Assessment of teaching effectiveness The two words that best describe my teaching style are adaptive and creative. During class time, I expose students to various stimuli that allow them to drive their own learning. I use the following: • Show media & movie clips (To aid visual learners). • Written homework assignments (To inspire reading/writing oriented learners). • Music to help students understand abstract concepts (This approach benefits auditory learners). • Lecture using a Socratic method for all students. I believe my classes are 80% student driven and 20% instructor driven. I have always approached the process of teaching with a facilitator’s mindset. Clearly, each course has overall learning objectives, but the process to achieve those objectives can be hindered or advanced by the instructor’s skill at being a resource to empower versus creating dependency.

My style of teaching involves discussion, reading, writing, and hands on. if possible. I strive to get my students to feel comfortable which I find brings out creative thinking. I have experience teaching students with slow or difficult learning abilities and students with handicaps such as blind or deaf. My department dean saw my abilities in working with special needs students and placed the students in my classes. I believe one-on-one teaching builds trust with students and relaxes them. I motivate students by installing a positive outlook in the students mind.

My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task. As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subj

I am a recent college graduate with a bachelor's degree in TESOL. While a senior in college, I taught an intermediate ESL class for a semester and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also minored in Business/Office Administration and took specialized classes in Windows Vista and Microsoft Office programs. In addition, I have taught beginner and intermediate private piano lessons for two years. I also acquired some experience with special needs when I worked after school as a personal aide to a non-verbal teenage girl with severe autism. I have taught a variety of skills and ages, from 1st graders in piano lessons to elderly adult immigrants learning the English language. I have a desire to meet people on their level and encourage them grow. I strive for an atmosphere that is both positive and structured that is a help to both my students and their parents.

I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible for anyone to learn; some people just have to take a different approach to get to their objective. I love the entire learning and teaching process, and I am pretty fond of people as well! I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. I took

What I have learned working with students is that many do not learn in the same manner. I beleive in what is called top process learning. Given the student a concept and allowing them to explore the possibilities of how one arrives at such a concept has allowed deeper critical thinking and strategic planning. However, this method is not predominately taught in Georgia education system. I have found this method to be very effective. The other method is patience. Students who strugge with their academic learning usually are having other areas of difficulty which may be social learning. Having clinical training allows me to make a more accurate assessment. During the last 10 years I have worked with all levels of students, preschool through college levels. These areas include reading, math, english, psychology, science and social studies.

For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I was selected, by the International Teachers Abroad Program at Vanderbilt (ITAP), to teach graduate level, teaching assistants, how to enhance their ability to communicate in English and to communicate their subject matter to undergraduate students. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, I began working full-time at a modern-day orphanage. This 12-year experience gave me plenty of opportunities to expand my skill set with special needs and at-risk, male youth. In addition to tutoring, I train in the areas of broadcast production and editing as well as business development. It is most important to communicate respect

As an adjunct instructor, I have the responsibility to provide to students a curriculum that covers the course objectives as well as to utilize related technology to enhance learning. As a personal goal, I strive to incorporate higher-level learning using problem-solving techniques to assist students to connect their current studies with previous and/or future studies in the related disciplines. I facilitate individualized instruction to students who require additional assistance with their coursework. I have taught courses online and face to face in the following areas: Web Design, Graphics, Animation, Specialized Software Packages, Art History, Math and Spanish. The quality of education that I received has inspired me to give the same quality and better.

I have two plus years of tutoring experience and ten plus years of practical accounting and business experience. While attending DeVry University, I served as a tutor for Math and Accounting. I’m happy to say that with my dedication and hard work the majority of my tutees, which were technical majors, passed all of their accounting and math courses with high marks. I also have a lot of work-related experience that allows me to teach fellow co-workers. From teaching new employees company accounting policies and procedures to updating current co-workers on newly implemented processes, I have attained a great deal of experience teaching and tutoring over the years.

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn.
