A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience ranging from housework to mechanical to clerical. I like to help individuals who truly want the help. I help my kids with their own homework and understand how difficult it maybe for other parents to help their children after working long hours. Adults wanting to relearn any subjects will be treated respectfully, as well as children of any age.
Learning through real-life examples is the best way to use what needs to be learned.

I received a coaching minor and have experience with basketball, tennis, and soccer. I am also a very fun person.

A Little Bit About Me...

I take the time to assess each students learning style and tailor the material to their individuality. This makes learning fun and memorable. I am patient, easy-going, and able to quickly adjust to changing moods of students. Hands-on learning is my favorite way to teach.
As a student of the College of Science, I excel both at detail in quantifiable information , and the ability to translate professional speak into everyday language. I excel in English, Science, and Psychology. I have been tutoring for five years and homeschool my 8-year-old stepdaughter.

I received my college degree in English from Willamette University, and I have a great deal of experience with the written word. I have been an editor of the Oregon voters’ pamphlet, co-editor of the college newspaper at Chemeketa Community College and an intern in communications at Willamette University. I have been a writing tutor at both Chemeketa and Willamette and a tutor in the ABE/GED program at Chemeketa and at a community college in Bethel, Alaska. I taught English as a Foreign Language to both high school and university students while in the Peace Corps in Uzbekistan.
I have been a writing tutor for many years, and my teaching style is relaxed, positive and designed to meet the specific needs of the student with whom I am working.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love helping people achieve dreams and goals. I practice what I preach and throughout my life I had to overcome obstacles to reach personal goals that I set for my self. I love being around children and considerate to every learning style. I know from experience that the best way to teach children is to fine tune the teaching style to the child’s learning style. This will help him connect each new curriculum and learn to use it in everyday life.
My passion for numbers and formulas has taken me on an incredible journey. I graduated from Western Oregon University in 2007 with a BS in Business. From there I was able to have the opportunity to work as a Financial Accountant for the next 2.5 years. This has sharpened every area of my skill set and has allowed me to work in various atmospheres involving teamwork and critical thinking. My math and advanced formula skills were recognized ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My background includes an undergraduate degree in History and International Studies as well as a Master's degree in Education. With this background, I have taught US History, World History, and Government on all levels from college prep to AP. In addition, I have been involved in an after school program for low achievers designed to improve classroom performance and prevent dropouts. My experience teaching AP World History has given me a strong background in teaching and developing verbal and written skills.
Teaching strategies which have worked for me in the classroom include cooperative learning groups that encourage social interaction, as well as, jigsaw groups. The use of PowerPoint presentations to illustrate the material utilizes a technology component which I find useful. Strategies for special needs students would include making sure to see if they are a visual, auditory, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would say that my style is one of direction. Helping students find answers, teaching them how to research for the answers and developing paths of choices to determine which one to take and determining the outcome of that choice or the alternatives. I feel better challenging them to use their thinking skills, their cognitive processing skills & decision making skills. Every child, I believe, learns differently and a good tutor or teacher, takes the time to find that out for the student(s) they are working with. Success is important for growth, independence and adulthood.
I have over 20 years experience in training individuals in materials related to their employment & career preparation. I've also worked as a CASA worker in Idaho and had to prepare reports for the courts/judges review to determine placement of at risk cildren. I was a career information counselor for Marsing Hi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teachings students one-on-one is the love of my life. I see progress in this format that is outstanding. Students can make several levels of progress in a short period of time. Providing a positive, constructive and enthusiastic environment is foundational to the success of the student. The teacher also must show by their actions that they are very interested in the success of the student. With positive interventions, there will be a positive difference in the life of the tutored child.
The biggest motivation of my teaching career is to hold a high standard of expectation. I have a MA in Special Education, and a BA in Business Administration. I am adding to my teaching certificate an additional endorsement in middle level and high school math. I have home schooled all four of my children. Two of my children have BA degrees and another is currently in college. I teach an afterschool ... read more

I have a Masters degree in anthropology (with minors in zoology and philosophy) and a Bachelors degree in zoology (with a chemistry minor) from Oregon State University. I have tutored high school students in math, science, reading, and writing for the Upward Bound program, was a teaching assistant in college biology laboratory and biological anthropology courses at OSU, and later a teacher of bioanthropology at Klamath Community College, OSU (online and on campus) and Western Oregon University. I was laid off in December 2009 due to budget cuts, but continue to present lectures and write scientific literature.

A Little Bit About Me...

The voyage of deepening a child’s enthusiasm to write and read well is so delightful and satisfying! This revelation didn’t come in my writing courses in high school or college but when I taught my four children to read and write. Now that they’re all in college or graduated from college, I once again became available for tutoring. Several college and university students can attest that with my tutoring their writing has become stronger and their grades have risen. Meanwhile, I continued structured writing in the form of manuals, educational brochures and Power Point presentations for doctor offices.
Every child has a window of time when learning to write and read is at its peak. I’ve observed this can begin as early as three or four years of age. Yet the child who discovers his/her fascination with language at the age of eight is no less gifted. So I believe patiently leading chil ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy learning and try to pass along some of my enthusiasm to my students. I will work with the student to find the best methods for us to approach the material so he or she will have the greatest success. I believe that creating a structure assists in the learning process, but the structure may be different for different people. This is not to say that I impose a rigid schedule or formula to the tutoring sessions, but I do work to create of flow for the the study session which will consistently show the student his or her progress each time.
After returning to college to get my teaching certificate I taught 5th grade for one year. I then taught at a high school in Salinas, California for four years. As an elementary teacher I taught all subjects except science. I taught various history and social studies classes to the high school students including World History, honors U. ... read more

I graduated with a BA from Willamette University with a major in history and minors in math and Spanish. I then attended Willamette's MAT program where I earned a Masters in Education with endorsements to teach middle and high school mathematics, social studies and ESOL. I have taught at Woodburn High School for 6 years now in the mathematics department. I have taught a range of mathematical levels: from pre-algebra through Advanced Placement Statistics. Throughout college and my teaching career I have tutored a variety of students between the ages of 5 to adult in subjects such as reading, writing, math, study skills, and SAT preparation.
Helping students be successful is the most important aspect of teaching, in my opinion. Each student is unique in his or her learning style. A teacher's job is to find the way in which a student learns best and to encourage them to think o ... read more

I benefited from the liberal arts education I received from the University of Puget Sound, which offered a diverse selection of classes and an exploratory environment in which to pursue my studies. For two years, I studied Chemistry and Biology while also taking classes in the Humanities. I eventually majored in International Political Economy and obtained minors in Spanish and Latin American Studies. During my undergraduate years, I studied in Oaxaca, Mexico and received a grant for summer research. Upon graduation I spent a year doing anthropology research in Peru on a Fulbright grant, while also becoming fluent in Spanish and learning a third language, Quechua.
I am here to help students improve in specific subjects and excel academically as a whole. My greatest attributes are patience, perseverance, and hard-work. I always arrive on time and I take work and school seriously. I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always seen teaching as a matter of reigniting a natural curiosity which all students have, and directing it toward an academic subject. My priority as a tutor is to help students feel confident about their own ability to master the material. For each student this requires a different approach, so I try various methods of teaching and of working on tasks with each student, until we find one that works for him or her. For all of my students, I break tasks up into smaller, more manageable components, and I bring a relaxed but focused atmosphere to our sessions.
Getting my Ph.D. in English has given me the ability to communicate clearly both verbally and in writing. During the last seven years I have been tutoring students at all grade levels, from elementary school through high school, as well as teaching classes in English at several universities. I have tutored children in t ... read more

I am a strong believer in interrelating knowledge in diverse areas and illuminating its applications to real life in the belief that students are more motivated to learn when the relevance of that learning is clear to them. Students must not simply believe that they have acquired knowledge, but that they have gained understanding if the knowledge is to make any real difference in their lives. I believe it is important, especially with children, to respect the intelligence of the student, and to that end I employ a great deal of Socratic method. I seek to broaden the horizons of all my students, and impart a deeper appreciation for the world and the cosmos that we inhabit through every subject.
I hold BAs in History and Modern Languages (German/French), and have done graduate work in Theology and French Translation. This background has given me a broad understanding across the huma ... read more
