I am a very laid-back person. I like to teach what students want to learn. I try to being as much practical experience into my teaching as possible.

I began my tutoring experience in the fall of 2009 with a program called Breakthrough Manchester. It serves underprivileged students in the area who do not have the resources to succeed. They ranged from grade 5 to 8. With Breakthrough I worked one-on-one with students as well as in a classroom setting in which I conducted my own lessons. I helped students with a variety of subjects such as science, math, social studies, geography, and even organizational skills. I worked with children from all walks of life, including kids with disabilities. During my time at Breakthrough I also spent two days a week tutoring mentally disabled adults. I helped them with basic math and reading skills, as well as life skills. I believe I have a natural ability to work with students of all ages. Tutoring and being able to help students understand certain topics is very rewarding for me. I truly

My unique teaching style is derived from creative visual art background, patiene from being a Japanese, and passion for educating our future. There is no pressure in my teaching style. Also being a father of two grown children of my own, contributes greately to my teaching. My style of art is hands on and viewer participations. After recieving my master's degree in Visual Art; I started teaching youngsters in the museum classes, Boston Children's Museum, Worceser Art Museum, and Fitchburg Art Museum. My classes are almost always full. Also, I have been a teacher's aide at a middle school in Leicester, Massachusetts.

Teacher of English as a Second Language – that was my initial BA. Being a native Russian speaker, I was able to understand nuances of learning and teaching foreign languages. After three years of experience as a school teacher I was awarded a Teacher of the Year scholarship. Then I began to practice personal tutoring. MA in Directing and Acting provided me with even deeper understanding of applied psychology. I worked as a professor and tutored both college and high school students. Plus, submission of research, professional reports and numerous articles gave me an insight into paper writing. My last ten years of tutoring include English as a Second Language, Business and Professional studies, and the arts. As a college student I was taught various pedagogical methods. Then being a professional teacher and tutor I developed my own personal style. My main believe as an educator is that ev

As I read the example noted below, I hear an echo, YES, I too love to teach. I see myself as a mentor. Listening and watching how people learn, what they need to know and formulate the best way to establish a program to achieve their goals. Each individual possesses their way of learning that may be derived from their environment, culture, family or a combination. Whenever possible I try to use diverse medias to experience topics from various views stressing constant feedback to assure comprehension is taking place. Helping individuals advance to the next step by learning is my passion. My mantra is Inquire, Inspire, Educate. After graduating college I taught elementary K-8th grade in NYC. I taught for one year and decided to live Paris, France teaching English. I lived in Paris, France for 1.5 years then moved to Rome, Italy, again teaching English. My experiences were wonderful as I me

As a Trinity College graduate, I had the chance to experience a liberal arts education which gave me the opportunity to learn about and excel in a broad range of subject areas. Moreover throughout my college years I have been able to gain extensive writing skills in all my courses. Regarding my teaching experience, I worked as a teacher assistant for a year as well as have tutored ESOL and elementary school students. With the experience I have had as well as the knowledge I have gained about education in my college courses I know I’d be capable of tutoring various subjects, levels and age groups. I have the skill to quickly learn and recall course material, gain a complete understanding of it and then teach this material successfully. Since young I have always had a passion for learning and my education, and throughout my college years my desire and love for teaching has grown greatly.

I believe that all children are capable of learning, but many experience barriers that inhibit the learning process. My strategy is to identify these barriers, remove them whenever possible, or otherwise embrace them and work within the circumstances to achieve the best possible outcome. My background in counseling and psychology has proven invaluable in the classroom and in collaborating with parents and educators. I am looking into the process of becoming a certified teacher, and will strive to make a difference in your child's life, helping them become more successful and enthusiastic learners. I have been a substitute teacher for grades K-12 since 2001 and worked as a tutor for Siena's Higher Education Opportunity Program. As an educational consultant for 3 years, I coordinated college fairs, campus visits, and taught workshops on Writing the College Application Essay. I won sever

Teaching is not for everyone, but I knew it was for me when I started student teaching and felt the adrenaline rush of 25 eyes staring up at me for guidance. I feel the need to spread as much knowledge as possible to the up and coming generations.I always feel rewarded when the day ends because I was able to help students get a better grasp on life. I also believe that the student is the teacher as well. Through my experiance, a student can teach an instructor just as much as the instructor can teach them. I am very laid back yet can still hold the fine line of being direct and rigorous at the same time. I am excited to teach anyone and everyone. It is with out question that my education will still continue as I apply to graduate school. As A recent graduate from a Liberal Arts School, I found it easy to connect with teaching as my calling. I have always driven for high levels of excelle

My experience in working with children is diverse. I have tutored in schools and homes. I have taught 4th and 5th graders and am now teaching 1 - 3 year olds with autism. I have worked with children and adults with various physical and mental needs. These experiences have developed my creativity and understanding of the individual needs of each child. I am patient, eager to teach, and organized. I am confident that each child can learn if their needs are understood and met. I am a strong supporter of consistency in discipline and believe that children desire to learn. My objective is to utilize my educational, instructional and classroom management experience to edify each child as a valuable citizen in our nation’s communities. I had the opportunity to begin my teaching career in Miami, Florida. I taught 4th & 5th graders at a private academy. I was able to learn much

I feel children are very self-aware and are very vulnerable to positive and negative feedback. Therefore, no matter how little progress is made, praise them. If no progerss is made or if an issue needs to re-addressed, praise them..."That was great, but let's try it this way!" I feel that you are positive, smiling, and they believe that you believe in them, 9 out of 10 kids will follow you! I was more of an instructor than a teacher. I was a day camp counselor at Solway House parent/child resort in Saugerties N.Y. I instructed kids how to swim, dive, play various sports and gave dancing lessons to the guests. As a high school student I tutored 7th and 8th graders in an after school community center. I was one of a few staff at the University of Connecticut to instruct graduates and staff in the use of the various electronic facilites available to them.

My experience as art instructor provides me the opportunity to witness the valuable role art plays within the lives of children and young adults. As art students gain confidence in their skills they gain confidence within themselves. My goal is to encourage students to express themselves creatively while generating a life-long enthusiasm for art. Each student is a valuable and unique individual, and my teaching style reflects this. As art instructor I am a valuable resource of technical skills. However, there is no "right" or "wrong" way to make art. I have set lesson plans and objectives-- but students are encouraged to create art according to their artistic vision. This gives students the ability to further pursue their artistic goals. Art and education has always played an integral part in my life, as witnessed by my college degree and professional career.

My goal is to help your child achieve success. I explain real-life applications of the subject (i.e., metric system--repair of foreign cars.) I encourage questions and dialogue. I use praise when warranted but am firm on deadlines and honesty. Aware of attention span, I take appropriate breaks or switch to another subject. I remind him to read and follow directions and to check his work over before he hands it in. I believe that in this fast-paced technical age your child needs the best chance possible to compete successfully. I have found that even with one exposure, a good educator can have a huge positive impact upon a student's confidence and comprehension. It is very gratifying to both student and teacher when this occurs. I have had a successful career as a medical scientist in hospital, government, and reference laboratories in the northeast and southern U.S., holding bench,
