In many ways, learning can be customized to fit the individual interests of students, and I challenge myself to make each session one filled with new ideas and topics. I believe that the combination of hobbies and personal interests, along with the subject matter is the key to learning. While focusing on science, I strive to introduce other related topics and probe for what each student is interested in. Further, I believe in teaching through learning. Students love to express their own ideas about science, math, and civics, and through challenging these ideas, a teacher can instruct, while simultaneously empowering the student. Completion of a BSBA degree in Management of Information Systems has given me valuable experience in a wide array of business functions as well as a team based and case driven experience over four years. The strongest of my skills are in reading, math, and tec

As a teacher, I have learned that not only can I teach the children, but they can teach me how to help them better understand. Each child has a different way of learning and it is my job to help them develop the skills that they need in order to process the information. Teaching is also about forming a trusting relationship with your students and letting them know that I am here to help them. As a graduate of the University of Alabama, I have had several experiences within the classroom. Throughout my student teaching, I have worked with grades K, 2, 3, and 5. After graduating, I began substituting for all elementary grade levels. My substituting experiences led to a maternity leave position in a third grade classroom.

The best way to describe my teaching style is flexible. I don't limit myself to one style because I've never taught one type of child. Students are diverse and as a teacher my style of teaching must also be diverse. I believe in modeling and hands-on learning experiences. Students need to see new concepts worked through correctly. They should then show understanding of material through such processes as reteaching and through real world application whenever possible. My experience in education is vast. I have earned a BA in elementary education. I have worked for eight years as a teacher in the education field. I also have a MAED in Early Childhood. I have also taught a Kindergarten class in church school for a year as well as serving as church school superintendent. I also have experience in working in a home preschool for one year during college. I have past and recent experience worki

I graduated from Wake Forest in 2008, double-majoring in Mathematics and Physics. I also took some courses in the Education Department, and substitute taught for public high schools and middle schools in Winston-Salem, NC and Metairie, LA. I have worked in tutoring programs for elementary school children approximately twice a week for a total of twelve months. I have recently learned HTML, PHP, and Javascript programming languages, and am the designer and programmer for the Facebook application Harry Potter House Sort. I think educators must take into account the different ways in which students learn. For instance, I've noticed that math students may have difficulty adding and subtracting fractions, but have no trouble whatsoever when I ask about dimes and quarters. If an instructor can build a bridge between new material and material the student has already mastered, the stu

As a Summa Cum Laude graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a BS in Business Administration, and a BS along with an M.Ed in Collaborative Special Education, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math, Reading, and science. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers, a Thesis, and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last ten years I have taught space history at the US Space and Rocket Center, and tutored students in English, mathematics, history and science as a Collaborative teacher. I am currently working on my PhD in Reading Comprehension. I love teaching and working with all children. Being a special educator, I focus my teaching style towards the needs of the student.

My teaching style is center around my philosophy of education. My philosophy of education consist of the beliefs that all students are entitled to a quality education that effectively prepares them for competition in the job markets. Each student deserves an education that teaches critical thinking skills and the importance of the self in relations to the world. Every classroom needs an educator that remains abreast of the ever changing information relevant to school curriculum and policies. Every student is entitled to a learning environment in which they feel safe and respected, a learning environment that encourages academic and social growth while fostering a sustained sense of academic accomplishment within the student I began my teaching experience in childhood.

I began to realize my love and aptitude for tutoring as a volunteer Japanese instructor for the Daikin home-stay program in 2006. The next two years I volunteered my time with Rosie's International Services tutoring Spanish. At the beginning of the Spring 2008 semester, the Head of the Foreign Language Department, Dr. Maier, submitted my name to a tutoring department at UAH, where I worked tutoring Spanish, Japanese, Latin, Chinese, and English as a Second Language until I graduated in Spring 2010. Although I do not have an education degree nor teaching certificate, I was hired as a part-time Spanish teacher at Austin High School 2010-2011, where I started an informal Japanese Culture Club. The first thing I do with any new student is identify his or her learning style so that I may incorporate those specific strategies into my lesson for an effective and personalized learning experience

I recently earned my second bachelor degree, BS in Chemical Engineering and BS in Chemistry, from The University of Alabama in Huntsville. I have gained understanding in critical thinking, technical writing, and a good foundation of math and science necessary in the field of Chemistry. I began tutoring my sophomore year of college, after a professor told me I solved a tricky problem in an odd, yet time effective manner. I tutored inorganic chemistry, algebra, calculus, statistics, and various engineering classes. I continued tutoring for 1 year, at which time I began teaching a chemistry lab. I enjoy helping students see that math, chemistry and engineering courses are doable, and that they have much potential. I am polite, patient, and extremely motivated. I will not be satisfied with myself until I am sure the student has learned and overcome the problem at hand. I strive to be as

My experience ranges a great deal and encompasses a lot of subject matter from K-12 Math to English and Literature. My wide range of expertise is indicative of my schooling where I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications that exposed me to the Liberal Arts world; while my minor in Industrial and Systems Engineering and Master of Science degree in Information Technology exposed me to more technical subject matter (i.e. various levels of Math). I have had the privilege of tutoring approximately 5 clients in the span of roughly 2 years and each one under my tutelage boasted significant performance improvement in subject areas they found initially challenging. I love teaching and interacting with willing minds.

I love teaching. I feel anyone has the ability to learn it is just a matter of having the right resources available. I am passionate about teaching, especially the sciences. I am hard-working, patient, and concerned about the welfare of those I teach. I do my very best in all that I pursue and want the very best for those I tutor. I graduated from Oakwood University with a B.S. in Biology. As a student, I maintained above a 3.5 GPA the duration of my college years. I bring a wealth of science knowledge. As a 7th grade science teacher, I worked tirelessly to ensure the success of each student. I have also tutored Biology at the college level which has helped me to understand the difficulties that face students in learning material.
