More About This Tutor...

During my time at Concordia College, I was a strong tutor and office manager for the Reading/Writing Center, helping with composition in both English and Spanish. My grammar and usage knowledge is quite extensive, and I love tutoring writing and composition. I've also done quite a lot of tutoring in the ESL environment, as well as tutoring elementary math and reading.
I see my job as that of facilitator: the student is there, the information is there, and the student is the learner. I'm just there to guide, explain, provide details, clarify, relate new information to existing knowledge, etc. The student has to be "in charge," so to speak. I can't force knowledge into someone's mind, it has to be learned, but I can help make that information real and relevant to provide the motivation to learn. I'm very attentive to affective factors (stress, irrelevance, animosity, etc.) that ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Every kid is different in their own special way. You need different tactics per different kid. Being that I am patient and caring I know that it wouldn't take long for them to get comfortable with me and have me assist them. I believe that every good deed should be rewarded and if the student is doing well he shall be treated so, with a possible treat or even a pat on the back. I feel that if a child is told what they are doing right rather than what they are doing wrong they are more likely to have a positive outlook on what task they are trying to accomplish.
As a young college student I understand that my experience doesn't compare to those with degrees and much time doing it. But I know that being an older sister to younger brothers and sisters while helping them with homework and watching them grow up is a type of tutoring. I have been there for all my brothers milestones, whe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Private tutoring is the kind of teaching I enjoy the best. Workings with one student at a time or with the smaller groups are advisable to maximize the benefits of tutoring.Usually, I take a uniquely common sense approach by listening students’ questions. This gave me insight into how theyperceived the material and where their understanding was breaking down. My intent is to provide clear and through explanations for the problems. In addition, I create a supportive learninenvironment in which students are comfortable, by identifying the best way to convey the material in a way that matches the individual needs. Helping students is rewarding and satisfying for me.
I graduated from the High School with advanced classes of mathematics and physics.I received a Bachelor of Economics and a Bachelor for Accounting/Bookkeeping from Tallinn Polytechnic University (Europe). In 2005, I compl ... read more
