A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies, providing me with a well-rounded college education. In addition to that, I am currently seeking a Masters degree in Education. At the end of this program, I will hold a teaching license. I love learning and encouraging others to strive to do their best. I have worked with all age groups (elementary through college age students), mentoring and teaching them along the way. I don’t have a preferred age group to work with, as I believe there are advantages to each age group. I am going to be specialized in the social sciences once I have my teaching license, but I have worked with not only that subject, but math, English, science, and writing.
I love working with people and have done my best to always be doing so throughout my life. While in high school, I tutored and mentored other high school students. While in college, I started work ... read more

While I have six years of classroom teaching experience, I've spent the 20 years since my MA in Counseling as a teacher and trainer for a variety of nonprofits. I have trained volunteers, developed manuals and curricula for children through adults, and offered seminars for as many as 200 people. My five years as a writing instructor for a community college honed my skills in all aspects of writing and drew on my BA in English, as well as my avocation as a writer. My background in counseling makes me well-suited to connect with all kinds of people. I am confident I would make a great tutor.
I love learning and communicate that enthusiasm when I teach. I am patient and kind, and very good at breaking down assignments and problems to manageable tasks. I have a creative streak that enables me to devise interesting and effective ways to help students connect with the material. I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and strive every day to become a better teacher, as my career goal is to teach at the university level. I find teaching exciting and difficult. In my discussion sections, I adopt an attitude not of authority over students but of collaboration with students; I try to create and facilitate an environment of collective engagement with a given text or topic. I miss being able to work with students one-on-one, particularly on academic writing, though I do hold weekly office hours and frequently conference with students who are motivated to seek out extra help. I know each of my students every term by name and strive to cultivate meaningful connections with them as people, as learners like myself. I believe that critical thinking is the foundation of academic writing, and I keep this in mind in leading discussions in introductory philosophy courses.

I have always preferred an interactive teaching style. At times in Mongolia I found the language barrier to be inhibiting the learning of the students. This caused me to explore different teaching methods which I otherwise would have never considered. For example, I often chose to teach language by acting out the word or phrase, or having a student act it out. However, there were some classes that were not responsive to this type of teaching and, as a result I resorted to what I had previously considered arcane and authoritarian: repetitious call and response, and by rote. These methods proved to be effective for certain classes. As a result, I am now open to any possible number of teaching methods.
My bachelor's degree from University of Missouri-Columbia is in Political Science. I also minored in Art History. I have done extensive research in each of these areas and feel ... read more

I believe in high academic expectations for my students and clear and transparent communication with them and their families. I believe in setting consistent and attainable goals for my students to initiate and maintain a record of success to build their self confidence and embolden their academic ambitions. Regardless of whether my students currently intend on going to college, I believe in a rigorous high school academic discipline that projects success in college and beyond.
After graduating from Wheaton College with high honors, I served as a Fulbright Scholar to the Slovak Republic where I taught English conversation and researched the role of the Catholic Church in the post-communist era. Subsequently, I served as an AmeriCorps Member for 2 years providing academic tutoring and life-skills training. I moved to Boston in 2008 to teach/tutor at one of the top high schools in th ... read more

My teaching career began in Australia in 1974. I taught in a private school for four years. After returning to Oregon, I attendd the univeersity earning my bachelors and teacher's certification.My teaching assignments included middle school social studies- world history, American history, geography, and language arts. My high school assignments include world history, American history, and geography. I am skilled in teaching study skills.
My teaching style adapts itself to student needs. I like to balance the affective and the cognitive domains. I organize the lesson teaching general overview and vocabulary first then move to specifics and personal applications that can be framed creatively. I teach with a commitment to the subject and the belief that the student deserves my best effort.
