More About This Tutor...

The past ten years for me have been spent teaching English and theology in a third-world setting in Africa, Nigeria to be specific. I have been responsible for organizing and overseeing the curriculum as well as classroom teaching since 1998. I was also a teacher at a Community College in Dallas, TX for a year. During my undergraduate degree, I was involved in tutoring English and math for students who were struggling. I feel that my academic knowledge as well as the practical experience I have gained over the years qualify me to help tutor students in English and math.
I am a strong believer in the Socratic style of teaching which, as you know, helps students themselves to think through issues and problems and discover the answer as we move along. I have always enjoyed leading students to that 'eureka' moment where they have grasped a difficult idea or concept, put it in thei ... read more

I enjoy tutoring children one on one. Many children have difficulties in school because of low confidence levels, which are reinforced in the classroom by very little individual attention. I believe the more comfortable a child feels in her/his learning environment, the easier she/he will learn. As a tutor, I try to ease academic pressure by developing a relaxed, supportive relationship with the student. I emphasize the positive, stronger aspects of their work, and attempt to highlight instances in which the child teaches me. In this way the child confidently confronts learning obstacles without fear of criticism. It is amazing how quickly children advance when they have an exceptional relationship with their teacher. I love to see children discover the breadth of their own potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love being creative and finding ways to help others learn. I am great with children, and believe that patience and encouragement can give them confidence to excel at anything they choose. I am very easy to get along with. I am very patient and understanding. Everyone has different strengths in learning, and everyone has different learning styles. A good educator needs to be aware of the needs of the individual, and teach them in styles that allow them to process and retain information. I love to see those I tutor light up when they finally understand something. I enjoy making a difference to those I teach and watching them succeed.
I have always had a love for math and science. I was able to challenge and develop my problem solving skills in achieving a Masters Degree in Architecture. I have a also received a Minor in Business. My ability to quickly understand and apply m ... read more

I have a unique approach to teaching because my background is both analytical (numbers and science) and imaginative (theater and literature). While classroom training is my forte, I also have a solid background in teaching online. This combination is particularly useful since no two children learn in the same way. I do not believe any student is dumb. If he or she has struggled picking up a concept, it is more likely because the right method of teaching has not yet been explored. I also believe educational advancement needs to be determined objectively by comparing scores from start to finish and subjectively by measuring a student's own feelings about his or her progress.
As a graduate from BYU with a BS in finance and composite minors in accounting and economics, I moved into the medical management field. Within 7 years, I had taken a medical practice struggling to survive financ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although I am patient with the student, I am persistent in searching for new ways to present material so that the student can relate to it. I put my Special Education background to good use with students of all ages and walks of life, especially in breaking a skill into its component parts so as to fill in any knowledge gaps that may be unknowingly holding the student back from success. I am also gifted in recognizing hidden patterns that can help or hinder and either capitalizing on or reducing them as needed. Since I've discovered that it's often self-esteem or fear that creates the learning difficulty, I've also learned to teach esteem-building and stress-relieving techniques that are easy for the student to learn and implement. My mission is sharing with all that I meet the valuable and wonderful things that I learn or discover on my life journey.

Just telling a child how to do a problem is not effective. I believe a teacher needs to explain the logic and reasoning behind solving certain problems certain ways. Knowing this can help the child discover what works specifically to him/her. If a child learns to reason for his/her self, they gain the ability to be lifetime learners. My hope is, that instead of dreading school they gain confidence in their abilities to figure things out, and therefore find joy in learning. Above all it is important to listen to the kids, stay positive, and never show frustration.
Over the past year I have tutored through The College of Idaho's Chemistry Club. Chemistry, especially the math portions, never came easily to me. I had to work hard and spend hours asking professors questions, but now I am much better at chemistry because of it. As a tutor I wanted to help fellow students who were struggl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of The Conservatory of Recording Arts and sciences I have a vast understanding of the principles and science behind music and sound. I am a practicing audio engineer that can record anything from a classical piano to a solo rap artist. I have worked with many groups for live concerts including Bowling for Soup, Hinder, Phil Vasser, Black Eyed Peas, and Three Days Grace. I am also a violinist of almost 10 years and an accomplished vocalist.
My teaching style is very relaxed and laid back. I expect the Student to work as hard as I do and to have a passion for what they are doing. I take an approach to develop a talent along the lines of each students capabilities and determinations. Each student has an a course that is specific to their needs.

None of my family had gone to college, so it was predicted I would not either. I had a hunger to learn, so I systematically worked full-time and studied part-time, earning eight major degrees in cities where they alowed residency rquirements to be met in such a way. I was young and energetic, so it was a lot of work, but a joy. It took about 15 years to finally earn my doctorate. Along the way, I earned certification in a half dozen fields (especially loved English, social stuides, and psychology). I was employed for decades in education, teaching full-time for five years, often teaching on the side when I was counselor or administrator. Except for my earliest years of employment (where I was often employed full-time in radio or newspaper), I often tutored along the way. I have been able to tutor part-time a good many years since I often come across young people (and adults) who ... read more
