I believe that the purpose of tutoring is to help students help themselves, or to assist or guide them to the point at which they become an independent learner. I know that the content knowledge is an essential ingredient for a tutor; however, to be truly effective, i believe a tutor must combine content knowledge with empathy, honesty and humor. In addition I demonstrate a caring attitude. Caring consists of being organized for the tutoring session, being punctual and gaining the students trust. I studied post secondary in high school and graduated in the top ten of my class. I was on the deans list every year of my college career.

The best validation I have for my teaching style is to watch my students. They are well-rounded in their knowledge and confident in their performance. I believe in enabling my students, showing them skills that will help them become independent learners. I believe that every person has strengths. When I meet my students for the first time I find out what those strengths are, and we start from there. My teaching approach is very much centered on the person I am teaching, and starting from his/her level of understanding, building confidence at each step along the way. I love teaching all ages, and delight in each stage of learning. I have been a piano teacher for 29 years, teaching privately in my home studio. I am insatiable in my pursuit of knowledge, and have wide interests. My first degree in history and philosophy influenced me in how I approached all other fields of study. I

I taught beginning accounting for a couple of years at a local private college. I also am a published musical composer and have a moderate knowledge of German. My style is one of collaboration - I learn as my clients might. I am patient and love to use examples and analogies. I am never satisfied until "all the lights are on", so to speak, and will find whatever means it takes to elicit student understanding.

I have shown that I am both an excellent student, and very well qualified to teach others. I have two bachelor degrees, a BA in German and a BSN in Nursing, which has provided me with a well-rounded education in both the liberal arts and the sciences. I documented frequently as an RN for seven years, and had an essay published in a local magazine in 2007. I have home schooled my children for more than fifteen years, two of whom have graduated from college with superior marks, and one who is excelling currently in college. I have also done educational test scoring for the past four years. My goal is to provide the best educational experience possible for any student I would teach. I would do my best to vary my approach for different subjects, and to provide a variety of experiences and settings. My desire would be that the student would enjoy learning as much as possible, because th

I like teaching by doing. I believe it helps the student when they can see what they are learning put into use. I am very patient and do no mind repeating things or explaining them in another way that the student understands. In my Spanish classes, I would often lead study groups of several students. I have received a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and a Bachelor of Arts in English. I have worked for several years as an electrical engineer.
