My comments on tutoring Elementary Vocabulary : I always include vocabulary skills and development in any subject I tutor in the language arts areas (English, grammar, writing, reading, etc.)

I have taught for many decades and use a variety of teaching styles since all students learn differently. I am more of a 'traditional' style teacher, realizing that the basics are vital. I am a visual learner myself, but realize that my students may not. I always teach so that all students learn..using visual,hands on, and auditory presentation of material. I am extremely thorough and endeavor to be sure my students have mastered a concept before moving on to more complex topics. I ALWAYS make what I am teaching relevant to the students...showing them how they will use what we are learning in a real life situation. This not only makes it more interesting, but the students enjoy seeing real life situations in which they can use some of the more obscure topics such as fractions, etc. I make learning fun and exciting! Getting the students involved and active is a huge part of lea ... read more

My comments on tutoring Elementary Vocabulary : This is arguable one of my just innate natural talents is my ability to comphrehend vocabulary, determine how and where it best fits in writing and conversation, and most importantly how to effectively reach my student working on this to a point where they feel confident and have a very solid comphrehension of words.

I tutored at the mathew dickey's boys club working with grade school students ranging from the 2nd-4th grade. I would essentially go over all of their subjects with them and ensure that they not only completed their assignments but understood the material. In college at Iowa State University I tutored in both Anatomy & Physiology and Biochemistry. Although I have not worked specifically with students in need of writing skills, essay assignments - I was in journalism and wrote for the high school newspaper all four years and served as managing editor and sports editor. Furthermore, I continue to write for the online health magazine mindandmuscle.net.
Learning can be hard. Memorization can be hard. Knowing how to determine the proper equation to use in a chemistry or math equation can be hard. What I focus on with my students is not simply telling them the information and how they sh ... read more

I love teaching. I earned my BA before I was old enough to vote. While my classmates were in his/her senior year, I was teaching. Eventually I earned my M.Ed. in Reading, then started School Administration and Adult Education. In all these fields I find similar necessary skills: patience, co-operation among staff and colleagues, knowledge of subject matter, communication with the community and parents and a well defined curriculum. Moreover, I am a published author and a former writer with St. Louis Globe Democrat - Suburban Journals. As a favor to my students, I often evaluate papers for submission. These students will always earn excellent grades.
I am a listener first and foremost. I want to know what my students expect from me and in what areas s/he regard as most essential to her/his success. I believe all people can learn and understand. It is a pleasure to watch students gr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Princeton University with a BA (cum laude) in History and will be starting a Ph.D. program in History in the fall. I served as a tutor at the middle school level during my college years and have worked with High School students on History, English and ACT/SAT prep for the past year.I have also served in various other academically-related positions, including as a research assistant and library assistant.
I like to nurture my students without enabling them. I tend to ask my students pointed questions about the subject at hand to inspire critical thinking and push them to arrive at their own interpretation of the correct answer. I feel that this best prepares them for college-level work.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have the experience of substitute teaching, mentor St. Louis and tutoring in a nativity school. I am very patient with each student I meet and help them reach their goals. My expertise is in the area of early elementary education where their learning styles are being developed. I want to assist the students in learning so they do not fall through the cracks of of our school system. I will not put pressure on my students as I am there to help them be the best they can be. Learning is difficult today for students in a class of 20-25, so extra precautions need to be taken in order for all students to reach the next level of learning. Progress is what needs to be strived for and not just perfection.

Fun Tutor Focusing on Individualizing for each Child's Needs

I love to get to know my students to see what would best fit them. I use manipulatives to give the student a more hands on experience of what is being taught. I also love to play games to reinforce what I have taught them. I have many different on- line games and videos that can help also.
I have been teaching for 4 and a half years as a third grade teacher in the city of St. Louis. In this position I have created lesson plans and have worked in a whole group setting as well as individually with students. I have done many forms of assessments to show where the student is and what they still need help with. I am currently going to Webster University to complete my Masters in Reading and plan on completing this in the summer of 2014.

I'm very positive and communicative person.

Student-Centered Approach which means teacher is the authority figure, but the student plays an active role in what is learned. The students are learning the information the teacher is giving, and the teacher is learning how best to approach his students.
My mom is kindergartner and teacher of Russian language and Literature. I used to help to her 1-2 days a week. So I have an experience how to teach them, check students' home works, communicate and find best approach to students and children...The main purpose of my teaching is not only money. I would like to find new friends with their interesting backgrounds and I can learn anything from them too.I have What's up and Viber 13144064010. If you have questions, feel free.

Tutoring without Tears.

Students learn best when they feel safe to explore and learn from past mistakes. In fact, 'mistakes' should be viewed as opportunities to improve skills and learning strategies. I use 'play therapy' most often to teach skills and strategies. Multiple studies have demonstrated that children learn best through play.
I have 30+ years of experience helping students with a variety of disabilities which include language disorders. My experience encompasses Early Childhood Special Education, Elementary, Middle, High School, and post-secondary. I have helped students with ADD/ADHD, Autism/Aspergers/PDD-NOS, learning disabilities, multiple disabilities, medically fragile, language impaired and ESL (English as a Second Language).
