Microsoft Office Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Mineral Point, MO

I love teaching. I earned my BA before I was old enough to vote. While my classmates were in his/her senior year, I was teaching. Eventually I earned my M.Ed. in Reading, then started School Administration and Adult Education. In all these fields I find similar necessary skills: patience, co-operation among staff and colleagues, knowledge of subject matter, communication with the community and parents and a well defined curriculum. Moreover, I am a published author and a former writer with St. Louis Globe Democrat - Suburban Journals. As a favor to my students, I often evaluate papers for submission. These students will always earn excellent grades. I am a listener first and foremost. I want to know what my students expect from me and in what areas s/he regard as most essential to her/his success. I believe all people can learn and understand. It is a pleasure to watch students grow in

I work diligently to ensure that I am very versatile when tutoring as I believe students learn differently. I am very polite and patient when assisting a student who is struggling in getting a concept. When applicable, I try to make learning a fun and enjoy applying learned material to the student’s life. I enjoy assisting students in reaching their goals, and feel all students can learn. I feel education is more important than ever and enjoy working closely with students by giving them personal support and encouragement to be successful in learning. In addition to currently being a substitute teacher for the Missouri State Schools teaching a variety of subjects, I have tutored elementary students in all subjects for one year. Through another employer, I worked closely with two students to improve grade performance in writing and math. Also, I have worked as a group facilitator for abou

It has been my experience that each student has his/her individuals needs and that each learns differently. Thus, I make a conscious effort to sit down privately with each of my students so that we can address his/her concerns effectively and put together a constructive plan to improve his/her skill set. As a tutor with Webster University's student literacy corps, I worked with individuals, pre-K-adult, on reading, literacy, and writing skills. I held this position for two years along with a summer position tutoring Algebra and French with HEC Upward Bound, which service at-risk youth. I found both programs extremely enjoyable and found that all of my students were eager to learn and improve their skill set.

As a college graduate student, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree, a master degree in Elementary Education, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of language arts, math, and science. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last seven years I have substitute taught in all grade levels, and have taught preschool full time for the past two years. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist appr

Throughout my college years, I was involved in coaching high school aged students in baseball as well as younger kids in a baseball camp. During my last year of college, I helped with a after school tutoring program that included students up to the sixth grade. All subjects were covered and tutoring was done in one-on-one as well as small group settings. My bachelor's degree is from a self designed major I had developed to best fit the needs I saw beneficial for teaching in a non-traditional classroom environment. I later accepted an internship that fell in alignment with this self designed major working in the St. Louis Science Center. Since I have been coaching, I knew that I wanted to continue with passing on my knowledge to others. I believe that through teaching the passing of my knowledge can be most rewarding. Although I have worked with students in various fields and of various a

I love teaching students, especially when I get the chance to engage them one-on-one. I find that teaching in a public school, I do not get to do this nearly often enough, which disappoints me, for I feel that many students do not really connect with the learning process until they have individual, personal attention. Many of my students have told me how much they appreciate my high level of patience and how I will take the time to explain over and over again in different ways until they have completely understood. When teaching, I strive to reach all the different intelligences, thus I vary my activities widely. The most important element of the learning process, in my opinion, is helping the students apply what they have learned, and I center my lessons on helping students achieve the applications of the knowledge they accrue in my class.

As a practicing attorney, I have spent the past four years teaching my clients to navigate the often intimidating legal process. In 2006, I received my Juris Doctorate from Saint Louis University School of Law with a concentration in criminal litigation. I received my undergraduate degree (B.A.) in Political Science from Saint Louis University in May of 2003. In the fall of 2006, I worked as a substitute teacher for the Fox School District in Jefferson County, Missouri. In addition, I have extensive composition and grammatical skills gained through four years of drafting legal briefs and memoranda. I believe in motivation and positive reinforcement to help students reach their full potential. I want each student to know that his/her opinion is valued and important. I strive to teach students to think critically and to learn how to learn, rather than how to memorize. I want to insti

My experience, specifically within the past two years, has been extensive. During this time spent at Webster University I was hired by the Student Literacy Corps, a non-profit organization funded by the university for the purpose of educating students in the St. Louis Public School District in English and writing. In addition to experience in the classroom in developing and implementing lesson plans and developing interpersonal skills with children of many ages, I also studied subjects such as calculus, astrophysics, South African history, and music theory. My experience in school has made me a well-rounded academic, and my experience outside of school has made me a well-rounded educator. I have confidence that I possess the tools necessary to help a child excel in any subject they choose to study. My goal is to help children in any context that I can.

I love to work with and help children of all ages with their language skills and understanding. I like to teach through example and help children figure out their problems on their own, but with some guidance. I am a recent college graduate with a BA in English (emphasis in Creative Writing). I have learned extensive grammatical skills and understanding through my work as an undergraduate as well as through my role as Non Fiction editor of our University's undergraduate literary magazine. I have experience tutoring non-native English speakers in English and have previously volunteered at day care centers, reading to children ages 2-5. I am excited to be given the opportunity to tutor again!

One thing that I have learned as a math tutor is that not every student learns the same way. I try to analyze not only how they perceive math, but I also look at some of their previous work to deduce what mistakes they are making and (more importantly) if they are making the same mistakes over and over. I also try to boost their confidence, as most people that struggle with math experience either frustration or fear. My goal is not to help the student with their homework; it's to help them understand the concepts being taught in class as well as building their level of confidence. This is the way that they ultimately learn in any math course. I have a wealth of experience in tutoring other students. As a student ambassador at Sanford Brown College, I volunteered my time in tutoring over 100 adult students in both math and accounting courses. Nearly 95% of those students received pa

As you can see, I have had very little tutoring experience, but my desire and passion has always been to share my knowledge and skills with those who need assistance in the area of accounting. I have done much volunteer work in my field of accounting and business administration via not much with tutoring. I would enjoy, appreciate and count it a blessing to be able to share and in part my educational experience and knowledge with student of all grade levels. I have many aspirations and goals and one of them is teaching in my field of accounting and maybe this is the door that will lead me into that direction. It is difficult to enter that arena, because my I started out in the business and financial arena and not the educational arena.
