I use the Orton- Gilingham multi sensory approach.

I Have worked for the Davis County School district for 12 years. The last few years I have been working intervention for students who are not performing at grade level. I have learned that not all kids can learn the way they are taught in school. My 8 year old is dyslexic. I Have studied the Orton-Gilingham multisensory approach to reading and spelling. I have also learned to engage children in activities that are fun and creative. I will not be doing the same teaching style as there school.
ORTON-Gilingham multi sensory approach. Math without words until the concept is mastered. Using lots of manipulatives including video games, that teach concepts.

My first and most recent experience was working with a young middle-school boy whom I was able to help improve his grades in Algebra from earning 20% on weekly quizzes to 93%. I worked with this client one hour a week for about two months, after that time he was doing well enough on his own and no longer required my services.

My comments on tutoring Psychology : I did take a psychology course in my senior year of High School. We went over the basic Freudian principles as well as others.

Throughout high school, I had trouble trying to figure out what I wanted to do when I graduated. I took many classes that ranged from Weight Training to Biology. I took many Art classes in which I excelled at. I then took some Computer Technology classes and I loved it. So I figured I would put the two together and took Graphic Design classes. I loved it. I am very competent in using all sorts of Graphic Design programs. I got my first guitar around 8 years ago and just picked it up and learned it. I have been learning ever since. I personally, have taught many people the basics of guitar and gave them the tools to excel in music.

I was in the top 10% of my class at an elite college preparatory school and earned a BA in Economics from the University of Chicago. This has exposed me to great teachers and a variety of different teaching styles. I studied cello and piano formally for 7 and 10 years, respectively, and taught cello for 2 years. In high school I taught Adult English-as-a-Second Language classes for 2 years. I've also taught skiing and guided young children in after school art and literature programs for several years. My diverse education and experiences have led to my deep understanding of art, literature, history, math, science, and business. I have written numerous essays on art and literature, research papers, lab reports, and analytical reports.
My rigorous education has given me substantial insight into the "total package" needed to learn and succeed at a high level. The ability to lea ... read more

I graduated from the University of Kansas and am currently attending pharmacy school in Denver. I was an undergraduate teaching assistant for Gen Chem II during the spring 2010 semester. I taught two lab sections and held weekly office hours to help students with homework assignments. I participated in a research study for the psychology department evaluating intragroup status and social presence in online fan groups. I spent a few years working as a resident assistant/director at one of the off-campus dorms and co-founded a recycling partnership for the Fall 2007 semester between The Home Depot and The Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence. Proceeds from the recycled materials collected at the dorm were donated to the Boys & Girls Club.
I am pretty comfortable in most subjects. I am interested in tutoring because I think I can relate well to students of all ages and I think I can explain ... read more

I have a very interactive personality. I love to get kids involved in their subjects outside of the textbook. I have seen from years of experience that students do better when the can find real life applications of material in everyday life then just to finish an assignment. I know that there are many different learning styles and no one particular way can be right for every child. I am flexible and want to help children accomplish their learning objectives with excitement and desire to learn more.
I have had 15 yrs experiences working with kids age 2-18 in different areas from reading, math, afterschool programs, special needs and general assistance. I completed my Masters in Education at Arizona State University and have worked in two different non-profits specializing in at risk youth completing high school. I have tutored in English, math, reading, and science in the elementary ... read more

My experience teaching English has taught me that everyone has the ability to learn. The challenge is to identify the needs and style of the learner and adapt to them. I had students who were mostly visual learners and needed everything written down or printed on handouts; I had students who were mainly auditory learners and needed to have everything said to them, sometimes two or even three times in different ways. Some of my students wanted to be able to speak with their boss or participate in meetings held in English; others needed to write or proofread documents in English. My main goal in teaching is to figure out what my students want and need and help them achieve their goals. Teaching English was a very learner-centered approach, with the students fully engaged and participating throughout the lesson. I think that tutoring should be the same way, with the focus on how the s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my four years at Case Western Reserve University, I became aware of the needs of the city schools in the area and worked to help improve the situations in the schools. I worked with AmericaREADS, OhioREADS and other similar programs to help tutor children who were not able to get the individual attention they needed in the classroom. Because of my background in engineering, I am excellent in math and science but I also enjoy helping in reading, writing, and assisting the children in enhancing their studying skills.
I enjoy working with children of most ages although I worked mainly with K, first, fourth and high school levels during my four years of experience. I believe everyone has the ability to reach their greatest potential with appropriate help and that sometimes extra assistance can be the difference between success and failure. I use rewards to help children feel ... read more

My teaching style varies depending on the type of students I am teaching to because I believe that each student has a particular learning style that they find easier. I think that it is important to find the types of learning that each student finds easiest to understand, and tailor the course so that it works well with their particular learning abilities. This can easily be done in a classroom setting as well as an individual basis. In either case, while I am teaching I think that it is important to understand the topic we are on before moving to the next one. Slowing down to completely grasp each idea helps students to gain confidence in their learning ability, and actually helps the classroom or individual to progress much faster overall. Giving students a hope for their future ability to learn is one of the best things I can do for them.
In preparation for college, I knew that ... read more

My educational background is in physics and mechanical engineering with minors in math and astronomy. After college, I've aimed towards obtaining a secondary math teacher license. Currently enrolled in the Alternative Routes to Licensure in SLC, I have taken education classes and gained 3-years experience teaching pre-algebra and 4th grade math and preschool. I have found that after teaching multiple grades, I want to focus on teaching math at a higher level. I have 6 years of tutoring experience both independent work and with ClubZ! Tutoring. I have tutored in Maine and SLC at the high school and college level in math, as well as at the high school level in biology, physics, and chemistry.
As a teacher, I prefer a student-directed teaching style over a teacher-directed learning style in the classroom. I believe that setting up lessons where the students develop concepts and ... read more

As a 5th grade bilingual teacher, I have a strong commitment to each of my students. I tutor students outside of classroom time in order to ensure that they are successful. I have experience tutoring students in mathematics and reading. My graduate work consisted of an MA in teaching with an emphasis on research. I am also well versed in math, science, history, reading, and writing, and I earned a certificate of excellence for my elementary content knowledge on the Praxis test.
I love teaching children and finding ways of making learning come alive for them. I am always looking for creative ways to help students connect with what they are learning. For example, as a summative project in our unit on circuit electricity, my students built small, electric go-karts. Additionally, I am firmly committed to establishing a strong foundation of academic knowledge for my students. I ... read more

I love kids - they are often sweet, funny, easily impressed and are a great audience. I know that it is possible to make learning fun through a close, interactive relationship with a student - showing and guiding them through your own discovery of the subject. There have been times when I could feel one of my students learning; it is always a smile-provoking moment and I treasure every one.
I have a Master of Arts degree in English from Utah State University and have taught EFL overseas and within the US. Recently (from 07-08), I worked as a Math Tutor for challenged fifth graders and also for Kindergarteners part-time at Lincoln Elementary in Layton while my son was in pre-school. I am competent in elementary math and sincerely enjoy helping others to find the inherent beauty of numbers and what they can do.
