A Little Bit About Me...

All through high school I was told that I would grow up to become a teachers. My mentors always believed that I had the strong teaching quality in me. I began tutoring my peers and was successful in helping a failing student graduate on time! Since high school I attended college and graduated with honors. I am now working at a Preschool/Daycare and enjoy working with the younger children knowing that I am shaping their educational experience. I am going back to school so that I can become an elementary teacher!

I am open to different styles of teaching if it is found that one is preferable to another depending on the situation.
I taught undergraduates at St Cloud State University for one year from 2011-2012. I currently work in the Social Work department at the university in research analysis. I have a bachelors degree in sociology with a minor in psychology and am writing my thesis for completion of my masters in social responsibility with an emphasis in sociology.

I'll explain it the way you need me to - gchang327@gmail.com

I'm currently a student at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota and I've covered many subjects in my 15 years of education. I've learned many of them well enough to teach them to my younger sister, who has ensured I review every subject two years after I complete it, rather than forget it forever. I have also helped many of my classmates understand various concepts as we learned them, which allowed me to improve my own understanding and my ability to explain things in ways that differed from the ways that didn't work coming from teachers.
I specialize in understanding individual challenges and struggles and adapting my teaching and providing clarifying examples. My explanations are thorough and enhanced by my focus on listening to people.

Writing Skills is one of my top subjects! I regularly produce and edit technical documents, but also have written hundreds of paid creative and instructional pieces.

I received my B.S. degree in Biology, and am knowledgeable about many sub-disciplines, including life sciences (plants/animals), genetics, evolution, and anatomy. I am generally able to explain difficult biological concepts in a more conversational way. I've worked with high school youth in the past (approx. 2 years experience) in a crew structure teaching job skills (resume writing, interviewing, etc.) and basic biological/ecological principles. I have worked with family and friends to teach basic personal finance and resume-writing tips to help them achieve great results. I am primarily an environmental consultant, and I routinely use MS Office programs to analyze, organize, and present data in easy-to-understand ways. I've taught several co-workers, family members, and friends how to use these programs effectively, and shown them helpful tips to make it easier.

Although I have recently graduated with a degree in business, I am interested in pursuing a career involving people. My previous employment was a sales position that was very customer-oriented. I also have 3 years of experience helping children by teaching swimming lessons. Assisting my 15-year-old sister with her school work is also a regular activity.
I believe in a teaching style that reflects a student's learning style. Whether they learn best by hearing, seeing, or doing it is important to cater to the student. My teaching style works around this philosphy and tends to be a combination of all 3 styles.

I understand that each student is an individual, and I like to get to know him/her as a person. The more I am able to connect with the student, the more successful we will be in achieving academic success! My teaching style is adaptable to the student. Some students need help focusing, extra practice, a boost in confidence or the subject explained in a different way for comprehension. The beauty of tutoring is you are able tailor the material and style to the individual learning ability of the student, unlike in the classroom where you must serve the entire group.
I grew up in a household that valued education and creative learning. As a result, I have always been driven to do my very best in all subject areas. I officially started tutoring in 2002, at Southwest Minnesota State University. My initial subjects were Algebra and Finite Math. Since then, I have tutor in a number of sub ... read more

Establishing a friendship with a student can make the learning process go much better. Defining strengths and weakness can allow for appropriately allocation of time to promote more efficient studying. Kinetic learning would be used to provide a visual demonstration of the material for better understanding.
I am a current Master student at MNSU in Mankato and I received my Bachelors of Science in Biology in 2009. Currently I am planning a thesis and developing my skills in grant writing. I'm a very patient and personable guy. I will make sure that you have all your questions answered and also help you develop efficient study techniques.

I enjoy working with students of all types of learning styles. I have worked as a Writing Lab tutor in the past and now I am enthusiastic to teach students about a subject I have over 15 years of experience working with daily. I would enjoy teaching students the basics of accounting and bookkeeping and give them an overview of the accounting cycle. I believe that I am personable, easy-going, and patient person. Building a strong foundation in accounting can be beneficial to all students who might start a business, need to run a household, or who might choose accounting as a career. I would enjoy teaching children about a subject that I strongly feel is important to her/his education.

A Little Bit About Me...

After beginning my tutoring experience as a volunteer with Metro North Adult Basic Education in 2003, I have continued to tutor students at various grade levels in many different subjects. I find it to be a tremendously rewarding experience. In addition to volunteering with Metro North to assist adults in preparing for their GED exams, I have worked as a paid tutor for Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes, Hennepin County Library and Club Z In-Home Tutoring. My position with Lindamood-Bell involved instructing students ages 5-16, primarily in the areas of reading and speech development. With Hennepin County Library, I was part of the library's first Teens, Tech, Youth and Learning program.
Because I have had the opportunity to work with students of many different ages and abilities, I have learned that there is no "right" way to teach/tutor. As a tutor I have had to adjust my teac ... read more

I attended the University of North Dakota for 4 years and in that time received a BA in Anthropology which has provided me the experience and knowledge of helping people in holistic ways. I now attend graduate school to obtain an MS in Applied Anthropology. Just about every semester I have written a 7-15 page research paper and have written several other essays, reports, and assignments in general. I have also done research for domestic violence organizations and helped teach college-level introduction courses.
Teaching is a wonderful experience! My teaching style is laid-back, I'd say. I like having conversations in order to determine how someone learns. I think people learn best when discussing the material and really think it out before they start creating something. Guiding a student down the path of their own learning style is important because they will need those skills in t ... read more
