This particular position interests me because I struggled with math through middle school and understand the frustration it can create for a student. Mathematics is now my strongest subject and I chose the profession of accounting to utilize those strengths. During my time at college, I helped other students with their studies in math and business, specifically statistics and quantitative analysis. Although this teaching experience was with college level students, I have held a summer job working with 8-12 year olds for the past four years. When I finish my Master’s Degree, I may consider teaching at an institution such as CCAC because I enjoy helping others with their education. As a result of my post-high school studies in mathematics and business, I feel I'm suited to tutor people in those subjects. Statistics, quantitative methods, and analytical methods are my strongest subject

I began my educational career at Duquesne University where I received my BA in Mathematics. After deciding teaching was my passion, I applied to the Master of Art in Teaching program at Kent State University. During the year program I was exposed to many great opportunities, one of which was teaching a college level Algebra course. This course was a combination of Algebra 1 and 2 concepts. I was also a mentor at an after school program for middle school aged children where I tutored the students in whatever subjects needed. After graduating I got a job at Wilkingsburg School District in the Alternative Education program teaching at risk youth. I currently teach Algebra, Geometry, and Integrated Math to high school aged children. During my current job I have learned that each student has the potential to be successful. The means by which he or she achieves success, however, can be

As an educator, I specialize in student motivation and project based learning through connecting content with real world applications. Having taught in a variety of school settings (including urban) and grade levels, I understand how to break information down to support students at their level. In addition to connecting with local schools as an instructor (via supervising early pre-service teachers through field experience and observations) I also have significant experience fostering and collaborating with a large variety of community partners (business leaders, media organizations, politicians). I earned my M.A. in Educational / Developmental Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University and am currently teaching education and psychology courses at The Community College of Allegheny County.

I prefer to begin by having the student describe the current subject matter to the best of his/her abilities to determine a starting point. I have found that having the student talk through the subject matter can be useful in determining his/her strengths and level of understanding. I like to have the student work through some problems they have not been assigned from their book/notes so that they are able to practice and work through some other problems before attempting any assignments. I have also found that it is useful to go over any previous quizzes or tests related to the current subject matter as difficulties are sometimes related to previous work because with these subjects the work tends to build upon itself. I have been selected as a peer tutor through Carlow University for Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics.

I believe that every child has the unalienable right to experience some success each and every day of their lives. My approach is hands-on, student centered and nurturing. I believe in learning by discovery and the use of manipulatives in a manner whereby the student learns without even knowing it. The discovery approach is best to grasping knowledge but to process any and all information is tantamount. Knowing what to do with the information is far more important than just possessing it. Therefore, my students need to learn how to utilize their knowledge by applying it a variety of situations for true understanding. I had been a teacher for 12 years engaging in a multitude of learning styles and methodology. I spent 6 years serving as principal at all levels. I was Director of Education for two years and then served as Superintendent of Schools for two districts for a total of 15 yea

As a young person, I thought I did not need to go to college. It did not take long to realize I was wrong. Over the next 20 years, I raised two children, worked, and attended classes. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a 4.0 GPA and a degree in Information Systems. As an education advocate, I have mentored school-age children with English, Writing, and computer skills. At my church, I taught first grade CCD for six years. As a student and marketing rep, I have an extensive portfolio of marketing and writing pieces. I have helped students write Essays and Research reports on any subject. Other areas I have tutored include organization skills, confidence building, computer applications, and study skills.

I love coaching and facilitating the learning process for students of all ages.

In order to reach all students, a teacher must use a variety of teaching techniques to meet the various learning styles of the students and must therefore be both flexible and approachable. Teachers should work more as an aid or guide that facilitate the learning process, rather than as omnipotent instructors who attempt to force knowledge into the minds of their students. Information should not just be passed down as if it is the last and all-knowing word. Instead, the classroom must be student-centered with a high degree of interaction between the students and between the teacher and student. My experience in tutoring, substitute teaching, and being an elementary classroom teacher for over one year, my teaching experiences have helped me to instruct students in their learning endeavors. Also, through my love for writing and working on a book along with having an appetite for reading, t
