My teaching style is progressive. I believe education should be entertaining, however not entertainment. I enjoy challenging my students, however to do this effectively it is important that they remain engaged. One of the ways in which I do this is to encourage students to think creatively. Creativity is the key to success with education. Not only does it foster confidence and positive self-esteem, creativity keeps the brain on its toes, so to speak, by continually challenging students’ abilities and forcing students to expand beyond their academic comfort zone. Teaching students to develop new ways to solve problems generates the confidence needed to succeed not only in school but also in life. My interest in becoming a tutor stems from my life long passion for teaching and learning. Throughout the past eight years, I have focused my efforts on soaking up my education and research exper

I come from a family of seven children, four of them younger than me, and three of them adopted from the Philippines. Growing up in this setting has allowed me to become patient, tolerant, understanding, and loving. I believe that each child is different and capable of great things if acknowledged in an enthusiastic and attentive manner. I believe in asking children guiding questions to lead them through difficult material without directly presenting an answer or lecturing. I believe in using my own creativity to come up with new methods of learning so that children respond to subjects they may not otherwise enjoy. I plan on making a career out of teaching as it is my passion and I yearn to make a difference in the learning experiences of young children. I recently graduated from the University of Colorado with a bachelor's degree in architecture which allowed me to be very understa

My first belief is that you have to make a student believe in themselve. You do this by letting them know that the system has failed them, but together we can bridge the gap of what you need now to get your grades caught up and work backwards to learn what you have missed. I driven to find innovative ways to make them learn, like using coins and other objects like liquid containers. Making jokes about historical events that are so dumb they have to remember. I believe we can change the world a couple people at a time. I am a enthusiastic 21 year old in a 51 year old body. I am able to reach students of all ages and to find out what they require to learn. I am well rounded in most subjects, I play several instuments and sing. I am an excellent mechanic, plumber, household electrician, and carpenter. I am warm hearted and fun loving and I enjoy working and being energized by the youthful

I love working with kids and watching them learn and grow. It amazes me every year to see students who don't believe in themselves grow into kids who see their full potential. The light in their eyes is priceless. My approach to teaching is along the lines of the "Love and Logic" program. I believe that when children are offered choices, they feel more empowered to make decisions that are best for their futures and who they want to become. I also believe that modeling what I expect is the best way to achieve positive results in student behavior and work ethic. Students will always see me working hard! I am a current high school teacher who loves her job! I earned my Bachelor's Degree at Iowa State University in Secondary English Education, and then a School Counseling Master's Degree at UNLV. I have a strong passion for learning and love to share that passion with kids. My strengths in e

My teaching style can be described in two words: persistent and patient. I believe that the reason why a student may seem disinterested in education is due to fear of not understanding the subject, embarrassment of failure, and/or lack of self-motivation or focus. But all of these can be overcome with a persistent tutor who does not give up on the student, and who is patient to understand that the student just needs more time and work. I believe that all students have the potential to accomplish goals and triumph over any learning impediments. During the last two years that I have been tutoring I have thoroughly enjoyed helping students to overcome impediments and improve their skills. As a recent college graduate, I uphold and advocate the educational experience as an essential part of life. It not only expands our mental capabilities, but also builds confidence into individuals.

From the moment I entered high school, I had a thirst for knowledge. Even though I was already attending the top private school in Atlanta, I wanted to ensure the maximum level of achievement. Therefore, I applied to the top boarding school in the country, Phillips Exeter Academy, and was granted admission! After high school, I attended the independant ivy, Wesleyan University, where my learning continued, not only in the classroom, but also outside of the classroom. I became a mentor and a tutor during my junior year. I am pleased to say that I am still on the journey of achieving a stellar eduaction, but more importantly, I am utilizing and enjoying my skills in sharing knowledge with others. My tutoring has progressed and remained a large part on my life. I would like to continue on this path to educate the world! As a teacher, I like to inspire the student to be the best that they ca

I graduated from the University of Nevada, Reno in May of 2009 with a Bachelor's of Science in Geography, an interdisciplinary field which enabled me to cover a broad area of subject matter throughout my studies. From studying abroad in Italy, and working abroad in Ecuador, I have a knowledge of Spanish and Italian. For the 2009-2010 school year, I was a substitute teacher in the Elko County School District, and gained valuable experience instructing and tutoring students of all ages, from Kindergarten to High School, and in a wide variety of subject matter, including Geography and other sciences, English, Mathematics, Spanish, and Italian. I discovered my passion for instructing, tutoring, and working with youth during my experience as a substitute teacher.

My teaching style is somewhat relaxed so that I can encourage my students to open up. When I first begin tutoring someone I let them do things their way rather than tell them how to do something. Then, I tell them that if their method isn't working, we will try it my way. In addition to teaching them the material, I try to pass off good studying habits as well. For example, rather than help a student write a paper by simply editing their paper, I try to show the student how helpful brainstorming is, and/or how to create an efficient, simple outline. I also try to find at least one thing a student is good at and encourage him in that area. Once a student realizes he is good at something, he feels more confident in other areas as well. I started tutoring in NYC when I was a junior in high school. I tutored a sixth grader and an eighth grader, and helped them with all of their homewo

I have a BS in Conservation Biology and an MA in Secondary Ed. Science. I have been teaching for the past 8 years with an emphasis on Biology and Environmental Science and also extensive experience with special needs students. I enjoy working with children as it affords me the opportunity to see the world through different eyes that are open to many possibilities. I firmly believe that all children can and in fact do learn. Learning takes place at all levels but only when motivation is intrinsic. As an educator, I work to find what that intrinsic motivation is and then allocate the resources that enable that motivation to blossom into success. Often success is enhanced in the sciences through the use of manipulatives and experimentation. This adds to the value of the lesson by giving it a sense of relavence, greatly increasing the level of success for the learner. It also makes it
