Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Gatewood, MO

This might be my first year teaching, but that does not take away from my passion or excitement for teaching! I love kids, I most of all love seeing that “ah ha” moment on their faces! This is my first year as a 3rd grade teacher. Previously I was a substitute teacher and taught all grades. I was also a teacher through a summer program locally; Here I taught students how to work, how to save money and then helped them get their first job. No matter the task, I love watching kids succeed with confidence! I get EXCITED about teaching! I love to implement all different resources to help all different types of learners to fully understand the concept. Being able to move around, hear, write and see the information will allow kiddos to soak up all that information!

I have worked as a special education instructor for Arkansas public schools for over 16 years, and enjoy helping a student discover the potential within themselves. I have taught 3-point paragraph and essay writing in both the EXPOSITORY and NARRATIVE forms, both important components of preparing for the state Benchmark exams. I am able to see things from a global perspective in terms of the stringent requirements kids have to strive for not only in the testing, but in their future lives. Further, I am a nationally published writer, songwriter, and director. I also hold half a masters degree in Psychology. I would be an excellent tutor for the Language Arts, Fine Arts, or Humanities areas. I believe in starting where someone is. I spend the first meeting getting to know the student, what he or she doesn't know, and what they need to know to be successful. I believe everyone is an ind

I have a bachelor degree in computer science from Arkansas State University. I had to take many math classes to receive this degree. Some of the classes included Calculus I-III, Prob and Stat, and algebra. I have 4-5 years of training experience. I have trained bank employees how to use newly installed software and also trained bank mailroom employees how to follow instructions for sorting and distributing bank mail. I have also spent many hours helping my former stepdaughter with her high school math homework. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate.

I believe that each student has their own style of learning and soak up information differently then other students. I myself like to learn visually and hands on. I have tried many styles of learning to see what works for me. I record lectures, take my own notes, like to question myself while I'm studying for a test. I think connecting something to something you already know will help you retain that new information very well. It makes me feel great when I know I have taught someone well and that they actual understand the information and are not just regurgitating what I am telling them. I am a biology graduate from the University of Colorado. I am planning on getting my PhD in Molecular Bio-science. I love biology and all of the other subjects withing biology (ie. molecular biology, microbiology, genetics, ecology etc. ) I also enjoy math a lot my degree only required me to complete Ca

My teaching style is to go head on with my students and to address every weak point possible. It is crucial to understand how the student both feels and interprets information. If a student does not seem to comprehend using a certain teaching method then it is imperative to find a different way to present the course materials. I have been very successful with my teaching methods and have received continuous high marks in classes instructed,(can provide student feedback documented by ASU if needed). Overall I love to interact with people and teaching is a people business. During my master's studies I was asked to share my research in International Relations in Little Rock, St. Louis, Dallas, Waco, New Orleans, and Honolulu. Upon receiving my master's degree from Arkansas State University, I received a position as an adjunct instructor in the political science department for Para
