I think it is important to sit with the student and determine their strengths and weaknesses. I am very flexible in my teaching. I believe the student and I are a team. If he/she succeeds, we both succeed. I am always going over my notes, and thinking about different ways of teaching. I am open to suggestions from the student. If something doesn't work, I change it. I learn as much from the student as they do from me. It's a win-win! Let me begin by saying that I absolutely love American Sign Language. I worked with an amazing mentor that I still keep in touch with. I have been fortunate enough to substitute for multiple school districts and different grade levels. I have also interpreted medical appointments and school orientation for Deaf parents of school age students. I am currently interpreting for an 8th grade student who is involved in football. We will then move on to basketb

My teaching style is basic. I feel it is most important for a student to grasp the basics before they can move on to more complicated subject material. I also am a strong believer of parental involvement. A parent knows their children's learning patterns best. I like to use different approaches. Activities that are visually and mentally stimulting help to form a connection between the student and the lesson. It is important to me that each of my student's set and acheive goals. As a high school student, I attended Tiffin University to gain college experience and credit earlier than expected. After graduating from Clyde High school, I went on to Ohio State Mansfield, where I majored in psychology and special education. I am currently a full time student at Ashford University online. I am studying to become an advocate for special needs persons and children. I have been tutoring students p

I am a recent college graduate and I am looking for employment within my field. I have two years experience tutoring an elementary student. I worked with a student in second grade and tutored her in both Math and English. Because her mother and I communicated regularly, she was able to tell me of improvements and areas of subjects that needed more attention. I am very enthusiastic about being able to work with students of any age. As a recent college graduate, I feel that I will be able to relate and connect with all ages of students. I enjoy being in a learning environment and I enjoy the company of other people. Because I enjoy the learning environment and have been in one for 16 years, I have learned much about it. Everyone learns differently, and I feel that it is important to understand the student's easiest way to learn in order to proceed. I believe offering students the chance

In my experience, a person needs to be confident in him/herself in order to succeed. Learning of scholastic material is two fold: personal and academic development. By understanding the manner in which the student comprehends new information, we then can build upon their foundation by removing the frustration and replacing it with confidence that will extend into their personal life as well. As a bilingual, internationally traveled persona, I have tutored students of all ages. From 1999-2003, I have served as a third grade Teacher's Aide focusing on on reading, memorization and basic math tutoring. Since 1999, I also have tutored middle, high school, and college students in pre-algebra, algebra, geography, computer skills, writing, and grammar. My master's degree has trained me in learning techniques.

My undergraduate degree included a minor in Special Education which helped me in future employment where I have worked with children who have a variety of needs. I have found that when working with children patience is required and it is often helpful to include fun projects or incentives whenever possible to help retain information and keep focus on the skills they’re being required to learn. I also attempt teach study skills along with course material for retention and to ensure future achievement with minimal intervention. After earning my MS in Counseling and Human Services I worked for a private agency where I had years of experience with children who had difficulties in school for any number of reasons. I often helped high school and elementary school aged children with course required materials including writing and math skills along with other behavioral needs. I have found that
