opportunity to use it in their work. It is important to be able to adjust your teaching style to the needs of the student, and I love the challenge of being able to do this.
I have always loved to learn new things, and as a teenager wanted to be a teacher. I have a B.S. in Dietetics with a chemistry minor, as well as an M.B.A. My role as a dietitian requires the ability to teach all ages groups, with diverse backgrounds and educational levels. After completion of my MBA, I moved into a senior leadership role. In this position, I facilitated strategic planning sessions and tutored staff who were completing BS or MS degrees in English, sciences, quality, writing, and business classes.

I believe that the relationship between teacher and student is the foundation upon which learning experiences are built. Consistency and trust are the cornerstones of this relationship, which allow the learner to be open-minded, to explore, to ask questions, to solve problems, and to build self-confidence. A positive bond is the key to overcoming risk-factors and helping a child to realize his or her potential.
Having worked in banking, telecommunications, data processing, and education, I have extensive experience in each of these fields and a unique combination of knowledge and skills. I have applied excellent grammatical skills and the ability to quickly learn processes and procedures to developing user guides and other technical documentation, and to developing and delivering on-site and classroom training. Since attaining a B.A. in Elementary Education, I have continually p ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Everything starts out with passion. My passion is to help others when they are in need. When it comes to math and other subjects, I'm very capable. I graduated high school as a Salutorian and graduated college with a Magna Cum Laude.
Everyone learns through seeing, demonstrations, examples, and practicing. If one demonstration or examples won't work, a second or third demonstration or example is needed and it may have to demonstrate differently. I'm very patient when it comes to teaching. I'm good at being creative about finding ways to teach someone so that he or she can understand.
