My comments on tutoring Earth Science : Highly qualified k-8

For 20 years I worked for Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools, as a fifth through 7th Grade classroom teacher. I taught all of the academic subjects in various combinations, sometimes all at once to a self-contained class. The State of Tennessee recognized me as "Highly Qualified" in all subjects, from Kindergarten through 8th Grade. I served on the district's math council for 5 years, helped direct the district's science fair one year, and worked extensively in the field of arts-based curriculum development. I also was trained in the IB curriculum, and implemented it for 10 years.
Constructivist, multi-sensory, inquiry-based.

EXPERT TUTOR-MultiSubject; Home/ONLINE; +WRITING instructor

As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must ... read more

I have spent over 30 years in business and financial consulting. My lifelong passion has been for mathematics and education. I have reached a point in my career where I can focus on giving back of my talents to students through mathematics education. I have minimal formal teaching experience (student teaching and adult education at the college level). But my career has included extensive education and training of adults from diverse skill levels and cultural backgrounds. I am well versed in the real-life application of mathematics in business, finance, and insurance. My mathematics is current and applicable from middle school through most undergraduate college courses, especially statistics.
My teaching style varies with student learning styles. Although drill may be appropriate for some skills, my preference is project or problem based methods that draw on the learner's experience ... read more

At the age of 24 already possessing a bachelor's and master's degree illustrates my efficiency and determination. I have taught English as a second language at the high school level and politcal science at the university level. I am very personable and able to relate to various types and education levels of students. I have tutored in history, english, spanish, italian, social studies, civics, and the arts.
I enjoy enabling students to discover the abilities within themselves. I excel at being able to get students to find answers to their struggles by asking them the right questions, leading them in the right direction instead of doing the work for them. I have an uncanny ability to see the best in all students, patience, understanding, and flexibilty are virtues in tutoring. Each student is unique and needs an individual style of assistance.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have achieved much success in my life and continue to strive for excellence. I have a passion for helping others meet their personal goals, especially children. I have taught on the college level for approximately three years and have assisted babies 0-3 years meet developmental goals. I am available to tutor in psychology, English, grade-high school subjects.
I love experiencing the gratification of seeing the success of those I somehow influenced or assisted. I have assisted students/individuals meet educational and developmental goals ranging in age of 0 to college age. I believe everyone has the ability to learn when they can relate and apply the subject matter to their personal interests and area of specialization. My teaching style is tailored to each student's ability and need.

1998 was the my first tutoring experience, I took time from busy school schedule to tutor students in Math and Science at a low income school near my college. After spending time tutoring students in a variety of subjects I decided to go for an education degree once I finished my undergraduate degree. While working towards my Masters degree I spent a semester working in the Seattle Public school as a substitute teachers aid. Once I finished my Masters degree and teaching certification I received a job as an Earth Science teacher. I taught for one year at that school and then moved to the state of Tennessee. For the past two years I have taught Biology, Physical Science, and Ecology.
I firmly believe that to be an effective teacher you need to make the subject interesting to the students. While teaching I think it is very important to provide examples as to why the subject matter is ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As the daughter of educators, I have been exposed to the education system all my life. As a result of this exposure, I became very interested in tutoring and teaching. I taught for two years as a substitute teacher before attending law school. I previously worked as a substitute teacher with Morrow Elementary in North Lauderdale, Florida where I taught test-taking strategies for the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test. Most recently, I have volunteered with Youth Encouragement services as a tutor.
Based on previous experience I have discovered that the same teaching style does not work for every child. I find that explaining each topic and asking the child question gives a clear indication of their understanding. Based on responses to the questions adjustments may be made to address each child's need.

I focus on cognitive development (Reading, writing, speech, creativity..) as well as social skills to prepare the child. I like to tap into the three most efficient instructional methods which are visual, physical and verbal when working with children. I have used a lot of visual resources in my past curriculum which have been very successful! I'm very attentive to children's behavior and body language and keep them in consideration throughout my interactions with them. I strive to make learning fun !
As a language trainer I am knowledgeable in all-levels of French training and tutoring I've worked professionally for clients of Cartus a global mobility management company. I've also held a position as a Arts and Crafts director and held full responsibility for planning, leading and instructing traditional and multi-cultural Arts & Crafts programs for children, ages 5-15.

My educational phylosophy is to advance student learning in science and mathematics. As a teacher, I create the environmet that promotes student confidence in the student's abilities and instill a sense of competence and a sense of self-worth. I am a constructivist that follows the Tennessee and national standards. All activities construct conceptual and problem-solving skills. I believe students learn science and mathematics effectively with relevant, hands-on experience. I design learning experiences that take into account the different learning styles and each student's knowledge base. I model behavior that demonstrates respect for others and create a climate for a free exchange of ideas.

As a Mad Scientist, I learned how to make learning science fun. I like to spend a session with my students learning their background and their learning style. My students have always appreciated my ability to look at problems and subjects from different angles. I like to use every day metaphors for teaching math problems and also try to teach students how to use a "process of elimination" style. For example, it is easier to identify whether or not an object is a cell phone by picking out one trait that a cell phone has and determining if the object has that trait rather than describing all the traits of the object and then determining if it is a cell phone.

I enjoy working with all ages of students, from kindergarten through adults. My teaching style is based on the individuals I am working with and the curriculum being used. I try to gauge which methods work best for the students I'm working with and and am creative, patient, and flexible. I have good rapport with students and work hard to find ways to help them learn.
After graduating from Seattle Pacific University with a degree in English, I spent a year working as a reading tutor in an elementary school through AmeriCorps (the specific program I worked with was the Washington Reading Corps). Following my year in AmeriCorps I spent nearly 3 years working in the Seattle School District as a substitute instructional assistant. During this time I worked in many of the same schools, providing small group and individual tutoring and educational support. In addition, I earned my T ... read more

After graduating in 1996, I opened my own tutoring service in Dickson, TN. I tutored individuals from public schools and home school in Math, Reading, and several other subjects needed until 2001. At this time I left Dickson and moved to Clarksville, TN and tutored with A+ Math tutoring intil 2006.
Seeing the look and smile on the face of a student that finally grasps a concept, or realizes they have just read on their own for the first time, OH What a Feeling!!! I take each child as their own individual knowing they have their own needs in learning a subject. I teach in several different ways as to ensure the child grasps what they need. I see children today as my future for tomorrow, so helping them and making a difference in their lives will make a difference in mine. I have not forgotten any individual I have helped to this day.
