I am a recent graduate of kennesaw State University, with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology. I believe that I am competent in various areas of biology and chemistry, and will be able to convey that competence. I have taught and tutored at my church and in other volunteer programs since high school. I also currently give drum lessons at a Stephen's Music Company. I always find myself trying to lead others to figure out material on their own as a I set guidelines for them as they do so. I believe this is the best way for them to learn the material. I do not like to tell my students the answers, inhibiting them from thinking things through. I try to find different ways of teaching material in order to keep them motivated, as well.

I have a bachelor's degree in Spanish Education and a master's degree in Spanish Linguistics. I have two years of teaching experience at the high school level and I also have private tutoring experience. My philosophy of education is student-centered where as an educator I serve as a facilitator or guide to the students personal growth. My focus is on exciting curiosity and motivating each student to take responsibility for his or her own learning process. I believe that meaningful learning is acquired through meaningful experiences, and therefore base my delivery of any foreign language curriculum on projects where learners are required to use the target language in staged real-life situations, in combination with listening and writing tests. Most of all I look to excite curisosity, once that has been achieved anything is possible.

My German parents spoke (so-called "high", or proper) German at home in NY/NJ, which came in handy after we moved overseas when I was 13. Repeating 7th grade, I learned to read and write German fluently, as well as master the local dialects and sundry colloquialisms without a lingering accent. Doing so allowed me mask my heritage, enroll in higher education, and learn a trade, culminating in a long and rewarding all-encompassing painting career abroad and in the eastern US, before settling in Texas to explore telecommunications. I widely regard the world as a large classroom/laboratory. My teaching style with my own children is conversational, hands-on, and intuitive. I explore what most captures their attention, then weave in the lessons by using any available teaching aids, such as whiteboard drawings, to illustrate a point, literally.

I have a passion for learning and seek to exude that into my teaching style. I like to have fun with my students and earn their trust at the same time. I do have a habit of catering to each need and trying my best at seeing to their success. While I strongly desire a structured atmosphere for learning, I do not shy away from a little spontaneity here and there. I have found that this keeps the attention of my students and also provides for their further enjoyment of particular subjects that would ordinarily be dull. I have experience in teaching elementary & secondary grade levels. Having taught kindergarten and first grade, I have knowledge of the scope of learning for those levels as well as tutoring experience within that age group. Reading & science are my strong tutoring points. I have also provided counseling for students. In the secondary grades, I have taught and am currently t

I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of thinking about the world and asking questions. Several themes appear again and again in concepts that on the surface may seem unrelated and it is recognizing these themes that is the key to success in building knowledge and confidence. My teaching philosophy is to point out these common threads binding various topics in science and relate it to the real world as quickly as possible, always with the goal of breaking it down to its simplest explanation. I hold a bachelor of science in Biology (cum laude) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and attended graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

As a volunteer for St. Joseph's Home for Boys and Upward Bound, I have gained experience working with elementry middle and high school students on a personal level. I feel that my ability to reach the minds of youth is great because I speak to them not at them. I encourage them as well to question my ability as a teacher and leader while exhibiting the highestly levels of respect and understanding for others thought patterns. Although, my degree is in Construction Management and Civil Engineering I have a diverse background in teaching: physics, history, finance, algebra, technical writting, and 1 of my favorites public speaking. As a mentor and tutor I have a very hands on style of teaching. I challenge my students with the Upward Bound Program to think outside the norms of their traditional boundaries. I encourage a diverse mind frame and point of view for various subject. Most of all

My years of experience have taught me that no two students are alike, especially in the 'tutoring' arena. I find the students strengths and create a positive learning environment that students actually enjoy! My students tell me they can't believe how fast the time goes; and look forward to the next lesson. My teaching style creates a feeling of well-being, confidence and self esteem that the student can 'build on' every week. My students leave me each week with a sense of accomplishment and a big smile. And I too, always look forward to the next lesson! My students succeed. I was introduced to teaching as a guitar teacher and loved the field of education ever since. My first school experience was teaching 7th and 8th grade social studies in Queens, N.Y.in 1979. Finally, I found my niche in high school teaching various subjects such as Physical Science, Biology, Social Studies and tutori

I love working with children because they have such a youthfulness that is full of life and ready to take on new challenges. I have worked in numerous leadership roles and One of the aspects I try to instill within the mindset of children, is that English is not as boring as they may think. I believe that if you capture a child's mind by relating the core subject to something similar they are interested in, then you can teach them anything. I want to show students a new way of learning through hands on methods. I am patient yet firm. I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in English, with a Concentration in Creative Writing. As a student of Kentucky State University, I have explored my passion through words (i.e. Poetry).The Education that I've received from my University, allowed me to not only be successful in my field, but I have written over 100 Poems; which I'm in the process of getting

When I graduated from Emory University, I pursued my teaching job with a sense of excellence and ambition. Within the last three years, I have been able to teach kids, ages 5 to 16, to gain self-confidence through the performing arts. I enjoy working with children of all ages, and I have observed that each child learns differently. It has been amazing to see the impact that I have been able to have on my students' lives.

Being a tutor allows one to reach out and find the most personal and effective way to connect and instruct a student. My exposure to the many learning styles of students has taught me the importance of first understanding the student's learning style. I also believe it is important for teachers to find motivating factors for students. Lastly, I believe it is the teacher's responsibility to make learning fun for each student. When in combination, these factors create a successful learning environment for students. I have been working with children of all ages, from diverse backgrounds, and in a variety of environments for many years. I have been a camp counselor, swim instructor, piano teacher, and religious education teacher. I currently have been substitute teaching in grades K-12.

As a Big Ten graduate, I entered the education field for students in grades K-12 as a substitute teacher. I worked in Hazel Park Schools in Michigan for 6 years. I love to help students of all ages break down the subjects of math, English, French, science, and general studies --- into the minor components that will make it easy for them to understand and learn. I do not teach just memorization. I put the studies into game form, song form, and whatever creative ways possible to help the person retain the information for a long period. I strive to help them see their studies differently, and take their education seriously but at the same time to enjoy it.

My degree in Speech and Language came after I had been married and had 3 children. I earned a combination degree in Speech and Language and Teaching. My maturity and personal experience enabled me to teach and train children by starting with what the child already know. This approach to learning helps the child's self esteem, and allow the teacher to find out from the child what are his/her fears about learning. Secondly, I have excellent oral and written communication skills due to writing numerous professional reports, memos, letters and up dating files. I am computer literate. My teaching stlye is to know as much about my students as possible. I enjoy working with children and watching them learn. I know with understanding and patience, any child can learn. I believe that when a child is in a receptive environment, she/he will be able to relax and enjoy my open approach to teach
