A Little Bit About Me...

I believe strongly in Experiential learning and alternative approaches to education that involve active participation from the student. I appreciate Heidegger's view on education as he states: "Teaching is more difficult than learning because what teaching calls for is this: to let learn... The real teacher, in fact, lets nothing else be learned than — learning."
I am a recent summa cum laude graduate from St. Catherine University in Saint Paul MN, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in French and Studio Arts. I am currently finishing a year long fellowship at the Marchutz School of Fine Arts in the South of France where I have participated in the immersive painting and drawing program in addition to providing guidance and assistance to students. In my spare time I also tutor English and French as a second language to children ages 5-10. Being extensively involved in the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe in a teaching style that reflects a student's learning style. Whether they learn best by hearing, seeing, or doing it is important to cater to the student. My teaching style works around this philosphy and tends to be a combination of all 3 styles.
Although I have recently graduated with a degree in business, I am interested in pursuing a career involving people. My previous employment was a sales position that was very customer-oriented. I also have 3 years of experience helping children by teaching swimming lessons. Assisting my 15-year-old sister with her school work is also a regular activity.

I have a very modifiable style of teaching, meaning I cater to the student or students. I quickly learn the curriculum and can find multiple ways to teach it. This allows me to utilize the students major styles of learning and develop the areas where they may struggle. Teaching this way helps mold a complete student who is able to understand themselves and can learn from any lesson.
While attending and completing four years of Education courses at a well respected institution I was focused and driven to complete the curriculum and focus on creative lesson planning. Maintaining a GPA of 3.6 in Education courses while participating in four years of collegiate sports really polished my ability to multi-task. The preparation and focus applied in college paired with an immense interest in History has molded me into a life learner as well as teacher. Most of my experience is related t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Ten years ago, at just 14, I knew I had a calling to help others reach full potential in all aspects of their lives, and did something about it. At that time, I implemented a scheduled and drop-in tutoring program through my high school counseling center. This allowed my peers to take advantage of my assistance in all subjects. For the next 4 years I averaged 200 hours each school year tutoring, and continued that passion with summer elementary (K-6th grade) Title One Service-Learning student teaching. Throughout high school and college, I tutored ESL after-school programs. I taught Alternative Middle and High School creative journal-writing classes, and spent time assisting in the college writing center. I taught and modeled skills including hygiene, cooking, money and time management, and decision-making. I volunteered with abused teen boys, probation, and middle school counselin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I don't have a style. I try to go with the flow. What that means is I assess what the students know, what they don't know, and what they need to know and adjust what I teach and how I teach it accordingly. I can go over/review information as many times as students need it. It is important to go back to the old information that was learned and review it, so students keep adding to what they know as they learn new information. If the students know the old information, then I don't review it as much or as long as I would if they were having problems with remembering the old information that was taught. I try to give each student what they need, based on their deficiencies and their questions.
I have been a teacher for ten years. I have been substitute teaching between contract French teaching assignments. I have worked with, taught, and tutored students of different classes, di ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Academic achievement shapes individuals and influences direction and outcomes in life. As a life-long learner, I believe in the power of education. I have earned a bachelors degree and a masters degree from private, liberal arts colleges. Through my diverse studies and report writing, I have gained extensive gramatical and communication skills. As a result of my education, I have been able to help tutor other students in their studies.
Just as we are all unique individuals, learning styles are uniquely individual too. We all process information and learn in different ways. For greatest learning success, teaching can be tailored to individual styles. Depending on the individual learner, styles can range from traditional to more discovery-based approaches. I believe in tailoring tutoring to the learner's unique style to achieve academic success.

More About This Tutor...

This past year I graduated magna cum laude from Carleton College with a Bachelor’s in History and Medieval Studies. I have studied abroad at Oxford University, and in Rome and Romania, and have a lot of experience in writing research reports and essays. As a student of the liberal arts I have studied a wide variety of subjects, from theology to environmental science, from Old English to statistics and am comfortable in almost any subject. During this past academic year I tutored a home schooled child one on one several hours a week in world history and research methodology; I was in effect his sole teacher in the subject and also helped him improve his writing and study skills. For the past four years I have taught chess to children aged six to ten, emphasizing analytical skills.
