Computer Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Londonderry, OH

down-to-earth, kind/agreeable, with an occasional twist of humor I have professionally tutored Math and English as an employee of Ohio University, in a private junior-high and high-school academy, and on an individual basis. I taught a semester of Elementary French at Ohio University in Athens. I am always willing to tutor any subject, but my greatest academic strength lie in language learning. English has long been my strongest subject, and I am fluent in French as well (please see the comments in my subject listing). I am also a long-time musician and singer-songwriter and would gladly provide guitar lessons.

I am presently working as a substitute teacher. I am certified to teach mathematics in 7th to 12th grades. I have recently passed the Praxis II tests to teach science in 7th to 12th grades. I teach almost every day and I usually teach math or science classes. Previously I worked as an engineer. During this time I mentored and trained new engineers. I became interested in teaching while I was working at Delphi Automotive. I trained my own staff while I was there. I have chosen to be a teacher because I believe I can make learning fun for my students. I like to relate subjects to each other so that students can see how everything is actually intertwined. I like to use direct instruction, cooperative learning, peer coaching, manipulatives, simulations, and technology. I believe that teachers need to use a variety of methods to facilitate learning. I believe that with my experience

I have always felt strongly drawn to education, particularly in the field of literacy. I grew up as a child who loved to read, and I love to pass that on to others. After receiving my degree in English Literature, I became a teacher's aide at a small Montessori school in Springfield, Ohio. I taught my students reading for concepts and spelling in a small group setting, never more than four at a time. Occasionally, I gave one on one sessions, and had book clubs twice weekly for the students. Although I moved on from teaching in the Montessori setting, I would like to pursue tutoring and working with students one on one. I strive to make lessons fun and relevant to the student's personal experience. I don't believe that people remember information they find irrelevant or of no use to them, so I feel that by tailoring the lesson to the student, I can reach people more effectively. A s

I believe all children can learn. Every child has a different way of learning. When you put a child in the right environment conducive to their learning style they comprehend the material. My goal is to find every child’s learning style and incorporated it into our tutoring sessions. I believe learning should be hands on and engaging. I like to make the learning sessions relaxing and enjoyable. I am very patient and caring. If a child does not understand the material by the way I am teaching it, I change my style. My overall goal is to improve the students’ comprehension. I strongly believe in the constructivism theory of teaching. Within this theory I include active learning and exploration in my teaching. I have a strong desire to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Natural Resources. This degree has helped me understand many areas

I am strong believer in making learning enjoyable, purposeful (i.e., objective oriented), and relevant to students. First and foremost I believe in making learning enjoyable; by instilling a genuine respect for knowledge, and a genuine passion and love for learning in those I teach - because when students enjoy learning, and or what they are doing, the education process proceeds with much greater enthusiasm, success, and in general, also flows much more smoothly. I also aim to make learning purposeful, or goal and or objective oriented. By setting obtainable learning objectives, and providing ongoing feedback and guidance students, in a structured way, I am able to assist them to recognize and to chart their progress, and to take pride in their success and accomplishments - while enabling them (and myself) to meet (and or exceed) state, curriculum, and or program / te

My teaching style is casual and hands-on. I start with a discussion of the subject matter from a big picture perspective, to underscore the significance of the issue from an overall business management perspective. I move on to a discussion of definitions and fundamental concepts. I tend to communicate graphically, and enjoy drawing diagrams and charts. Next, I would move into an example illustrating the concept using very simple numbers. Finally, I would use actual problems or assignments from a textbook to ensure accurate application of the definitions and concepts that have been learned. I am patient with the learner. I enjoy the satisfaction of helping the learner achieve a "breakthrough" learning experience. I have worked in Accounting and Finance management roles in large corporations for over 20 years. I have supervised, directly or indirectly, groups as large as 90 indivi
