I developed my passion for teaching others from a a pre-college program I was in called Upward Bound. I learned study skills, time management and other skills that helped me excel in college. After college graduation,i obtained a tutoring position with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.I served as a mentor as well guiding them through the difficulties of high school and applying for college and financial aid. My next position was for Admission Possible. Admission Possible is a non profit organization whose main purpose is to get low income students into college. I held after school workshops where I taught them how to apply for scholarships, write high quality essays and how to put together a good resume. I believe the best way for students to learn is by doing and discovering the material hands on as oppose to being lectured to. I like to instruct demonstrate the learning material to

I have a unique program for preparing students for the math portion of the ACT. I use diagnostic testing to help identify areas that need to be addressed, and provide practice using ACT practice tests to strengthen skills and build confidence. Patient, encouraging, supportive. I use adaptive computer technology to supplement my tutoring. I have taught at the high school and middle school for 17 years, in the Mequoun-Thiensville an Grafton School Districts. I was a school counselor for 5 years (middle school) and am currently an associate middle school principal. I retired from the Army Reserve in 2006 with 20 years of service.

I am well versed in math and finance, as well as writing. As a high school student, I successfully completed AP Calculus I and II, AP Physics, and AP Chemistry. I also took Calculus II for Engineers at Johns Hopkins University, as well as a variety of finance courses at Goizueta Business School. I also have excellent grammatical skills, as I am a former Editor-in-Chief of a law journal. I presently work as a law clerk, and writing for a judge is something I do every day. I'm qualified to be a Spanish tutor because I minored in Spanish at Johns Hopkins, and also studied abroad in Madrid, Spain in 2005. I first identify the student's strengths and weaknesses, and try to come up with a way to teach the student in a way that they will understand. I believe patience is very essential to having a successful outcome with the student.

I enjoy teaching, especially when I see my students improving. I understand practice, and the need to remember previous concepts is key to success in Mathematics. As a master’s student, I can often come up with several ways to solve a problem and choose the way that I think most of my students will understand. I also have a great deal of patience. I believe my experience in Mathematics will enable me to help you or your teen achieve success in his or her Math course. I graduated with a BS degree in Mathematics. During my college career I volunteered my time at a walk-in tutoring center where I helped several students. My love of mathematics has led me to graduate school in Milwaukee where I am a teaching assistant. I have experience teaching Algebra and Trigonometry. Calculus is also one of my strong points.

Free and unconstrained autobiographical writing is one of the best ways to coax a student insecure about his or her writing skills into putting into words intense experiences from their own life. I tell my students to just tell me in their own words what they are trying to say. When they speak aloud, the words flow, and then I say, "There is your opening sentence right there. Quick! Write it down." At other times, I ask them to pretend that they are really someone else, an actor in a television show, for example, and I have them imagine that the character, not they themselves, are speaking. This releases the student to let go of inhibitions and let the film roll "for the character" and then they stop focusing on themselves. As a lifelong lover of literature and writing, I have taught students from fifth grade through junior level college literature and writing courses. My MA and PhD degr

Knowledge is not something to be horded. I think we each have a responsibility to share what we know. I love to help people understand. I prefer to teach by lecturing,but I realize that individuals learn subjects individual ways, and thus as a tutor my task is to be clear and patient. From working with different people at different levels, I also know that to be successful I have to be flexible and creative, adapting my teaching style to the students' learning ability and personality. As an undergrad student at the University of Wisconsin, I worked as a writing assistant in the Academic Resource Center assisting students with reading, writing and grammar. I have home schooled my two children for over 10 years using an original curriculum as well as purchased curricula. In addition, I have volunteered for the past three years at the local public library, tutoring writing, reading and ma

As a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism and Mass Communication and English Literature has kept the world of education fresh in my mind. With three editorial/media internships, including TIME Inc. and the Milwaukee Art Museum, I am fully qualified to tutor students needing assistance in any communications field, specifically English composition, grammar, language arts, and/or reading. Through extensive practice in all forms of writing, working as a multi-subject/multi-level substitute teacher, and having been blessed with an excellent educational background, I have garnered an unconditional love for the world of education and teaching. Individual student needs become very apparent very quickly, especially in the subjects of language arts and reading. The first important step is to assess a specific goal then to lay out a pl

My experiences in schools, hospitals and business provide me with the diversity to instruct students in subjects, such as math, general science, biology, business concepts and English grammar. My educational preparation, BA in biology and MBA, has given me the background knowledge in science and business. In addition, I have a MA degree in teaching which has provided me with advanced instructional skills and techniques. I have taught and interacted with a variety of students from high school freshmen to college seniors, in groups as well as individuals. I have developed college internship programs where graduates achieved a 100% passing rate on certification boards. I believe that each student is unique. Therefore, a variety of teaching methods within a supportive learning environment are required to address each student's uniqueness. I have found that students relate to analogies,

I truly enjoy teaching students and spending the necessary time in order for an individual to fully encompass a concept. I consider myself a problem solver and I feel as though I possess an innate ability to quickly diagnose an individual's learning disabilities or weaknesses and therefore transform my teaching style to match the person's specific needs. My personality is laid back yet passionate for the subject material in which I teach. During the last 2 years of my undergraduate career at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, I spent time leading moderate sized tutoring sessions. My scientific research experience is extensive as I have conducted 2 years of research in the field of neuroendocrinology. I received the James D. Anthony Award at the conclusion of my senior year for "outstanding undergraduate researcher." Two weeks after graduation, I became employed by the Medical College

Obtaining a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering has exposed me to advanced courses of Math and Science, two subjects which have always fascinated me. I have pursued and achieved excellence in these areas all through my school years and my post graduation career as an industrial engineer has only advanced my knowledge in these areas. English language has been a strong interest of mine since an early age and I have actively cultivated that interest. My reading, writing and grammatical skills have only improved over the years with all the reports, theses and presentations that I had prepared during the course of my education. I have previous and current experience of tutoring students in Math, English and Science. As a recipient of higher levels of education, I know the career opportunities that such an education opens up later in life. And I am motivated to share my knowledge and insp

I am a compassionate person who will do whatever it takes to help students succeed. I always encourage my students to ask as many questions as they need to so that they have a firm understanding of the material. I love seeing the growth in the individual student. Students who have had me as a teacher report that they thought they were incapable of doing math but after taking my course their confidence has exceeded their expectations. I am a certified 6 - 12 Secondary Mathematics teacher. I have been teaching for 10 years with my last four being at the college level. I have been awarded the Who's Who a number of times. I just received my master's degree in mathematics from Marquette this spring.

I enjoy teaching people subjects that I understand. My preferred subjects to teach would be anything math, finance and accounting related. My teaching style is similar to coaching; I use positive reinforcement, motivate and lead by example. I look forward to any challenge and helping individuals succeed. I graduated from high school in 2003 with honors and graduated in 2007 from the University of Wisconsin La Crosse. Throughout my schooling I have attended multiple classes in reading/writing, science, history, computer/I.T., foreign language, creative arts, business and math. For two years I was involved with the Big Brother program where I worked with an autistic student. I’m currently employed at US Bank where I work as a mutual fund analyst. I’m also on the training committee at US Bank where I’ve been gaining real world experience helping others.
