A good education will help confidence and income potential.

My teaching style is hands on. I get to know the student I am tutoring, figure out why they are struggling and create a plan specific to their needs.
I have tutored several students in Calculus 1, algebra and geometry. I helped several students with their placement exams in math for colleges. I worked at Inver Hills Community college tutoring center tutoring Math and Science. Being a Dyslexic that worked my way through an engineering degree. I know how important teaching and learning style is. I am also working towards becoming a Barton Certified Tutor for Dyslexia.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a preschool teacher for approximately 2 years in Head Start programs. I have substitute taught in the last year. I also was a early childhood special education paraprofessional for 1 year. I have also been a lead teacher in a learning center.
I prefer to assertive in discipline but try to understand where children are coming from. I want children to learn above all else. I think that you need to be understanding but stern. I think that you need to be compassionate yet thorough.

More About This Tutor...

I have a very modifiable style of teaching, meaning I cater to the student or students. I quickly learn the curriculum and can find multiple ways to teach it. This allows me to utilize the students major styles of learning and develop the areas where they may struggle. Teaching this way helps mold a complete student who is able to understand themselves and can learn from any lesson.
While attending and completing four years of Education courses at a well respected institution I was focused and driven to complete the curriculum and focus on creative lesson planning. Maintaining a GPA of 3.6 in Education courses while participating in four years of collegiate sports really polished my ability to multi-task. The preparation and focus applied in college paired with an immense interest in History has molded me into a life learner as well as teacher. Most of my experience is related t ... read more

I love to learn and help others do the same, whether it is helping a high school dropout pursue and finish their GED or teaching and mentoring children and young adults in volunteer settings; I love to teach, but more importantly, I enjoy trying to find the best way or creative ways to help others learn, understand and grow as people. My teaching style would be described by others as friendly, firm and yet very creative but thorough.
As a graduate of the University of Saint Thomas, I have an English degree and am a few classes/credits short of a Business Administration degree. At Bethel University I pursued a Secondary Education teaching certificate. Seeing an opportunity to teach high school english in Texas, I pursued teaching and volunteer teaching while living and working in Texas.

More About This Tutor...

I have extensive experience in teach chemistry to students. In the past while at the University of Wyoming I had extensive one on one tutoring sessions with both college students and HS students (AP students). I have also tutored in math, and physics in the past also.
First, I love helping people learn. I strive to show students and people that chemistry, math and science is all about a thought process and is something that everyone can learn. Teaching sciences is about helping and showing students how to approach the problems, and problem solve not to just solve problems individually. I also believe in using and finding many methods/examples to find how the student learns best.

I have always had a passion for teaching and learning. I graduated from Wittenberg University with two BA degress- one in Early Childhood Education, and the other in Spanish. I taught first grade for two years in Virginia, and this past year have begun graduate work at the University of Minnesota. I will have an MA in Literacy Education, and an additional licensure in K-12 Reading. I have a passion to bring all children to the highest levels of literacy as I believe literacy is key factor in not only academic success, but in life. I have tutored children in reading when I was in college, and because I have worked with kids of all ages, I would be able to tutor older children as well.

I am a patient tutor who will happily explain a point in many different ways until it clicks for my student. I pay careful attention to teaching styles that do and don't work for my students so I may taylor my style to them. I am an enthusiastic learner and I love showing my students how much fun they can have, too. When subjects get complicated, I'm great at simplifying the tricky parts and putting it into easy to understand words. Flash cards, pictures, and mnemonic devices are all tricks I've used.
I am a graduate of the University of Minnesota with a bachelor degree in Art History. My university experience has provided me with excellent skills in research, writing, oral presentation, and a broad knowledge of art and history.

I have done a lot of teaching and tutoring, both with adults and young people. Most of my experience, though, comes from working with high school and junior high school students. I spent the majority of that time as a tutor/ mentor and would work with the students one on one or in small groups, both in the library or in the classroom. It was really the most wonderful experience and I was able to provide tremendous benefits to the students on both an academic and personal level.
I really do place something of a premium on being able to connect with all of my students on an academic and personal level. I believe that this helps them as they know that their teacher and tutor cares about them and their future and, as such, this causes them to grow and excel. I can attest to such things happening with many of my students and for that I am incredibly thankful.
