Throughout high school I was a teaching assistant at Iolani during the summer for English Language Learners. While attending Harvard University, I volunteered in a after school program in Boston's Chinatown community teaching second and third graders from low income families. There I helped them with homework and developed projects with fellow counselors to enrich their learning. Throughout my whole learning career I have tutored many of my own friends primarily in math and science. I prioritize learning the fundamentals. I also teach study habits and strive to help the student so that they can continue to excel without my help.

My teaching style can be considered collaborative. In other words I work with adolescents and adults to understand the material presented. I need to find out how the approach the subject, then I try utlize my skills to work with them in their own style of learning as much as possible to help them understand the material. I do love collaborative teaching, because it gives fresh insights both for the student and myself as they learn the material As a research analyst for 11 or more years, as well as a research statistician, I have extensive knowledge of statistics which goes all the way to mulitivariate analysis as well as many of the lower math classes below calculus. I have applied my statistical and knowledge of math both in the class room where I taught high school and college students in statistics and math. I have also applied my statistical skills in analyzing educational projects

While raising my kids, I came to understand that each child has a unique way of learning. Homeschooling my son gave an opportunity for trial and error during which I discovered an understanding of how students would learn best. My teaching style is based on the Flemings VARK model of learning--Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Tactile/Kinesthetic. I believe that each student has a unique learning style. An auditory learner may be geared towards tapes, lectures and discussions, whereas, a tactile/kinesthetic learner responds to models, movement, and maybe drawing. Once a student's learning style is discovered it will greatly enhance their learning experience. I have a BA in Biology from the University of Hawaii and a certificate in Nurse Aide. My post-graduate include chiropractic medicine and business. I was a First Aid and CPR instructor with American Red Cross and American Heart A

I have earned a BA from the State University of New York at Potsdam, majoring in history and writing. All throughout college I tutored various subjects which include history, writing, literature, earth science, and general biology. These experiences lead me to want to pursue my masters in education. I love teaching. In addition I have extensive skills in grammer and writing due to writing research papers and essays in various areas of study. I love teaching all ages. I believe in making learning hands on and also making learning fun and interesting. I am extremely patient, friendly and motivational. I love to see a child's face light up when they finally understand something. I believe that some children just need a little extra time to learn a subject and that all it takes is a patient and motivating person to help them and I would like to be that person.

Do your science or math classes have you frustrated? These subjects can be complex, but I have over six years of experience turning them into manageable, even fun, topics. I use analogies, case studies, current events, and that student’s particular interests to keep subjects interesting. I tailor my lessons to the unique learning styles of each student. My students learn by gaining a true understanding of the subject and not by regurgitation of random facts – memorized information alone tends to be forgotten immediately after the test. In addition, my background in journalism has honed my ability to synthesize information and convey complex information in a straightforward manner. Over the past six years, I have been a collegiate instructor, a private tutor, and a tutor for elementary, middle school, and high school students in science, math, reading comprehension, writing, and his

In addition, I have taught science techniques to undergraduate, graduate, and medical students who rotate though the lab. I also have one year of traditional classroom teaching experience at the college level. I love science and because I am excited about science, students I have taught previously have enjoyed the subject as well. And if I can assist them in understanding the material, they will be empowered to become problem solvers. I have an easy going personality
