I have always been a very curious and academic person. I love to learn and like to pass that on to my students. It makes it easier because I have really lived a lot of the things I teach. I grew up in a small town in Idaho and excelled in both my Math and Science classes. At 16 I decided I needed to see the world so I moved to Argentina as an exchange student. I spent a year learning both the culture and language of the country. I was able to travel a lot and really felt like a member of their society. I returned and finished my senior year of high school. I was in the top 10% of my class at graduation with a 3.8GPA. After a 4 month stay in Argentina again I was off to college to study Business and Spanish at Louisiana State University. I excelled in my Spanish and loved being in business. During my junior year I spent 6 months in Costa Rica, and a month in Peru continuing m

The majority of my work experience has been with young children. I believe that each pupil is unique and it is most important to discover what learning style(s) work best for them. I prefer a constructivist approach in where the learning takes place side by side and with as much "hands on" opportunities as possible. Also, I like my students to fully grasp a conceot and have a true understanding of what they are learning. Time is the key and ofeten times students do not have the "time" within a school day or year to get the necessary assistance they need only at shcool or from their teacher. I am a driven and motivated person with a high level of expectation. I have earned my B.S. in Graphic Design and have extensive English/writing and mathematics skills. I have tutored children of elementary, middle, and high school grades; in addition to being an elementary school reading coach.

As a son, grandson and nephew of those who have been educators on the high school and collegiate level, I understood what study skills were required of me to become an exceptional student. Being the eldest son, my brothers leaned on me to assist them with homework and projects. I was held accountable throughout my educational career and a sturdy set of study skills helped me maintain my scholarship and achieve goals I set for myself. I just finished studying for and taking the LSAT and feel that my study skills helped. I have tutored friends and family and have been a volunteer coach teaching the game of basketball and football. I think I can relate to the student because at some point of your life you will need someone to help you understand a topic a little better or lend a hand in teaching the subject in their terms to help you maximize your potential. Sometimes a student just nee

As a tutor, I would work with students to meet individualized needs, allowing for adjustment of my style as appropriate. I operate under the assumption that all students are engaged in a lifelong process of learning. I seek to inspire learning through varied teaching formats, including lectures, discussions, reflective and reflexive writing, group exercises, audio/visual resources, and experiential learning methods. I highly value utilization of thoughtful reflection, careful analysis, and critical thinking skills. I strive to inspire students to relate learning beyond academic perimeters, and thus situate concepts within relevant historical contexts and cross-cultural examples. My considerable patience allows students to work through materials at their own paces, allowing for thorough understandings before proceeding to advanced levels. Finally, I communicate clearly and effectivel

There are a variety of skills and methods one may employ to be a good teacher. First and foremost one needs to be knowledgeable and patient. I have a decent education but have continued to improve myself by continuing to read a wide range of subjects for all of my adult life, this plethora of material has helped to instruct students in many areas. More importantly I am patient; learning can take an extensive amount of time with some students. It cannot be rushed, and so one must be able to drill and inspire the most basic material into the most dull of people if one is to do well as a teacher. Lastly, I believe I have both an aptitude and enjoyment for teaching. It has been an easy career for me as I take real pleasure when I realize a student or a class has mastered (or even understood) a subject matter. I have a variety of experiences which have helped to shape my life as a teac
