I use the Orton- Gilingham multi sensory approach.

ORTON-Gilingham multi sensory approach. Math without words until the concept is mastered. Using lots of manipulatives including video games, that teach concepts.
I Have worked for the Davis County School district for 12 years. The last few years I have been working intervention for students who are not performing at grade level. I have learned that not all kids can learn the way they are taught in school. My 8 year old is dyslexic. I Have studied the Orton-Gilingham multisensory approach to reading and spelling. I have also learned to engage children in activities that are fun and creative. I will not be doing the same teaching style as there school.

I will help with Musical Studies, Graphic Design, and Art.

Throughout high school, I had trouble trying to figure out what I wanted to do when I graduated. I took many classes that ranged from Weight Training to Biology. I took many Art classes in which I excelled at. I then took some Computer Technology classes and I loved it. So I figured I would put the two together and took Graphic Design classes. I loved it. I am very competent in using all sorts of Graphic Design programs. I got my first guitar around 8 years ago and just picked it up and learned it. I have been learning ever since. I personally, have taught many people the basics of guitar and gave them the tools to excel in music.

Give Real life experience a try

Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style.
Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back.

A Little Bit About Me...

Graduated from University of Phoenix with my B.A. in psychology, currently enrolled in the Masters of special education program from the University of Phoenix. Worked with children from different ages since 1999.Have worked in private and charter school settings. Have tutored students in all subjects. Currently working with children with special needs, such as autism, emotional disorders, behavior disorders, specific learning disabilities and bi-polar.
I enjoy teaching children, working with them to find their talents, and strengths. All children have the ability to learn, each child learns differently so it is important to find out each child's learning style so that learning is made easier for them. I have worked with special needs children, for three years. I believe that children learn through using their different senses. I am patient, easy going and have the students best int ... read more

I have yet to complete my senior year of studies at the University but I will be done by Spring 2011. I am working towards my first Bachelors Degree, BS in Physics and will continue with school after until I get my MS in Chemical Engineering. Physics and Chemistry have always come easy to me and I know that because of this I can help others understand these sometimes tougher subjects easier.
My teaching style might be a bit unorthodox but it is something I have acquired from past teachers and tutors. I have not helped or tutored in a while but I believe I have an easy and simple approach to it. When it comes to physics and chemistry, the math can be learned over night, the concepts are most critical. You can't read a problem and interpret the question word for word. You have to find a way to relate it to real life and what you see everyday. A spinning disk becomes a truck tire, a s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I completed my bachelors of science in biology from Mesa State College, after which I went on to receive my masters degree in evolutionary biology from The University of Texas at Arlington. I then pursued a Ph.D from Brigham Young University. Although I completed all my coursework and my comprehensive exams and was approximately 80% done with my dissertation, I opted to leave the program to pursue my passion of teaching. I have been teaching general biology and anatomy and physiology, as well as zoology labs, at both UVSC and SLCC ever since. For the last two years I have also been working toward licensure to teach secondary school here in Utah.
My approach to teaching is an interactive one. Although I teach at the college level which tends to be more of a lecture environment, I try to bring in current events and real life examples of science in action and get a dialogue initi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently finished a double-major in college and maintained a GPA of 3.75. I took many education courses throughout my college career in obtaining my degree in Childrens' Studies. I have helped tutor in biology, earth science, social studies, English, algebra, reading, and Spanish.
I absolutely love working with kids and teens. I believe that all children want to experience success, but each might define "success" a little bit differently. I am willing to take the time to find out what motivates each individual student and go the extra mile to help them. I am a firm believer in experiential education and try to relate what a student is learning in class to something they love, engaging and involving them in the process as much as possible. As a tutor, I do my best to make things fun while also making progress.

A Little Bit About Me...

I want to help students question to find meaning in life. I want to help students learn which questions to ask so that their answers are founded in principle and not merely reactions against traditional authority or thought. The art of learning is a skilled art. The task of leading another to discovery is a weighty one. I take the time of my students seriously. I would not waste their time any more than I wish mine to be wasted. Passion drives my life and my teaching. I feel the literature. I feel language. I recognize the need to individualize the presentation to each student’s experiences and understandings if s/he is to discover the joy of learning.
As I finish a master’s degree in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in training and development, I realize that I want to continue my formal educational while sharing my love of learning. My prior formal education includes ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very passionate about seeing someone suddenly gain understanding about a specific concept. I strive to understand first the learning style of any student and create new ways to connect to them via that learning style. I emphasize communication and understanding questions and doubts of the student to maximize learning and retention, and I make learning fun and relevant. I am very patient and easy to relate to, and I try to be a friend before anything else; I am a tutor, they already have a teacher, and I specialize in supplementing what they know with what they need in addition. My goal is to help each student not only master their current assignments, but learn key concepts that will change their lives.
For the last two years I have enjoyed working at the Brigham Young University -Hawaii Reading Writing Center as a tutor and center manager. My passion has been to help others l ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of a small private University in Virginia with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Multimedia Design. I have taken ample Mathematics classes since my graduation in 2005 and have spent in all about seven years tutoring and teaching both kids and adults in Mathematics, Science and English. I understand Mathematics as a second language and excel in Science and English because of my knack for memorization. I am a people person and get along with kids very easily. I have been married for almost nine years and hope to someday have kids of my own.
I love working with children and kids of all ages. My teaching methods include asking many questions to encourage children to reach for the answer(s) as well as to make the subjects as fun and as interesting as possible. I have the ability to reach the child on their level. I always give praise for effort as well as for trying and encou ... read more

A teacher should treat their students as consumers. As consumers those students need to have their needs and expectations met. Every student learns differently and expects the instructor to be the expert in the subject matter. Being that expert the instructor should have and show a passion for the subject that makes the students want to know more. Each student is a valuable member of the class and as such has valuable experience and opinions that can enrich the class. The instructor should provide ample opportunity for student questions and discussion. The educator’s role goes beyond delivering the curriculum. The instructor should make the learning relevant to real life experiences. The instructor should provide differentiated instruction, timely feedback, and should aid in the students’ development academically and professionally. Students should be aspired to be quality teachers a ... read more
