Elementary Tutor and Student Development

Patience is one word to describe my teaching style. My main objective is to work with students on goal-setting and then concentrate on how to meet those goals.
My teaching experience includes several semesters of substitute teaching, and tutoring locally for 2+ years as a part-time job, dirived from volunteering as a tutor for family members and friends. As a tutor, it is my job to help students with whatever it is they are struggling in and turn their struggles to successes. I specialize in working with those who want to become better readers - comprehension, fluence, vocabulary, phonics and spelling are all key to becoming a better reader.

More About This Tutor...

I have tutored for many years. I first started tutoring in High School, then while I was in College and lately for the neighborhood children. I have brought younger children up to speed in reading (k-5). I have worked with children in Middle School and High School with their math work. I have tutored pre-algebra and algebra.
I have a completely hands on approach to teaching. I work with the student to see what it is they understand and what they do not. From there we work through the different areas until the student fully understands what they are missing. This allows for the student to feel as though they have a sense of accomplishment.

More About This Tutor...

Since I was a child, I knew I was a writer. I made it the objective of my study from middle school through college. I recently graduated with a degree in Journalism and Media Studies and have put it to work for the past year as a researcher/reporter with the Las Vegas Business Press. Over the years, I have held a number of positions where communications and education overlap. I had the opportunity to work with elementary-aged students in reading and writing groups based on their level. I also assisted the CALL program with ESL and GED training for adult students.
Educators have an enormous responsibility to the next generation. It is important to provide a student with tools they can use based on their learning style. I think it is most important to encourage creativity and learn from the students as much as they learn from you. To establish a common language in the learning proces ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a current student at UNLV earning my dual Bachelor degrees in Marketing and Health Care Administration. During my time as a student I have helped tutor my brother and friends in various subjects from English to Math. I have been able to develop my grammatical skills through extensive report and research papers and many communications and writing classes.
I believe children learn through experiences. I encourage children to work through what they are having difficulties with and guide them through the correct process. I believe just telling a child what to do doesn't actually give them an opportunity to process everything completely. That is why when I work with children I am patient and adjust the environment to each child's unique learning techniques.
