Learning needs to be enjoyable. When students enjoy what they are learning, that means that they are engaged in what they are learning. When students are engaged, they can better grasp the concepts being taught. I make sure to get to know my student's interests so that I can relate what they are learning to situations that happen in their own lives. I have an Associates in Arts and Teaching degree from Leeward Community College on O'ahu. While completing my associates degree, I was a leader for an after school program for the Leeward YMCA where I worked with students in grades K-5. Lastly, I was a paraprofessional tutor for Iroquois Point Elementary School where I shadowed an autistic child from his general education classroom to his SPED classroom.

At this moment, I am a volunteer English/English as a Second Language Tutor at our community library. I tutor two elementary students in Reading and Writing two times a week. The younger student has a hard time focusing. I tried variety of things to help her. When we meet, I ask her first how was her day so I would know if she is tired or how long her attention span would be. After I try to ask her to read a small book that she picks. Then as she reads I try to assess her difficulty. I write down words she can’t read. When she is done, I ask her to write sentences or a story with the difficult words. Then she draws about it. I read the story back to her. I try to involve all her senses from visual to verbal in her learning process. The other student has a hard time in comprehension. I try to read the book with her and ask her questions about it. I get her excited. Most of the books she r

I like to make my tutoring sessions productive by encouraging students to work hard to complete the taste in order to receive a reward in the form of a game or something they enjoy doing. I am very thorough in correcting assignments and make sure they fully understand the concept they are working on. I am very helpful in stimulating critical thinking for creative writing assignments.

I always been a teacher who encourages hands-on learning. In math especially it is important to use manipulatives to see concepts from a different viewpoint. In the classroom I typically integrated varied learning styles and subjects to keep learning fun and achieve better comprehension. I have always aimed to teach the whole child according to their needs and nurturing their self concept. I have been an elementary and middle school teacher for over 20 years in public and private schools.I have taught many summer sessions in art and science and Hawaiian nature study.Students really enjoy learning with me and they improve their skills greatly as well as their outlook on learning and how much fun it can be.

I graduated Summa Cum Laude from every degree I have. I tutored students maths/sciences for 8 years, and I also taught High School English for one year. I worked as a national park ranger for 14 years, in which I gave daily multiple professional talks on many subjects and also taught children and wrote/gave puppet shows. I also worked for Emory University School of Medicine and Florida Institute of Technology. I counseled homeless veteran drug addicts. I excel with compassionate communication and listening skills. Each student is unique and has their own learning style. It is vital to teach the person according to their unique needs and abilities. I am a compassionate, caring teacher who loves children and also the material. I also believe that a big block to learning is often either confidence or study methods they have been taught in past.

While raising my kids, I came to understand that each child has a unique way of learning. Homeschooling my son gave an opportunity for trial and error during which I discovered an understanding of how students would learn best. My teaching style is based on the Flemings VARK model of learning--Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Tactile/Kinesthetic. I believe that each student has a unique learning style. An auditory learner may be geared towards tapes, lectures and discussions, whereas, a tactile/kinesthetic learner responds to models, movement, and maybe drawing. Once a student's learning style is discovered it will greatly enhance their learning experience. I have a BA in Biology from the University of Hawaii and a certificate in Nurse Aide. My post-graduate include chiropractic medicine and business. I was a First Aid and CPR instructor with American Red Cross and American Heart A

I am currently finishing my first year in my graduate program, MEdT Program (Masters in Education Teaching). I have so far spent 12hrs a week in the classroom for the past year. I have taught several solo lessons a week while at Campbell High School and Ilima Intermediate. I am efficient in one-on-one teaching situations students who need extra attention and assistance. I specialize in Social Studies subjects, but am proficient in secondary level math (Algebra) and some natural science. I enjoy working with young learners very much and would love to tutor outside of the classroom setting. My teaching style is based on an inquiry-based learning method. I do not give students answers. I ask them the right questions to get them to figure out the answer themselves. I also encourage the student to ask the right questions themselves as well. I am very patient and encouraging.

I have had many years of leadership experience. I believe this leadership experience allows me to work well with and lead others. In college, I participated in several cultural clubs on campus. I was the Fundraising Chairperson, Luau Food Chairperson, and eventually the President of the Hawaii-Pacific Islanders Club. My Bachelor of Arts in International Relations comprised of reading and writing-intensive courses that focused on subjects including history and political science. In addition, continuous progress on my 30-page thesis paper required for my major has refined my research and writing skills. While attending St. Francis High School, I assisted teaching reading and music to preschoolers at least two hours a week. Based off my leadership experience, I believe the best way to help others improve in anything is to individualize their needs. In order to do this, it is best to under
