I scored a 99 on my ASVAB before enlisting. I can also offer prep for the DLAB, as well as just offer basic advice about joining. I was enlisted from 2002-2008 in the US Navy and worked as an Arabic Linguist and Intel Analyst at a joint service base. From 2008-2011 I work for the Department of the Army in the same capacity but as a contract civilian. I'm a visual learner, so my teaching style is the same, but I can adapt. I'm a big fan of the "See One, Do One, Teach One" approach. So in group settings I will teach a concept, give a quiz on the concept, and then have the students teach the concept back to the group. After graduating High School early (Jan 2001) I did two semester at the University of Akron majoring in Political Science. After the events of 9/11 I enlisted in the US Navy (Jan 2002). I was trained at the prestigious Defense Language Institute (DLI) in Monterey CA, with foll

I began tutoring as a high school student for the Wayne State University Math Corps. I tutored students entering the 7th and 8th grade in math topics ranging from basic math to calculus. I continued tutoring at the University of Michigan in the Sweetland Writing Center, helping college students draft and revise essays for a variety of subjects. I also spent a summer in Honduras teaching English to elementary students ranging from grade K-5. In this setting I was in command of my own classroom of students. I am now a recent graducate of the University of Michigan where I earned a bachelor's degree in Secondary Education with certification in Spanish and English. I currently teach ACT prep to college prep students. My teaching philosophy revolves around individual student needs. I understand that all students learn differently and sometimes teaching to "the middle" that is common in many e

My undergraduate years at Princeton University instilled in me a passion for learning and a personal commitment to academic excellence. Most of my adult work life has been focused on coaching individuals to overcome handicaps and maximize their potential as successful, competent learners. I have had 12 years teaching experience at the high school and college levels. This experience has included individual tutoring as well as classroom teaching. Through training experiences in School Psychology, I have had much experience in counseling and tutoring students who have learning disabilities. Currently, I teach at Cleveland State University in Psychology. Learning is always easier when it is fun and interesting. In any given teaching situation I look for ways to add zest to learning. At the outset of tutoring I do an assessment of where students are currently achieving in a specific subject

In highschool I was in Advanced Placement Honors Classes such as Calculus and Science. I have earned two degrees, BA in Managment and MBA in Business Administration, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of business such as finance, marketing, econonmics, and organizational behavior but I have always enjo

The methods of teaching I was instructed when I obtained my Bachelor in Education at the University of Akron Ohio, from 1989-1991, was the following Integrated, Whole language approach and Montessori. The method we were instructed to use in the Akron city school system was Integrated which uses basic and whole language approach language Arts. These integrated units allow us the opportunity to make sure children are learning relevant information and applying that knowledge to real life scenarios. Language Arts is what I use in all my teachings and lesson plans. My experiences as an educator have been numerous and continuous throughout my life.

As a graduate student, I worked as an Academic Adviser for student-athletes at The University of Akron. I have worked tutoring at-risk students in a cooperative environment. My duties included supervising and leading study sessions, helping students plan and organize time effectively, as well as implementing study and test taking strategies. I like working with young people to challenge them to accomplish something they did not think was possible. I prefer to ask them questions and see what they can come up with. From there, I use my experiences and expertise to guide them through the learning process. I believe that all people have profound capabilities and potential if they just have the proper guidance and motivation.

I have loved teaching and still keep in touch with many of my former students. In fact, I have taught many of their children! I seem to end up helping students with more than just their homework. I have always had a talent for understanding that not everyone "gets it the first time." I had much trouble with science myself. When I was responsible for hiring teachers, I usually wasn't a fan of those with 4.0 averages. I was afraid they wouldn't have the patience to answer the same question 10 times! I always try many methods (visual, auditory, tactile) until we find the right one for my students. I consider it my personal challenge to be able to get that "aha" out of a young person. During my 35-year of teaching, I spent 30 years teaching everything from Alg. 1, Geometry, Alg. 2, Trig., Statistics. I was also a math department chair for 5+ years. In that capacity I wrote c
