Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Little Falls, MN

Flexible hours and adjusting to student's preferences. More than 5 years teaching experience. started tutoring before college, and I have since tutored students ages three-adult in Russian, TOEFL Reading, Writing, and Verbal, Essay Writing, ESL, Study Skills, and more. In my observation, languages and writing skills are poorly taught in many schools, leaving students frustrated and unprepared for further learning. The improvement I see in my students, however, is immensely rewarding. With a little guidance, everyone has the ability not only to boost their test scores, but also to set themselves up for a lifetime of confident communicating.

I told him to bring his book over and I would help him. He was content to pass the class with a "D". I told him we would shoot for an "A". He passed the class with a "B". Visual, verbal

Every individual is unique and I believe that the different teaching methods capture the different learning styles so all have a place in my classes. Whatever the subject is, every student must have an opportunity to express themselves in one way or another and a teacher must be nothing more than a guide, to assess each class and find what the best way to teach is and emphasize on it, so that all students can learn to love the Russian language and culture as much as I do. I have both Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Russian Philology from the University of Sofia in Bulgaria.I have worked as a Substitute Teacher at the Russian School in Sofia to students from grades 5th through 12th. During my years as a university student, I interned as a translator at a professional translation agency and worked as a teacher in various school offering Russian.

I have expertise in writing, literature, and grammar. When I was an English teacher I taught English 7 - 12. During those years I taught a total of 21 Shakespearean plays to my five classes. I taught middle school English, American Literature, English Literature, and Advanced Placement courses. I used to teach ACT and SAT prep at Sylvan Learning Center. I love teaching and kids. I always separate the behavior from the child. The little kids that I tutor at the Boys and Girls Club love me! I am just really good at what I do. When I was teaching, I had a stellar reputation with my students and the community. When students would come back to me from college, they would tell me how easy their college English courses were after having me in cla

I will ask a student some questions to find out what they know about the subject. I listen carefully for clues to potential obstacles the student is facing. How the student feels about the subject is affected by perception of difficulty and personal ability, and by perception of importance. I want the student to gain a sense of accomplishment as early as possible in order to establish self-motivation. I work to establish in the student a base of knowledge or experience, and I teach the student how to use that as a springboard for learning further material and solving puzzles or resolving questions. Keeping the student aware of the larger context for the material is a constant habit as well. I worked with the Minnesota Literacy Council tutoring adult learners in basic math and reading skills. I attempted multiple approaches with each person until we found one that allowed the learner to m

As a Notre Dame graduate, I have always valued education. Having graduated with two degrees in computer science and psychology, I entered the workforce immediately following college and recently took a leave of absence to spend some time with my children. They have both entered elementary school, which is affording me the opportunity to seek part-time work outside of the home. Professionally speaking I have been responsible for numerous internal and external communications at work. Personally, I am an avid reader and welcome the opportunity to assist others in this area. As a mother of two, I understand not only the importance of learning to read but the process involved. Each child has a different learning style and speed, and as a tutor it is important to be agile - teaching to individual needs. I believe in allowing children to learn through discovery, while providing guidance a

The position obviously requires excellent written communications skills. Having recently completed an AAS degree in Information Systems Management, with a focus in Network Administration and Network Security/Computer Forensics, one of the comments frequently received from my instructors was in reference to my technical writing skills. The recent AAS degree required extensive submission of APA-style formatted academic papers, so I have a high comfort level and significant experience base in that area. I have always felt that my written communications skills were a very marketable asset, and I am hoping that your firm will find that to be true. I have a concrete-sequential learning style, and am very aware of the need for practice and repetition to develop and perfect skill acquisition. Stereotypically low proficiency in writing capabilities in many students is due to the fact that ma

As a graduate from the University of San Diego with a Bachelor of Arts in sociology I have gained knowledge and expertise in communicating with people, presenting information, and expressing myself in papers, essays and reports. Following the completion of my degree I had the opportunity to become a baseball coach where I fully utilized my communication skills in my attempt to enlighten the players. I enjoy working with children and believe I have the qualites such as patience, perseverance, and desire to help all types of students succeed. I believe with guidance and a positive attitude children are able to accomplish what they set out to accomplish. My ability to communicate well and stay positive is important for a child's growth and I strive to make a difference in their lives.

I have work for various customer service companies which has brought out my natural strength of handling human relationships. Which could prove beneficial when interacting with customers. I believe that everyone learns in a different way so I approach teaching with a very adaptable style that adjusts to the person or people I am teaching. I love to find interesting and new ways to share information, and I find it very fullfilling to know that when I am finished teaching I have increased the opportunities for another person to succeed.
