Earth Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Mc Farland, WI

I hold a bachelors degree in economics from Purdue University. While in school I tutored at the elementary, intermediate, secondary, and university level. I have tutored in a broad range of subjects from elementary phonics to college prep exams such as the ACT and SAT. I guarantee success and/or improvement or your money back. A pre-tutor analysis will be conducted to determine the skill level. Each session will be tailored to fit the student. No two people learn the same, and I understand that.

Very Patient and flexible and tend to search for the method that works best for the student. I always attempt to bring in familiar analogues to help visualize any area of struggle for a particular student. I worked for over 1 year with a firm in Chicagoland called TopRate Tutors. I tutored individuals from 5th grade all the way through adults in continuing education. I guided study sessions for SAT & ACT prep as well. My expertise is certainly in mathematics & physical sciences, however, tutoring grade & high school literature, english, social studies is also a high capability.

I prefer to see what the learning style of the student is and then adapt my teaching style to the student. I was an in-school suspension teacher for two years at Durand High and Middle School, helping students get caught up on their pre-algebra, social studies, science, English and Spanish homework. Previously to becoming a teacher I worked in industry as a project manager or assistant for different companies, using Spanish occasionally. I student taught in 2004 at Hononegah HS, one semester at Auburn High School before being hired at Durand High School. I taught there for four years and took a job in 2008 at Christian Life High School where I am currently employed during the school year.

I have a variety of teaching styles that I use to help students of all abilities achieve. I am skilled in SEI/ELL strategies to help students of other languages. I have also taken classes developed by Ruby Payne which deals with poverty and how to reach hard to reach children. A quote that I have posted on my classroom walls is "Failure is not an option." I am a firm believer that all students can learn and achieve. They just need the right motivation, and encouragement. I am very creative and find new or different ways to teach/demonstrate a concept that students may find difficult to understand. I am very passionate about what I teach and how I teach it! I have worked as a teacher for 10 years. I have a passion for science and math. I have excelled in both areas while in college. I have taught science (Earth Science, Life Science, Physical Science, and Biology). I have also t

Cumulatively, including extended substitute teaching situations, I have taught all grade levels 1-12 in various subjects. I would describe my teaching style as ecclectic. By this I mean that I discern which style or strategy would best accomdodate the needs of the particular child, based on their learning style. Once the child's learning style is distinguished, I would tailor my lessons/tutoring to that particular style. Throughout college, I consistently worked as a tutor or mentor, specifically with minority populations. Upon graduation, I joined Teach for America and taught high school English in rural North Carolina. Since my tenure in TFA, I have taught English to students in Mexico, substitue taught for 2 years at a Waldorf school in La Crosse, WI, and currently tutor and mentor students as I attend graduate school at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

I like to make learning fun for children! I think that all children have the ability to be successful learners and that it is the responsibility of their educators to understand what motivates them and to help them discover how they learn best. That is why it is imperative that educators are creative and be familiar with the multiple intelligences exhibited by different children. I also believe that good tutoring can lead to successful performance in the classroom which can, in turn, improve a student's self confidence and aid in their development of a joy for learning. I earned a B.A. in English from Saint John's University in Minnesota and am working toward my Master's Degree in Education from De Paul University. I have worked as an assistant teacher for three years at the Latin School of Chicago and one year at Collegiate School in New York City. I have also worked as an after-sc

In my Masters in Teaching program we are learning about differentiation and working to find the best vehicle by which to present information to students. For example, if a student has a talent and passion for music, perhaps setting some of their social studies and science materials to song will help them better absorb the information. Also, the best way to create connections in students minds is to have them learn and then create something representing their learning. Perhaps they learn about an era of history and then they act out a scene that may have happened, or they visually represent a science concept. I also am a very organized person with good study habits that I can model for your student and help them put into practice. I am currently in school for my Masters in Teaching. At the completion of my program, I will be certified to teach grades one through eight. I have spent th

There is no better moment that when a child becomes engaged and starts understanding and asking questions. Once a child starts asking questions you know that they are excited about it and want to learn. When teaching my goal is always to get children excited about what they are doing and then proceed from there. All children have different strengths and I try to work from those strengths. I recently graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Engineering. I have taken extensive courses in math and science. Math and science are fields that I love and excel at. While in undergrad I was active in many student organizations and volunteer opportunities. I volunteered at science olympiad for a year and also tutored middle school students. I have many younger siblings, all of whom I have helped with homework on several occasions.

I love bringing my passion for learning to others. Watching a student who has been struggling finally realize the intuition behind the material, when his/her face lights up with that realization really makes my day. I find this particularly satisfying with mathematics; for I believe that everyone has the ability to learn and understand all levels of math. Even though many students find this subject difficult and abstract, I believe that with hard work and perseverance, anyone can master mathematics. I like helping students to realize that and to see the beauty in the simple logic and precise answers of mathematics. As a graduate student, I have had to push myself to absorb all the material possible in a relatively short period of time. In order to achieve this, my colleagues and I work in groups, making use of the diversity of our strengths to improve the entire group's work. I tea

I enjoy helping students work through tough problems by allowing them to make mistakes and then rework the problem a couple of times the correct way. Since this is my area of expertise, I am able to come up with examples on the fly that will target the areas most troublesome to the student. Mathematics is a field that requires repetition but making that repetition as interesting as possible is a fun challenge. I do not wish to be a teacher by profession but I do enjoy helping individuals or small groups with science and mathematics. I have formally tutored with Madison College on two occasions lasting a year. I was also Tutoring throughout my time at Edgewood on a drop in basis with any students that came to the math department and could not reach a professor. I have a BS in Mathematics and doing math at all levels is fun for me.

I believe that children want to learn and discover things about the world, and my goal as an educator is to foster that curiosity and channel it towards classroom subjects by a more holistic style of teaching that incorporates personal interests with the standard educational canon. I believe fostering this love of learning and feeling of relevance towards themselves is something that not only helps young students, but, helps them years to come. Our job as teachers is not only to prepare our students for today, but, make sure they come equipped for their challenges in the future as well. Having my bachelor degree in English and Philosophy, I have been given a unique understanding towards how to ask questions to make people think about the material they're reading, and what questions the material is trying to ask. Supporting this is my background as a writing center assistant at college

As an Purdue University student, the drive to pursue higher education has always been clear and important part of my growth. I am presently pursuing my BS in Environmental Engineering, which has permitted me the opportunity to gain understanding of advanced sciences and mathematics while instilling creativity and practicality. Not only have I enriched myself through the math and science sides, yet I truely enjoy writting and languages, which has enriched my education, as a balance between the differnt subjects was created, while writting not only essays but creative stories. Over the past couple years and through highschool I devoted part of my time tutoring different subjects, and languages to not only youth but my peers as we. Growing up knowing that knowledge is power, it seemed as though anything was achievable. But as I began learning, I wondered why some things came easier to ot

As a Teaching Associate at California State University, Northridge, I was responsible for implementing classroom safety, directing and conducting laboratory class sessions in Biology (Principles of Biology and General Biology), and I created and graded exams. In addition, I assisted and advised students with assignments, tests, grades, and course content. As part of my teaching duties I assessed student progress and evaluated student performance. I complied with university policies and procedures regarding student testing, record keeping, grading and maintaining office hours for student assistance and advising. The opportunity to become a Teaching Associate came from earning a BS in Cell and Molecular Biology and a MS in Biology. I gained a wealth of knowledge and understanding in the following areas: General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Cell Biology, General Physic

I am a very resourceful individual who posses skills, education and experience valuable to any educational organization. I am culturally diverse and can relate to people of many different background. I have been in the education field for the last 5 years. I started as a tutor, then I moved on into getting my licensing in education. Teaching Spanish is something that comes easy for me since I am a native speaker. With my strong science background with a bachelor degree and Biology courses to teach secondary education I have the knowledge require to teach pre-college science courses. I have a combination of teaching styles that I like to use during my classes. I first like to pre-teach a topic, then I have an activity for inquiry and at the end I like to re-cap. I also like to use a student-teaching approach where I allow students to use the learning style they are most confortable
