A Little Bit About Me...

I am able to tailor my instruction to each individual, understanding that some children have difficulty grasping certain subject matter due to either their individual learning style, or perhaps on circumstances beyond their control.
I am currently teaching in the Dysart USD, Surprise AZ. I am able to direct my energy to exactly achieving the goal of each family for their child. I specialize in all subject areas for grades 1-5. I love teaching.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe teaching style is dictated by the student. I have noticed that some take to hands on training better or repeating of the process till it is learned. I like to teach a subject and have the student repeat it back to me when I am done to make sure they have learned anything from what I have just said.
Experience: Responsible for monitoring training of individuals on shift and delegating work assignments. I would assist in designing training aids and test. I was responsible for scheduling training, perform the training, and then following up with making sure it is recorded and tracked.

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Elementary Education, a Reading and Literacy minor, and an endorsement in Middle School Education. As a teacher my students succeeded in reading literacy/comprehension, and improved their overall writing skills by several grade levels. After a successful teaching experience in Language Arts, theater, and journalism at the middle school level, I sought a master of arts degree in Educational Administration. Working in school leadership enabled me to focus on creating a real-world language arts curriculum, and improving student motivation and achievement.
As an elementary and middle school Language Arts teacher I believe instruction should be tailored to the needs of the individual learner and to the needs of the community. I have had the opportunity to teach in a variety of settings and ability levels. Students confidently excel when ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I set clear, attainable goals with my student. I am patient and sensitive to frustration, should it arise. I believe it is very important for the student to like the teacher, and to feel safe to ask questions, slowly building success upon success. I recognize that students have differing learning styles, therefore I attempt to uncover what works best; ex., some are visual learners versus auditory learners.
I have over 20 years experience in classroom and substitute teaching, both in Canada and in Phoenix. Teaching is my passion. I particularly enjoy working with students in grades K through 4th. However, I have experience teaching 5th and 6th grades, as well. I enjoy working with students of all ethnic backgrounds and those with particular challenges. Over the years, I have given extra help to many students after school. It is a joy to work one-on one.

My teaching style is very hands-on, exploratory and structured. I expect my students to work hard, stay focused, and give effort. I can work with any skill level of student and I motivated to try different techniques to ensure they not only learn the material but also apply it. I believe all children can learn, but it is up to me to find what works for the individual.
I am a graduate student at ASU studying Education Administration. I have experience working with students of all ages 5-17. I currently work in a middle school and spend my weekends teaching life skills to troubled youth. I have taught for over 6 years and I plan to continue teaching for as long as I can. I enjoy working with children and sharing my passion for learning. I participate in ongoing professional development to be a better educator and I am always for looking for new ways of teaching children.

I believe that there is no substitute for individual instruction and that all students benefit from receiving one-on-one feedback from an instructor. I am friendly, patient, laid back, but also dedicated to helping others achieve their best. I love to find ways to make the learning process fun and/or unique, as my experience has taught me that this greatly assists in retention of the lession. Finally I am optimistic and believe that expressing a positive attitude and encouraging others to adopt positive attitudes greatly improves the learning process.
I have a BA in History and an MS in Library and Information Studies, which provided me with study/research skills and knowledge of history and ancient literature. I gained grammatical and writing skills from writing papers, essays, and case studies. I have three years of experience as a substitute teacher where I taught a variety ... read more

I enjoyed all four years of my teaching. I taught fourth, fifth and Physical Education. Prior to that I substituted for two years as well. During substituting for three school districts, I worked with kindergarten through twelfth grade and special education students. Tutoring and mentoring students are my specialty. Mathematics, reading and writing are the areas that I have tutored the most in.
Positive reinforcement, motivation and encouragement are what I believe in. Finding the extra way to explain a task or principle is rather beneficial. Whether it is visual, hands on, auditory or applying to every day life, it just takes that special spark to light up a room. Seeing a child progress is quite remarkable!

I pride myself in the fact that I am a life long learner. I continued my education in graduate school in order to excel in my professional field, but also to assist others in their life long goals. My masters will be completed in May of 2007 in the field of Education with an emphasis in Counseling/Human Relations. I will utilize this education as a means to counsel, teach and explore. I have excellent written and oral skills and I have extensive knowledge in the health science field.
My style of teaching varies per student. I am able to adapt to fit the child's style of learning. I have found that many students are discovery students or kinetic learners. I enjoy giving examples and finding understanding in a problem. Children need positive enforcement and encouragement. I enjoy working will all age groups and seeing each child achieve their goals.

I began tutoring in elementary school. I tutored students in grades below mine in reading, spelling, grammar, math, and science. I continued tutoring fellow students in high school, as well as teaching children as a church volunteer. After studying the administration of justice and evidence technology at Phoenix College, I finished my BS at University of Phoenix. While earning my degree, I used the knowlege and skills I have gained to help struggling students succeed as well.
I would describe my teaching style as straight-forward, but constructive and rewarding. I believe patience is important and that small successes lead to larger ones. I understand that each student has different needs and learning styles vary, therefore I work to tailor my methods to the individual student while keeping the information plain to reduce confusion. I believe that teaching is about supportin ... read more

At this point in my professional career, I currently do not have any experience teaching in a formal classroom environment. However, my experience does extend into performance education, as I have three years experience working for the Denver Museum of Nature and Science in which I increased participation of general visitor and school audiences in gallery programs by performing in educational demonstrations and facilitating hands-on experiences. This included presentations in astronomy, biology and earth sciences.
I find that students have their own unique style of learning. I also believe that by establishing a solid set of study skills while catering to individual techniques of the student, the learning process can grow and thrive. Therefore, I would combine my training in theatre and performance to make learning an enjoyable process. I have a very kind and patient disposit ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children and adults, and I have taught all types of students from very different backgrounds. I understand that each person has a different way of learning and understanding. It is important to teach each individual in the way she or he best receives the material. I attribute much of my success in teaching with the fact that I make learning fun and interesting rather a burden. I find that students learn better when they are at ease and when they enjoy what they are learning. Education is very important to me. It is rewarding each time I can see I have made a difference.
I have an interest in working with others and helping them to develop their skills. I first began tutoring privately and through extra-curricular organizations. After graduating university, I began teaching. I have taught English for SAT and other college placement exams. I have also tutored ele ... read more

As a graduate of a college known as the Ivy League of the South and a highly ranked business school, I am very driven to teach others to achieve success in their education experience. I have earned my bachelor degree in Accounting while working full time and later went back to school studying medicine. I am now a Tutor in several of the most frustrating and demanding subjects: Accounting, Calculus, Algebra, Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology and Physics. I enjoy teaching and bring fun into all my lesson plans.
It is my goal to enhance learning to help your child get their homework done and for them to learn valuable skills along the way. I care about your child's frustration and boredom with homework and understand that success is built on minimizing distractions, breaking each problem down and creating a comfortable, quiet setting.
