I graduated from Bemidji State University with my Early Childhood Elementary degree in 2007 and for the last two years I have been a k-3 Literacy Tutor with the Minnesota Reading Corps. While I was at BSU I was active with the local girl scouts, and in three years I was a Studio 2B counselor, a pixie camp coordinator, a troop leader, and the co-community coordinator. At BSU I had a variety of different labs and practicums. I was a reading and science tutor, I was placed in a head start classroom, and I had four different student teaching experiences: toddler, preschool, kindergarten, and first grade. My most rewarding position, however, has been as a reading tutor with MRC at an elementary school in Duluth, MN. I believe that all children should have the opportunity to be successful and the best way to help them realize that potential is by hands on direct instruction. I sp

After I earned my BFA, I started working towards my Master of Art in Art History. I have an understanding of most studio art forms and extensive knowledge of Art History. When I started working on my thesis, I joined the Minnesota Reading Corps, and have been teaching early literacy ever since. For the last three years, I have been working in Head Start classes, preparing children for kindergarten. I am currently enrolled in the FasTrack program at Bemidji State University working on getting my teaching license in Visual Arts K-12. I have been researching the Search Institute's 40 Developmental Assets because I plan on using them as a base for the children that I work with at Community Action Duluth through the Circles of Support program. I believe that teaching children academic skills while building assets within them is necessary for a healthy community. I teach around the 4MAT

With a BA in English and Minor in Mass Communications, I pursued careers utilizing my writing, editing, and communication talents. Five years in the professional world helped me realize my passion lies in teaching English composition. Thus, I decided to attend graduate school for an MA in English in order to fulfill my passion. During this time, I gained intensive training centered around composition theories and methods, linguistics, written assessments, and rhetoric. In addition to attending full-time graduate school, I was also a graduate teaching assistant responsible for developing and presenting curricula aimed at helping students discern different situations, aims and purposes in writing. I presented 50 plus class sessions per semester to 25 students, ranging in age from 18-62 and originating from seven different countries. While my MA coursework is completed, I am currently wri

I am three semesters away from completing two degrees, BS Biochemistry and Molecular Biology as well as BS Chemistry, at the University of Minnesota Duluth. I have a solid background in mathematics as well as biology and chemistry. I tutored math, pre-algebra through first semester calculus, at Lake Superior College from the beginning of fall semester 2008 to the end of spring semester 2009. I enjoy working one on one or with small groups of students. I enjoy the challenges of tutoring teenagers, as well as adults. I am a firm believer in teaching by example, and gaining fundamental understanding of material as opposed to “teaching for a test.” I engage students and try to challenge the confidant while offering support to the less self-assured. The reason that I choose to tutor is not so much for the money but for the gratifying feeling of helping someone succeed, and I sincerely b

As an undergraduate student I worked at a general science and math tutor as well as a class specific calculus I tutor. I was teaching assistant for calculus I for two semesters and ran a study table for the athletic department for student with a GPA less than 2.5. As a graduate student I have taught both majors and non-majors biochemistry lab as well as general chemistry lab and discussion. I have had the opportunity to lecture, write quizzes, tests, and homework for college level courses as well as grade all course material. Teaching is a very important part of learning; it is an ongoing process that is active and not static. My style of teaching is less conventional than most at a large university due to my liberal arts undergraduate education. I think that many students learn different ways and it is important to let the learner control the learning process. As an instructor you

I enjoy working with children. My volunteering experience with children at Grant Elementary gave me opportunity to realize how much I enjoy teaching. I believe that any child can meet his or her potential if he or she is given proper direct approach. I am also a mother of fourteen-year-old, eight-year-old, and one-year-old. These diversified children age groups allow me to have a clear understanding of educational system. I make every effort to provide children with opportunities to excel. As University of Minnesota Duluth graduate, I excelled in studies of math, physics, logic, critical thinking, and accounting. I earned two degrees: Bachelor of Accounting and Associate of Arts. I received a high excellence grade in math and physics courses and was preselected by math instructors to tutor any math course through Calculus I and to grade Calculus I and Math for Elementary School Teachers.

My prior teaching experiences have allowed me to refine my own role as an educator and provided me an opportunity to try and evaluate a variety of teaching methods. My ultimate goal in the classroom is to develop a sense of excitement and curiosity in students so that their yearning for knowledge will compel them to actively pursue answers to their own questions. I am an experienced and gifted educator and have held several teaching appointments in scientific disciplines. My proficient as an educator is demonstrated by my ability to effectively teach a wide range of subject material, and further reflected by the positive reviews of my former students. In addition, I have experience teaching in a variety of classroom settings, which range from interacting with students on an individual basis during office hours to coordinating and instructing a virtual laboratory course consisting of o

I tend to teach things in a visual way. Drawing pictures, diagrams and using visual aides are the best ways I have witnessed to teach kids. I also think a structured reward system is HUGE in motivating kids to succeed. You need to find out what motivates your kid (money, toys, etc) and set up a system where he/she can earn these rewards through academic success. I am currently a medical student at the University of Minnesota Medical School Duluth. Before I started medical school I worked as a tutor for six years with two teenage boys with autism. Under the six years of my tutoring, both of these "disabled" kids were completely mainstreamed and even taking some AP and challenge classes. I believe that any kid can learn if they are taught in a way that is fun and structured. I tutored these kids in Math, Science, Social Studies and English. I also spent a semester as a Teaching Assistant i

I have a History BSE degree with a certification in Social Science from Minot State University. I think that the combination of these degrees me a very unique prospective in History, Accounting and especially Economics. My patience has been the reason many of my employers pick me to train in the new employees. I have a lot of patience for people that are learning a new subject and my general demeanor is easy going. I teach through asking questions to bring the learner to the point of the lesson. I am able to breakdown harder lessons into smaller, more manageable lessons. Teachers complimented me on helping other students to learn the material.

I am patient and easygoing. I have two special needs children and my experience with them helps me to be understanding. I try to empbhasize learning the formulas that we use to solvbe the problems. If the students can understand how to solve a problem, then its just a matter of plugging the numbers in and their chance for success greatly improves. I have substitute taught for two years in the Superior, WI school district. Most of that has been at the HS and MS levels. I have also substituted at Marshall School as well as ISD 709 in Duluth as a special ed paraprofessional. My experience there is principally at Morgan Park MS in the autism classroom. I have successfully tutored two students in Algebra, one is now a certified teacher in the state of Minnesota.
