I have always loved learning. Reading and writing have been two of my primary hobbies since childhood. Still, when I was in elementary and high school, there were times when I felt that the educational system was lacking. I am not alone in this experience, and I have observed countless students flourish with a level of personal and individual care that is unavailable in a standard classroom environment. As a result of my ardor for both teaching and learning, while earning a master of divinity with an emphasis in counseling, I have spent my evenings tutoring professionally. I have earned certifications in math, English grammar, reading and composition, ACT and SAT test preparation, and organizational study skills. I have had the privilege of working with a large variety of students. I have helped young children learn how to read for the first time, and mentored innumerable high s

Denver Summer Scholars - Lead computer tutor - Taught 3 classes a day with 15 students in each class. I used computer software to tutor students in math and language arts. My students were ESL at Risk students. Tree of Knowledge - I tutored 15 students during the 2011 to 2012 school year in Language Arts and Math. My students increase their pre tutoring scores by a minimum of 25%. My students included at risk and special ed students in first to fifth grade. This was one on one tutoring. I was able to get to know each student and design the teaching method and material to suit each student's need. I designed separate programs for each student. Through my attention and caring attitude towards all of my students I was able to establish excellent rapp

Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood. I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students.

My teaching style morphs in order to suit the needs of the student. Working with so many different students one-on-one has enlightened me to the particularities of learning. Each one of my students learned in a different way. Some were more visual, others more theorem/rule based. I try to hone in on what their strengths are and build from there. I also have them do a half-hour of the assignment as soon as they finish their lesson. It seems to help them retain the information. In 2004, I graduated from the University of Virginia majoring in Psychology and Studio Art. While there I tutored at Miller School (a private 6-12 institution). I worked with two Korean ESL students who especially needed help in reading and composition. Their parents invited me to Korea for five weeks in the summer of 2003 to continue working with them. Upon my return, I continued to help them in their studies u

It is my job as an instructor to act as a facilitator for the students, and to adapt the curriculum so that it is accessible to ALL students. Consequently, I subscribe to an experientialist approach to teaching, in that children need to experience in order to maximize their learning. During my master's program for educational psychology, I realized that I had to teach and work with children who had identified needs. In the middle of completing my Master's, I began teaching Special Education in an inner-city middle school. I was responsible for adapting curriculum to meet the individual needs of students, implementing accommodations and modifications, co-teaching, as well as acting as a case manager. During that time, I was able to act as a change agent by changing the type of services that were provided from pull-out to inclusion. I worked with sixth, seventh, and eighth grades and

My goal is to provide a positive learning experience for children. I believe learning is fun and I want them to have the same feelings. I strongly believe that demonstration followed by hands on learning and positive reinforcement is the most effective. On the other hand, I realize that we are all different and will deviate from my beliefs to accommodate the needs of the child. Watching the progress of a child arouses feelings of excitement and I find tutoring to be an invaluable and rewarding experience. I strongly believe in the value of an education. This is demonstrated through the two bachelor degrees I have received. With degrees in Economics and Nursing, I have developed a strong basis of knowledge in math and science. Then throughout my college career, I have developed grammatical skills by writing research papers and essays. I have been able to help others learn by tutoring chil

My main goal in teaching is to connect personally with the student in a professional manner which enables mutual respect and trust to be built. This kind of teacher-student relationship allows for the best atmosphere in which a student can learn. My first task as a teacher is to find out how the student is motivated, and then to follow through with motivating the student to reach his or her potential (also requiring appropriate levels of achievement). Of course, good communication with the parent and/or classroom teacher who also has goals for the student who is being tutored is imperative.
