Most of the subjects I have selected I passed with an 85% or better. I also did some tutoring in high school for other students. If I didn't learn it, I am most likely to figure out what is going on. It helps to know before hand what the lesson and subject is, just so I can remember what it is and to be more prepared.
I would prefer the library, just because it is big and open. The library in Tooele is a great example. It has rooms that can be used. I would prefer tutoring no more than 10 students at a time. If I can get a copy of the lesson before hand, I can be prepared.

Give Real life experience a try

Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back.
Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style.

The more you ask,the better you learn.So,Keep asking.(I love

Active learning is the most effective way to learn.This entails an ongoing dialogue between teacher and learner.For example,grammar rules are ABSORBED and not taught in an abstract way.At the end of each topic,a role play is implemented where the learner becomes the teacher,and vice versa as this is the best way for both the teacher and students to assess the level of the student's understanding.
more than 35 years of teaching experience in schools,language centers and academies throughout the Middle East. I am a language consultant in English and french where I designed curricula for various levels and trained teachers in linguistic methodology.Teaching is my lifetime passion.The teaching method should be tailored to the student's character,ability and the degree of assimilation.There is no standard method of teaching.

As a Clemson graduate, I understand the importance of education. I have written many technical reports and research papers relevant to both of my degrees and my professional career. I have actively tutored High School students on a volunteer basis in my communities. I often filled in as a substitute teacher in the residential setting for at risk youth. I have tutored and taught, English, Social Studies, Math, and Science. I have worked with children and adults that have been mentally and/or physically challenged.
I understand the different learning styles and how to appropriately apply them. I enjoy teaching young people and am passionate about their way of discovery into their educational goals and outcomes. I realize that some students become frustrated or distracted; however, I believe once they understand how they learn and how to stay focused, they often achive well above expe ... read more

Education has been an integral part of my life. I have a Bachelor's degree from the University of Utah in Business and Accounting and a MBA in Business and Accounting from the University of Phoenix. Most of my teaching experience has come from my volunteer assignments in religious activities, however, I was also a trainer for Select Health where I taught individuals concepts and applications applicable to the health insurance industry. As imagined, I have learned the appropriate rules in writing papers throughout my educational experience.
I do not believe there is one teaching style for every child. Therefore, my teaching method will vary depending on the needs of the individual. I do like to teach using visual aids, chalkboard, and scenarios. I also feel that positive reinforcement of successful accomplishments are critical in creating a strong foundation in learning.

My favorite thing about teaching math is watching those students who once believed they were incapable of doing math become successful in mathematics. I love working with students, particularly at the secondary level, and believe that math is something to get excited about. I firmly believe that students should be guided on a path of discovery when learning math and they should explore where different math ideas came from and why they work. Students should also be given ample practice in order to master their skills, but not blindly following algorithms. I believe that if students are shown why the math works, they will be better able to perform necessary tasks on homework and tests without resorting to memorizing steps. I also believe that it is my job as the teacher to continue learning and progressing myself.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and I have taught all grades and various subjects during my time as a substitute teacher. I think it is important for students to ask questions. This is important for them to be able to learn effectively. I think science is important for students to be able to learn how to think analytically and to develop a curiosity of the world around them.
I have a degree in Microbiology and a minor in Chemistry. I enjoy teaching and I have worked as a substitute teacher for two years. I am also fluent in portuguese and I have taught english to non-native people. I have several years of laboratory experience which I believe enables me to teach children real world examples of how science works. I believe this also can prepare them to think analytically.

My teaching style utilizes multiple methods. One of my talents is the ability to recognize when the light goes on and people understand what is being taught. I make a habit of testing those I work with to ensure comprehension not only in theory but in practice as well. Patience, understanding, and communication are paramount in helping others learn. My abilities to relate the subjects taught and provide a comfortable environment where they can ask questions will enable the most efficient learning possible. Not only do you get my time as a tutor I continue to consider different teaching ideas throughout the day as I continue to problem solve and create ideas to assist the student learn better.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have yet to complete my senior year of studies at the University but I will be done by Spring 2011. I am working towards my first Bachelors Degree, BS in Physics and will continue with school after until I get my MS in Chemical Engineering. Physics and Chemistry have always come easy to me and I know that because of this I can help others understand these sometimes tougher subjects easier.
My teaching style might be a bit unorthodox but it is something I have acquired from past teachers and tutors. I have not helped or tutored in a while but I believe I have an easy and simple approach to it. When it comes to physics and chemistry, the math can be learned over night, the concepts are most critical. You can't read a problem and interpret the question word for word. You have to find a way to relate it to real life and what you see everyday. A spinning disk becomes a truck tire, a s ... read more

For six years I have enjoyed a "love affair" with teaching. Beginning with two years as an elementary school tutor, I was able to gain experience in teaching all subjects, and specialized in reading for students with learning disabilities. Once I began graduate school I began tutoring undergraduate students in a variety of subjects within the colleges of humanities and social and behavioral science. I also worked as a teaching assistant for two years, during which time I was the primary teacher for 1/3 of each semester. I will be substitute teaching for several Anthropology classes this fall while a professor is out of the country for six weeks.
I am a very versatile tutor who believes in adjusting my own teaching style to fit the particular learning style of my students. I am extremely patient, kind, and creative. My goal is to make learning relevant and relatable, because t ... read more
