I am a 23 year old graduate of Vanderbilt University, Class of 2014. I majored in Medicine, Health, and Society, while minoring in Philosophy. I began my undergraduate career as a pre-mededical student, but eventually transitioned towards preparation for law school, though I completed all of the pre-med requirements besides Physics. Throughout my undergraduate education I became well-versed in the areas of General Chemistry, Biology, Algebra I & II, and English, among other subject areas. Prior to my entry into college, I took both the SAT and ACT, and scored exceptionally well on both of them. I am currently working as a paralegal at Peter T. Skeie & Associates, a law firm representing individuals in Social Security and ERISA disability claims. I will be attending law school in the fall of 2015, with my school choice TBD within the next couple months.

As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must

Family & friends have expressed to me that my open-mindedness & clever & creative nature allow me to have an almost sixth sense-like intuition. Through the NCLB program, I put this theory to the test, & to be perfectly honest, I feel as if I lived up to this supposed “inherent capacity” to touch & better the lives of underprivileged, neglected, inner-city youth. As an educational activist, I REALLY, REALLY try to get & know each child on an individual basis. I want the child to become comfortable with me in their immediate environment: if a child cannot trust, respect, & admire his or her educator as a mentor, how can we truly expect the child to take his or her education seriously? Can we expect a progressive future if our children’s latent potential is never tapped into, & only remains dormant? I’m here to make that possibility less likely. From an early age, growing up in a loving

In the classroom, I believe the collaborative approach is the best method for teaching. For impactful learning to occur, students must be directly and actively involved in their learning. This can be done through group work, group activities, and class discussion. This approach is also best for tutoring. To be a good tutor, one must know how to best engage the tutee in the learning process. It is not enough to simply provide information; this can be accomplished simply by reading a book. A good tutor must put theory and knowledge into practice for the tutee to progresses as a student. I have considerable experience in teaching reading and writing skills. Through my studies in undergraduate and graduate programs, I have gained a firm grasp of the knowledge and skills necessary to teach English. Also, during my graduate studies I took a course on best teaching practices in a classr

Not every student learns in the same way, and understanding this simple concept is crucial to successful teaching and tutoring. My goal is to understand where each student is in their larger journey as a writer, as well as where he or she is in terms of the immediate work. I believe strongly in flexibility and patience as a teacher, in remaining open to what students say and to implementing new approaches when necessary. I listen carefully to what a student is struggling with and to his or her history as a writer, before I form a practical plan for improvement. The goal is not only to get through one or two papers, but to identify recurring problems and to understand why this particular student is struggling with these specific areas. While earning my M.F.A. I took an advanced course in the pedagogy of teaching writing, which focused on the teaching of remedial writers. I worked in th

I believe that the most important characteristic that a teacher must have is consistency. The teacher must develop a system of rigorous work with ample support. I believe that it is imperative to possess an in-depth knowledge of the subject which one teaches, not just be a few pages ahead in the book. In order to achieve this high level, I prepare meticulously for each session, reach the student on his or her level and help guide them to where he or she needs to be. I have had the opportunity to work and help develop young minds for a few years. After college, I tutored full time at a high performing urban charter school where I worked on basic remedial skills with students. I have continued to work with young people to build confidence in their skills and improve their performance in school and on tests. I have tutored students from 5th grade through 12th grade, focusing mostly on math

I have been teaching and tutoring students of all ages for the last ten years. Having graduated with a BA in English, I have learned much about writing and the writing process that I believe could help students at all levels. I have tutored students in English, reading, science, social studies, math, music, and French. It has been said that no one rises to low expectations. I believe that every child CAN learn, but that the process of teaching each child must vary depending on their learning style. Tutoring gives teachers the unique advantage of having students one on one, and allows us to truly discover what methods work best for those students.

I focus on each individual child's strengths and use that to bring their weaknesses up to a higher level. Through patience and encouragement, I believe that most children can experience dramatic improvements in their abilities. I am able to explain complex ideas clearly, in simple terms that are understandable. Then I expand on what the child already understands until they have mastered the more advanced concepts. I greatly enjoy the excitement, challenge, and reward of enriching a child's life through education. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Southern Illinois University.
