I have 22 years experience of working with students ages 6 to 17 in two different countries. I taught elementary for two years in India and 4 years of 6th grade to 10th grade in India. I worked as a Teaching Assistant in California for one year in a middle school in a special education classroom. I got the opportunity to work as a T.A in St.Paul School District for 2 years with special needs students in an elementary school. I worked as an E.A in St.Paul Schools for 4years in an elementary setting. I am teaching in St.Paul Public Schools in a high school settings since 2003.
I nurture my students with their academic and special needs. Teaching is my passion.

I have 38 years of business and professional experience. I have mentored over 100 individuals in many different areas. Please see my Profile for my areas of expertise. My mentees have been more than pleased with the results. I also mentor in life skills such as work-life balance, females in a "male" work force, dealing with stress/pressure at work and at home.
I adjust to what the mentee wants or what works the best for the particular mentee. Everyone learns, absorbs information, and applies it in different ways. I am flexible in my teaching style.

I enjoy coming alongside frustrated learners who need an extra boost to support their academic growth. I am very patient and understanding, while at the same time communicating high expectations. I encourage and support my students by learning more about them and what strategies they need to succeed. I work to differentiate for the needs of each learner, recognizing that all students do not learn the same way. Ultimately, I work to instill confidence and a love of learning in each student.
I have taught elementary school for the past six years. I worked in an inclusive classroom where I differentiated for the needs of all students. I particularly love teaching reading, writing, and math. I have run many intervention programs, piloted new curriculum, and served as a literacy coordinator in my school to advance the teaching of reading and writing.

Ten years ago, at just 14, I knew I had a calling to help others reach full potential in all aspects of their lives, and did something about it. At that time, I implemented a scheduled and drop-in tutoring program through my high school counseling center. This allowed my peers to take advantage of my assistance in all subjects. For the next 4 years I averaged 200 hours each school year tutoring, and continued that passion with summer elementary (K-6th grade) Title One Service-Learning student teaching. Throughout high school and college, I tutored ESL after-school programs. I taught Alternative Middle and High School creative journal-writing classes, and spent time assisting in the college writing center. I taught and modeled skills including hygiene, cooking, money and time management, and decision-making. I volunteered with abused teen boys, probation, and middle school counselin ... read more

First, I love helping people learn. I strive to show students and people that chemistry, math and science is all about a thought process and is something that everyone can learn. Teaching sciences is about helping and showing students how to approach the problems, and problem solve not to just solve problems individually. I also believe in using and finding many methods/examples to find how the student learns best.
I have extensive experience in teach chemistry to students. In the past while at the University of Wyoming I had extensive one on one tutoring sessions with both college students and HS students (AP students). I have also tutored in math, and physics in the past also.

My tutoring style usually depend on the person I am tutoring, however the following is my basic beliefs, which guide my teaching methods. I believe that you can make any subject matter easy by focusing on the basics and relating the subject matter to things the student can identify with. This allows the student to not become overwhelmed and more acceptable to the subject matter. In addition, I believe that the students should be challenged and encouraged to reiterate what you teach them. This allows the tutor to become more aware of the students needs and helps the tutor refine their methods.
During my time at the University of Minnesota, I have been employed at several different tutoring organizations. First I worked with K through 6th grade age children at Village Parks. While there my focus was to educate students in different cultures and languages, through games and physical a ... read more

I have enjoyed watching children learn especially when they take what they have learn to the next level.I like to use a questioning approach when working with student to let them discover the answers for themselves.

I greatly enjoy teaching children at all levels. Through a variety of approaches and encouraging persistence, I believe children can gain knowledge of and proficiency in all subjects. A multi-disciplinary approach ensures a child's growth has both depth and breadth. I aim to teach in a way that develops the intellect and cultivates the character of my students so that they become critical and virtuous members of and contributors to society.
I became interested in tutoring during my three years of graduate study at Princeton Theological Seminary. Studying theology in my undergraduate and graduate work required me to invest strongly in multiple subjects such as history, philosophy, languages, politics and literature. This equipped me to tutor multiple subjects at various levels.

I really do place something of a premium on being able to connect with all of my students on an academic and personal level. I believe that this helps them as they know that their teacher and tutor cares about them and their future and, as such, this causes them to grow and excel. I can attest to such things happening with many of my students and for that I am incredibly thankful.
I have done a lot of teaching and tutoring, both with adults and young people. Most of my experience, though, comes from working with high school and junior high school students. I spent the majority of that time as a tutor/ mentor and would work with the students one on one or in small groups, both in the library or in the classroom. It was really the most wonderful experience and I was able to provide tremendous benefits to the students on both an academic and personal level.

Every child learns differently. In a world where we corporately streamline everything so that it all comes out pre-packaged and exactly the same we often lose sight of how unique each person is. I find that listening carefully to a child's reasons for having difficulty can help you to better understand how to help them learn. I find that children are often given too little credit - especially children with special needs. All children can be more than the world expects them to be. I just enjoy helping them realize that.
My degree in psychology has enabled me to understand all children better, and to work especially well with special needs students. I have experience tutoring students from the ages of 3 to 40+. Subject-wise I have taught Writing, ESL, Spanish and Karate. I have even given self-esteem building talks to grade-schoolers and middle-schoolers. My experiences as a writing ... read more

I have a strong background in English, and am currently working toward a Master's degree at the University of St. Thomas. In addition to my strengths in academic research and writing, I have written solicitation letters and grant proposals for a nonprofit. I have tutored for seven years at three different institutions, including Normandale Community College, The University of Minnesota Center for Writing, and the Starting Point program for low income, first generation, and disabled college students at Minneapolis Community College. In addition to writing, I have helped students with reading, the humanities, and study skills.
One thing I have learned in my many years as a tutor is that each student is unique. I try to be flexible in my approach. With grammar and mechanics, I have found that a directive manner is often the best approach; sometimes, however, students require clar ... read more

I have been told I am a patient and imaginative teacher. I have been a camp counselor at a nature camp for six summers and have tutored and taught for an additional 5 years. In this time I learned how to help children learn, and how to make it fun. For many children learning how to teach them is the hardest part, i.e. to use visual aids, or to make use of kinetic learning. With many years of experience I have learned to identify and then utilize the appropriate learning style to achieve the maximum level of improvement.
Throughout my four years at Marquette I tutored in three programs including the federally recognized TRIO program to help advance the college prospects of inner city minorities. I tutored in high school and college level math, science, social studies, English and literature. At Marquette I earned a BA in history and theology. I also studied abroad and at Marq ... read more
