I prefer to work with small groups of students or individuals as it is easier to meet each student's needs. I am very concise and methodical, but am also sensitive enough to pace myself according to the student's needs. Of course, experience is the best teacher, so I usually review the points that the student has questions on, provide an example of the principles in action, and then help the student work through some problems until he or she understands satisfactorily. As such, I have found that I am very good at teaching math and math-based science as well as languages. While studying Physics at Iowa State University, I first discovered my love for teaching and tutoring and have been doing it almost continuously since then. I worked for the ISU Academic Success Center helping groups of 1-4 students learn calculus and calculus-based physics for 3 semesters. They always left my sessi

I enjoy working with young people and making an impact on their academic success. I don't know if I have a particular teaching style, but I believe that education is not a "one size fits all" proposition and good educators must adapt their style to fit the needs of their student which I strive for every time I meet a new student. Although I do not have a degree in Education, I have years of experience as a teaching assistant, teacher, tutor and curriculum designer. My experience mostly focuses on helping students improve their writing skills, but I also work with students with their reading comprehension since they go hand in hand. I have taught composition at the community college level which enables me to help students with papers at all levels from basic exposition to research methodology and citation format.

I have earned two degrees, a master's in public health, and a bachelor's in health sciences, with an emphasis in school and community health. I have worked in research the past ten years, developing teams and training them to fruition. Additionally, I have served on a reading group in an under-privileged community, mentoring and tutoring elementary youth with their school work and life challenges. I am a team builder and have worked with youth for the past 15 years, teaching them how to get along and function successfully within a team environment. This experience has provided me with tools that I use to entice students with various ways to learn. It has been very useful to use reality to capture interest. Basic education is the key to a successful life. We know that college is not for everyone however, we know that in order to be a successful contributor in society one must have t

I am a strong believer in communicating with students according to their own developmental capabilities and learning style. I strive to patiently discover these unique aspects of each of my students and find creative ways of meeting their needs. My goal is that students will not only improve their understanding of a particular subject, but that they will also improve their own study skills and problem-solving abilities. I believe it is important to help students learn to manage their time and homework, which can feel overwhelming to a student, and I often help them work out a weekly schedule with manageable amounts of work. I enjoy helping students connect what they are studying to practical aspects of their own life or the world around them, as I find this helps increase their interest and enjoyment in what they are learning.

An understanding of the student and his/her background, strengths and weaknesses, and motivation is key to successful learning. This student-centered approach has gained favor in recent years, and using this approach in an interactive way allows the student to develop critical-thinking skills at an optimal pace. As a graduate student at the University of Chicago, I was responsible for leading introductory core Biology labs, which covered an array of concepts in biology, statistics, computer usage, and experimental design. Because lab reports were frequent requirements, I also was able to improve skills as a writing tutor I had already developed as a writing tutor (paid student position) in the Writing Lab at Towson University. I also have taught a remedial study- and life-skills course for students on Academic Probation at the University of Arizona. Finally, in my capacity as Academic Ad

I find it very rewarding to be a part of a childs education. I have an enormous amount of patience and a desire to see individuals do well and help them reach their goals and exceed their expectations. I have been working as a Substitute Teacher for the past four years and have held quite a few long term assignments at the request of several licensed educators. I am currrently working as a private tutor for two sixth graders who attend an online acedemy and are working on extra credit assignments to elevate their grades for the end of the acedemic year. I love children and enjoy seeing their faces light up when something "clicks". I believe in being both consistent and flexible because all children want to know that your are going to be there for them and no child learns the same way. I am extremely comfortable around children of all age groups and especially like teaching children wi

Over the course of my twenty-three years I have received an international education by way of inter-continental travel and attendance to a world-class university. I have spent much time in the volunteer and non-profit sectors, both donating my time to various kinds of community aid as well as researching aspects of those communities. Because of the broad spectrum of my educational experience, I have spent much time in various areas of study including: natural & Chinese medicine, anatomy, anthropology, sociology, psychology, dance, writing, photography and studio art. I have tutored students in English, writing, mathematics, sciences, dance and photography. Having taught college English in rural China, I have found that I am extremely adaptable in my teaching style.

One of my many passions in life is working with kids, specifically tutoring them. I have found that it is easier to tutor a student when they know that they are surrounded by positivity. With this I am referring to the feeling of comfort and knowing that it's ok to be wrong. I notice more confidence in my students when I establish a friendship with them. In addition to this, letting my students know that even at different ages, we can still relate to one another. I love incorporating visual images, tangible objects, color, laughter, and fun in my tutoring sessions. I strongly believe that repetition is important when learning something new. I have found that every students learning style is different and I have been able to easily adjust to this. Working as a tutor has given me the opportunity to demonstrate great leadership among my peers and students while creating a positive environme

My forte is science and math, which are often students' least favorite subjects, due to earlier difficulty. A solid basic understanding of these subjects is critical to being an independent, engaged adult; and it's just plain cool to understand how the world works! I enjoy removing the fear and guiding the students to increase their competence and self-confidence. I am funny, enthusiastic and know how to use the student's background as a "hook" to pull them into the subject. I have a BA in Psychology, MS in Zoology and BS in Computer Science. I have lifetime Arizona Community College certification in psychology, biology, ecology and remedial math. My experience with special populations includes: three years full-time on the Navajo Reservation; three years part-time at the SALT Center at the University of Arizona working with learning disabled students; and a hands-on nature camp for d
