My first teaching experience was in high school teaching at after school programs about basic economic principles that may apply to kids. That was my first time understanding that I have potential to assist others in grasping topics. In my college career, I found myself teaching people everything from music to proper uses of tense/grammar. It was there that i learned that you really only learn a small fraction of what you need to help you in life in the classroom. The rest must be learned on your own or with some one-on-one counseling. I know that any information can possibly be simplified and made clearer with a little time and attention to towards looking at the bigger picture or basic concept. The roles of the teacher and student are one in the same. I go into teaching knowing that I am not the end all shepherd of information but I am going to give all I can at being as clear, concise

My experience comes from study groups and my own time as a student. Every student is an individual with different strengths and styles of learning. I believe building on the students strengths and adapting material to be presented to students to best match their leaning styles allows for the most success.

I have taught everything from infant/toddlers to the elderly. I have devoted my life to children and education. I spent alot of my time working in daycare settings with the before and after school programs and as a substitute teacher. I have taught handicaped children and gifted children. I am a motivated individual. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, I can be the tool that helps them find the key to unlock the success that they hold within. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. Children learn best through discovery and from experiences. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the opportunity. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a differe

My teaching experience actually extends back to high school where not only did I tutor fellow students in math and chemistry but I also taught swim lessons as my part time job. More recently I tutored students in the chemistry study center at the University of Washington. Furthermore, anyone who attends a University knows that being a successful active learner involves studying in groups where you teach others and others teach you. As a teacher or tutor it is very important to realize that everybody learns differently. Because of this you have to strive to find the way your student learns and utilize creative ways to make sure the student understands what you are teaching to them. In my experience I have used pictures, words, books, varying explanations, and multiple examples to teach.

My teaching style is to captivate the student's interest with hands on activities that demonstrate academic concepts. After the student understands the concrete real life connection, then we move into the abstract representation of the same concept in print. Each student has strengths and weaknesses that I try to understand and adapt lessons to their unique method of understanding. I also find it effective to teach students with familiar vocabulary that they already understand and then build new ideas upon their previous knowledge. I find it best to communicate with other educators in each child's life to compliment the focus of other studies using the same ideas, but seeing them in different ways. I am a professional teacher, tutor, and educational assistant for more than twenty five years of experience in international schools, public and private U.S. schools. I have teaching certif

Throughout my recent graduate courses in social work, I've remained active in my teaching and feel the better able I am to listen and understand, the more prepared I am to teach. I believe learning to be a joyful experience and am not only patient in the moments where a concept is yet to be grasped, but happy to meet the challenge and find a new way to express an idea or create a new opportunity for a child to have that "aha!" moment. Above all else, I am flexible and understand that there is no single way to learn. I will adapt as necessary, but remain consistent in my expectations, always believing that with support, all children can succeed. I am trained and experienced in individual, small-group, and classroom instruction and curriculum design in a variety of settings with youth in kindergarten through college. I have a strong background in integrated curricula and project-based/

I integrate as many subjects as possible and seek to provide the missing schema, background experience and knowledge, that is critical to learning to a true state of understanding and mastery. Every subject is interesting to a child who can understand it and apply it. Through an understanding of social styles, learning styles,multiple intelligences and the best of brain-based research, I provide that experience to every student. My last class was a self-contained 6th grade, with a 34% ELL and 14% special education population. My class average reading level rose from 4.6 to 7.1. Of all the students in the school who surpassed the required State testing and higher District goals in both reading and math, 75% came from my class, as did the winners of the school's essay contest, spelling bee and geography competition. My first career was in medicine where I gave direct care, tau

I am the son of two teachers. I was raised around teaching and it is simply in my blood. I love the teaching in the classroom, I love teaching individual students, I love teaching. Not only do I have a passion to teach, I also have the knowledge and the ability to do so and to make it relevant. I find that students learn better when they see how the material relates to their lives. They want to know why it matters. I strive to show students the reasons for learning things and at the same time I teach the material. I believe that if you can show a student how the material is relevant to them, they can not help but be interested and thus excel. I have worked with students of all ages in a variety of scenarios, but my most recent experience is teaching as an adjunct professor at Eastern Washington University. My course was "History 110: The American Experience." I had 52 students and we met

I started teaching English-Language Arts & U.S. History in central California, where I taught 8th graders for two years. Then I moved to South Korea, where I taught ESL for one year. After that amazing experience, I moved to South Lake Tahoe and taught English to 7th & 8th graders. While teaching, I also tutored after-school programs for kids that ranged from 2nd grade to high school. I have tutored in the subjects of reading, writing, life science, elem. and middle school math, and Spanish. Currently, I am tutoring two sets of kids in elementary subjects, with an emphasis on reading comprehension, writing essays, building vocabulary, and working on math skills. I am also teaching the students Spanish. Teaching is my passion and I can't imagine doing anything else. I love my students and they love me because I provide hands-on, kinesthetic, and rememorable lessons. My patience and unders

When I was a kid I used to ask questions about things. My questions were usually of the natural sciences bent. I was eight. As an adult, knowing I was going to have a daughter, I discovered that I needed to be respected in the world for my knowledge so I could have a career that could support my daughter. I became a great student. After a while I found that it wasn’t just chemistry that I loved. It was TEACHING chemistry that I loved. It was sharing the knowledge and sharing the discovery. I spent fifteen years going to community college and Eastern Washington University. I earned my Associates in chemistry and my BAE in chemistry. I have tutored in chemistry, math and Turkish language. Children and adults learn in different ways. Visual, auditory, kinesthetic are three ways that people can learn, I happen to be mostly kinesthetic. I alter how I teach depending on what my stu

My approach to tutoring in most cases is to help students find answers themselves through questioning and examples rather than by giving direct instruction, which I reserve for students who are struggling with course content rather than understanding. I believe that all students have the capacity to learn and that many undermine themselves by not having faith in their own abilities. The experience of mastering content and understanding can help a student not only with the subject matter at hand, but also with their future studies. I have taught as a program director, a school volunteer, and a community college instructor. While the majority of my experience has been with high school students, I have also worked with elementary and middle school students, college undergraduates and medical students. I have also provided continuing education for high school and middle school science teac

My master's thesis was on auditory learning and the Theory of Multiple Intelligences. I believe every person can capitalize in learning if they know what type of learner they are. I believe in finding out what types of learning styles work best for an individual and developing strategies to enhance that persons learning potential through use of these strategies. I work on building self image and self esteem as well as academic advancement. As a retired Army Officer, I spent my military career coaching, teaching, and mentoring young adults. My profession was military logistics; my passion is education and teaching. I earned a bachelor's degree in Foreign Language and Literature (focus: French and German) and a master's degree in Adult Education. Both enhanced my professional skills and afforded me the opportunity to teach world wide and at the Army Logistics Management College in For
