A Little Bit About Me...

I have 38 years of business and professional experience. I have mentored over 100 individuals in many different areas. Please see my Profile for my areas of expertise. My mentees have been more than pleased with the results. I also mentor in life skills such as work-life balance, females in a "male" work force, dealing with stress/pressure at work and at home.
I adjust to what the mentee wants or what works the best for the particular mentee. Everyone learns, absorbs information, and applies it in different ways. I am flexible in my teaching style.

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer to use current real world content as a way to demonstrate historical ideas in an easier context to understand. I believe that students benefit more from this type of instruction because it can put difficult concepts in a way that is easier to relate to.
I recently graduated from the University of North Dakota with a Bachelor's of Science in Secondary Education. I student taught at Central High School in Grand Forks, North Dakota from January to May of 2018 and I have years of experience working with upper aged students from my work with the Boy Scouts of America and the Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Board.

Alan Chamberlain "I know it All"!

Adaptive to the individual learning style.
I have excellent communication skills and I have taken the coursework to be a Social Studies Teacher from the University of Wisconsin-Superior. I believe that presenting material that fits one's learning style is a key to success in difficult subjects. Patience and flexibility are 2 attributes I possess and I believe is must in teaching subjects to people who's learning style do not work well with the established regimen. Everyone thinks and processes information in an individual style and I believe in trying to find that style. I am a 56 year old retiree from United Parcel Service, so I come with a maturity and perspective that is unique among educators. I love people and helping them succeed at whatever they attempt in life. After all we are all in this together.

Patient. Positive.Encouraging. Keeping it light. My primary aim would be to build the student's self confidence and image. Encouraging enthusiasm for the subject matter,by making it more receptive,would be an additional desired outcome. I would place special emphasize on promoting the need to read,write,and speak well, regardless of the subject. Teaching critical thinking would also be a goal. An instructor can't really teach a student. But the pupil can be given learning support and the tutor can plant the desire to pursue the individual's own education at their own pace, by providing the right guidance.

A Little Bit About Me...

While earning my BA in history, I was able to lean many aspects of history. My studies ranged from the Mild Ages to the 1960s and current. I was also able to intern with the Sherburne County History Center where I learned on the job techniques and how to interact with children. Though teaching was not my primary role at the History Center, I was exposed to many opportunities not only to teach but to help others track down their lineage.
Teaching comes easily to me especially with high school and college age students. I highly enjoy accelerated history, critical thinking and exploring the odd details of history. I tend to be a stern teacher with high expectations for students. This being said, I try my hardest to help students comprehend and understand the material being learned. I am fair and patient with others while also pushing them towards their goals. Outside sources and visua ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a substitute teacher for over a year. I have subbed for every grade level and subject. A significant amount of my sub jobs have been math related. I am working on my Master's Degree at The College of Saint Scholastica, in Education. I also have had numerous classroom field experiences through the college, where I have been observed by other teachers and professors. During these experiences, every cooperating teacher has let me use them as a reference. From substitute teaching to my prior career as a correctional officer, I have a tremendous amount of experience turning a bad situation into a good one. In a tutoring environment, I have a lot to offer the student(s).
My teaching philosophy is simple; I believe in providing a safe and positive atmosphere for students to learn. In creating this positive atmosphere I motivate my students by showing them that they can in ... read more

I believe that being knowledgeable and cultured is a basic condition to become a well-rounded person and a conscious citizen. Learning a second language is also quite important as one does not just acquire another tongue but moreover another way of thinking and a new vision of the world. I love teaching and conversing with my students.
Hi, My name is Muriel, I am a 28 year old French Political Science graduate (MA) from La Sorbonne University, Paris. I've studied Corporate and Public communication, media and politics.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching students of all ages, individually or in groups. I find the Socratic method most useful, and with children this translates into making the subject (i.e. German grammar) seem like a puzzle that, with some effort, can be solved. I think students are best served when they can discover these answers for themselves.
I have a BA in English and a Master's and Ph.D. in German (Germanic Linguistics). I have taught English literature as a substitute in junior and senior high schools, college level German, linguistics, English reading and writing and English as a Second language. I have taught and tutored children and adult learners. My teaching experience has been in Germany, California and Minnesota. I also tutored ACT/SAT in Minnesota.

I have a strong background in English, and am currently working toward a Master's degree at the University of St. Thomas. In addition to my strengths in academic research and writing, I have written solicitation letters and grant proposals for a nonprofit. I have tutored for seven years at three different institutions, including Normandale Community College, The University of Minnesota Center for Writing, and the Starting Point program for low income, first generation, and disabled college students at Minneapolis Community College. In addition to writing, I have helped students with reading, the humanities, and study skills.
One thing I have learned in my many years as a tutor is that each student is unique. I try to be flexible in my approach. With grammar and mechanics, I have found that a directive manner is often the best approach; sometimes, however, students require clar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy when there is a connection between educator and student, and that student is able to apply wisdom to solve problems, and ultimately succeed throughout life. Most students that have difficulty with class seem, to me, to not have confidence in their abilities or potential. I believe in always looking for something positive when tutoring, and to build from a foundation of hope. Motivation and an understanding of the joy and benefits of learning are elements I try to instill in students. I also understand that at times I am wrong, and, more importantly, that I can learn from my students. Respecting a student, listening carefully to their concerns, and grasping where there is a block to their learning are key to adjusting what and how to teach him or her. Great teaching involves great communication.
I have actually attended three universities,including Miami of Ohio and the Uni ... read more
