I Love to Help People

Hi My Name is Shanda. I am 23 years old. I don't have a lot of experience in some stuff but I graduated from High School in 2011 with a High School Diploma. I just love to help people and I am working my way to work in a hospital from an administrative assistant and would like to work my way up to become a NICU nurse that works with Premature Babies. That's why I am going to college for my Bachelors Degree in Health Administration. My daughter that is now 4 was 2 months Premature and ever since then I have always wanted to work with children and babies.
I am a very laid back woman. I like to understand what way you learn easiest and I will help the best I can. I like to make sense of it for you in your way of learning.

As a teacher's-assistant for children ages 4-6 I have been able to gain experience working with them one on one and in whole groups for almost two years. This has taught me the value of identifying with the child's unique learning needs in order to encourage and drive their academic success. I believe children need patience from their tutors, steady encouragement, and to be in a positive environment that allows them to feel comfortable, focused, and ready to learn without distraction. The importance of good and fun learning early on is so vital to children, and I believe it is our duty as adults to encourage this on a daily basis.

I love helping and teaching children. I have given riding lessons to all ages of children for years, realizing there is no better feeling than helping children accomplish their goals. I would love to help children in any way I can to meet their academic goals, I know what it is like to have to study hard for what you want to accomplish. Being 25 I feel, and just being a graduate myself, I think can be a way to relate to the children and what they are trying to achieve. I would love to gain this type of experience and would really enjoy this type of work. I also have had a lot of psychology classes and feel that I am good at connecting with people and understanding the problems they are trying to get through.
I just graduated from PLU with a degree in Business, a concentration in human resources, and a minor in psychology. I maintained a high GPA throughout my college experience and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an outgoing, positive individual and this style comes across clearly when I work with children. I have a gift when it comes to making learning fun and rewarding. Much of a person's self esteem is derived from their accomplishments, therefore it is important to me that the children that I work with learn "how" to do the work, rather than someone giving up on teaching and doing it for them. I am very patient. If I have to explain something several times, I'll do it without displaying frustration and always staying positive. I love teaching kids in a positive way and in a positive environment!
I am highly qualified to tutor in the areas of English/reading/writing. I currently volunteer at my son's school and assist children with assignments, I have created well written manuals and marketing materials for local businesses and have also written brief articles for the Herald newspap ... read more

Over the years, I came to realize that things such as getting yourself in the student's shoe and understanding his/her environmnet is critical in customizing a teaching for that specific person. Some students like studying in a very fun environment while other may find it distracting. Therefore, developing a flexible approach has been helpful for me because I have been able to serve different types of students in various age range. I believe knowledge is essential for self-confidence; in this dynamic and competitive environment, we all have to keep our knowledge up-to-date.

I have tutored and educated staff to raise their knowledge and understanding in an effort to help them appreciate their role and the benefit of their effort toward the goals of the overall department and organization. It has been my privilege to work with many bright, wonderful people who often didn't know "why they were doing what they were doing" or how important their role/work was to the whole. As a manager, I knew/know that 'you can only be as good as your people'. I love to see people succeed and come to believe in themselves and their abilities. I come from a long line of teachers and decided I didn't want to be another teacher--isn't if funny that I have most enjoyed the teacher/mentor role within work environments!

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Pacific Lutheran University I thoroughly enjoyed the quality education experience I received and would like others to have a quality educational experience as well. Through earning a Bachelor's degree in history and a Minor in Spanish I have learned many important skills that allow me to help others learn as well. As a history major I learned the importance of paying attention to the details, the skills to research, the process of gathering evidence to support a claim, the writing process, and many other valuable lessons. As a Spanish minor I have a thorough understanding of Spanish grammar and speaking skills and was a Spanish tutor at PLU.
My objective as a tutor is to instill confidence in those I help in their ability to learn and succeed in an academic environment. Having confidence in the ability to learn allows a person to be a lifelong learner and use their ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

It is my considered opinion that there are many styles of teaching that can work effectively with students. Generally, I feel that it is best to adapt the style of teaching to the personality, interest, and capability of the student. My preference is working with teens and young adults, with whom I find that a style that guides them to find the answers for themselves is of greatest advantage. To do this, I tend to patiently guide students with a series of questions, only "jumping in" with information when they begin to appear to have reached a point of frustrated impasse.

As a former classroom teacher and district literacy coordinator and instructional coach, I feel that I have a wealth of experience helping children of all socioeconomic, language, and academic levels. After relocating, I branched out into different educational avenues, such as developing elementary math curriculum for a software company and contract work for various academic-support companies. Currently, I independently contract with two education-based companies, as well as tutor students in an academic center. I have tutored English Language Learners in Integrated Language Arts, Writing, and Mathematics. Currently, I tutor Phonics, Reading and Language Arts, and Mathematics (2nd to 8th grade).

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach, and I believe my teaching style is very laid back. I like to allow my students to attempt things and try to figure it out with the information I provide. That way I know they are grasping the concepts. That is more important to me then speeding through a course just to get things done. I would be a failure if one of my students left my course not knowing exactly what they were doing. So I pride myself in slowing down if needed to ensure everyone is on the same page and can retain the information that is being taught to them.
My experience as a teacher began in my Church, I taught for 3 years in one of our Sunday School classes. My students ranged in age from 2-11 years old. After graduation from the University of Washington I was unsure if Education was what I wanted to do. So I chose a different path, and found out just how much I loved to teach. I decided to take ... read more
