Drawing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Marylhurst, OR

I have mentored and facilitated the learning experience of over a thousand students. I have been teaching for 20+ years. I prefer to work with small groups or one-on-one because I believe that the student's education is maximized in this type of learning platform. I love to teach about art, art techniques, art history and sewing. I have a good ability to tutor in history and social science related topics since these areas are always a component in art and culture.

I can assist in basic drawing skills: Perspective, Composition, depth, figure drawing, etc. I am positive, honest and will give a lot of encouragement. I want those who I am tutoring to feel rewarded while learning, I want to help my "tutorees" to enjoy learning, and build confidence. Recently began tutoring elementary level math and reading, and am loving it. I have found that I thoroughly enjoy working with the children, and find it very rewarding, and enriching. I am looking to expand my experience, develop new techniques and improve on them while helping people learn, with a genuine interest in their success.

I have substitute taught for 2 years in all grades. I must be flexible, creative and outgoing while constantly adapting to new surroundings. I excel at drawing, writing and reading. I have my BA in art. I studied printmaking at Pacific Northwest College of Art and finished my degree at PSU. I have my master's degree in early childhood and elementary education. If you or your child needs help in any of these areas, please call! I look forward to hearing from you. Everyone learns in different ways so it's important to me that I get to know the students first. That way I can differentiate the lessons for each student. I have also learned that students are more engaged when it's a subject matter that they care about. Of course it's not realistic that this will always be the case. Sometimes you have to learn things that you are not interested in, but approaching these subjects from the way i

I think teaching styles should differ based on the preferred learning style of the student. The teaching style should play on the strengths and preferences of that particular student. That being said, I foster a student-centered approach to learning. This approach encourages the student play an equal, active role in the learning process, rather than a passive role. A cooperative approach is important so the student can feel like he or she is an active and capable participant in learning the material. I also believe in leading by example and allowing the student to use me as a resource for reviewing their work. I have tutored children off and on since I was in high school. More recently, my time has been spent volunteering with The Giving Tree, where I tutored inner-city children after school and helped organize activities (museums, zoo, etc.) on the weekends. I am currently in the final

I am a patient, creative person, with an ever-present sense of humor. I have a strong work ethic, and consider academic success as both a great necessity and a great gift in a child’s life. My goal is to make learning fun, as well as successful. Once a student feels success, the fun then comes naturally. I try to build confidence and self-esteem in children through academic success, as I believe they are irrefutably linked. My hope is to be the teacher that is remembered, the one who made a positive academic and personal impression. Ultimately, I hope to help your child achieve his or her academic goals, to meet your parental expectations, and to share a love of learning. As a tutor, I offer a variety of experience and skills, including two bachelor degrees, BA in English and BA in French. My advanced skills are in the language and language arts areas, but I am qualified to t

My belief system says that ALL students need to be set up for success, as success breeds success. Throughout my teaching experience, I have found that students need a different model of learning from the 'one-size-fits-all' delivery system, which requires that all children learn the same thing at the same time regardless of what their individual needs are. The best way to describe my approach to teaching would be 'complex instruction', which falls under the umbrella of 'differentiated instruction'. Complex instruction is a strategy that was developed to address the various ranges of academic abilities while being culturally and linguistically heterogeneous. Equity of learning opportunity for all students is the objective of this teaching strategy. I have been very passionate about teaching struggling students, particularly in the area of reading. From 2000-2004, I taught struggling 8th

I love to watch a child develop a sense of accomplishment while meeting personal goals. I believe it is important to provide children with opportunities to explore and discover their strengths. I believe that an attentive educator can observe and identify the areas which can be strengthened, so that children can achieve academic and personal success. My goal is to provide children with a creative, secure and nurturing environment in which they are encouraged to become life-long learners by exploring, making mistakes and discovering. Over the past 15 years, I have taught in both special education and standard classrooms for children ages 5-9, I have tutored and served as a private teacher for children ages 5-17, and have homeschooled my own children. I am very interested in understanding how the brain works to process information and how that understanding can be used to empower child

I created and followed specific lesson plans to increase student retention and develop self-esteem. As an experienced teacher I am dedicated to the success of each individual student.

I strongly believe that children are our most precious asset and our hope for the future. I am passionate about helping children learn and grow through education and extracurricular activities. I love teaching children and helping them to first realize their abilities and then to reach their potential. Many children are not able to even begin to develop their abilities because they do not have healthy surroundings. I want to help create a positive learning atmosphere so each child's learning experience is positive. I believe in working with each child as a whole person, who has unique dreams and talents. Through education I am able to open up their minds and let them explore the vastness of the world in which we live. I want to be one of the people who make a difference through the lives of children. I too love learning and am dedicated to be a life-long learner myself so that I c

I have worked with children in multiple environments for over seven years. In my interactions with each child, I have customized the way I communicate and work with them to best suit their individual learning styles and needs. I love working with all children and believe that they are all capable and intelligent. I also believe that children retain more if they feel confident in their surroundings, if they are actually enjoying themselves, and if they are encouraged by a positive person. My goal when working with children is to provide these assets to learning so they will feel good about themselves and assist them in excelling in their goals and education. Through a prior job at a school for children with Learning Disabilities, I saw first hand how essential it is for a child to be in a positive learning environment and to receive tools that help them "learn how to learn".

After I received my BA in French, with a minor in Teaching English as a Second Language, I worked for the Institute of Reading Development to teach reading comprehension, skills, and appreciation. In the fall of 2005, I moved to France for two years where I taught English in elementary schools in Montauban, as well as in a middle school and high school in Mirande. Upon returning to the United States, I taught French for two years for Miami-Dade County Public Schools at Ponce de Leon Middle School. I love being able to make learning fun and exciting. I believe the key to being able to acquire a second language, develop reading skills, or improve artistic abilities, is to find the reasons why it's interesting to the individual student. Art, literature, and French language are my greatest passions. I am patient, flexible, and enthusiastic. My hope is that I can encourage my students to be e
