More About This Tutor...

Due to my background in early childhood, I teach using hands-on manipulative based strategies.
Before I began my professional teaching career, I worked for the Read Across America program helping young learners gain an appreciation for reading. I mentored elementary students who were labeled at risk due to low performance in reading. In 2001, I began teaching pre-k in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In 2005, I relocated to Houston and began teaching kindergarten in Ft. Bend ISD. I taught 4th grade Math and Science for 2 years. Currently, I work as a 2nd grade ESL inclusion teacher. I have experience teaching students identified under the special education umbrella- autistic, asperger's Syndrome, and various developmental delays. I have successfully tutored students with ADD, ADHD, and other conditions that make it difficult for them to be 100% successful with classroom instruction o ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently attending SNHU Online for my Sports Management Degree. I have experience in business as well, as I started out at Devry University Online for a Business Management Degree. I made the switch to Sports Management, but not before I received over a full academic year of experience and learning in BMA. I have been working with numbers my entire working life thus far, as well as in school. I have been using a computer and keyboard daily for over 15 years for school, work and various activities. I type over 90 words a minute with a high level of accuracy and polished grammar.
I believe that a big part of teaching effectively involves being patient. Learning should be fulfilling and fun, rather than overbearing and stressful.

We learn from our own mistakes.

I encourage my students to be the core of teaching by stimulating them to engage in discussions about certain topics of their liking. Also, I encourage them express themselves even though they might make mistakes. I help them find why is it a mistake and how to correct them.
I taught Arabic as a second language in Plainfield Indiana to students of different ages and of both sexes. I taught all language skills with some concentration on reading skills and conversation. The size of the class was relatively big as I had about 40 students. I encouraged students to express their ideas in the form of written sentences and the I would go over what they wrote in order to correct their sentences by showing the how to construct a sound Arabic sentences.

More About This Tutor...

I began tutoring people when I was in the eigth grade. I decided I wanted to help out at the school across the street from my middle school in Colorado. I enrolled in a class that allowed us to go and assist the teachers and help the students. I fell in love with kids then for sure. I already knew I liked them because I started babysitting when I was 11 and couldn't stop! Then in ninth grade, a neighbor failed kindergarten and asked if I would starting coming over several days a week to help him understand what was being taught. Needless to say, he made it to the first grade! I now have a 17 year old sister who is constantly asking for my assistance in her homework and it is with great pleasure that I assist her.
I have a background in Psychology, so I am extremely intuitive with what a person needs regarding their learning style. I am able to adapt my teaching style to their needs ... read more

At LSU and throughout my years of teaching, I was provided with numerous opportunities to work with children in many different educational settings.  Not only have I been exposed to different grade levels but I have also taught gifted as well as special education students.  Working with these children allowed me to understand the whole child and taught me the importance of individual needs of each student in an educational setting, regardless of placement
I believe that I can offer a motivational, technological, organized teacher with the goal of enriching young minds to be well educated and well rounded students. My focus will not only be on my students' educational needs but also on their self development fostering their individual growth. I am a firm believer that all children can learn when provided with the toolls necessary and an enriching environment. I pride myself in letti ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My original degree was in English with a minor in Spanish. I received my teaching certification in 1979 in Secondary English/Spanish. I taught adult ESL part time for 2 years in the evenings. After a taste in this field, I began teaching in ESL and have taught 9 years in public schools. With one school district I also had a class helping students with the English part of the TAAS test. During the rest of my career I taught Spanish which was also 9 years.
I believe the first thing you need to do is to find out what the student needs help with. At times I have used music, poetry, or computer programs to get the students attention. Repetition is very helpful and note cards are good for memorization. Taking notes is a good way for the student to stay focused. A little comedy helps too to help students to remember. I enjoy helping students, adult or younger, feel the success of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling.
I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal ... read more

I spent one year as a Headstart teacher. I have several years of substitute teaching experience working with different subjects and grades. I was a tutor throughout college. I just began tutoring again this year for CARE. I have recently tutored chemistry & biology.
I love working with kids. I try to make things as simple as I can in hopes that the student will understand it. I think it is important to praise kids ( ex. good job) to boost their self esteem. It helps motive them to strive harder . My goal is to help students to excel in academics through my expertise so that they can build a solid foundation upon the knowledge that I have shared with them.
