Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Keytesville, MO

I intensively studied English Literature at the University of California, Berkeley (whose Literature Program is rated 2nd in the U.S., only behind Yale) and graduated with honors, summa cum laude in 2003. In my final year earning a Bachelor's degree, I completed an honors thesis (entitled "Erotism and Death in Italian Postmodern Literature and Film") for which I received an "A." Throughout my studies, I took a broad range of classes and, consequently, have experience writing for a wide range of subjects (including Art History, Shakespeare, Literature of the 15th Century, Philosophy, Ethnic Studies, Post-Modern Literature, Film, Sociology of Law, etc.). Additionally, I tutored my peers throughout my four years at Berkeley and, in my final year, earned the prestigious "Tutor of the Year" award from the Student Learning & Tutoring Center. Since graduating, I have continued to expand my w

I like interacting with the students. I find it pleasurable to know the student. This type of interaction helps to create a custom teaching style for each student. I will often ask questions of the questions asked of me by the student because often times the student already knows the answer in one form or another form. This type teaching helps link already known ideas to new ideas.

I have tutored GED students in math for most of the last ten years. Most of the tutoring was in a classroom, but some of it was private tutoring. Also I have tutored junior high students in Algebra 1 for two years. I have tutored fifth grade students in math for two years. Many students have indicated that they thought I explained concepts well. Also for two years I taught as a teaching assistant in the General Biology labs at the University of Missouri in Columbia. Now it is October, 2020. I have now done 4 years of tutoring at a local Columbia community college. Most of it has been in math, college algebra, and pre-calculus.

I have plenty of experience helping siblings and fellow classmates with their schoolwork. I have experience tutoring one student in college algebra.

Having taught in the elementary and clear up through 8th grade, I am aware of different learning styles and attempt to do what I can to use a variety of teaching strategies. I feel I can attempt to find the math learning gaps with a student and go forward with them enhancing their math skills. I have 31 + yrs of teaching experience, retired in 2015. I taught 3rd grade, and 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th grade math. I am presently tutoring math at NCMC in Trenton, MO in Intermediate Algebra and College Algebra. I also have done some HISET teaching and Upward Bound. My current maximum hrs of 550 hrs of teaching from the Retirement System keeps me from doing the latter two because I am mostly focusing on NCMC tutoring. I am clearly interested in doing some private math tutoring.

I make use of and and all available tools to help teach. I am easily adaptive and can find field expedient methods useful and successful when necessary. I am generously patient and prefer to teach from the ground up, disallowing missed information or misunderstanding. I like to put my students at ease and make the atmosphere enjoyable, interesting, and comfortable. Through my experiences I never heard complaint from any student. Many sought me out personally, preferring my methods. Treating others as humans, not as cattle or dollar signs. I enjoy teaching and sharing what I have to offer.

I have always enjoyed working with children and have learned throughout the years, that all children learn differently. I have used various teaching methods as I encounter each child's learning ability. I am willing to learn and try new things, as I have realized that there are always new methods of learning. I am patient, professional, considerate, and understanding. My goal when working with children is to make them feel confident in their attempts. Failures are a learning experience that help lead to great accomplishments when given alternatives for change and improvement. I want to be a positive inspiration in how they learn. I want to be the door to new beginning or at least better horizons when it comes to learning. I have been working with children since I graduated from high school. I was a teachers assistant for the hearing impaired for 4 years and did some tutoring on th

I prefer a relaxed relaltionship with students regardless of their age. I do not try to force anything, rather comfortably explain things on a level that can be understood by the student. I try to have fun with the subject, and make it interesting on the student's level of understanding/experience. I realize some students may not be comfortable in a remedial situation, and try to encourage participation in a non-threatening manner. Earned degree 1966-Have traveled multiple times in Europe where I have successfully used the French language in French speaking and non-French speaking areas. Have tutored for two years through two different services. I very much enjoy helping others to learn another language, and have fun with it. I am also qualified to tutor basic math and reading.

As soon as it was a possibility, I integrated more advanced math courses into my schoolwork. I recently completed my BS in Mathematical Sciences at Westminster College. Since 7th grade, friends ordinarily looked to me for assistance with homework in the math subjects in which they struggled and I often excelled. In addition to helping my fellow students, I completed the high school A+ program, requiring 50 hours of unpaid tutoring. I reached this goal spending one year tutoring a 2nd grade class in their general studies and the other year with a 4th grade class. Now that I have graduated college and no longer have to focus as much on my own studies, I am ready to fully devote myself to the academics of others. Nothing brings me more happiness that accomplishing a difficult task. I really enjoy seeing what I have overcome and the finished product of hard work and fortitude. Through tutor
