High School Psychology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Oklahoma City, OK

Generally I will try to ask questions to see which specific points a student needs assistance with and make sure they understand the material on a fundamental level. I also believe that practice and hands-on experiences teach the most, so there tends to be an emphasis on working through problems step-by-step than lecturing. Ultimately I am flexible, and can change my style and routine to accommodate the students' needs. While at the University of Tulsa I have tutored in both math and chemistry, so I have experience with those subjects in particular. Though I received a bachelors in Psychology I was also pre-med, so I was required to take several heavy science courses as well. As such I am also proficient in several biological subjects.

I am a laid-back person, with the desire to help others. I am a believer of Lev Vygotsky and his theory of scaffolding. This style of teaching and learning purposes to challenge children with giving them a task that it too hard to complete alone, but can be easily achieved with assistance. As the children learn, the tasks are graduallyincreases to a higher level to facilitate a higher degree of learning. I have been an informal tutor for various aged children, family members, and peers for at least one year. I have assisted others with general biology, elementary science, life science, chemistry 1, pre-algebra, and algebra 1. I have taken several classes in education, which gave me the necessary skills in order to be a successful tutor. I have a bachelor's degree in Biology, with chemistry from general chemistry 1 through organic chemistry one, several psychology classes, and a have back

I believe all children can learn. What I have learned is that tapping into an aspect of the child's interest and using that to build the foundation for their learning is the best way to teach. Piaget called the idea that kids learn by building upon what they already know "constructivism," and I consider myself a constructivist. I also believe that a teacher's attitude makes all the difference. I became a teacher to make a difference, and I am willing to do whatever I can to tap into a child's potential! All kids are special and have something they can do that no one else can do the way they can. I have loved education since I was a child, and being the daughter of two educators gave me a lot of early learning opportunities. I have a Bachelor's of Science in Education from Northeastern State Univeristy. I was a para professional for 5 years and worked with special education classro

During my last year of college, I was employed by my university as a science/math tutor. During this year I was able to help students with their science problems of all levels. During my time in college I was involved in reading biomedical research papers.I was able to attract many students interested in the biomedical research field to learn how to read research papers. I was very proud of myself for this due to the high difficulty first year graduate students have reading these papers. My teaching is based on lecture explanation. During teaching/tutoring I encourage my students to ask questions. At the end of the lesson I provide problems related to the related material. Assign homework for next class session.

I believe that all students learn differently and should be treated as so; with this being said i believe that each student should work at their own pace and should be helped to find strategies that help them learn. I currently have a bachelors degree in sociology with a minor in elementary education. During the past 4 years and working in the early childhood education industry I realized that many teachers were not getting the proper training that they needed to receive to help the children that they are serving. Once I realized this I decided to work on my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education in hopes that i could be an Early Childhood College Professor and teach students the ins and outs of the early childhood industry. While getting my bachelors degree I tutored in subjects such as reading,writing, math, and science as well as art.

I am an extremely effective communicator. I am able to disect complex instructions into easy to remember formulas and guidelines. I am very perceptive and able to quickly "read" students to determine whether they understand what has been taught. I believe in asking affirming questions in order to ascertain if a student has not only comprehended the material but also apprehended the skill! I have recently earned Masters degree , therefore am fresh and currently aware of writng style and grammatical requirements faced by students. My recent teaching skills at a local, private academy include college freshman composition classes. I also have 7 years of pastoral teaching experience.

From early on in my high school career I understood that passing AP tests could mean graduating from college in 3 years, saving money for grad school, and a chance to get into the professional world sooner. That's exactly what I did. I had to take some summer school and intersession classes, but I endured. All the while I was involved with an organization on campus that worked to educate the student body on a number of environmental issues, worked with volunteers on events and campaigns, and trained my peers to take the same leadership that I did. I am first and foremost a listener. I'm laid back and patient but understand that success on exams and in school does not come to most without hard work and challenging yourself to go out on a limb. I believe that the best way to learn is to make materials apply to you and things going on around you.

After twelve semesters of college and a wide variety of courses, my college experience has left me with quite the education and still more to come. I am a Senior attending the University of Central Oklahoma pursuing a bachelor in Applied Computer Science. I have taken such a wide variety of courses in the previous six years that I have completed the major requirements for a bachelor degree in General Studies as well. This degree also stipulates I earn a minor, which I have completed in the area of Mathematics. My particular skills are in the areas of Math, Computers, and Life Science. Over the past couple of years I have tutored various people in all of the above subjects, adding Chemistry, though I have never been a formal tutor. I firmly believe that if a subject seems incomprehensible, nine times out of ten it is the professor and NOT the intelligence of the student. Likewise, I belie

After graduating with a 4.0 from the University of Oklahoma, I began my graduate work in mathematics. As a G.A., I had the experience of teaching and tutoring at the college level. During the past two years, I have taught 10 sections of miscellaneous classes, covering 5 different courses. Over the course of the past two years, I've easily had over a hundred hours of tutoring time. In addition to my two math degrees and minor in religious studies, I also have a good background in music theory, piano, and organ. I play for two separate churches each Sunday and have previously given lessons. Teaching is a means to find a student's misconceptions and correct them. I try to do this by engaging the students in conversation, asking them leading questions, or watching them work. I try to build classroom bonds, making communication easier. Once the students feel comfortable, it is easier

Even as a kid, I loved to teach and to learn. And one of the most important things that I've learned is that teaching isn't about asking someone to remember facts; instead, it is about giving them tools to help them think so that those facts mean something. My specialties are journalism, social studies, English, computers, and humanities at both the middle school and the high school level and my work is seasoned with insights from traveling the world as a teacher. From Korea to Amsterdam, from Oklahoma to Italy, all students want to learn and I help them discover how they can learn best. I once was called an “eternal pupil” by a fellow teacher; it is easy to see why. After receiving my BS in Business Education I immediately returned to college to earn my MS in Business Education. Since receiving my masters I have completed 127 additional college hours which certified me to teach journal

I have formal tutoring experience with college students. I have informal tutoring experience with elementary, junior high and high school students through my work at youth shelters. My strength lies in breaking down information to the basics and helping students learn the answers on their own. I graduated with a BS in Psychology and a BA in Criminology. My areas of expertise are statistics, psychology, algebra, trigonometry, editing research papers and essays, and writing in MLA/APA/ASA format. In addition, I made a 35 on the ACT and 1380 on the SAT, so I am more than capable of tutoring in ACT/SAT prep. I have made A's in English Composition I & II, English Literature, and Calculus I & II. I have experience tutoring college students in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Geometry, and Statistics. I have over a year of experience in tutoring students who are learning di

Due to my changing Majors as a junior, I received a Bachelors Degree with a double major, Biology and Education. My Minor was in English. I was pleasantly surprised when my Certificate in Oklahoma qualified me to teach seventeen fields. I have had the privilege of teaching nearly every discipline at the grade levels of seventh thru twelfth. In addition the District selected me to train to work with at risk students. One of my many assignments was in school suspension that required tutoring those students in the completion of their studies. I enjoy working with students of all levels. I have a patient easy going nature and feel the only dumb question is the one not asked. My goals are to enable the student to not only master the subject matter but to incorporate that knowledge and be able to relate it to other disciplines. I always taught a section in the classroom on how to study effecti
