A Little Bit About Me...

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 newspaper. English has always come naturally to me and I've found writing to be a fun outlet for all of my energy and would love an opportunity to share my education and teach others.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from the University of Washington last year with a BA in Journalism. I've also received an AA Degree from Highline Community College. Unlike many Journalism students, I have experience in arithmetic like algebra, pre-calculus and calculus. I've tutored students in math and writing, from first graders to college peers.
I am a very patient, hands-on style of tutor. I take the time and try to explain things to people who have a hard time understanding. I try to gage what the student is struggling with and also what they do understand, so I can quickly pinpoint their troubles and focus on the problem issue. Some kids need more explaining, others need a picture drawn out for them. I am good at finding what method people learn best with.

In my ten years at Auburn Adventist Academy (AAA) teaching art, I have seen that for some students, academics, but in my art classes they not only found success but gained confidence and excelled. During the school year my students learn shading, perspective, contour, and scratch board drawing. I require the maintenance of a daily sketch journal to show increased progress during each semester. Being an art instructor/tutor is an opportunity that I have looked forward to for some time.
I hold an M A in Art with an emphasis in Drawing and Painting,and have taught at Auburn Adventist Academy for the past ten years. I also have a B.A. in Art from Southern Adventist University, Collegedale, TN. Seeking to find a path to a career in the commercial art world I obtained an Associate of Applied Arts in Visual Communications/Graphic Design at the Art Institute of Seattle, Seattle, WA ... read more

Teaching is a true passion of mine. Tutoring my niece and nephew whom are ages 10 and 11 has opened my eyes to understanding the needs of children in an academic setting. I am patient teacher with a humorous yet professional approach. Educators can profoundly influence and enhance a child’s life, and I welcome any chance to be a part of that.
I would like to continue to develop my teaching skills while creating a challenging and fun learning environment for students. Currently, I am working towards a Graduate Degree in Geography and Education. I have extensive knowledge in areas of social studies as well as writing research papers. While I have over two years tutoring children in K- 5th grade, I welcome the opportunity to work students of all ages and grade levels. I have worked with both elementary and middle school teachers to help them develop curricula that meet the needs of ... read more

During my studies at USU I worked at Adams Elementary both as a Teachers Aid as well as a Mentor during the After School Program. I worked one-on-one as well as in groups of students grade k-5. This position was one of the most rewarding and enjoyable that I've had and would love to continue. I have also taught American Sign Language at the University in their ASL Labs for a year.
Everyone has the ability to learn but not everyone has the same ability. Most people are visual or tactile learners whereas most teachers, in my experience, use verbal/aural instruction methods. I believe in tailoring my teaching to the needs of the student and not to what I am most relaxed with. I have personally taught several tactile students who had to have something in their hands or they could not grasp the concepts. Other times I've instructed students in strong visual methods incorporating drawin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with students to set and accomplish learning goals. I look for ways to make subject matter relevant to each individual by looking for ways it relates to their own life. I enjoy helping each student discover the overarching themes and conquer the details to create a cohesive understanding of subject matter. As an educator, I look to inspire the spirit of discovery and wonder in my students that I have found in studying sciences.
I have experience working with students of all ages. I've taught elementary classes, college level labs and adult specific classes. I have always been driven to do well in my studies and have found success helping others achieve their academic goals. Science is so fun and I love helping others understand the complexities of how it all works and fits together.
