...Give yourself an edge…

My work through Lincoln Public Schools prepared me to be the best private tutor I can be. Working with students one-on-one in almost every grade level taught me how to assist each unique individual in a way that suits them best. Tailoring my teaching style to fit the needs of each of my students is vital as we all have different ways of learning. Many students began working with me with no hope and a failing grade and after some time, they had newly found confidence in themselves and their F had transformed into an A. Math and helping others succeed have always been passions of mine, so the fact that I get to do the two at the same time brings so much joy to my life.

I make sure that when I teach, I prep each lesson for that individual person. No one learning plan can teach every single person, so I hand-tailor things for each student.
I have been tutoring and teaching since my Sophomore year in high school. At that time I was teaching English as a second language to a few foreigners who were visiting my school. Since that time, I've gone on to teach elementary level through high school children/teens in various subjects with the boys and girls clubs of america.

More About This Tutor...

I like to make teaching fun. I pride myself on my ability to add fun through puzzles, arts and crafts, etc. and teach all at the same time. It is so rewarding when a child you are working with accomplishes what they may have though to be the impossible. All children, as adults, are sponges that are wanting to absorb all that is around them. I feel that my previous experience in working with children is my resume.
I have been a Human Resources Manager for past 10 years. A good portion of my job is involved with training. While there are differences in training/teaching adults versus young adults and children, the basics are still the same. I have volunteered in the past as religious educator for children in first, second and fourth grade. I also did some volunteer tutoring over 8 years ago in Mississippi as I was involved with the local literacy council.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love the one-on-one part of teaching. Connecting with kiddos, seeing the light bulb turn on in their faces. One of the reasons I am no longer teaching is the special ed paperwork was getting to take up more time than the teaching was. Plus I now have 2 small children at home. I really miss the one-on-one part of teaching. I know there is more than 1 way to teach every concept in math! Showing a kid this, is very important! Also showing them that it's okay to be scared! That all it takes is some patience and someone to guide you though it and math can be conquered!!!
After graduation I began teaching in Missouri at the middle school level for students with behavioral disorders. I taught all subjects in my classroom. After 2 years I moved to the high school level where I co-taught algebra and pre-algebra. I did this for 5 years and absolutely loved it! Although I do not ... read more

My main experience lies in working with elementary aged children in literacy and religious education programs. However, I received a bachelors degree in political science from DePauw University and a law degree (with honors) from the University of Nebraska, so I have a great deal of educational experience to draw from in teaching students as a tutor. In addition to my educational experience, I also have “real world” business experience and excellent research and writing skills through working as an attorney, all of which I will also draw from while tutoring.
I enjoy working with students of all ages. I strive to encourage students to develop a love for learning and the ability to learn independently. Each person has a different learning style so I like to allow students to take an active role in designing the method in which they will best learn the material. The best activities ... read more

As a tutor meeting a student for the first time, I feel it is best to create a common bond with a friendly approach, getting to know the tutee’s specific interests. However, establishing respect and understanding is also important to the balance and maintenance of that relationship. My philosophy is that making learning fun, yet challenging is the key to success and the bridge to self-confidence. With this, I am able to provide students with a welcoming environment, bringing both humor and depth to the session while inspiring creativity and critical thinking. I am a patient mentor, dedicated to the individual success of each student and hope to continue these traditions, contributing my skills to your child’s development.
For the past seven years I have been tutoring all levels of English and ESL both privately and at Fullerton College in California, where I received my CRLA Master ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After teaching 2 years at a large public High School, I spent 5 years as a Research Chemist in the pharmaceutical industry. This experience gives me a practical understanding of research and science that I could not have achieved had I limited my career to teaching alone. For the past year I have been teaching at the LPS Science Focus Program where I have greatly diversified my experience. While in teachers college I decided to pursue a degree in Biochemistry to strengthen my content knowledge. Having a science degree in addition to a teaching degree is a definite advantage.
Good teaching requires knowing both where a student is currently and where they need to go next. It is important to understand that each student may take a slightly different path in getting from "here" to "there." My goal is to focus on the strengths and find ways to overcome the weaknesses.

I still recall the early days when I was wrestling with foreign languages. Our French teacher had a positive impact on my teaching skills in that each time she made me feel that I need to put myself in the student's place to get the message across. Trying to come up with different examples to convey the same message. Most importantly, learning a foreign language needs patience and a lot of pratice. So, helping students learn from you, particularly a child, goes through simplicity and creativity too.
Before my selection in the Fulbright Program to come to teach Arabic here at UNL, I was teaching French and English for high school students until I got my Bachelor's degree in 2008. With the Fulbright program, I went through various workshops on teaching skills. I learned crucial teaching techniques that have been impacting my career as well as my students'.

I am confident that my college education at the University of Nebraska, interpersonal skills, direct work experience and passion for education and further learning make me a great candidate for this exciting opportunity. I am a former student-athlete at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where I was a member of the Husker Tennis team. During those five years I tutored English to a wide range of multi-national students, helping them on a wide range of areas from grammar to rhetorical writing. I was a spokesman and representative for the Student Athlete Committee and engaged in numerous school visits helping children learn the fundamentals of English writing and successful presentation. My duties as a SAC representative included proofreading elementary level textbooks for English classes in Nebraska.

I love teaching and working with children. I believe that all children are capable of learning. Each child is unique and, therefore, has a unique style of learning that must be tapped in to so that they reach their maximum potential. I believe that learning by doing is the best method of learning. "My" kids are always successful and eager to learn. They understand that we are a team and that together we'll reach farther than they thought possible. There is no higher calling than that of teaching.
I have spent thirty-five years in the field of education. During my college years I worked in the early childhood field and I worked as a private tutor as a means of supporting my education. Since that time I have worked in public schools, religious organizations, private educational facilities, and non-profit organizations partnering with public schools.
