Having learned to read at a very early age, my love of reading has been carried through my whole life. I have tried to instill this love of reading and books into all young people I have come into contact with - neices and nephews as well as grandchildren. My aim in tutoring is to not only teach students to read well, but to instill in them as well a love for reading.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I work in a school now and I can help show you how to sign the words for this subject.

I can break it down so that it will be as easy for anyone to understand. I also sometimes like to try and connect the sign with the meaning so that it is easy for any person to remember.
I have been a professional Interpreter for over 12 years and will continue to do so until I am not needed anymore. I have worked in numerous places as an Interpreter such as Hospitals, court houses, Dr. offices, schools, and etc. I develop a relationship with all my clients that keep them requesting me. I take time to care about what's going on and stay focused and intrigued with everything that's going on.

I feel the need for tutoring is the need to simply obtain information in a form that is different from the one presented in the classroom. As a tutor, I work to break things down into their constituent pieces and explain each of these pieces in turn. This is a more time-intensive method of instruction, of course, as the breaking down of information is totally dependent on the way it must be done for it to make sense to the student. Tutoring allows this method to be used, as one-on-one, this method is just as quick as the standard schoolroom methods.
As a holder of a BS in Chemistry, I have a very strong grasp of science and mathematics, as well as a passion for the written word. I have volunteer experience tutoring my fellow students at Eastwood High School, out of which came two years' of summer tutoring for one of the individuals I helped while volunteering.

More About This Tutor...

During my undergraduate at Marquette University, I worked as a teaching assistant for General Anatomy and Advanced Anatomy. I not only taught the students, but tutored them privately as well. I was also a tutor for physiology at Marquette. Both of these experiences have strengthened my ability to relay knowledge to another person, as well as solidify my science knowledge. I now work at Owens community college teaching Anatomy and Physiology. I have extensive basic and advanced science knowledge and truly enjoy teaching.
As stated above, I truly enjoy teaching; this applies to adults as well as children. Not only am I patient and easy to work with, I also am passionate about making learning fun and painless. I enjoy learning as much as I enjoy teaching; therefore, I attempt to surround my students with a relaxed and fun teaching environment while still getting all the information to ... read more

I love working with children. I believe that every child has the potential to learn, and as a tutor I work to find which way the child learns best, whether through sports or music, or other various activities. I am extremely patitent and understanding, and I am eager to help children. I strive to help children better themselves.
As a Psychology student, I understand the importance of learning. I tutored middle and high school aged children in all subject areas, particularly in math. As I have been tutoring, I have seen that math and science are not children's strong subjects and I work to have the students understand them more.

I am passionate about the importance of literature and writing in the lives of all learners. I easily recognize the importance of effective communication skills for future generations, and am passionate about helping my students reach their full potential in regards to reading and writing. In my teaching, I strive for a student-centered, inquiry-based approach, in which the student leads his or her own learning, and I help facilitate the learning. This sort of learning brings out a student's naturally inquisitive nature, and makes learning more applicable to their own interests and motivation.

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

My goal is that students learn the fundamental content of the courses I teach. But beyond that, I hope to foster critical thinking, facilitate the acquisition of life-long learning skills, prepare students to function effectively in an information economy, and develop problem-solving strategies for doing so.
