Experienced Tutor - Coach - Professional

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.

"Children are the world's most valuable resource" - JFK

Working with children always has been and always will be a passion of mine. Prior to deciding that I would focus my attention on becoming a child psychologist I contemplated following in the footsteps of a number of my most influential role models: teachers. In my eyes, there's both a monumental responsibility and a fulfillment beyond words when you have been entrusted to educate our youth. While some may choose to see teaching as an insurmountable challenge, I see it as an unparalleled opportunity to do my part to better the lives of others, and an opportunity that I have taken advantage of countless times. In addition to tutoring algebra in my past, I have had the pleasure of serving as a summer camp counselor, an after-school activity facilitator, a pediatrics unit volunteer and a number of other child-based positions, many of which have taken place in the Madison area. I hope that yo ... read more

Making A Difference

In May 2012, I received my bachelors degree in English with a Literature Emphasis and a minor in Writing. I graduated with a 3.6 g.p.a. (Cum Laude Honors.) Throughout college, I took various education courses that focused on educational philosophy and physiology, elementary and secondary concentrations, and students with disabilities. I was able to obtain 36 education credits and in 2009, I was admitted into the school of education at my university where I was able to engage in student teachings, researchers, and observations. In 2011, I participated in the student outreach program where I would visit elementary, middle, and high schools to tutor them in English, Math, or Science and guide them through the learning process. From 2007 to 2012, I was part of the writing gym at school where I would help fellow students with their papers and tutor them about his/her grammar and writing struc ... read more

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 sp ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While attending UW-Whitewater I completed my Observation and Participation at Golda Meir in Milwaukee for 4th grade, completed my Field Study at Palmyra-Eagle High School for grades 9-12, and have just completed my Student Teaching at BlackHawk Middle School on Madison's East Side for 8th grade. I have tutored many students from ages 8-45(continuing students at UW-Whitewater). I am aware of the many different learners there are and I know how to relate the material at hand to the relevancy of the individual's life.
I like to laugh, have fun, and create a comfortable environment for individuals to learn. It is important to have that type of space so as to ensure that students do not form a sense of anxiety when entering the room or when studying that particular subject. I love creating a variety of activities: group, individual, hands-on, problem solving, comprehension and reading, ... read more

As a recent student, my online education used the most progressive and innovative resources available. The BS in Interdisciplinary Studies enabled me to become proficient in three, instead of one discipline. A focus in English-Professional Writing, Business and Psychology, provided advanced knowledge of many subjects, plus research, writing and communication skills, essential to online learning. I have skillfully produced thousands of academic papers, requiring extensive research, on a wide-range of study topics, making me aware of and responsive to students’ needs. Furthermore, as a Support Substitute for my local school district, I have worked with students of all ages, in a variety of ways, including one-on-one tutoring.
I have sons ages 17 and 20, and continually took an active role in fostering their education. From the time they first set foot in kindergarten, through high ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy helping people find and understand information. When teaching, I like to encourage my students to find their own path and reasoning to the answer. I encourage supervised and structured trial and error where the student tries different methods to finding the answer. This nurtures the excitement of discovery and the joy of learning something new.
First, I am a life long learner and love reading. I have a masters in Library Science and have worked for the past 2 years as a reference librarian where I frequently answered questions, worked with patrons one on one, taught ACT prep and computer classes. Previous to working at the public library, I volunteered tutoring elementary and high school students in grammar, composition, and mathematics.

Since receiving my teaching license that has me certified to teach grades 1-8, I have worked as a tutor for middle school students and been a certified classroom substitute in the Madison and Verona school districts.
The opportunity to teach is really the opportunity to work with kids to make them stronger academically. I enjoy stretching a students learning abilities to levels that they are not aware they have.

I enjoy helping students learn by understanding what they want to accomplish. I am a firm believer in the sayings “give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, but teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”. My experience in managing people is helpful to my teaching style as I recognize everyone has different strengths, weaknesses, and goals. The approach I use is determined by the student and their preferred learning style. My goal is to help your child reach their potential and to make a difference in their lives.
I have over 25 years of experience as an accounting/finance professional, primarily in the service industry. In addition, I spent 7 years as an adjunct faculty member teaching undergraduate and graduate level courses. This was a very rewarding experience and I received an “excellence in teaching” award from the College. My passion is helping others be ... read more
