Psychology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Eastview, KY

Subjects: General Psychology, Research Credentials: Bachelor's of Science in Psychology The key to learning any skill is: Practice. I try to focus on that in my tutoring. In languages this will be: practice conversations, practice worksheets from a textbook, and relating to real life concepts. It is just as important in my other fields (especially dance!). I use these examples to measure understanding so that we can work together to get further. Hello! I am a recent college graduate seeking my first full-time position in my field. With a lot of free time on my hands, I thought I would offer tutoring lessons for some of my favorite and most experienced subjects. First: I love languages! Japanese is my most skilled language (besides English), with Italian following behind. I would love to help teach others the basics of these languages. I encourage everyone to give new languages a try

I have taken many courses over an extended period of time. In 2002 I entered the Surgical Technology program at Jefferson Technical College; I managed a 4.00 and missed only a couple of days. During the many testing phases of the program I stayed and helped get other students through the program, I was commended on my drive and determination to help other students, all while maintaining my grade average. I pulled down some of the highest scores in the programs history. This didn't go unnoticed, as shortly after graduation I was asked by the Dean of Allied Health and Surgical Technology Program Coordinator to come back and teach. I taught all of the prerequisite core classes, Anatomy and Physiology, Microbiology, Human Growth and Development and Medical Terminology. My consecutive years where involved in the Surgical Technology program as a Clinical Coordinator and Didactic instructor. I

I like to ask questions and get the student involved. I like to get the student engaged as much as possible. I would like to observe the method in which the student obtains the most information and expound on that variable, triggering many senses for better memorization. My teaching style would consist of trying to get the student to understand what they are studying which is considerably better than just simple short term memorization. I earned a well rounded education from Western Kentucky University with a strong emphasis in math / Engineering. Since College I have pursued the Surveying field. I have recently obtained the status of Professional Land Surveyor with the State of Kentucky. I have taught young graduates surveying practices in relation to the Engineering field while in management positions. I would be very excited about teaching children.

Every student, no matter race, religion, gender, age, social status, political leanings, or sexual preference, deserves equality in education. No conduct jeopardizing equality will be tolerated in a didactic or practicum setting. A successful classroom depends on the success of three relationships: the instructor must respect the student, the student must respect the instructor, and students must respect one another. Failure concerning any of these relationships results in failure in the classroom. The importance of the idea of primacy learning will be upheld in every teaching scenario. Students that are learning a new skill must be taught correctly the first time, as primacy in teaching is paramount to the student’s success. Student must know and clearly understand what is expected of them in a course for confidence and rapport to be attained in their relationship to the instructor. In

I have been a playwright for the last ten years, which is why I chose to get my BA in writing. Being involved in extensive reading and writing programs in and out of school has given me a deep appreciation for words. Over the course of my education, I was fortunate enough to tutor several young students struggling with reading and writing, as well as weekly creative writing workshops with elementary students. The satisfaction that comes from working with a student, one on one, who is struggling, and seeing them change from angry and insecure to confident and proud is immense. I haven't found it anywhere else. As a teacher, my initial goal is to discover how to facilitate the individual learning styles of my students. I strive to instill a confidence that will lead to a willing and open mind conducive to further learning.

I have a very diverse background range from English to science. My jobs require me to understand complex topics so that I can convert them into concepts that are understandable by lay audiences. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Humanities. I am finishing my Master of Science in Entomology at the University of Nebraska. My unconventional background is what fuels my desire to learn about science. I have a solid understanding of grammar as evident by the more than 300 trade letters, papers, and articles I have authored in my career. I have tutored numerous people in mathematics, biology, and science writing and journalism. That is my way of paying back all those people who taught me what I know today.

My experience as a tutor started when I was in high school teaching English as a second language to French and Creole speaking students. I also tutored freshman students on courses related to my major when I was in college. In recent years, I have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students in English, French, Creole, sciences, mathematics, and religious studies. I am passionate about tutoring because of my passion on seeing every student be given the opportunity to excel to their full potential. Tutoring offered the unique opportunity of finding what works best for each student when it comes to studying a specific subject. Every student learns differently and as a tutor my first goal has always been to help the student find what his or her strengths are and used them to achieve his or her goals. I love tutoring young children, teenagers, and adults. Since the ex
