Piano Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Luna Pier, MI

I graduated from Lourdes College in December of 2009. I was a tutor for OHIOReads from 2003-2005. I have also tutored for Jonas Education Project, LLC. for a year, helping students improve skills in reading and math as well as helping with other homework. I had a long term substitute job at Shoreland Elementary working with grades K-5 on strengthening reading and math skills. Education is a very important matter to me and always has been. Since first grade, I have wanted to be an educator and have always strived to achieve the greatest things that I could. I believe that it is vital to a student’s learning that the student should be pushed within their comfort level, to show themselves that they are capable of achieving great things. Even when we think we aren’t gaining anything from what we are doing there is a part that we keep with us. Everything is a learning experience if treated

As a graduate of Bowling Green State University's Master of Education program, I have always had a passion for working with students in both a school and counseling setting. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Sociology, which enabled me gain employment as a Crisis Hotline Phone Attendant and a Behavioral Specialist in a Children's Home for troubled and at risk youth. In addition to completing the Masters program, I also earned my school counseling license. My school counseling internship gave me the opportunity to teach students with a variety of diffent learning styles. It is important to stay creative in the classroom. I recognize that people learn differently and no one way is right. I love working with children and adolescents. I am confident in my abilities to effectively teach and make a positive impact on students lives. I think that if only one person is able t

As a foster parent, I tutored our first child as he progressed through kindergarten and the first grade. His previous school experience was lacking at best, and he had little confidence in his scholastic ability. I was able to pinpoint his natural aptitude--mathematics--and use it to help not only boost his self-esteem regarding academics, but also to tailor my approach to his other subjects as well. Since math is very much tied to logic, using logical constructs to aid him in his critical thinking proved fruitful in showing him how to solve problems regarding tasks such as alphabetization, grammar, and spelling, among others. Each individual has a unique approach to critical thinking, and using that approach is the best way for that person to learn. I make every attempt to identify a person's perspective so as to shape my teaching for that person in the best possible way. Whether s

I love teaching and working with people of any age that I can help both academically and otherwise. I love the one on one relationship that is developed through private teaching and tutoring.

I value certain aspects of teaching methodology not necessarily emphasized in previous generations. I view teaching as a highly dynamic process. In regards to my own views of teaching, I think learning must be interesting and fun. A teacher will not only be a guide on the path to a better understanding of difficult concepts, he will also be a motivator to stimulate open minds. Finally, I believe that knowledge is a right for all. As a teacher, I will be on the front line accomplishing what I feel society needs most: a more educated workforce and students more prepared for their professional careers At the present time I am working at the University of Michigan as a Research Lab Specialist Lead. Beside research this position enables me to interact with students and teach them the biologic basic skills. I am challenged to be creative, nurturing and most of all, patient. During my Ph.

My teaching style is very flexible to accommodate different needs and understandings. I first probe to find inadequacies in the student’s knowledge, then present the material in an easy to understand manner primarily focusing on the student’s weak areas. My patience and easy going attitude greatly help tutoring sessions because the student does not feel reprimanded, but rather encouraged through the frustration and mistakes to achieve a greater understanding. My inspiration for tutoring/teaching is pride in my student: there is no greater joy than seeing him/her succeed. I provided tutoring services in high school and college, thus gained much valuable experience. As such, the most popular question I received during university was "Why are you not an engineering major?" Through earning four BBA degrees in various areas of Accounting/Finance/IT in 3 years, I learned my area of excell

I was inspired to pursue mathematics-related work by my eighth grade algebra teacher. An honors math student in high school and college, I decided to pursue a career where I could utilize my analytical and quantitative skills: finance. I have taught finance and math and the middle school and college levels. I have also taught music (piano and singing) to people of all ages. I love to teach -- it is extremely rewarding to work with students and see them grasp new knowledge. I work with students to find a way of understanding material that fits their style of learning. I am unendingly patient and flexible. I am sure that, with effort, all students can learn.

During college I spent a lot of time volunteering with youth. With a BA in psychology, I have learned to be very calm and patient when working with students. I spent 15 years overseas teaching English Conversation. However, I truly enjoy math. During my years of babysitting I assisted children with different homework. I also spent the summer of 2005 working with the Derek Coleman Hoops Festival in which I had to tutor in both math and reading. I love love love teaching. While teaching I try to be energetic and fun. I try to learn and understand the children's learning style in order to teach them most effectively. I am most satisfied in my teaching when my children truly understand what has been taught. Whether using candy or sports, I think everyone can learn what they need to know by relating it to something they already love.

I am interested in the success of each student. When teaching reading I would research the very best system of teaching. Each individaul reader is in need of the proper method to help with any difficulties that he or she is having. I would identify these problems and then find the most accurate way to reach that particular person. When teaching the reading I would use extra resources, such as drawings or poetry ro help the younger student to relate. With the teenager I would try to find reading materials that relate to their interests. I have experience teaching private piano and also teaching in the classroom. I have taught music to students of all ages for the past 15 years. During this time I was able to gain experience teaching choir as well as music theory. While teaching private piano I taught beginning students and intermediate levels of students. While recertifying for t
