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 styles which is very effective. Teacher-centered, where the teacher is expert and authority in presenting information works well with students who need little direction from the instructor, and/or those who accept responsibility for their own learning. While in other situations, I will take a learner-centered approach thus viewing my role as more of a facilitator of student learning. 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

My method is to reach students exactly where there at and use methods that would stimulate all types of learners . Once I was teaching a group of sixth graders who would be entering Algebra soon. I gave them a true life math example. Our equasion; a party with the number of students, quantity of different items and costs. When we devided the items their costs with the number of students we came up with how much each student had to pitch in. In this example I had some items that were to be used and they were able to touch them. I also told them very clearly what was going on while I was writing it all down. This stimulated many different learning types My teaching experience began at a Riverside County Probation Facility for Wards of the court in Banning California. I began there as a Building Maintainance Mechanic and worked my way up to a vocational education teacher. After that I work

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.

Through the process of entering and attending dental school I attained a great knowledge of the sciences and chemistry subjects. I have also learned vast organizational skills, which I would like to pass on. I have also written many research papers based on science subjects. I enjoy tutoring because I am able to pass on the knowledge that I have learned over the years. This knowledge can help academic and self confidence problems linked the certain subjects. The key to successful tutoring is to link the "trouble course" to feelings of enjoyment. The path to linking the course depends on student personality and interests. The student will experience more motivation and interest once the subject is properly associated to enjoyment. This starts the foundation for increased learning and a way to bypass the “learning block”. Other keys involve patients and proper explanation of the subject, w

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, creating a scrapbook for a main character and presenting it, etc. I held high standards for my students but always provided the tools for them to achieve those standards. 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, an

I have a quite versatile and adaptive teaching style. I try to tailor my approach to the strengths and specific needs of my students. I have taught a few different subjects including Reading, Math, Grammar and English in a variety of different grade levels. I am a recent graduate of Arizona State University. I plan to become a high school teacher. I have experience tutoring and mentoring high school and elementary students. I was a mentor in high school and a National Honor Society tutor for 3 years. I also tutored elementary school students for a semester (part of America Reads and Service Learning). I also worked with Head Start while in Key Club during high school.

Since I was first a high school graduate, I have been fascinated with education and helping young people. Whether it was volunteering as a coach, working as a resident's assistant, giving tours on campus, working at summer camps, or working with students with disabilities I have supplemented my collegiate career with teaching experience. This was most evident by the 19-month teaching/tutoring mission which I went on for my church. I love teaching and I intend to do so for my entire life! My core teaching ideals come from the motto, "a child needs love most when he least deserves it". In our society, too many people look for reasons to help others. For me, working with children is my duty to them. It is my duty to understand that each child is different and therefore needs differentiated instruction. As I strive to focus on positive reenforcement with my students, I give them oppor

I am currently a substitute teacher specializing in math, science, history, English, and German with the company, 'Substitute Teachers Unlimited,' which employs me throughout the greater Phoenix area. I am also a professional actor, voiceover artist, actor/teacher, and yoga instructor! In high school, I took a great deal of Honors and AP classes, including assorted math classes, AP-German, AP-American Politics and Government, and AP-World Literature. I received my BFA in dramatic performance from the University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music, and I continued my more academic studies with a focus in computer science, taking such classes as physics, Statistics, HTML, C, and C++. Since 2000, I have worked with all age groups as an actor, teacher, and as a substitute teacher here in the valley, I have taught elementary, middle school, and high school students. I am very patie

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 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.

Besides family, faith, and good health, there is nothing I value more than my education. As a graduate of the University of Notre Dame, I have earned a bachelor degree in Science-Business. This new field incorporates the work of a Biology major with the fundamental requirements of a Business major. I am now in the process of applying to dental school, thus have extensive experience with essays and standardized tests. Throughout my academic career I have meticulously planned, prepared, and executed a plan for success. As a life long athlete, I understand the importance of a team. Parents, tutors, and children must work together to succeed. I also realize the importance of strategy; each team has a different method to achieve their goal. Be it verbal, visual, audial, physical, there are multitudes of different ways to have success inside and outside of the classroom. My personal success wo

I graduated with my Master's in Chemical Engineering in 1985 and have used that experience and my life experience to excel at the tutoring that I have done over the last 15+ years. I have tutored all levels of mathematics, high school and college Chemistry and SAT/ACT preparation and study. My education has been invaluable to my ability to help students excel. I am relaxed, calm, and patient when tutoring. I use graphical, verbal and/or written methods dependent on the skill set and approach that is best for each student. I believe that every student has an innate ability to learn. It is the tutor's job to find out the approach that will yield the best results with each individual student.

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 processes information and adapt my lesson to accommodate them. Learning can be both fun and serious, as long as it is productive. 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 com

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 with special needs. My patience and fun loving attitude have served me well as a Substitute Teacher and I believe in my heart that I have made a difference in the lives of the kids I have had the priviledge of teaching. Each one, Teach one. 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
