Licensed Substitute Teacher with flexible schedule

I am currently a substitute teacher and part time college instructor.

More About This Tutor...

I provide opportunities for students to engage in hands-on activities that are interesting and meaningful to them and that promote critical thinking skills. I assign reading material that directly supports these activities so my students can read with a purpose. Learning takes effort; it can be challenging and frustrating, but is also very rewarding. I encourage students and provide assistance when needed to help them learn challenging concepts without getting frustrated. I try to accommodate individual learning preferences by providing students with choices for independent or group activities.
After twenty years working in the environmental, health and safety field, I was motivated to change careers and become a science teacher. As a "second career" teacher, I earned a Master of Education degree at the University of Toledo and am licensed to teach Integrated Science (i.e., Ea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The 2009-2010 school year will be my third year as a substitute teacher. I have worked with all levels of students, from special needs elementary to AP high school courses, and in both urban and suburban districts. I had some training as an educator in college but have lots of real world experience as well. I have a deep understanding of research strategies and love all of the social sciences. I also am a parent to a third grader who recently tested into her school's gifted program and have plenty of experience supplementing curriculum to encourage the accelerated learner.
I believe that no two students learn alike and the most important thing is to make sure students are having fun with learning. If learning is looked at as boring or hard students will try to avoid it, when learning is fun students learn without realising the work involved. I am willing to try a new tactic w ... read more

I started tutoring in 7th grade back in 1976. I have been tutoring my own kids for over 14 years. I have been a Scout leader for over 9 years. I worked with boys ages 5 to 18 years of age.

During my undergraduate at Marquette University, I worked as a teaching assistant for General Anatomy and Advanced Anatomy. I not only taught the students, but tutored them privately as well. I was also a tutor for physiology at Marquette. Both of these experiences have strengthened my ability to relay knowledge to another person, as well as solidify my science knowledge. I now work at Owens community college teaching Anatomy and Physiology. I have extensive basic and advanced science knowledge and truly enjoy teaching.
As stated above, I truly enjoy teaching; this applies to adults as well as children. Not only am I patient and easy to work with, I also am passionate about making learning fun and painless. I enjoy learning as much as I enjoy teaching; therefore, I attempt to surround my students with a relaxed and fun teaching environment while still getting all the information to ... read more

As an elementary teacher for 10 years, I am a versatile, flexible individual with the talent to develop lessons for every child's learning style and ability. I believe all students can learn and benefit from differentiated instruction (i.e. one-on-one, whole group, etc.) Technology is integrated into my teaching through Web Quests, Power Point, Smart Board and spreadsheets. It is my desire to make a difference in all of my student's lives.
I am a dedicated, resourceful and goal-driven professional educator with a solid commitment to the academic growth and development of every student. My interpersonal and communication skills foster meaningful relationships with students and parents. As a substitute teacher I wrote IEPs for 7th grade students for 6 months. Also, I have been a Title One reading teacher for 1st and 2nd grade students. I had a contract to teach 5th grade students ... read more

Most of my classes have been lecture format, but the majority of my classes also consisted of a weekly lab component. In lab, I worked one-on-one with students and aided their learning in both the lecture material and hands-on laboratory materials.
I have a bachelor's and a master's degree in Biology. I was a full time college lecturer in Biology and Anatomy&Physiology from 2004 until 2008. This past year I returned to school to obtain an MD. I am currently a medical student and have completed medical school level anatomy, embryology, histology, biochemistry and neuroscience.

I enjoy teaching chemistry and believe that everyone can learn and understand chemistry. Everyone learns differently and I try to diversify my explanation of material using examples to which the student can relate. I try to help the student overcome the preconception that chemistry is an impossible subject to learn and show how chemistry is applicable in everyday life.
I have earned a Bachelor’s degree in chemistry with a minor concentration in German. During my undergraduate studies, I was a teaching assistant for both general and organic chemistry laboratories. During my graduate studies, I taught general chemistry laboratory and lecture for four years. I am presently teaching general chemistry laboratory part-time at a local university. In addition, I am also employed as a chemist in industrial research and development, which has allowed me to use and enhance my chemical e ... read more

I thoroughly love teaching as I come from a line of teachers myself. I have demonstrated that learning happens on multiple levels depending on what level one is working on. In my experience, I have learned that understanding is a process which involves listening, question and answer, humility, multiple approaches (including mixed media, visual and audio stimulus, humor, etc.), and a general openness to learn. Patience is key, and to learn is not just to memorize--it is to understand. Through the learning of the knowledge of relationships and the inter-working of things is understanding of subject material attained. We are all children, and as children we strive to break the barriers that close our minds. A good teacher knows how to ferret out these barriers that prevent our learning and open the doors to discovery and thought. It is with this knowledge that every student I have ta ... read more

Upon graduation from college in 1989, I immediately began my teaching career. I taught Kindergarten my first year then began a challenging yet rewarding run with the severe behaviorally handicapped. The more divers and challenging the population I work with, the better I like it. Reading and language arts are my favorite subjects to teach, as they encompass absolutely everything in a student's academic life. I do have much experience in teaching all subjects from being a veteran teacher of a self contained classroom. I believe in a strong concept base. I like to break subjects down to the barest concept then build on and enhance skills.
I am quite capable of doing other things, however, I love being in a classroom. I embrace challenge. I find when I am in the classroom I constantly learn things about myself. I am a willing learner myself and strive to project that while te ... read more

As a foster parent, I tutored our first child as he progressed through kindergarten and the first grade. His previous school experience was lacking at best, and he had little confidence in his scholastic ability. I was able to pinpoint his natural aptitude--mathematics--and use it to help not only boost his self-esteem regarding academics, but also to tailor my approach to his other subjects as well. Since math is very much tied to logic, using logical constructs to aid him in his critical thinking proved fruitful in showing him how to solve problems regarding tasks such as alphabetization, grammar, and spelling, among others.
Each individual has a unique approach to critical thinking, and using that approach is the best way for that person to learn. I make every attempt to identify a person's perspective so as to shape my teaching for that person in the best possible way. Whe ... read more
