Highly motivated, intuitive, and results-focused tutor

If you were to ask my students and co-workers to describe me and my work, you would hear things like: “extremely fast worker, high standards for quality, dependable and always meets deadlines, very easy to work with, eager to help you succeed, a positive, entertaining and enjoyable person to be around.” I am consistently inspired to learn new skills related to creativity. The breath of my skill set makes me a valuable tutor as I can perform many different duties. I would be grateful for the opportunity to speak with you further about the ways that I could create valuable learning experiences for this position and your child.

My comments on tutoring Composition : Well rounded in teaching composition in all elementary grades. Was a Forensics coach and judge for MPS.

As a teacher of diversified classrooms for 15 years, I am well versed in using the methodologies of cooperative learning, direct instruction, thematic teaching, individual accommodation, and differentiated instruction. I foster learning strengths in both group and individual work connected to real world connections, self confidence, social interaction, study skills, character building and problem solving skills. As a personal tutor for more than 10 years, I incorporate these methods with prompts and information about the child from the parents, to best accommodate both academic and personal concerns.
I have worked with children in a variety of settings and ages over the past 25 years: church camp counselor, gymnastics coach, dance instructor, theater, forensics judge, tutor, and classroom teacher. These experiences have both shaped my style of teaching and equipped me with a broad ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I developed my passion for teaching others from a a pre-college program I was in called Upward Bound. I learned study skills, time management and other skills that helped me excel in college. After college graduation,i obtained a tutoring position with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.I served as a mentor as well guiding them through the difficulties of high school and applying for college and financial aid. My next position was for Admission Possible. Admission Possible is a non profit organization whose main purpose is to get low income students into college. I held after school workshops where I taught them how to apply for scholarships, write high quality essays and how to put together a good resume.
I believe the best way for students to learn is by doing and discovering the material hands on as oppose to being lectured to. I like to instruct demonstrate the learning mater ... read more

I encourage as much open communication as possible. It is important that students feel comfortable so they can ask any question that pops into their head and are willing to accept that they will make mistakes on the road to getting it right, doesn't always happen the first time!
I was recently accepted into a Graduate Program and will soon start the long road to my Masters and PhD in History to some day be a History Professor. I have a BA in Integrated Marketing Communications with an emphasis in Creative Advertising and my second major was History. I love helping others, I find it to be the most rewarding work and no better way to help others than to help them learn. I am comfortable assisting students of all ages!

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a 21 year-old senior attending UW-Milwaukee. I will be graduated in December 2012 with a BA in Literary and Critical Studies with a minor in Philosophy. I have not had any formal experience with tutoring but have always been someone who my friends and fellow students seek out to proof read their papers and to give suggestions or comments. Last semester I made the Dean's List here at the university and I am maintaining a 3.8 accumulative GPA.
I am a very patient and compassionate individual. I will always help a person capitalize on his or her academic strengths, while working patiently but dilligently to recognize his or her weaknesses.

Listen. Understand. Work together.

Listen carefully. Understand the needs and strengths of others. Develop trust. Work toward a common goal.
I believe truly effective communication is a basic component that lies at the heart of success in any venture. Now after eighteen years working with a national leader in the insurance industry I am looking to tap in to the skills I learned there, as well as those used in a successful freelance writing career, to help advance the goals of just such a venture. I have worked in developing business analysis and training documentation, researched and written articles, book reviews and book-length histories of a company and its CEO. With published work in The Business Journal and Community Newspapers, Inc. I have worked under deadline to create concise and informative tools of information that have helped 'get the word out.' And therein lies the key to success.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student I enjoyed most the teachers who facilitated learning. Teachers who lead students on a road of discovery as they learned, who taught me how to think and not what to think. I model my teaching after the same style I enjoyed as a student. Helping a student discover for themselves the material not only educates them but fosters a passion for the subject at hand. Rote memory has it's place and is essential, but when a student becomes passionate about a subject, then the door is open for them to excel at it. I teach and tutor with the goal in mind to foster that passion, that drive and to be able to carry it throughout a life of learning.
I was an exceptionally driven high school student, taking the most difficult schedule my small private school would offer. My course work included AP calculus and AP US government, on both exams I received good marks. In college I st ... read more
