More About This Tutor...

After graduating cum laude from Miami University in 2003, I began teaching 8th grade at the same small junior/senior high school where I had previously student taught. I worked on an interdisciplinary team, which gave me exposure to all content areas. I began my Masters degree that same year. In my third year of work there, an operating levy failed, leaving me jobless, but through a classmate in my MAT program, I found a new position in an excellent district--larger and more innovative than my previous school. There, I taught 84-minute, double-blocked Language Arts classes: honors seventh grade and inclusion eighth grade. Over the last five years, I have tutored students who were homebound for a multitude of reasons in reading and writing skills.
I am a dynamic teacher who can adapt to whatever it seems the student most immediately needs. While I prefer a more laid-back, go-with-th ... read more

While I have not tutored academically in the past, I have taught my community's equivalent of the DARE program to fourth grade classes for two years and have also taught art lessons to children of all ages.
I feel very strongly that every child has the ability to learn when they are given the right encouragement. While working on my Japanese minor I quickly discovered that finding a method that works for an individual student is the most important part of studying productively. I feel that my fresh, creative outlook will supplement the classroom experience well and offer alternative methods to learning that may not be available at your child's school.

When it comes to teaching students, I love it matter what age or subject. The purpose of teaching is to expand the student’s mind to reach their potential. I believe every student can be successful with the right help. This means I have to understand their interest, strength, and weakness. I also, encourage students to explore to new ideas to expand their mind. I also will let the student explore new ways to figure out the problem, so they feel accomplished. With these ideas I will help my students to be successful.
I am currently an Ashland University student at the Columbus Campus getting my teaching license in Middle School Education (4thgrade-9th grade) in Math and Social Studies. Currently, I just finished my last two field placement where I taught 25-30 math lessons. Before, I went to OSU to get my bachelor’s degree. While I was there, I did some volunteered tutoring.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of The Ohio State University, where I earned my BS in Microbiology. My strong background in science and mathematics allowed me to tutor students in both chemistry and microbiology during my time as an undergraduate. Being the daughter of an English teacher, my writing skills were further polished by time spent in college English classes and writing countless lab reports in microbiology, chemistry, and biochemistry.
I've worked with both high school and college students, both gifted and disadvantaged students, and I believe that the key to being a successful tutor is understanding your student and how he/she learns. Through my experiences, I've learned how to explain subject matter in a way that enables students to repeat back to me in their own words what I just explained. This is critical. I believe students learn best by understanding first, and memorizing ... read more

I am strong believer in making learning enjoyable, purposeful (i.e., objective oriented), and relevant to students. First and foremost I believe in making learning enjoyable; by instilling a genuine respect for knowledge, and a genuine passion and love for learning in those I teach - because when students enjoy learning, and or what they are doing, the education process proceeds with much greater enthusiasm, success, and in general, also flows much more smoothly. I also aim to make learning purposeful, or goal and or objective oriented. By setting obtainable learning objectives, and providing ongoing feedback and guidance students, in a structured way, I am able to assist them to recognize and to chart their progress, and to take pride in their success and accomplishments - while enabling them (and myself) to meet (and or exceed) state, curriculum, and or program / te ... read more

Taught AP, Honors and Regent level Biology and Honors Physics at Preston High School in NY Most of my students recieved Mastery or above on state exams at the end of the year.Most of my students scored above 620 on the SAT biology subject exam. Tutored throughout my college years the subjects: Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy and Physiology and Microbiology.
My methods are rather traditional. I beleive that there is no way around hard work. I will explain the problems in many different ways in order for the student to grasp a particular concept. I also am a irm believer that the more problems a student does, the better they become in doing the material.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children of all ages and I believe that all children should have an equitable education. Because of the skills and abilities I possess in reading I have been able to help my own child achieve beyond her grade level and she is currently in the gifted program for reading. Because I am a school counselor by profession I make sure that I always listen to students and help them overcome any obstacles they may face. I believe that with individual attention all students are capable of excelling in their academics.
During my undergraduate studies at OSU I was trained by Americorps to tutor elementary students in reading and math. I worked for two years in the Columbus Public School System helping students that were behind their grade level in those subject areas. In my current high school position I teach a Career Based Intervention class and I assist students with thei ... read more
