I like to use a variety of media to enrich my learning experience. This can be adapted to the preferred method of the student. It is a great challenge to get the student to think critically and so I focus on what is of interest to the student, while introducing necessary grammatical concepts. It is not good enough to learn in a rote manner, but rather it is important to organically learn the target language. This will lead to more fluent attainment of the skills necessary to communicate in the target language. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in German Language and Literature, from Marquette University. I have traveled throughout Germany and practice my German language skills daily. I believe strongly in attaining language skills to gain a thorough understanding of cultures foreign to our way of life. German, in particular, is the language of the economic powerhouse of the European conti

I have been a foreign language teacher and tutor for 25 years (including English, reading and writing). I have taught all levels, all ages, mostly French (my mother tongue), German (my second mother tongue) Hebrew and English. I taught in private schools - 3rd to 12th grades - and in the public sector too: middle and high schools. I took teen-agers abroad, to Europe, (I was their only chaperonne) to supplement what we learned in class. I also tutor adults and children, mostly in languages. I strive to make learning the most fun and relevant as possible. I am a fervent believer of Gardner's mutiple intelligences, because I know that each person has a unique learning style, and unique interests. Therefore I will do all in my power to discover each and every student's learning preferences, so that learning becomes a responsible, joyful experience. Consequently, I use eccletic methods

I taught Constitutional Law and American Politics at Marquette University, and tax law at the University of Wisconsin Law School and at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. I have also taught at IRS and KPMG programs, as well as at numerous seminars for state and local bar associations, voluntary legal associations, and the UW-Extension. I have taken courses on elementary education at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. My hope to become an elementary school teacher was thwarted when I becamse seriously ill. I have four years of high school German and five courses in college. As an instructor, I believe it is my responsibility to help students develop as complete, well-rounded persons. This means insuring not only that the students learn the knowledge contained in the course syllabus, but also how to think critically, to communicate effectively both orally and in writing, t

As a student I enjoyed most the teachers who facilitated learning. Teachers who lead students on a road of discovery as they learned, who taught me how to think and not what to think. I model my teaching after the same style I enjoyed as a student. Helping a student discover for themselves the material not only educates them but fosters a passion for the subject at hand. Rote memory has it's place and is essential, but when a student becomes passionate about a subject, then the door is open for them to excel at it. I teach and tutor with the goal in mind to foster that passion, that drive and to be able to carry it throughout a life of learning. I was an exceptionally driven high school student, taking the most difficult schedule my small private school would offer. My course work included AP calculus and AP US government, on both exams I received good marks. In college I studied

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.

I am an easy going individual who attempts to make learning fun and relate it to real life examples. With physics and calculus, there are many instances when assignments can be very difficult to comprehend because it's difficult to see how a derivative or integral relates to real life situations. I do my best to try and simplify difficult problems into easy steps that a student would already know. I feel that the best way to fully learn something though is to do it yourself. Repetition in school and sports is really the best way to improve and is a theory I strongly believe in. With my bachelor degree in Civil Engineering, I have developed a strong understanding and comprehension of math and science. I have tutored my younger brother in physics while he was in high school and three years ago as a Resident Assistant on a floor specifically for engineering student, I have helped my re

Every child should have the best educational experience possible, and I want to provide that for your child. I strive to teach each student why, not just what. A complete understanding of how something works will remain with a student much longer than the knowledge that it does work. I hope that by tailoring my teaching style to the individual, I can help him or her to achieve their maximum potential in each academic area. I absolutely love the materials I teach, and if I can impart that to my students, not only will I have accomplished my goal, but also they will have gained a passion for learning that will benefit them their entire life. Beginning my foreign language education at the age of seven instilled in me a determination to master the French language and then use it to help others. I have earned a bachelor degree in French and graduated summa cum laude in three years. The
