My comments on tutoring Elementary Vocabulary : Vocabulary is the basis for understanding and expressing knowledge. I teach using the new word within a context students will remember. I make learning vocabulary fun!

My teaching experience focuses on teaching students who face reading struggles including dyslexic tendencies. I have had extensive experience teaching reading to dyslexic students. I aslo teach reading skills including specialized reading comprehension to a wide age range of students; elementary, middle school, high school completion programs, pre-college readiness classes. I have taught part time as a private reading tutor and then became a Reading Specialist for a public middle school, then elementary reading interventionist. I was invited to teach pre-college study skills classes at Lansing Community College. I also taught a high school completion program for English credits. On a part-time basis, I taught Reading Methods, Research Methods, and Children's Literature classes in a teacher preparation degree program.
Teaching reading to students of all ages is and has been my l ... read more

Degreed English/Reading/Writing Tutor With A Personal Touch!

I try to customize my sessions per my clients' needs. Everyone has their own unique learning style, and there are challenges and strengths, alike, that materialize from those styles.
Hello! I earned my Bachelor of Arts in psychology (3.5 GPA) in 2012 and have been tutoring English; ESL; reading; writing; and more for 8 years. I began as a volunteer through my university's writing lab, per recommendation by a cherished professor. I have worked with children and adults from a variety of cultures (South Korean; Venezuelan; Mexican; Turkish), and I have enjoyed playing the role of "student" in my own regard. I love to learn about other traditions and practices. One of the most rewarding experiences for me as a tutor was when I worked with a South Korean family for 1 year. While teaching two school age boys, I was privileged to be introduced to a bevy of Asian foods; practices; and even ... read more

“I am not a teacher, but an awakener.” Robert Frost

I am an educator with 27 years of experience. I have both taught and tutored grades K-12. I have a special needs, vocational, and assessment background. I love teaching and working with students. I am very patient, easy-going, and encouraging. My teaching approach is creative and imaginative. I use methods to make lessons fun and enjoyable. I believe in using "the whole language approach," which helps to reinforce several skills at the same time. I am able to communicate my thoughts and ideas very clearly. My philosophy is that any subject can be learned, if it's presented in the correct way.
I use a creative, hands-on teaching style. I break things down and present them in simple sequence, so students don't become overwhelmed. I am very patient. I try to incorporate fun, imagination, and creativity into learning activities.

Inspired Educational Help!

I consider myself a very patient tutor, which I think is essential to the process. That said, I usually offer the student a few options in which to learn the material. I then let them decide which option makes the most sense to them. I believe Education and learning is a very personal process, which is why it should be tailored to each individual differently. *I am available to help with homeschooling students. Please contact me for more details!
I first want to start out by saying that I have a passion for what I do. I have over seven years of experience as a tutor and mentor and it has been a very rewarding experience. I am currently a Secondary/Special Education Graduate student and am enjoying the process of learning more about the field. I received a BBA in Accounting and History in 2009, so I also have a background in Business. I will always be glad and willing to tutor i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Flexible teaching style for high school and college levels. For elementary tutoring, flash cards are the main teaching tool for phonics and vocabulary, and the teaching style for elementary level science is more flexible. **I say that my teaching style is flexible because I am easily able to contour my approach/style to the needs of the individual student**
I have prior experience tutoring elementary school students in phonics and vocabulary. I have prior experience as a homework assistant/aide in Anatomy & Physiology and Biology at both high school and college levels. I am extremely knowledgable on the subjects of Anatomy & Physiology, Biology, Ecology, Biogeography, Conservation Science, Oceanography, and Zoology & Taxonomy. I achieved a 4.0 GPA in Anatomy & Physiology during my training as a Licensed Massage Therapist. I received my B.S in Biological Science in 2012 and maintai ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored 1st-3rd grade phonics to my little sister as well as basic math (such as addition, subtraction, multiplication tables, and division). I also tutored a 7th-8th grade boy in pre-algebra for over a year. I helped bring his grade up from a low C to a high B. His academic counselor was very impressed and proud and encouraged to keep tutoring and teaching which I found I really enjoy doing.
