More About This Tutor...

In 1999-2000, I provided highly individualized, one-on-one instruction in the client's homes while working with a local tutoring company. I am an experienced educator and state certified instructor with impeccable credentials and a heartfelt enthusiasm for teaching. More recently, I have tutored adults participating in an Adult Literacy Program. I assisted them in their GED preparation in Math and helped them set and reach their short-term educational goals. More recently, I worked with incarcerated individuals preparing them for the GED test, improving their testing skills, and promoting a positive environment for learning. I am actively tutoring students in Pre-Algebra on a weekly basis.
Although instructors/tutors have a preferred teaching style, I will often mix in some elements of other styles. If I wish to take a more open approach to my teaching, I include a blend of various ... read more

I have spent most of my career working with children who were unsuccessful in a traditional classroom. Discouraged and failing, many of my students had no recent memory of being successful. By showing them that they were capable learners, they regained their confidence and motivation. I used simple structured lessons to explain methods and concepts. I emphasized the relevance and meaning of all work, and allowed time for inquiry and discovery. Students were assessed only after thorough preparation. Strengths were emphasized; difficulties were embraced as a challenge. By creating opportunities for success, my students were willing to work through their struggles.
I have spent my 13 years as an educator in a variety of capacities. I spent four years as a tutor for an autistic child while I was in school. After receiving my bachelor’s degree in education, I worked for three ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My love for teaching is inclusive of all learners of all ages. Given that personal motivation is the key to true learning, I consistently strive to seek out and direct my student's interests through thoughtful questions and discussion. All the while I try to tailor my student's interests to meet the needs of their required course work. My questions can be described as both creative and thought-provoking. I never sacrifice intrinsic learning for the ease of 'busy work.' I always strive for simplicity and straight-forwardness in my instruction. I know at some level everyone has a personal desire to learn. I am most knowledgeable in earth/space science, basic mathmatics, and social siences.
From the start of my professional career I have been drawn to the education and edification of others, in particular the youth. I feel I have an intrinsic ability to understand them and motiv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always enjoyed studying science, especially Biology. I obtained my Bachelors of Science in Molecular and Cellular Biology in 2001. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored many colleagues in various subjects. I also precepted an upper division Plant Genetics course during my junior year. I assisted the Teaching Assistant with experimental set-ups and held office hours so I could meet with students to go over course material in preparation for exams. I obtained my PhD in Pharmacology and Cancer Biology in 2008. During my graduate studies, I mentored four graduate students and two undergraduates during their tenure in our laboratory. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I mentored a community college biotechnology student. She had decided to pursue her BS in Molecular and Celllular Biology at the University of Arizona. I would like to continue tutoring students as I enjoy t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As part of my lifelong love of learning and teaching, I began tutoring when I was just fourteen years old. While in high school, I usually tutored math (mostly algebra, geometry, and trigonometry) and general science. Once I moved to college, I began to work with middle school as well as high school students again in mostly math and science. However, I have a BA in politics and history; therefore I am extremely confident in many liberal arts subjects. I have also earned an MBA which helped to hone my grammatical and communication skills. I am currently an on-call teacher for two local school districts. I teach all levels, all subjects.
I love to teach. I have experience with 5-50 years old and, if pressed, could not name a favorite group. I believe that everyone can learn; some of us just process information in different ways. As a tutor it is my job to discover how a student proc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated with a bachelors degree in Elementary Education in 2008 from the University of Missouri with honors. My student teaching was a year long and I spent time in numerous grade levels which gave me a superior understanding to the varieties of content in each grave level. Since earning my degree I have taught fifth grade for three years and this upcoming year I will be teaching third grade.
I have had the desire to teach children from a young age when I would play school with my younger sisters. I believe in teaching students the curriculum in an interactive manner. When I teach, I combine hands-on materials, technology, and real-life experiences into an engaging lesson. I want my students to be challenged and feel proud and surprised of themselves once they have reached that final outcome. Not only do I enjoy teaching the grade level content but I also enjoy being a role mo ... read more

As an experienced educator I have had the pleasure working with children in grades Kindergarten through 8th grade. I have a Bachelor’s degree in elementary education and a Masters degree in Physical Education from Arizona State University. The core courses for these degrees included work in English, history, math and science. General education courses included work in educational psychology, child development and educational philosophy. The specialized courses included work in understanding children's physical development and how they learn motor skills, scientific aspects of physical fitness and sports, as well as effective teaching techniques and progressions for a variety of lifetime sports and fitness activities.
The main point of teaching is not only for the teacher to have a good time, but also for the student. If both teacher and student can enjoy each other’s company the p ... read more

I am of the opintion that all students can learn. If my method of teaching is not working, I will pursue all methods available by communicating with my peers for ideas. My students learn my expectations early on ,then I am their facilitator. I prefer discovery learning and implement hands-on learning whenever possible.
In addition to my undergraduate degree, I have many graduate credits in education including elementary math,science and reading. I have taught full time in an elementary classroom for 14 years and substitute taught for almost as many. My experiences include tutoring at the elementary and high school level.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergrad I attended Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois, a school well-known for its academic excellence, where I studied Christian Education under a group of highly talented professors. While this degree was not a typical teaching degree, it incorporated a significant amount of educational theory, communication skills, and developmental psychology which I have used as a mentor, Sunday school teacher, and tutor. I then attended Fuller Theological Seminary as a master’s student where I studied theology and youth ministry. This program allowed me to further study the developmental issues connected with adolescents, as well as increase my writing and critical thinking skills through the study of theology, philosophy, and history. I have worked with middle school and high school students in a church setting for 9 years. I began tutoring last year, working with elementary and Jr. ... read more

Am I allowed to quote the above example? I am just kidding but for the most part I do agree with all of those things. I am apatient and easy going person who is super-excited to to see students connect their learning with experience. I believe people in general learn best through play and experiencing things hand to hand. I like to involve as many senses as possible when learning and using past experience to build on for present/future learning. Letting students know specific goals and expectations is a very important part of learning. I love working with students of all ages and learning capabilities.
I graduated from Arizona State University East. It is a more technical school when it comes to elementary education. As a student I was required to do more service hours than at the main campus. I then student taught in Mesa Arizona followed by teaching 3rd grade in Mesa as well. I t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After earning my bachelor's degree in History and Political Science, I went on to complete the teacher's certification program through the University of Phoenix. I began teaching middle school Language Arts, Reading, Writing, and Social Studies at a small private school in Tucson, AZ in 2001. I have worked with students at various levels in all subject areas both as a teacher and as a tutor.
I love children and believe that every child can learn. In my classroom, I provided a multitude of diverse learning experiences for my students - from experimentation to cooperative learning. I support the multiple intelligences theory and always attempted to accommodate students' various learning needs. For example, when finishing a novel, students were given options for completing a book project: traditional book report, building a model of a favorite scene and presenting it to the class ... read more
