Creative Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Oakridge, OR

Over the last nine years I have pushed myself to succeed in academics. In 2010 I graduated with my masters degree in biology. During this time, I gained a strong understanding in many areas of science and math. I have experience writing research papers, laboratory reports, abstracts, grants, and oral and poster presentations. I have mentored students of all ages in science and statistics. In order for students to retain what they learn, I beleive that academics should be interesting and applicable to real life. I also understand that not all students learn alike. Mentoring students in sports and academics has enabled me to adjust to the learning style of the individual. I am compassionate and dedicated to the needs of the student and understand that learning can be frustrating at times. I can help students succeed in academics, offer them encouragement, and jump start their futures.

I love working with people and have done my best to always be doing so throughout my life. While in high school, I tutored and mentored other high school students. While in college, I started working with all age groups (pre-K through college), working as a mentor and a tutor for fellow college students. I have learned the importance of adapting my teaching style to the person that I am working with in order to help them succeed. I want every person that I help to reach his or her full potential. I will feel exceptionally honored if you choose me to make a difference in your child’s life. I hold a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies, providing me with a well-rounded college education. In addition to that, I am currently seeking a Masters degree in Education. At the end of this program, I will hold a teaching license. I love learning and encouraging others to strive to do their best.

I come from a family which highly values broad education in all fields. My degree in Studio Art allowed me to explore a broad range of academic topics. During college I volunteered at the California Raptor Center in raptor rehab and education, participating in community outreach and educational programs with students of all ages, from kindergarten to senior citizens. I worked as a public health educator for approximately three years, mainly in one-on-one direct education but sometimes in group class situations as well. Additionally, I have acquired extensive grammatical and written communication skills through written research and creative writing, maintaining a successful commercial website and operating a small, home-based business. I love working with people from a wide spectrum of ages, backgrounds, and abilities. I believe everyone has a capacity to learn and grow, and I find g

Everyone has a distinct learning style and attitude. I relish the opportunity to present subject matter to students in the precise manner that invokes that "eureka" moment where they finally achieve understanding of something that has frustrated, intimidated, or eluded them. I use humor and positive reinforcement to inspire confidence in my students. I believe that all people can learn, regardless of age or experience. They just need the proper guide. I am driven to learn as well as to teach. I have a BS in Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences and an MA in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, both of which have afforded me great experience not only in the sciences but also in writing skills. Over the last 11 years, I have taught and tutored students from elementary-aged to adult in English, writing, science, math, and test prep.

As a counselor for two summers at Camp Harlow (eugene, OR), I had my hands full playing, mentoring, and getting know up to twelve kids every week from the ages of 5-14. During this time, effective communication skills were paramount to success along with patience and listening. I work hard to communicate clearly and simply on an appropriate level. This has afforded me many opportunities to successfully mentor others. I believe learning is best done through teaching and dynamic communication. Overall, I would like to reinforce that my teaching style emphasizes efficient communication through the proper definition of concepts and the clear and appropriate use of language. I have recently graduated from Grove City College (PA) with a Bachelor’s degree in Molecular Biology. During my undergraduate studies, I was introduced to a curriculum largely in the fields of chemistry, physics, adva

After graduation, I taught on a transitional teaching license. I taught in the Woodburn School District. I then went to Japan and taught English as a second language. I grew up between Bolivia and the United States and speak Spanish and English fluently. I took statistics in university and taught math in Spanish from time to time as a substitute for the Woodburn School District. In Woodburn I taught a self contained classroom for a while. I had to teach ELL students Social Studies, Math, Language arts in both Spanish and English and science. As a substitute I taught all kinds of classrooms including all subject matters. This makes me qualified to teach a variety of subject matters in a variety of situations. I believe in diversity in teaching styles because each student is unique and each has different abilities in various areas. As a substitute in the Woodburn School distric
