A Little Bit About Me...

While attaining my genetics degree at Ohio State, I worked at the OSU Chimpanzee Center. After graduating, I started working for the Department of Agriculture in the Weights and Measures division. It was my job to try to "trick" the scales before they could become available for commercial use. I moved back home to Coshocton when I got married. I quickly found a job teaching adults within our county's GED program. I easily became the math and science "guru" with my background and began getting my Masters in Education from Muskingum University. Now I train other adult education directors around the state how to improve their own adult education programs. I have spent the past three years focusing on the instruction of math and language.
I enjoy teaching adults as well as high school students. I do not have much training teaching below junior high; however, I am confident that I could ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe a supportive environment is critical for an excellent learning experience. First, I work to set up an environment of mutual respect, a place where the student knows I respect him or her and the student respects me. To accomplish this task, I actively engage with the student by showing an interest in the student's life. Essentially, I get to know the student. I then aim to clarify the subject matter the student finds challenging. If they still find a concept confusing, I approach the topic in an alternate manner. I do not give up on the student or the topic; I believe every student can understand a challenging concept by having a teacher explain it to them in a way the student finds comprehensible.
In high school, I served as a tutor for elementary school students for the state program Ohio Reads. At the University of Pittsburgh, I earned a BA in English Writing with min ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

One of my greatest joys is teaching!!! I prefer to work with high school aged teens, college aged adults and adults of all ages. I excel in one-on-one and small group teaching environments and am a patient, considerate tutor. Communication, interaction, collaboration, participation, and respect are all critical elements in teaching and tutoring. Years of daily dialogue has allowed me to become an accomplished communicator with the ability to engage my listeners, deliver difficult concepts in an understandable manner, and bridge the crucial gap between lecturing and stimulating the active participation of the student. I know how important a tutor can be in helping a student learn challenging material and the difference you can make in that person's life and future is one of the greatest feelings in the world.
I currently have over 500 hours of college level course work complete ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a former high school valedictorian I know the value of hard work. Students can succeed with the right attitude and often times a caring tutor who can find creative ways to explain the material as well as the real world relevance of what may at times appear to be dry material. Through my teaching, tutoring and real world business experience I have helped boys/young men and girls/young ladies at the high school and college level better understand science, math and english subjects in such a way that they come to truly enjoy what they are learning. I truly enjoy helping students to maximize their learning potential and look forward to earning your trust and assisting your student find joy in succeeding!
No two students learn best in only one way. So too, I believe in a multitude of teaching/tutoring styles which employ a variety of approaches such as kinesthetic, didactic, verbal, ... read more
