Middle School Earth Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Chandler, AZ

Although instructors/tutors have a preferred teaching style, I will often mix in some elements of other styles. If I wish to take a more open approach to my teaching, I include a blend of various styles which is very effective. Teacher-centered, where the teacher is expert and authority in presenting information works well with students who need little direction from the instructor, and/or those who accept responsibility for their own learning. While in other situations, I will take a learner-centered approach thus viewing my role as more of a facilitator of student learning. In 1999-2000, I provided highly individualized, one-on-one instruction in the client's homes while working with a local tutoring company. I am an experienced educator and state certified instructor with impeccable credentials and a heartfelt enthusiasm for teaching. More recently, I have tutored adults participating

I strongly believe in a " student centric" approach to teaching. This means a student-oriented teaching style that focuses heavily on each particular student, as this style assumes every student learns in a different capacity. This means that as a tutor I might need to spend more time with an individual student, accommodating the lesson plans to fit the his or her needs.

Ever since I could set up my dolls and play school with them, I have wanted to become a teacher. I graduated from Loras College, a private liberal arts school in Dubuque, Iowa, with a degree in Elementary Education. After graduating, I taught at St. Mary's in East Dubuque, Illinois for six years. My principal nominated me in 2004 for the Rotary Excellence in Teaching Award for the State of Illinois. Throughout my college experience and years at St. Mary's, I was also a lead teacher/tutor at Prodigy Child Development for their after-school and summer programs. When teaching 5th/6th grade at St. Mary's, I also taught 7th/8th grade English. For the past two years, I have been substituting full-time K-12. I am a firm believer in the power of positive thinking. At the beginning of each school year, my goals and standards are clearly set and all students know what is expected of them. Regardl

Am I allowed to quote the above example? I am just kidding but for the most part I do agree with all of those things. I am apatient and easy going person who is super-excited to to see students connect their learning with experience. I believe people in general learn best through play and experiencing things hand to hand. I like to involve as many senses as possible when learning and using past experience to build on for present/future learning. Letting students know specific goals and expectations is a very important part of learning. I love working with students of all ages and learning capabilities.

I apply great importance on the education of children and their ability to grasp concepts to make them successful members of society. I believe a solid foundation of education leads to knowledge, and knowledge leads to wisdom. My style of teaching can be described as experiential. While holding a license in Falconry, I volunteered to conduct in-class education on Birds of Prey with live Red-Tailed Hawks. Furthermore, my independent research allowed me to experience basic and complex ecological relationships in real time. By relating these real-life experiences to bridge the often times complex contents of textbooks allows valuable learning to take place. As an undergraduate, I was very involved in independent research with peers and professors alike. Specifically, I studied Ecology and Behavior in Coral Reef fishes as well as Mammalian Physiological responses to human development i

I began my teaching career as a Certified Cognitive Skills Trainer, educating children ages 6 to 17 years. For a year and a half, I helped those students improve upon their reading, comprehension, math, attention, reasoning and logic, and visualization skills. Often times, I saw my students achieve 5+ year gains. Since then, I have been working as a preschool teacher for children ages 3 and 4 years, covering introductions to math, science, reading, and other subject areas. Both my bachelor and masters degrees specialize in child development, and I am particularly skilled with young children. I am a firm believer that learning should be fun! Research shows that children learn best through exploration and play, so I strive to create this climate during all of my teaching endeavors. In addition, I spend time getting to know my students and forging relationships with them; this helps me conn
