Over the course of my career, I have taught at every grade level from four year old Head Start students to more than 11 years at a community college. I have a special understanding of non-traditional students and their learning challenges. I have taught English, Literature, Composition, Business Communications, writing and a variety of other subjects.

In addition, I have worked as a technical writer for a variety of businesses, writing everything from grants, proposals, training manuals, presentations and speeches.
I love teaching and working with a variety of students. My teaching style is easy going and flexible because I believe each student learns best in their own way. There are no “cookie cutter” students or lesson plans. I feel the most important thing I can give a student is ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I thoroughly love teaching as I come from a line of teachers myself. I have demonstrated that learning happens on multiple levels depending on what level one is working on. In my experience, I have learned that understanding is a process which involves listening, question and answer, humility, multiple approaches (including mixed media, visual and audio stimulus, humor, etc.), and a general openness to learn. Patience is key, and to learn is not just to memorize--it is to understand. Through the learning of the knowledge of relationships and the inter-working of things is understanding of subject material attained. We are all children, and as children we strive to break the barriers that close our minds. A good teacher knows how to ferret out these barriers that prevent our learning and open the doors to discovery and thought. It is with this knowledge that every student I have ta ... read more

I received a BS degree in chemistry and a minor in applied biology. My original thought was to attend medical school (I even took the MCAT), but decided to persue a PhD in inorganic chemistry instead. I have extensive experience in working with students. I worked as an organic chemistry lab assistant as an undergraduate. During graudate school, I taught both general and analytical chemistry. I am currently teaching chemistry classes at Terra State Community College.
I believe that anyone can understand the subject matter if it is presnted to them in a way that fits their unique learning style. I can demonstrate several ways to learn the same material, and have learned through my years of teaching experience how to quickly identify which method is best understood by an individual. I am patient and understanding, and I relate well to students. I have always received excellent ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have grown up knowing that teaching is a fundamental need for our lives. Both my parents are teachers, and I have always been good at explaining things to others. As I pursued my career choices one of the most important goals for me has been to give others the opportunities at learning that I have enjoyed. I firmly believe that not all students can be taught the same way, and it is my job to help them discover not only what works for their learning needs, but to be creative in how I present material to bring the best out in each student. When a student discovers why learning is important is gives them a since of confidence in thier future that can't be taken away. I simply love to teach!

I am a graduate of Ohio University with a bachelor's degree in English. In addition to studying English I also studied fine arts (painting, drawing, art history) and Spanish. I have tutored students from ages 5-18 in all subjects including English (reading and grammar), math, social studies, and science. My reading and grammar skills are helpful in all subjects because I am able to take apart sentences and paragraphs so that it is easier for students to understand. With my English background I am very helpful with reading assignments and book reports. I can help students with writing and editing papers as well as recognizing plot, themes, and motifs in stories, novels, and poems.
I love teaching students of all ages and I recognize that most students do not get the help they need during the school day, which is why it is important for them to get the help they need outside of clas ... read more

I have always been a tutor of sorts. I love to teach kids because of the sparkle they get in their eyes when they finally understand what they are being taught. Each child have a different learning style so I try to work with them to see what works for them. I have worked with kids who have ADD and the gifted. The greatest thing I can teach is that we can teach to create intelligence, but wisdom comes from using all that you know.
I started tutoring in 7th grade back in 1976. I have been tutoring my own kids for over 14 years. I have been a Scout leader for over 9 years. I worked with boys ages 5 to 18 years of age. I have brought 2 learning disabled teens into my home to help them graduate High School. Both have gone on to be Certified Welders.
