More About This Tutor...

Normally I will watch as the student works and when they get stuck is when I would help them. If they do not understand the material I will go back and teach it again. Once they seem to get it I would give one or two practice problems just to be sure they understand completely. I have no issues with repeating things multiple times if it means furthering the child's knowledge.
I have only ever tutored my neighbors two daughters. They both benefitted from it and both of the girls grades went up. Most of the time I would help them with math ,but would also help in any subject they needed, and they would work on their homework as I watched and guided them in the correct direction. If they were truly lost I would reteach the section and try to relate it to something they would better understand. They seemed to enjoy having me over to help and I loved being able to help them when they ne ... read more

Having parents that place a great emphasis in achieving higher education, I graduated from high school with the age of 15 years old and was accepted in National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, for the degree in Life Science Biology. While studying in Taiwan,I offered individual tutoring in Spanish and English for college students and adults who wanted to improve their knowledge on the language. After two years of studying in Taiwan, I decided to expand my horizons in education and applied for Brigham Young University Hawaii for the major of Psychology.During the time I spent studying in Brigham Young University Hawaii, I worked for the Counseling Department as tutor for a variety of subjects from Foreign Languages (such as Chinese and Spanish) to General Education (such as Psychology, Biology, History, Art, etc).

15 years experience in a broad variety of subjects!

I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts students at ease- and it is proven that a tense mind can not learn, only when the student loses their anxiety over the material will they absorb it!
I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanit ... read more

Florida Certified Educator for Elementary to High School

I have a collaborative style of teaching. My ultimate goal is to get students to think, regardless of their age. With younger students, I tend to be much more directive so that we accomplish intended learning. With middle and high school students, I ask "Why" and "How do you know" quite often so that they learn to provide evidence for their thinking. Getting the RIGHT answer isn't the goal -- understanding and developing critical thinking processes are much more valuable!
I have two decades of experience in education. My first 10 years were spent in adult education training adults to work in various organizations in the business world. My last 10 years have been spent in public education classrooms working as a teacher for elementary, middle, and high school students. I have taught core content courses at each level. Therefore, I understand how each grade level builds upon ... read more

Let's write :)

Writing has always been a passion of mine. My father is a writer/editor, so I grew up reading and writing often. In high school, I volunteered in the Writing Center for two years. We helped students with any part of the writing process, from brainstorming ideas for a paper to editing a final draft. I decided to follow my passion into college, and I chose to go to Florida State University to major in Creative Writing with minors in Communication and Psychology. College was a great opportunity for me to grow with my writing. Throughout my time in Tallahassee, I held two internships. One focused on marketing/social media, and the other internship allowed me to create a newsletter for the honors program. I conducted the interviews for features, wrote articles, and edited the content as well. As a creative writing major, I also had the opportunity to expand my short fiction and poetr ... read more

My comments on tutoring Literature : I have studied American Literature in college

Creative, interactive.
I have a Master Degree in French Literature. While my Bachelor, i took Didactics classes and tought for one year French and English in the best high-school in Cluj Napoca. For one year I volunteered in a school for children with visual deficencies. My experience has thought me that with creativity, good sense and humour children can be motivated and motivation works ten times better than seeing school as a duty.

English/Language Arts Tutor

While attending Texas Tech University I was employed by the Marsha Sharp Center for Student Athletes as a tutor and worked with athletes in the following subject areas: English, Spanish, Art History, History, and Political Science. I was also a summer school teacher for a non-profit organization called Shalom Readers and led a classroom of children between 6 and 8 years of age. I was responsible for planning Christian based games and learning activities for them as well as providing them with coursework that covered all basic subject areas. I graduated from Texas Tech cum laude with a degree in English and a double minor in Spanish and Electronic Media and Communications. I come from a family of teachers and hope to gain my certification soon. Please contact me if you are need of tutoring!

More About This Tutor...

I believe all effective educational experiences begin with an emphatetic, caring instructor. Students need to learn through their own efforts, not through a teacher or tutor "doing the work for them." Therefore, I help the student complete the work themselves. Students are sometimes afraid to try difficult subjects out of fear of failure. A quality instructor will enable a student break through this fear, by demonstrating how each is individually skilled and gifted. Giving a student a taste of accomplishment is one of the strongest motivators toward educational success. All students are valuable as learners. They simply need to be shown this value in their own work.
Besides my knowledge of computer programming, I hold a degree in in English and Secondary Education (grades 6-12), a Master's degree in Library Science, and CELTA certification in ESL (English as a second language) from ... read more

I strive to adapt my teaching strategies to the individual needs of each student. My goal is to plan lessons that will be effective and enjoyable for each student. I believe in encouraging students to use higher-level thinking skills and in providing hands-on opportunities for learning. One of my strengths is determining each student's weaknesses and planning lessons that will lead them on the road to success.
I have vast experience teaching many subjects at various levels ranging from preschool to high school. The subjects I have taught include reading, writing, grammar, advanced literature, and history. In addition to graduating with honors with a Bachelor's degree in English Education, I am currently enrolled in Montessori training, which offers me additional teaching strategies to enrich students' learning.

I have direct experience as a tutor in the University of Texas at Tyler Writing Center. While working there, I assisted students in all parts of the writing process from initial outlines to proper citation of sources. My more recent positions have all involved some element of training. These experiences ranged from lecture-style presentations to phone, email and face to face instruction.
I am familiar with most major learning styles but do not subscribe to one particular view. To me, effective teaching means being fluid, adaptable, and responsive to the students’ needs and learning styles. Just as a carpenter will use the right tools for the right job, I believe that a good instructor can assess and pick from several approaches the one that will benefit his or her students the most. In all cases, enthusiasm and knowledge of the subject matter are the two most important attrib ... read more
