The goal of my approach is to enable students to have a level of ownership in learning concepts and ideas. Merely teaching the idea is not enough, and that "Oh, I see" moment must occur to embed the idea for long-term growth. I enjoy relating the ideas and facts to real world examples that almost anyone can grasp. For a period of five years, I offered tutoring services to students at the University of Chapel Hill, Duke University, and North Carolina State University. My ability comes from experience...I was not entirely prepared for college when I started, and had to work much harder to successfully complete my degrees. I believe that this has given me a great insight into what students really need, especially as schools continue to do a less than perfect job of preparing students for the future.

My teaching style draws from my ability to illustrate and lay out concepts in a systematic way. Step by step learning and instruction is crucial accompanied with dedication and passion. I am committed to teaching and mentoring students until they can fully comprehend their subject matter. My age allows me to be able to understand contemporary problems in schooling as well as being able to recognize new ways in which students are being taught and tested. The majority of my strengths emphasize research and writing in a broad number of disciplines including the humanities (art, english, history, etc.). Furthermore, I have an extensive background in quantitative statistics. I am currently in the final stages of writing a research paper to receive my Masters degree in Sociology from DePaul University in Chicago. My liberal arts degree has afforded me a wide range of experience in education a

I greatly enjoy teaching and working with students, from children to adults. I am patient and understanding and believe in positive reinforcement to motivate students. My goal is to get to know and understand each student and tailor an individual education plan based on each student's learning style. I am a professional with a B.S. degree and with 18 years experience in the health science field. I also have extensive experience in various areas of business. In addition, I am proficient in many different computer programs, which has allowed me to train and mentor people in use of various computer software. In the past year I have direct experience leading classes and teaching students. I am comfortable writing reports and essays and have excellent knowledge of English and grammar.

I take the necessary time to learn the behavior and learning ability of the child in order to customize a teaching style that will be most beneficial. I believe that the most effective type of relationship between a teacher and a student is friendship to reduce any anxieties that may otherwise hinder the child’s progress. I am calm, well mannered, kind and devoted to the success of others. Teachers should be firm but not intimidating to the child. The learning environment should be safe, stress free and comfortable and above all positive. I have a strong belief that since children will be leading future generations then they need the proper skills to be able to solve tomorrow’s problems. Throughout my high school career I have been devoted to academic success of my fellow classmates as well as my self. I continued this attitude in the accomplishment of achieving a BS degree in biology. A

I am currently pursuing my BS degree in business management and finance. I have completed all of my math requirements and passed calculus with an "A" average. I home school my 9 year old daughter and really enjoy watching her learn and grow. I can teach many different styles to suit different learning styles. I truly believe in the mastery technique. My 9 year old has ADD and severe dyslexia so i have to employ many different styles to meet her needs. Being a great teacher is all about knowing and understanding your student and how they learn.

I love teaching and sharing my love of science with others. Children learn in many different ways; some through reading, some through diagrams, and some through repetition. I enjoy trying to figure out how each child learns and I am willing to try as many different techniques as possible. I try to relate to my student to see how they learn best. I have learned through personal experience that learning comes easiest to a student if it is fun and taught in an engaging manner; through a video, a funny acronym, or relation to a personal experience or something that interests the student. I am patient, easy going, and understanding. I am currently a student at Wright State University; I will have a Bachelor’s degree in biology at the end of summer 2010. I have taken several classes in Cell biology, Molecular biology, Animal biology and Plant biology. I have also had a year of anatomy a

I am fervently earnest in pursuing a career assisting students in their learning. With experience working at the elementary through high school levels, I have a diverse background with much to offer. Throughout my years of experience, I have had the opportunity to work with students from a variety of economic and social background. I have instructed students whose first language was Spanish, Russian, or American Sign Language. In each of those situations, I have had to utilize a diversity of alternative and creative approaches to instruction for multiple subjects and topics. My most recent experiences have shown me that encouragement is central is assisting the students in their learning. Providing them with the confidence in their own comprehension and understanding is key to striking the fires of a passion for life-long learning. To aid the student in grasping the material, I loo

In my 6 years of teaching experience I’ve come to find out that there is no such thing as a “stupid question.” Each child or adult has a specific way of learning according to their own character. That’s the reason some are faster to learn mathematical concepts while others are faster in literary concepts. I believe in going slow and asking my students to explain what they’ve learned in their own words. If they can do this easily it means they have mastered the concepts. I usually encourage pre-reading before tutoring sessions. A student who has read the chapter ahead will absorb information more easily than one who has not read ahead. I obtained a high honors degree (Magna Cum Laude) in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry in 2005. Due to an outstanding GPA (3.74/4.00), I began to teach even as an undergraduate student. I was hired by the Athletics Department to help my fellow students obt

I believe that all children are unique and gifted in some way. I truly prefer to work with them one-on-one. Each child learns in a manner that is a challege to meet and I welcome this challenge and often find that I learn as much from them as they might from me. Children love to learn and I love to provide that opportunity in as many varied and intersting ways as I can. I have taught 4 and 5th grade in the Texas School Systems for 24 years. I worked as a retired teacher in the Adams Wells Special Services Coop for 3 years (2006-2009)as a teacher's aide with special needs students both in the elementary and high school levels. Those children varied from autistic, cerebal palsy, Attention Deficit Disorders with and without Hyperactivity. I really enjoyed working with these students to help them with their reading, math, and overall achievement. I am currently employed as a substitute te

Throughout my undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois, I developed a passion for teaching and helping others achieve the academic success that I enjoyed. I tutored during each of my final three years, mostly in the various science classes that I took. During the past year, I have been teaching the Physics section of the MCAT for the Princeton Review, a nationwide test prep company. I have also tutored for a couple different companies, ranging from Geometry and Algebra to Organic Chemistry. I have always felt that tutoring should offer a much more laid-back approach at getting concepts across to students. This is a chance to learn material in an environment that doesn't bear the pressures and stresses of the classroom and achieving a certain grade. Also as opposed to a classroom, I feel that the student should have the floor. This is their time to ask questions and talk

I believe students learn better when the instructor makes it clear where a topic falls within the over-arching themes of the class. Students are then better able place new techniques and knowledge in the context of whatever discipline or field is being taught. Classroom lectures and discussion should always be complemented by homework, tests, and quizzes. In fact it is in homework that the bulk of learning occurs. Just as professional athletes endlessly practice the most simple and boring parts of their game, so also the best students practice and perfect what they are taught. My degree in physics has equipped me with mathematical, scientific and analytical knowledge. This enables me to comfortably tutor students in many topics within math and science fields. My first teaching experience took place at Camp Powhatan, a summer camp for Boy Scouts, where I was an instructor for two summers.
