I currently work at an Elementary School in Andover, KS as a special education paraeducator. I assist in grades Kindergarten - 2nd. I have an elementary teaching degree from Wichita State University. I student taught in 5th grade and 1st grade for Wichita Public Schools. I have worked as a substitute teacher in Andover, KS, and I also worked as a paraeducator for an elementary school in Wichita, KS for several years.

My teaching style alters with the needs of the students I am working with. Students learn through a variety of ways, and it is important to teach to how they best learn. I believe the effort I put in will affect the amount of learning that results. I work to positively encourage studen ... read more

I have taught for years in the public school system in Kansas. I have also served our great nation in the military, and am proud to a United States veteran. I am an avid learner, and have been my entire life. That allows me to have a unique perspective on tutoring others, for I have struggled in many areas of my education, and know how to get the point across better than most.

I enjoy watching learners succeed. I have the ability to diagnose learning weaknesses in a student, effectively plan a course to re mediate the student's learning weakness, implement a set of steps to assist the student to take the weakness and turn it to a strength building upon already mastered skills, and evaluate the success of the student's efforts and move on or re-teach based upon the student's needs. I have the ability to motivate learners so that they have fun accomplishing the goals set before them. But I am at the same time very task orientated and use a lot of behavior modification techniques in my approach.
After graduation from college, I entered the Peace Corps and moved to the country of the Federated States of Micronesia. I have lived in that area of the world for most of my teaching career. I have taught for over twenty years gaining experience on almost every l ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children and with adults. I especially enjoy watching a child's eyes light up when something makes sense. I value the constructivist approach to learning and encourage learning through exploration. I provide as comfortable a learning atmosphere as possible, knowing that students learn best when the least stressed. I am confident each student can learn and succeed; I am determined to find the most effective way to connect a student with new skills and understanding, knowing that each person has a way he or she learns best.
My original interest was teaching instrumental music. Although I changed majors and ultimately graduated with a BS in Computer Science, I have continued my interest in teaching, first by volunteer tutoring during college and later by helping adults learn to speak English. I eventually took an intensive summer course in teaching English to spea ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion for education. I am a lifelong learner that loves getting my student excited about learning. This is often easier said than done. Through instruction in my teaching program and field experiences I have learned how to motivate students, address various types of intelligences, convey knowledge of my content area, and find lessons to best fit the needs of my students to help them actively learn.
"Teaching" was the way I supported myself through college. I was a lab instructor, university experience teacher, cultural anthropology tutor, nutrition educator, and even a gymnastic instructor. I was thankful to find the College of St. Mary's Masters of Arts in Teaching. It is a solid program that has given me the opportunity to have a formal education in teaching. In my program I have over 100 practicum hours in a middle school science classroom, I tutored AP chemistry, ... read more

As a Civil Engineering student at the University of Michigan, I took classes that led to proficiency in math and science, as well as general classes that have given me a well-rounded education. I have been tutoring in Physics and Calculus for the past six years. I have also been playing guitar for 10 years, and have been giving lessons for four years.
I absolutely love teaching. I have considered continuing my education and pursuing a secondary education teaching degree. I believe I am patient and kind, and provide a learning experience that is most beneficial to all. I think that students can have fun while learning, and I try to combine fun into my teachings. Although so many students don't believe it, anyone can solve a math problem! They just need to understand how to look at the problem the right way. I'm able to give the one on one attention that a teacher isn't able ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my four years obtaining a bachelor's degree in biology, I spent five semesters being a tutor in college algebra, statistics, pre-med biology, and spanish 101. In addition to my tutoring of college students I was a note taker for students with disabilities in various courses as well as on the academic committee in my fraternity. The academic committee was responsible for scheduling study halls and helping with the studies of freshmen members.
I am a very relaxed person and possess an easy going teaching style. I consider myself very approachable and encourage those I am tutoring to ask questions. I specialize in math and biology and am able to teach to students with varying aptitudes in these subjects. My math teaching style consists of working practice problems and teaching different ways of solving problems since each student is different, not the same method works for ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated magna cum laude in art, and excelled in all of my classes. At university you write papers in almost all your classes, not just English, and in every class my professors commented on my writing skills. I have often proof read friends and colleagues papers and other writings. Also, I received 100% in my college algebra class and statistics. My teaching style is conducive to learning.
In any area I am able to translate my knowledge or find creative ways to express the concepts so another individual may understand. This ability to articulate ideas comes across in a friendly, excited, fun way. I would never make anyone feel inferior or less than smart in the way I teach. I attribute this to my siblings' personal struggles and a sensitivity to them.

More About This Tutor...

I actually started tutoring while I was still in college, helping out one of the science/math teachers, and proctoring classes when she needed me to. I have a BS in Natural Science with a biology emphasis, from which I've gained knowledge in most areas of science and math. Besides helping to teach in college, I also was a tutor for three years, in several subjects including Chemistry, Algebra, Calculus I and II, Physics, and more. I also was a member of the English Honor Society, where I proof-read papers for students once a week.
Since I have tutored for several years, I've found that every person learns slightly differently. The key to how I teach is to figure out how that person best learns. There is no such thing as a stupid person, just one who hasn't been taught in a way that they can understand yet. I am a firm believer in never giving up on someone, particularly when I know ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring my entire college career. All of my students received the grade that they were wanting and quite a few students even recommended me to their peers. I began tutoring one student a semester privately and was eventually recruited to tutor for a University program. While tutoring for the program I tutored 7 students one on one and ran a help room where I assisted many more. I have a BS in Aerospace Engineering so I am quite familiar with most math and science subjects. I also graduated from high school with an International Baccalaureate diploma so I am more than capable of tutoring any high school level material.
Since I've been tutoring I've helped around 50 students individually and have developed different teaching styles to suit different students. I am aware that each person learns material in a different manner so the teaching style must be adapted to sui ... read more

I have taught English at the University level for five years and the High School level for six months. I worked as a freelance writer for CBS, Brite Voice and its 600 clients for eight years. I've written for the "Wichita Eagle" newspaper and for the Wichita State University student newspaper, "The Sunflower." For the past five years, I have worked tutoring students in the writing lab at the university. I also prided myself on my ability to work individually with my students outside of class.
I had never thought myself a teacher until I began my Masters in English. As part of program, graduate students could teach, and in doing so, the university would pay tuition and a minor stipend. From day one I was hooked. For me, connection with students is the thing. I want them to understand, to excel. I look for the right method for each student and point them towards the building blocks o ... read more

Every child can learn! I believe that all children learn in different ways and it is a teacher or tutors obligation to find the way each child learns best. My goal with every student I work with is to get them excited about learning and exciting about wanting to know more. I am a patient, energetic and enthusiastic person who enjoys working with children. If a child is given the appropriate help then they will succeed. I had wonderful teachers growing up that helped me learn and I want to be that person for the next generation.
I have worked almost continuously at Wichita Collegiate School over the last 8-9 years. During high school I worked in the Early Childhood after-school program and summer programs. Since graduating from Colorado State University I have substituted in multiple age groups and for a variety of course work areas. In addition, I have received an Associa ... read more

The past four years, I have had experience with a diverse population of students working in the Wichita Public School District. In the classroom, I teach and coach students on all subjects, including: Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, P.E. and Computer Technology. I have held tutoring sessions after school with young students as well as grown adults. At the University of Kansas, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Journalism from the William Allen White School of Journalism. I also served a year of AmeriCorps where I participated in a variety of community service projects.
When I am teaching a subject, I attempt to pinpoint exactly where the pupil is misunderstanding the content. Then, I explain to the student in a way I believe will come across more natural. I truly believe in the variety of learning styles that all people possess. I believe they should be ... read more
