A Little Bit About Me...

I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy. I have worked at a Montessori preschool and am comfortable using hands-on, creative methods for learning. Each student is different and learning approaches need to reflect that. I have worked with sensory-sensitive preschoolers, mentally challenged high school students, and ESL students ranging in age from 3 to 40. Whether they needed to learn how to tie their shoes, write an essay, the parts of an atom, how to use a conjunction, why the slope of a line is important, or how to write their name, I was there to help.

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned a Bachelor of Science from The Ohio State University in 1984. My subjects of passion were math and science and I enjoy working with children who struggle in those areas. I have home schooled my son through the end of 12th grade and he was ready for college freshman classes at age 15. Starting in his second grade year, we were joined by a student who has learning disabilities. He also thrived in the tutorial teaching environment. My desire is to work with children who really desire to learn but need that extra time and encouragement to succeed.
I have experience working with both audio/visual learners and a kinesthetic/tactile learner. The kinesthetic/tactile learner had learning disabilities akin to ADD, but still did very well in the small group environment. I believe that children who want to learn will do so given the proper setting and sufficient time to succeed ... read more

I am interactive and student-centered. I see where the student's strengths lie and build from there. We do homework and tests together, and I move from a coaching role to an observational one, only coaching occasionally as necessary. We work not only on the subject matter, but techniques which improve comprehension, retention, organization and motivation.
I have taught and tutored both children and adults in a wide variety of situations, from job training and test preparation to tutoring for a specific subject. I have taught ESL classes and done individual tutoring, as well as both group and one-on-one instruction in grammar and composition. I have tutored for SAT, ACT, TOEFL, TOEIC, ISEE and entrance exams. I have created my own materials for such tutoring but also use books available commercially.

More About This Tutor...

I began working with children who were diagnosed with autism my first year of college (I did this for 7 years). I felt a sense of accomplishment as I watched them grow as people. I realized through these experiences that I wanted to help people learn and become accomplished. Later, I decided to student teach in graduate school. I taught three different writing courses over three years, including this past year as a part-time instructor. While I enjoyed my time teaching in a college classroom, I found myself making the most headway during conference time. In addition, I also worked as a writing tutor at MU's writing center. I felt like I accomplished more working with students in this way instead of standing by a chalkboard.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is collaborative; everyone brings some gift to the table. I never forget to thank my students for giving me the opportunity to guide them on their journey. I try to make learning like a story. I weave real-life examples that have relevance in the lives of my students, and examples from popular culture. My strength is to be able to break down complex concepts into their smallest parts, reassembling them in a way that makes the concept easy to understand, yet doesn't make the student feel inadequate.
My experience is generally with high school and adult learners and I also am extremely proficient with online learning and designing curriculum for online learning that uses mobile devices and virtual simulations. My doctorate research is in the interplay between real and virtual identity when we go into an online space, making me very adept at teaching anytime, any ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I firmly believe that it is the responsibility of the teacher to find a way to present material so it is understood by the student. Too many schools criticize a child's ability to learn when the child doesn't respond to the school's one method of teaching. I enjoy finding ways to make concepts simple and fun for the child. I love to awaken in my students a fascination for subjects that they believe to be uninteresting or too hard for them.
I am a homeschooling mom of 20 years. I have homeschooled my 6 kids K through 12th grade. Three of my children have graduated my homeschool. Two of those have completed college and one is in her sophomore year. I am still teaching 3 of my kids. Over the years, I have taught every grade and every subject. Most years I have been doing both phonics and physics. Over the past year I have been tutoring kids in math and language arts.

My main goal in teaching is to connect personally with the student in a professional manner which enables mutual respect and trust to be built. This kind of teacher-student relationship allows for the best atmosphere in which a student can learn. My first task as a teacher is to find out how the student is motivated, and then to follow through with motivating the student to reach his or her potential (also requiring appropriate levels of achievement). Of course, good communication with the parent and/or classroom teacher who also has goals for the student who is being tutored is imperative.

More About This Tutor...

I have 4 years of tutoring experience, working with students aged 8, 12, 14, and 34 in the subjects of French and Algebra. I hold two bachelor degrees, in International Politics and French Literature. Additionally I have vast experience in a wide range of subjects including history, government, politics, reading, writing, music, and international relations.
I love learning and sharing that experience with others through tutoring and teaching. I believe in hard work on the part of both the student and the teacher. I also believe in critical thinking and positive reinforcement.
