My comments on tutoring Praxis Exam : Scores: Math (Secondary): 200/200 Chemistry: 194/200 Teaching and Learning (Secondary): 193/200

Problem-based learning (taking topics of interest to a students and using core concepts of that subject to solve real-world problems); example: using %change equations to determine how a portfolio is doing in terms of profit/loss. Integrated math/science/technology approach to solving problems Manipulative-based instruction (online: NLVM site; offline: virtual plus actual object use) RTIm (Using repeated instruction over time if necessary to determine response to intervention)
I have 10 years of teaching experience with students in math and chemistry.

My comments on tutoring Praxis Exam : Praxis Exam Math is one of the cool areas I help people.

I first get to know the student's problem and start from there
Have taught lower-level undergraduate math classes for 3 years; I have worked as a tutor for close to 2 years at the MATH center of Ohio University. I have worked as a grader for professors and graded the classes I taught myself, hence I am familiar with most of the errors students commit which wage war against their grades

I truly love the field of education. I recognize that all students learn in different ways. I know certain teaching methods work for some students and not others. It is important to teach in several different styles.
I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in Elementary Education. During my undergraduate studies, I was a substitute teacher for Delaware Community Schools in Muncie, IN. I have also tutored at Huntington Learning Center. I am currently working towards earning my Master's in Early Childhood Education.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. The primary focus of my language instruction would be grammar and pronunciation--which is extremely important, because together they build the foundations of any language learning. I will also use games, songs, cultural notes, and stories making fun of the words in the target language to color up my class sessions. And for those who are still young at heart--you are never too old to learn a new language.
I have a Master's Degree in Foreign and Second Language Education(TESOL--Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from the Ohio State University, and a Bachelor's Degree in French Language and Literature from Capital University. I am fluent in English and Mandarin, and proficient in French. I have had eight years of experience teaching English to students from different linguistic backgrounds (Mandarin, Japanese, and Po ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Being a current student myself, I can appreciate the hardships and struggles of education. I feel that you must always level with your students, no matter what the age. The students are the ones who must lead the class. However, we as educators have a duty to guide and to nourish this idea. We must be leaders who encourage a positive and productive learning environment, while also maintaining an enjoyable experience. I believe in a split between communicative and explicit teaching. Students are given input through examples and other meaningful activities. They then are encouraged to attempt their own output through group work, homework, or discussion. At this point, students are prepared to solidify their learning with charts, graphs, mnemonic devices, and/or questions/answer sessions. Finally, new material is segued into the review, restarting the learning cycle. This overlap ... read more

My methods are rather traditional. I beleive that there is no way around hard work. I will explain the problems in many different ways in order for the student to grasp a particular concept. I also am a irm believer that the more problems a student does, the better they become in doing the material.
Taught AP, Honors and Regent level Biology and Honors Physics at Preston High School in NY Most of my students recieved Mastery or above on state exams at the end of the year.Most of my students scored above 620 on the SAT biology subject exam. Tutored throughout my college years the subjects: Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy and Physiology and Microbiology.
