My comments on tutoring Continuing Education : Have taught many workshops for adult students, and have been a returning student myself. Can help with both the process of going into the education process again, as well as with organizing adult education courses.

Have been tutoring for twenty years, and have also taught on a college level for ten. I have taught in a variety of contexts, such as one-on-one, kid's day camp, online and ongoing workshops. I once ran my own company with a specialty in tutoring diversity software students. I have an extremely high success rate, with virtually no students going away not meeting at least basic objectives. I have a B.A. in Art from San Francisco State University, and an M.F.A. in Design from UCLA, and have taught at UC Santa Cruz, UC Santa Barbara, San Francisco State University, Art Center College of Design and the Art Institute of Houston. Clients include: The Saybrook Institute, Fresno Pacific University, Bay Area Discovery Museum, The Bank of America and the San Francisco School District. I also have done volunteer work with CompuMentor, a San Francisco-based non-profit that matches non-profits with c ... read more

An enthusiastic tutor with a PhD in chemistry!

I have a PhD and Masters in Chemistry, and have taught courses both at the undergraduate and graduate level. I am an expert in organic, analytical and geochemistry, with experiencing teaching at all levels in those subjects. Since I am originally from the UK, I have a solid background in all aspects of chemistry, so am able to tutor students in foundation courses as well. Through my research, I have gathered extensive experience in using the Microsoft Office Suite, and am able to help students in this field.
I have found through my 6 years of teaching students, that flexibility is a key component. Explaining a difficult concept to a student should be customized to each individual students' needs. I encourage students to always ask questions even if they think they are stupid. Everyone has to ask those questions at some point in their career! One of the most important goals of my te ... read more

As a lifelong learner I have a unique perspective on how difficulties inside and outside of school can effect learning. I earned by B.S. in Business when I was 31 years old and I am now in the process of earning my Masters Degree. During this time I have aquired the skills needed to become succesful in learning and I am eager to share these skills with others. My ultimate goal is to instruct college classes to help others make thier stars shine.
My teaching style reflects my personality and that is comfortable and confident. Peoples' minds are most open to learning when they are comfortable with their situation, surroundings, and the people they are interacting with. Being confident in yourself will lead to confidence in your students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I do indeed love to teach. My approach is relaxed, well-prepared, encouraging, and humorous when appropriate. I prefer interactive communications. My passion for the subject matter is obvious in my enthusiasm. I am punctual but am not a clock-watcher. I am there for as long as someone needs me. I also make my phone number available in case a student needs to ask me a question. I like to start a tutoring/teaching process by developing mutually agreed-upon learning goals. Finally, I find that the most effective way to impart knowledge is to make it as real and applied as possible. The more I can relate the subject to the student's life, interests, and "world" in general the more likely it will resonate and take hold.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked as an accounting and payroll support person for 12 years. I truly enjoyed teaching people about their programs and helping them “see the light” sort of speak. I also feel I am an encourager by nature as I love people of all ages. I have a good background in accounting as I’ve also worked quite a few years in the accounting department of a publishing company. I am currently the accountant for a small business and am developing my own bookkeeping/accounting company. I'm a recent graduate of Everest College Online.
I am a patient person – not many things bother me. I like to find the best learning style for each individual person I tutor. I also believe that all people (whatever their age) have value and the potential to learn if they are the least bit curious. I strive to be the person that people respect and also never forgets. I also like to have fun with my stude ... read more

Effective, long-term educational results occur best in a teaching environment that includes energy, enjoyment, and enthusiasm (i.e., the joy of learning!). With that motivation, I believe that building a strong foundation in every subject area is the key to students' learning and retention. Teaching the "Hows" and "Whys"---not just the "Whats" (the answers)--is imperative as is critical thinking and organizational development! Also, relevant, meaningful applications of learned material are essential and encouraged. Being a results-oriented, caring tutor and mentor is always my ultimate goal---with smiles all around! Teaching competence while developing confidence is the key to effective learning!

I believe that children need positive and supportive individuals in their lives. I am a teacher who makes learning exciting and relevant through real-life simulations, hands on experiences, and celebration of accomplishments. I believe children are naturally creative, inquisitive, and energetic. I can help students focus their energy to further enhance their creative and inquisitive abilities. I truly love teaching. The greatest feeling I have is when a struggling student reaches understanding. Knowing I am able to use a variety of teaching techniques to help students find academic success is why I believe I succeed as a teacher. I am a caring, creative, enthusiastic person who loves to make a difference.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is guided by the student, curriculum and situation. It is crucial to evaluate where a student is in the learning process, understand how each learns best and be clear regarding course expectations. Developing specific strategies and changing with challenges that arise is essential. I am kind, patient and creative, have high expectations of myself and others, and believe that all people can learn. A key to meeting the needs of students is to have healthy and professional boundaries while creating good relationships; one of my greatest strengths is relating to students on a personal level and then tailoring the learning to this real person. I look forward to being involved with people who choose to learn.

A Little Bit About Me...

In my opinion every student learns in a different way giving his or her own approach to developing an understanding of new unfamiliar knowledge. Also these same students shift their methods depending upon the material being introduced and discussed. It is for this reason that I seek to first try to carefully understand the students learning style and adjust my teaching style to match. Examples: Leaning by example, teacher solves a math problem for the student in a step-by-step approach with the benefit of why the teacher is using these particular steps and approach.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience as both a teacher and a tutor. I graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in English/Secondary Education. Throughout my years in college I learned theories of education, observed in classrooms and student taught at both the middle school and high school level. After graduating college in 2003, I taught 9th grade English for 2 years in a charter school in Houston, TX. After I relocated to Chicago, IL, I entered the corporate sector; however, I continued to volunteer as a tutor for 2 years. Given my past experiences, I have had the opportunity to work with students at many different levels and have tutored in various subject areas.
I have always been a believer in giving students a foundation from which to learn and grow. I enjoy teaching students basic skills that can be applied to many different subject areas. For example, I think things like t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

For the last 3 years I have been working as a special education teacher at a non-proft treatment facility. I enjoy working with children. I conduct myself in a very positive manner and do a very good job in navigating between teaching material to the class and supportively intervening with behavior challenges and conducting solid classroom management. On two different occasions in the first class, I addressed a concern, did not power struggle and both situations ended up positively for the youth and for the rest of the class.
I utilize several different teaching strategies and attempt to pull strengths from the youth and work with positives. I give examples and direct youth in the direction of the correct answers. I utilize reading and instructing out loud to the class, writing on the board for further and clearer instructions and information, using real life ideas and situations ... read more

I feel very fortunate having had the opportunity to educate myself without any regard on obstacles that so many other children may face. Therefore I also feel obligated to share my knowledge with those who might be interested or in need of a hand. Learning is very individual; tutoring should follow the learning style that best suites the student. Yet the bottom line, I believe, is understanding the concept, creation of so called "ahaa"-moment when all the pieces fall in place. I emphasize repetition for memory building, discussion sessions to estimate the degree of understanding, and finally an independent piece of work to demonstrate the depth of understanding, as well as to build up the student's self esteem.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in paid teaching (excluding numerous volunteer and non-paid opportunities) range from teaching Vietnamese refugee "boat-people" children (news film footage archived by Vanderbilt University) in 1975 through years of Orange County (CA) adult education in English as a Second Language to my present duties in metro Denver of teaching immigrant adults in English as a Second Language. Along the way, I also experienced fulltime day teaching of a kindergarten class in Fresno and a combined 7th-8th grade moderate-to-severe special education class in Inglewood, California.
My teaching style could be described as modified Montessorian, in an attempt to appeal to all the senses, and to affect the learning channels of each student as a unique individual. Encouragement is lavished on even the adult students, and not all errors are equally vital to correct on an immediate basis. One ... read more
