Took college level courses in public speaking. I will ask the student how they learn a subject the best, and help them with their problem by reinforcing basic concepts and then adding on to those concepts. Also, I am a motivator; I will help the student understand that the subject is learnable and maybe even enjoyable to learn! I have taught classes on aviation related subjects for my Civil Air Patrol. I was homeschooled all the way to the college level, and I remember a lot of subjects in great detail. I have not taught classes at a high school or college. Generally speaking, I have a vast area of knowledge and I know I can help you with your learning needs!

As an instructor, I encourage my students to try something new and to make many mistakes so they can learn from them. I work hard with my students and try to get them to think outside of their current knowledge into new ideas and concepts. My style is extremely informal, with much practical discussions inserted to make learning understandable. My experience is primarily through study, trying, making mistakes, learning from my mistakes and trying again. I push my ability to learn and my level of knowledge in all that I do. Because of my focus in a broad range of subjects, I have been blessed with a wealth of knowledge and an appreciation of how hard it is to learn something new. I have worked in industry for over twenty years and have run my own consulting/contracting firm the last nine years.

I have a son who was born with neurofibromatosis is accompanied by a learning disability. My son is now 18 and in his last year of High School. He has been in special education courses since 2nd grade once being diagnosed with his learning challenges. He has had an active IEP since that time and I have worked very closedly with him throughout his school years. I have worked with him on every subject, every project, and encouraged him along the way. Due to his learning and physical disabilities, he has very low self esteem and this causes him to rebel during most homework sessions. It has been a true challenge, but very rewarding when I see him succeed, passing a test, knowing new words, etc.. My son, as I stated earlier can be rebellious, so I have to be very patient with him and always stay positive. I constantly tell him how smart he is, how well he is doing, and I always point

As a driven student & business owner, I've had ownership stakes in different businesses. Educationally, I have had a natural love for mathematics (BS) & life sciences (short of minors in chemistry, physics, and biology). As my involvement in business increased while still in school, I've been able to truly understand having to choose between the daily rat race and the daily demand of academic pursuits. As a musician and guitar teacher, I understand the balance between demonstrating theory and the importance of impromptu emotion. As a teacher, I like to relate to my students in ways that preserve, maintain, and promote integrity, face, intuition, desire to succeed, and encouragement. Teaching, or the best teachers, are required to have a certain undertanding that not just anyone has. I think teaching is a decision that demands patience, excitement, encouragement, care, and the love of

I have tutoring experience in mathematics at the secondary and high school levels. One example of tutoring at the secondary level was when I tutored an eighth grade student in pre-algebra to improve his math skills to prepare him for high school algebra. The result of this particular tutoring was that the student began to understand and enjoy math, which was one of my goals. His grades subsequently rose from the "C" level to an "A" level. I have also had the privilege of tutoring high school and college age students in math, accounting, economics and finance and have enjoyed watching them succeed and move to a higher level. I consider myself a very energetic, competent tutor who considers teaching an art. I enjoy working with students to help them achieve their full potential.

I have experience working with learners of all ages. My earliest classroom experiences while studying at Kent State were with Kindergarten and 1st Grade classes, and I have substituted in classrooms all the way up through high school. I have worked with adults in a GED prep and ESL environment, and my certification/area of expertise is with adolescent and young adult learners. I always seek to individualize my instruction. No two learners are alike, and this often gets lost in a busy crowded classroom. I believe that the ability to tailor instruction to a student's individual needs is essential for academic success.

I started my teaching career in 1983 at Indiana Girls’ School in Indianapolis, Indiana. After teaching for six years I successfully transitioned into the business world for the next 20+ years. Two years ago I made a decision to return to my roots and completed the additional course work and appropriate testing required by the state of Ohio to renew my teaching license in Biology/Life Sciences. You won’t find anyone willing to work harder or with more life experiences dedicated to teaching in the state. As a former teacher and business leader, I have come to believe in two fundamental ideologies that allow me to focus on what is important in setting up a proper environment for learning. The first is that science must be a major part of education today so that students will be able to function in the world of tomorrow. The second belief is that within every child is a spark waiting to

As a classroom aid, I was responsible for implementing the curriculum developed by the teacher. I also had the opportunity to work one-on-one with students who needed additional assistance. As an assistant teacher, my duties included but were not limited to curriculum development, facilitating parent teacher conferences, and accurate record keeping of the student's progress. To date, I have earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in psychology and two minors in sociology and justice studies. I also have a Masters degree in Public Administration; all of which have contributed to my proficiency in the areas of math, history and public policy as well as excellent communication and writing skills. I prefer to teach by utilizing real-life situations that are pertinent to the subject matter. In my opinion, when you are able to bring the subject matter to life by making it relevant t
