My philosophy of teaching is based on my threefold belief that the overall mission of an educator is to promote positive learning, ignite enthusiasm for learning, and provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. Teaching methods should be inventive, interactive, student-driven, and receptive to a variety of learning styles. This requires active participation from both the students and the teacher. The specific approaches I feel are most beneficial are inquiry-based and experiential learning. This engages the students in tangible exercises that encourage optimal learning and retention.
I have a B.S. in Marine Science and Biology,as well as a chemistry minor. My experience is summarized below: SoundWaters, Environmental Educator: Responsibilities included teaching environmental education programs alone and in team-teaching situations to students in preschool th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would love the opportunity to teach grade school children. It was during my formidable years that I can recall a young lady who impacted my education in a very significant way. Additionally, I also have very fond memories of several children who I mentored through tutoring. My innate enthusiastic nature has facilitated a strong desire with the children to participate in the learning process in many unique ways. I gain tremendous joy and satisfaction through observing this process.
Earning a degree in Communications accelerated my skills in writing through Journalism, research papers and Rhetorical studies. Additionally, writing is something I enjoy and practice on a daily basis. It has been a number of years since I have tutored a child however, I would like to incorporate my vocational experience as well as my collegiate studies into my teaching practices.

A Little Bit About Me...

In high school, I tutored mathematics at Alexander Children's Center. Many of the children were abused at home, creating difficult challenges initially. However, I was able to work through some of these challenges by creating a calm and understanding environment, but also by establishing a routine. Today, I continue to volunteer at the Center as a basketball coach and can honestly say that I love working with children. I realize that tutoring for children without emotional problems will be entirely different, but I believe the fundamentals of my approach will improve the performance of my students.
As a high school student, I excelled in math and science. I received a 5 on BC Calculus, AP Statistics and AP Environmental Science, and 4 in AP Chemistry and AP American History. At Duke University, I majored in environmental science and policy, with a minor in economics. After working ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics. My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning must be relevant, interesting, and conducted in a highly accepting and supportive environment. I am keenly aware of the sense of inadequacy of students who come to tutoring services (I have been one myself in the past) and make special care to make all my students feel that improvement is possible for anyone. The knowledge and strategies that high performers utilize are not exclusive; anyone can learn with patience and the right tutor!
I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT). A score of 1400 on the SAT allows me th ... read more

While studying at NDSU I had the opportunity to tutor other athletes in geology, basic math, and the sciences as part of a work study program to help student athletes. I became a wilderness guide and instructor, teaching subjects such as cross-country skiing, swimming, trip leading, outdoor education, experiential learning to children and adults of all ages and abilities. I spent two years as a CPR and first aid instructor, as well as becoming certified to teach yoga. I feel my strengths are in teaching science and reading.
My teaching style reflects my personality; patient and always looking for a new way to learn how to teach something. My diverse background in teaching different subjects, sports and training young leaders has expanded my range of possibilities for helping children to learn. I believe strongly in a foundation of learning and education. I teach to understand the p ... read more

Educators play a vital role in exciting students' curiosity and motivating students' successes. A good teacher can impact a student's education throughout his life, and I strive to instill in my students strong work habits and educational values that will prepare them for future challenges. I am passionate about broadening students’ understanding of course content by developing experience-based learning programs that emphasize creativity, discovery, and problem solving. I believe that each student can be motivated to learn and succeed if content is presented in a way that inspires learning, promotes self-discovery, and improves self-esteem. I will bring energy, enthusiasm and experience to each tutoring session.

My teaching style has been to make learning fun and easy to remember. When I have taught I've been very interactive with the students and have gotten many compliments from students and patients as well, on my ability to communicate on almost any level.
In Medical School, Residency and practice I have always been expected to be in the simultaneous role of student, teacher, mentor and tutor. I can say I have a vast amount of training and expereience in science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, as well as the liberal arts. I score as an ITSP on the Myers-Briggs evaluation which means I am not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, I am also directive and attentive in teaching settings. I have done a small amount of teaching at the junior college level and am comfortable giving oral presentations to groups of people.
