Assists in a variety of musical areas I believe that every student learns in their own unique way and at their own pace. I try to cater to that thought when teaching and encourage each student to become his or her own teacher. I think it is important to have a strong fundamental base, but music is more than notes and fingerings. The study of music can give one the power to look at life’s problems through a different lens and give a fresh perspective. Now that I am out of school I see more clearly that there is never an ending point to education. All of those years of studying are not just to pass a test or earn a degree. The purpose is to apply the lessons we learn and create the best life possible. To quote the great Willy Wonka, "we are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams." I have taught private flute lessons for 10+ years from beginners to advanced and children

I use a hands-on approach when teaching my students. I believe the only way to master anything is by doing it. I encourage my students to incorporate their ideas, and give me ideas as well, so that I may cater to his/her learning style. I am patient,nurturing, and very understanding that not everyone catches everything the first time,but with patience,diligence, and much practice we can all succeed at any task at hand. For these reasons I do not discourage students from making mistakes, but encourage them to learn from those mistakes, and seize every opportunity. In the end I guarantee that your still will love learning, master his/her subject, and may even be able to tutor others in the same area! Throughout all of my years of schooling, I have always been a high-achieve and always driven myself to exceed expectations. Beginning in high school, I tutored all high school math-which I

I like to teach using all types of aid available. If visual, auditory, and verbal stimulants are present I will do my best to integrate them all. By doing so, each child will be able to use their own learning style to understand the subject matter. I am a very cordial person, however I will not tolerate non-sense from students. I like to make the child feel comfortable while keeping in mind the main objective, to learn. Though I have not had much experience tutoring children, I have served as a Sunday school teacher. I am an intelligent individual who does not mind sharing knowledge with others, particularly children. I obtained a BS from Bennett College in Biology and graduated with a 3.77, which placed me in the number 8 spot in my graduating class. I work well with children because I come from a large family. I have a combined total of 9 nieces and nephews, so understanding kids is so

My teaching style is to lead by example. Being that I am a visual learning I try to work in steps showing them what is expected and them I allow them to slowly work it out themselves based off of what I've done. I've done a lot of teaching to children with Autism and our teaching style varied to fit the way the child was able to learn. I also took Educational Psychology in graduate school and learned the meaning of intentional teaching, which is teaching with the intent of having the student learn what you are teaching. In response to your recently advertised job position, I would like to share with you my experiences working in the related field. I have over five years experience working for a non-profit, child caring institute for DFCS and DJJ children. I have worked directly with the children in managing behaviors and I have worked indirectly in creating individualized treatment plans

As mentioned above, I want to demonstrate to students the real-world applications of scientific and mathematical principles. This will not only help them learn and master the material, but also to understand and appreciate its relevance and usefulness. I also would love to teach guitar to learners from beginner to 10 years of experience. Will teach any style of music, except classical and flamenco guitar are not my specialties. The last five years have seen me working in research and development roles, but teaching math and science has always been a dream of mine and it is time for a career change. Having earned BS and MS degrees in materials engineering, my technical education as well as my career have provided almost daily practice of chemistry, physics, and mathematics. I want to not just teach students something, but also show them how and why it is relevant and useful. Aside from my

As a special education major and history minor, I have learned so much about helping children succeed. I am currently working toward my bachelors degree at Brenau University. This has enabled me to do various field experiences and an internship that deals with children of various ages. I have worked with all subjects from grades K-12. I have a social studies concentration with my major. I enjoy working with all children. I believe that my teaching should be differientiated to fit the learning style of each student I work with. This is because all children learn differently and i have to use which strategy that works best with each particular student. All children can learn and succeed if they were given the opportunity.

I use a differentiated instructional approach that is designed around the student's particular needs. After assessing the students needs and setting targeted goals, I develop a (lesson) plan to meet those targets. For five years, I was professor of World Literature/English Composition at Clark Atlanta University. For two years, I taught Literature/Composition at North Atlanta High School. During this time, I developed a linguistically oriented method of teaching writing that allows students to appreciate and exploit the instructive correlations between the writing and reading processes. Equipped with such knowledge, students developed not only the skill, but also the confidence required for successful writing.

When I was in 7th and 8th grade I participated in America Reads where I helped teach elementary children how to read. In college I assisted with my church youth group and led classes approximately once a month for two years. During 2010 I volunteered with a Kindergarten class. I assisted the students with in-class assignments in writing and math. I hold a bachelors degree in accounting with a minor in vocal performance. I also studied German during this time. I have completed 17.5 semester hours towards a masters degree in liberal studies with a focus in international business and German. I am currently working on my MBA and plan to complete it in December of 2012. I am very flexible in my teaching style and have helped students who learn in very different ways. While I was working with the Reading by the River program I worked with four different students each of which learned in very

As a tutor, I would work with students to meet individualized needs, allowing for adjustment of my style as appropriate. I operate under the assumption that all students are engaged in a lifelong process of learning. I seek to inspire learning through varied teaching formats, including lectures, discussions, reflective and reflexive writing, group exercises, audio/visual resources, and experiential learning methods. I highly value utilization of thoughtful reflection, careful analysis, and critical thinking skills. I strive to inspire students to relate learning beyond academic perimeters, and thus situate concepts within relevant historical contexts and cross-cultural examples. My considerable patience allows students to work through materials at their own paces, allowing for thorough understandings before proceeding to advanced levels. Finally, I communicate clearly and effectivel

My teaching stlye is to know as much about my students as possible. I enjoy working with children and watching them learn. I know with understanding and patience, any child can learn. I believe that when a child is in a receptive environment, she/he will be able to relax and enjoy my open approach to teaching. I know I can make a difference any child's life and they and their family will be happy with the end results. My degree in Speech and Language came after I had been married and had 3 children. I earned a combination degree in Speech and Language and Teaching. My maturity and personal experience enabled me to teach and train children by starting with what the child already know. This approach to learning helps the child's self esteem, and allow the teacher to find out from the child what are his/her fears about learning. Secondly, I have excellent oral and written communicatio
