My comments on tutoring American History : Have completed 7 courses on American History/Government

I believe that a student should have the time to figure things out on their own, but with guidance from their tutor or teacher. I think I should provide a student with all the tools they need, and then through example I will teach a student to figure things out for themselves. There is no other way that I know of to quickly build the confidence of a student and the belief in one's self, than to teach a student how to figure out problems on their own. It is a very uplifting and life changing experience for a student to finally have confidence in self. My role is to encourage, guide, and correct when they may be going in the wrong direction while learning.

I have a degree in Early Childhool however, I have taught Biology for 9th and 10th graders in a private school. My husband, being prior military kept us moving so I have been a substitute for many years. I also taught my son until the 4th grade and he is now attending private school.
I believe that there are 3 types of learners: 1.Oral : learn by hearing 2.Visual : learn by seeing 3.Kinesthetic: learn by hearing, seeing and using their hands The Oral learner is a “teacher’s pet” because they are the students that will listen in class, barely take notes and do quite well in school. The Visual learner must “look on” as a teacher reads, not taking notes but to follow along in a book. The Kinesthetic learner usually has to listen, take notes, read along but will also tap their foot or a pencil.These types of “distractions” actually help a kinesthetic learner.

I enjoy assisting and helping students to achieve their desired goals in life. I have been a mentor tutor for sixteen years and I get great satisfaction watching students learn and attain their goals and achievements. I also enjoy motivating children to pursue their dreams and never give up on any subject and study hard as well. I have a patient, easy going personality with children and I always stress to them to do their best. Education is the key for children at all ages and I always encourage them to always push themselves to be the best. I can proudly say that I have made a tremendous difference in many children lives.
