Literature Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Fish Haven, ID

I am a retired FBI Agent, with both a Bachelor of Science and a Juris Doctorate. As an Agent, I learned to speak fluent Russian and speak it to this day. Since retirement six years ago I have been tutoring and coaching my son, who is handicapped. He is highly intelligent but learns a little bit differently, so I have worked hard with him to teach him to read, learn math and grammar. He cannot write, so everything he learns is by memory. He is an excellent student and works hard. My work in the FBI has given me excellent writing skills, my grammar is next to perfect, and I read several books a week. I tutored many students in the FBI Academy and in Russian school, so I have experience in tutoring adults as well as children. My teaching style depends upon the student I am tutoring. I totally coach the student in a manor which best befits that student. Since no two students are alik

I love teaching kids. All kids can are different in the way they learn. you need to be able to recognize those kids who are auditory learners, and hands on learners and be able to make a good balance of both so both kids may benefit. I like to set goals for each tutor session weather it be something like learning the alphabet or knowing you first ten multiplication facts. You then need to set one long term goal for that child to reach. this way each day they feel as if they have succeeded and learned something. I hope i can be an educator who can make just a little difference in children's lives. I worked with Special Ed kids with reading, writing, and math. I tutored my Sophomore, Junior, and Senior years of high school. I have most of my certifications in the medical field, but i also graduated High school a semester early and with enough credits to be a sophomore in college. I do pref

I greatly enjoy working as a tutor. While shy by nature, I have been willing to get up front and teach because I am passionate about helping others learn to become better critical thinkers and writers. My goal as a writing teacher has always been to help my students develop the skills necessary to become confident, competent, and creative writers. In a one-on-one situation, I find that my ability to help is greatly increased and I am always thrilled when my students make gains in understanding and ability. I am friendly, positive, and strive to teach the student rather than tell them what to do. I have always loved to read and write, and my love of the written word is what led me to obtain both my BA and MA in British and American Literature. I had the opportunity to begin teaching at the College level when I was in my Master's program and continued teaching College Writing courses to Fr

I love teaching because I myself am an avid learner. I have a passion for the subjects I teach and hope that I can instill this same passion in those I teach. I believe that every student can learn the information taught in class, it's more a matter of finding out how each individual student learns. When information is presented in the right way (for each individual), it can make all the difference. What I find most rewarding is when a student begins to grasp the information and is able to apply it and perform well. I enjoy the challenge of teaching to appeal to many learning styles. I am patient, very approachable, and considerate. I strive to see students succeed. As an undergraduate student at Utah State University, I spent two years working as a Undergraduate Teaching Fellow, a Teacher's Assistant, and a Supplemental Instructor. I taught labs and assisted students with understanding

Teaching is my passion. I find education the most essential components of our society. We must educate the young to create a better future and the old to prduce well rounded citizens who will make positive contributions to our society. It is only through education can we overcome social ills. Education is the key to success. I am a retired secondary educator and have taught the following subjects:Drama, Speech, English, T.V.Broadcasting, Debate, Musical Theater. I have also been an adjunct instructor for Salt Lake Community where I taught courses in Theater, and Public Speaking. At Eagle Gate College I have taught courses in Ethics and Communications. At Utah State University I am teaching courses in Creative Arts, Public Speaking, Interpersonal Communications, and Film.

Becoming a teacher has been the greatest achievement of my life. I am not only able to teach my own students, but I learn along with them on a daily basis. I vary my style of teaching, which includes assessing all learning types, and try to reach all learners. I incorporate technology and every day items to help my students understand that what we read and study is used in the real world. My goal is to continue my education, as I am looking at a second Master's degree, a doctorate in the future, and most likely will become National Board Certified. In Florida, I worked as first, a preschool teacher, and then was given the opportunity to teach at the high school level as a Language Arts instructor. I taught both regular and honors courses for the 9th and 10th grade levels. We moved to Colorado in June and since that time, I have been teaching as a substitute for Douglas, Cherry Creek, and
