Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back. Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style.

I believe that it is important to have fun while learning. A good example would be my experience with science. I used to hate science, but my senior year of high school I had a great teacher in my Advanced Biology class. He made the class fun and entertaining. I believe that is the best way to teach someone. I do not have a ton of experience. I am a college student currently attending Utah Vally University. I love to work with people. I am currently studying Behavioral Science. I am a quick learner myself and I have a lot of patience. I currently volunteer at a Children's Justice Center. And I work at Survey Sampling International. I love to teach people of all ages. I know I don't have a ton of experience, but I hope that someone will give me a chance to prove myself. I really would love to tutor.

I love teaching. Currently I am working with adults in debt management and financial counseling. Money management is critical to the survival of a family and easily sabotaged by impulse spending. I most enjoy one-on-one situations. I have good people skills and have worked with children and adults from many cultures and walks of life. I was first introduced to accounting by owning my own business. Then I was hired by an engineering company to update their bookkeeping method from paper to computer. I became proficient in troubleshooting discrepancies and providing users with solutions. I interfaced with Federal and State taxing agencies, banks, and lending institutions requiring reports and/or payments. I then moved on to a Software Development company as a Product Manager of accounting software being developed for internet use by accountants. I trained and answered questions, wrote

I graduated Bachelors Degree Major in Political Science and took second course on Special Education under Graduate Studies at the University of the Visayas. Then got actively involved with BEST BUDDIES PHILIPPINES,organizing fund raising activities for children with special needs. Currently I am doing volunteer work for Wasatch Peak Academy assisting Reading Literacy class for third grade, so as to gain and hone my teaching skills and adapt the way of teaching in America. I always observe and learn the person's attitude and characteristics, as it will help me a lot to enculcate learning. I love to talk and teach. I love kids. And I believe no matter how difficult a child can achieve efficiency in learning, there is always a way to do it. For me teaching is an Art. There is always a room to make learning happen. Each child is unique and has the potential, but one great factor to

I enjoy teaching children, working with them to find their talents, and strengths. All children have the ability to learn, each child learns differently so it is important to find out each child's learning style so that learning is made easier for them. I have worked with special needs children, for three years. I believe that children learn through using their different senses. I am patient, easy going and have the students best interest in mind. I believe that all children can be successful in their education, and I love being part of that success. Graduated from University of Phoenix with my B.A. in psychology, currently enrolled in the Masters of special education program from the University of Phoenix. Worked with children from different ages since 1999.Have worked in private and charter school settings. Have tutored students in all subjects. Currently working with children with spe

I have a very interactive personality. I love to get kids involved in their subjects outside of the textbook. I have seen from years of experience that students do better when the can find real life applications of material in everyday life then just to finish an assignment. I know that there are many different learning styles and no one particular way can be right for every child. I am flexible and want to help children accomplish their learning objectives with excitement and desire to learn more. I have had 15 yrs experiences working with kids age 2-18 in different areas from reading, math, afterschool programs, special needs and general assistance. I completed my Masters in Education at Arizona State University and have worked in two different non-profits specializing in at risk youth completing high school. I have tutored in English, math, reading, and science in the elementary age.

Having recently graduated with a master's degree in Literature and Writing, during which I also taught two college-level freshman writing courses, I am well versed in literature, writing mechanics, organization, brainstorming techniques, etc. I have taught high school on the Navajo Reservation. I received an English bachelor's degree from BYU. Also, as a professional writer myself, it is necessary for me to possess a wide knowledge base: mathematics, physics, biology, ecology, geography, etc. I am also fluent in Spanish. Teaching is a personal act. Though I have enjoyed being in the classroom and seeing students develop as a community of learners, I have seen the most progress by addressing students' individual needs in a one-on-one situation. I see literature as one of most effective ways that people come to understand one another, the act of reading being a fundamentally unselfish and

I want to help students question to find meaning in life. I want to help students learn which questions to ask so that their answers are founded in principle and not merely reactions against traditional authority or thought. The art of learning is a skilled art. The task of leading another to discovery is a weighty one. I take the time of my students seriously. I would not waste their time any more than I wish mine to be wasted. Passion drives my life and my teaching. I feel the literature. I feel language. I recognize the need to individualize the presentation to each student’s experiences and understandings if s/he is to discover the joy of learning. As I finish a master’s degree in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in training and development, I realize that I want to continue my formal educational while sharing my love of learning. My prior formal education includes a doub

My teaching style might be a bit unorthodox but it is something I have acquired from past teachers and tutors. I have not helped or tutored in a while but I believe I have an easy and simple approach to it. When it comes to physics and chemistry, the math can be learned over night, the concepts are most critical. You can't read a problem and interpret the question word for word. You have to find a way to relate it to real life and what you see everyday. A spinning disk becomes a truck tire, a sound device becomes a sub woofer. Things that you can relate to. I have yet to complete my senior year of studies at the University but I will be done by Spring 2011. I am working towards my first Bachelors Degree, BS in Physics and will continue with school after until I get my MS in Chemical Engineering. Physics and Chemistry have always come easy to me and I know that because of this I can help

During my four years at Case Western Reserve University, I became aware of the needs of the city schools in the area and worked to help improve the situations in the schools. I worked with AmericaREADS, OhioREADS and other similar programs to help tutor children who were not able to get the individual attention they needed in the classroom. Because of my background in engineering, I am excellent in math and science but I also enjoy helping in reading, writing, and assisting the children in enhancing their studying skills. I enjoy working with children of most ages although I worked mainly with K, first, fourth and high school levels during my four years of experience. I believe everyone has the ability to reach their greatest potential with appropriate help and that sometimes extra assistance can be the difference between success and failure. I use rewards to help children feel bette
