Education matters the most

I am passionate about teaching, and really enjoy my job. I have been tutoring all grade levels and collage level too for several years now.

I began teaching 22 years ago at a middle school and later taught high school when I relocated to the beach. I also tutored at a local community college. The most rewarding aspect of teaching and tutoring is when the lightbulb goes off at the crucial point of understanding in the student's mind. I have a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Masters Degree in Human Resource Management and School Leadership. Furthermore, I have 67 additional education credits pertaining to teaching, tutoring, communication and human resources. I feel it's important to stay abreast of current educational trends, research and developments which ultimately affect the teaching style and learning effectiveness of the individuals involved.
Each student is unique. Therefore, I use a variety of teaching styles, strategies, methods and techniques depending on the individual's needs and abilities. A ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a life time learner and had been learning all my life by attending classes, reading books and attending workshops. My most recent tutoring, last winter season; really had opened my eyes to the needs of these children and I was amazed how I was able to improve their reading comprehension to a higher level than I expected. I love to teach reading & math for K-12 kids, being an analytical person; as I was a Chemist. I think I found my niche in tutoring, using variety of experience and knowledge I gained in my continuous studies, self-discovery, daily life encounter and employment. I love children, am a good listener and very sensitive to their needs. I treat them as my own and I want only the best for them.
I truly believe in education and it’s one of the top foundations of good citizen. I love children and I feel sorry for children who have difficulties in their studies. I a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In addition to my degree in physics and electronics,I have several years of experience working as a scientist/researcher. I have also been a teaching assistant for graduate students while at MSU. Even though I have not taught in a classroom,I volunteer several hours a week tutoring kids at the local library.
I enjoy teaching children. I encourage questions from kids while teaching, believing that there is no such thing as a 'silly question'. I also believe that students have different learning curves and a good teacher can bring out the best in every child.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taken quite a few upper level courses that many students may find difficult in their collegiate years. I took General Chemistry I & II, Organic Chemistry I & II, College Physics I & II, Human Physiology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Calculus I, Histology, General Biology, Pathophysiology, and Genetics to name a few. I come from a heavy science background and have been tutoring students since Junior year of high school. I have also completed several research projects at my undergraduate institution. I am willing to tutor college level courses because I have first-hand experience with them and know how frustrating times can be while in college.
I love teaching and imparting knowledge to others. I believe that if you understand a concept or idea, then you have the obligation to help another who is faltering on the way with the same concept. I believe in sharing knowledge and tha ... read more

Although I enjoy research and have developed a strong background in education, I find the most joy when presenting new information to my peers or finding small opportunities to teach science lessons. It is my personal belief that all students have the ability to succeed in their personal goals, and it is my job as an educator to help students reach and exceed their potential. As a tutor, I look forward to working with students to not only understand the basic concepts of science, but also develop a sense of passion for learning and a work ethic that will serve them the rest of their lives. I am hard working and passionate about teaching others about science, and look forward to showing students more about the world around them.
My journey to becoming a medical student at the Chicago Medical School was driven by both a quest for excellence and a life-long love of science and learnin ... read more

Students must be challenged, not coddled. Students at all levels need to be pushed to find their limits and then move beyond them. Only then can they achieve real growth. We must use education as a tool to educate the next generation not only for employment but also for citizenship. In so doing, we need to take into account historical precedents and objective reality ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe a great teacher needs to have proper skills and talents for teaching. I learned a lot while growing up from a great teacher; my mother. My mother was a teacher for thirty years teaching elementary grades. I learned a great teacher needs to be respectful, patient and to be able to illustrate the lesson in an easy, simple way. I try to provide simple analogies for each concept. This enables the student to grasp the concept easier and faster. In addition I help my students to learn better by asking few questions about the concept. This will help them to truly understand the lesson by using their analytical thinking.
I have been fascinated with tutoring for the past three years ago. I began tutoring one of the professors at the University of IL at Chicago in a foreign language. Since then, I have been tutoring various age groups from eight years old to fifty four years old. I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught "Introduction to Business & Technology" since March, 2008 and was promoted to teaching two classes online in 8-week cycles as "adjunct professor" in mid-2010. I was promoted to "visiting professor" in 2011, and enjoy working with students who range broadly in ability. My greatest strength is in helping students to believe in their own ability through aspects of mentorship and encouragement. I find that a high quality education is attainable when there is close, effective student-teacher contact. Any subject can be learned given the proper keys to finding desire in the student by creating an environment of peaceful learning, while also encouraging positive movement through reflections of forward progress. The ultimate achievement comes by creating “stand-alone” capability.

Teaching was never a job for me, but rather a way to practice a passion. I believe that every child possesses the ability to learn and it is the responsibility of educators to cultivate such talent and foster growth. I believe in helping students reach their potential by teaching them to pose and answer questions about the world around them. My classroom was a place where children were excited about learning. I made sure to convey my love of the English language to my students and gave them the keys to unlock the wonderful world of literature. I was serious about producing results and helping my students become better readers. I used benchmarks to track their progress throughout the year, and nearly every student advanced in reading growth.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in mutual respect for intelligence and expect productive and active participation from the student in their pursuit. Depending on the student, I might engage them in an appropriate book about their topic, ask them to find a magazine/newspaper article, tell me a personal story to identify with what it is we are reading about. This would depend greatly on their assignment, writing/reading skills, and interest. I feel every high school student needs to feel their mentors are supportive and appreciate their efforts, so I work best when I feel I am a part of a larger team incorporating the student, their family and teacher.

One place I belong is teaching and working with children. Anyone that knows me and that has worked with me would probably say that. I don't teach right now due to a desire to develop a real estate career so that I can end up in the classroom. Having said that, I really enjoy teaching. I am patient as all students are different in their processings, experiences and personalities. I am energetic and funny as I find that is a great way to connect with children. I have worked with all types of people, from severe attention deficit, to behavioral disorders, to utmost dislikes for specific subjects, to unresponsive. I honestly feel that I found a good way to work with all of them. I am still in touch with my students of the past and think that reflects how I might have made an impact on their lives. I find teaching the most rewarding, with the knowlege that most efforts will go unnoti ... read more
