American History Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Kirkland, AZ

For my BA I decided in my Senior Year that I wanted to get a Masters Degree in Education so I switched my major last minute from Elementary Education with Emphasis in sciences and General Education to a understanding of how people learn. I have tutored friends and family in understanding a variety of subjects. Student success is a top priority of my mission and I will be receiving my Masters of Education in May. Teaching students is a passion and an art. I approach each situation by trying to understand what stress factors are experienced by the students, as well as how they need to be approached to learn. Some students need to have a direct approach, others need to try on their own and then step by step correct their mistakes to both build up confidence for doing well and understand where they went wrong. I strive to make sure the student understands the process and not just memorizes t

I have spent much of my time as an undergraduate mentoring underclassmen at ASU, not just to better understand their economics and political science classes, but also how to be a better, well-rounded students.

In high school I was able to tutor students in all subjects ranging from English to Math to Musical Studies. Furthering my education at Trinity University in San Antonio, TX really opened my eyes and mind to wider ranges of educational foundations.

I believe that there is no substitute for individual instruction and that all students benefit from receiving one-on-one feedback from an instructor. I am friendly, patient, laid back, but also dedicated to helping others achieve their best. I love to find ways to make the learning process fun and/or unique, as my experience has taught me that this greatly assists in retention of the lession. Finally I am optimistic and believe that expressing a positive attitude and encouraging others to adopt positive attitudes greatly improves the learning process. I have a BA in History and an MS in Library and Information Studies, which provided me with study/research skills and knowledge of history and ancient literature.

At this point in my professional career, I currently do not have any experience teaching in a formal classroom environment. However, my experience does extend into performance education, as I have three years experience working for the Denver Museum of Nature and Science in which I increased participation of general visitor and school audiences in gallery programs by performing in educational demonstrations and facilitating hands-on experiences. This included presentations in astronomy, biology and earth sciences. I find that students have their own unique style of learning. I also believe that by establishing a solid set of study skills while catering to individual techniques of the student, the learning process can grow and thrive. Therefore, I would combine my training in theatre and performance to make learning an enjoyable process. I have a very kind and patient disposition wh
