Desktop Publishing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Las Cruces, NM

I graduated in 1999 from NMSU with a degree in Elem/Spec Education. While attending school, I worked in a group home for troubled teens and at a facility for adults with disabilities. But my desire to teach children led me to tutoring at a private non-profit school for K-12. I worked there two years before starting to work at a facility for troubled youth. I worked there for one term before they closed down, and then started working with treatment foster care children through Mesilla Valley Hospital, a facility for children and adults with mental disorders. Last year I returned to school to get my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education. Recently I retired, but am continuing to work on completing my degree. I have always loved children and work hard to make a difference in their lives. Children are very diverse learners and I believe, as teachers, we need to discover the key to what

That is, I can help them begin to learn and to develop a lifelong practice of learning.

I worked as substitute teacher for the Denver Public Schools during my senior year of university. I have also worked and certified as instructor in the US Army in several fields to include math and science. I enjoy teaching kids and particular the satisfaction that the kid gets when they finally understand the subject. I believe I must make myself fit to the students needs and not the student to my way of teaching, because there are many ways to have a kid understand the subject. Education is the tool that will open the doors of opportunity and will enhance your individual worth.

I ascribe to Gardner's 8 Stages of Intelligence theory, which purports the belief that every student is gifted, intelligent and capable of learning in a manner that conducive to their own unique style.

I believe that teaching is about relationships. If I can cultivate a trust between myself and a student, it creates the right foundation for success. By being real and honest with students and encouraging them to be themselves, I clear the pathway for the best learning to happen. I tap into the prior knowledge of the student, find a confident, secure starting place for them, and then introduce new ways of thinking. Through student-centered methods, I create ways for them to discover and build on the concepts. This builds a cycle of confidence and a love of learning- to motivate the student toward grade-level accomplishments and beyond. I received a BA degree in Liberal Studies and a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential from California State Univ, Chico. My experiences have prepared me well to meet the tutoring needs of each individual student. I have tutored privately since 1999, working

I recently graduated with BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering. While in school I worked as a tutor for 2 years. I tutored college students in mathematics and science. I was one of the few tutors who could tutor higher calculus level math. I received all A’s in differential, integral, vector and differential equations calculus. All lower level calculus classes I completed in high school. I worked for two well known companies as an electrical and design engineer. I worked for Intel Corp. and Garmin AT (producer of GPS systems). My unique experience: great academics in math and engineering, extended experience as a tutor, and hands on engineering experience at Intel and Garmin makes me a well rounded and a knowledgeable tutor. Through my experience as a tutor I learned that each student is different. I strive to recognize that difference and use it to emphasize learning strategies. I
