I spend much of time making the student understand that it is okay to feel behind in a subject and that the student should believe in himself. This belief is built on continued practice on fundamentals that I watch them go through but only ask questions when I see them going astray. Everyone needs to learn the material for his or herself. My place is to make sure they learn the right methods to solve the problem and ensure that they know those methods beyond the tutoring session. I have been tutoring professional for six years and teaching for five. I am certified by the state of Tennessee to teach secondary math. I have worked with all levels of students, from remedial to gifted. I have worked from age 7 through adult learners and had a positive impact at each age and level.

Through my past experiences in the classroom and communities, I feel that I am truly an educator. I am a well-rounded individual with knowledge in many areas of expertise with all age groups. I strive to not only teach, but to reach all children in any setting to the best of my ability, and by doing so--give them the knowledge to succeed in the next stage of their learning process. I feel I can bring a positive outlook to the teaching and learning phase that will create a fun and educational atmosphere for students. I will create an atmosphere where children will feel free to ask questions and participate therefore learn and retain more knowledge. I had to acquire certain skills and knowledge in order to perform my job adequately and to be able to relay this information to others.

Children are and have been a passion of mine since i was a teenager. I have volunteered in my church as well as Young Life serving and helping children. As I worked towards my degree in college, my excitement grew thinking about having my own classroom to share my strengths and talents with children. I am very patient and flexible each day because each day is a new day and brings new adventures. I strongly believe that no matter what race or denomination, a child deserves a chance to learn to their fullest potential. I have many goals as a teacher; however, when a child says to me "You are the best teacher, ever!" one of my goal's has been fulfilled. I have spent over 15 years working with young children as a Lead Teacher in a classroom setting. I have used organization, motivation, high expectations, creativeness, and discipline to teach to groups of 18 to 20 kids each year. I h

I have enjoyed working with children for a long time. In high school, I volunteered at a Summer Reading Academy for elementary school students. I have a bachelor degree from the University of Pennsylvania, majoring in Cognitive Science and minoring in Linguistics and Computer Science. One summer, my internship was working at a Teach For America training campus. I will obtain my master degree in business (MBA) from the University of Memphis in December 2010. I consider my strengths both math and writing. Teaching, in my opinion, is a matter of patience. Each child can learn a skill, though the amount of time it takes to learn that skill may vary from child to child. Some children simply need a few more extra hours per week to pick up the essential skills they will need to be successful in life. Education is so very, very important. My belief is that each child can succeed in life if they

Teaching is a profession that is not well recognized, however my reason for teaching lays within my family values. I believe that the youth is the future. This core belief of mines allow me to dedicate myself to understanding how children learn and ultimately how I can best serve the children. My experience as a teacher is rooted in family values. I was taught to believe that I could excel in what ever I put my mind too. After graduating from high school at the age of 16 and starting college as the youngest in my class, I quickly fell in love with chemistry. After, graduating with my BS, and latter my MS, I have worked between academia and industry for a number of years. This experience has allowed me to develop a hands on approach to teaching.

Science and math is best taught using self discovery and inquiry. I use these methods extensively. Patience is necessary as you first model, then assist, and finally use practice so the student gains fluency in the skill. I plan lessons around individual learning style and ability. Tough love is needed so a student will reach potential as is recognition of progress. I used my tecnical skills in the real world for 35 years. Hence I bring real world applications that are relevant and familiar to the student. This experience gives me a large portfolio of examples and approaches to explain what are often abstract concepts. Finally, the use of humor and today's digital tools help connect the student to the subject. I retired from a technical/executive career in the chemical industry. My last position was as VP of Operations and Innovation. I have a degree in Chemical Engineering, some gr

Teaching is a learning process, and I love teaching youn children particularly science because it is the build block of our nation.

With the knowledge in teaching couple with skills , I will be a very useful candidate in helping learner to understand materials, and be competitive the world.

I love helping people. I feel that a student can always teach a student better than a teacher. Their teaching style is a lot forgiving and the student is less intimidated knowing that someone else has been where he/she is currently. It also takes a great deal of patience to teach someone something and a forgiving nature. I excel at both of those. As a high school student, I excelled at my schoolwork. I was retained as a tutor for middle school students in math and science subjects. When I entered college, my major in engineering has required that I take a lot of upper level math and science courses. These rigorous courses have strengthened my math and science skills. I am very well versed from algebra all the way to Calculus two.

Teaching style may vary, depending on many factors; children culture, background, and the child's learning style. Because of this, I believe it is absolutely necessary to plan lessons to reach diversity. I personally like the discovery approach to teaching. This method fosters inquiry rather than didactic (e.g., lecture). The students are encouraged to ask questions and to hypothesize as they deduce the concepts and principles of the lesson experience. I also like to use the constructivist approach as well. I am a firm believer that all children can be inspired to develop a desire to become a life long learner. I am proud to say that I am an advocate for education. I love learning. I have earned two degrees, BS in Business Finance and Masters in Educational Management. I have also completed over 60 hours in Elementary Education, with emphasis in phonemic awareness, which has enhanced m
