Licensed Teacher. Highly qualified K-8.

Howard Gardner's teaching philosophy aligns with my teaching style. He believes there are multiple intelligences. Therefore, some students learn best with movement or art or hands-on activities and some are very logical and so on. As a teacher, I try to incorporate various intelligences into my lessons in order to meet a wide spectrum of educational needs. However, as a tutor, it is important for me to get to know the individual student in order to capitalize on his/her intellectual strengths and improve his/her weaknesses through using activities and methods which correspond.
My experience has taken me across grade levels as well as across the world. In college, I studied educational methods, theories and philosophies as well as human development. During this time, I participated in classroom practicums (aiding with individual/ small group instruction) and then eventually student ... read more

History and English: NOT BORING! RELEVANT!!

As a recent graduate of the University of Oregon History Department, I have spent the last two years working with peers to enhance their ability to research, comprehend, and explain historical events through writing. This experience includes courses in Grammar and Literature as well as History of both the U.S. and the world. With a string of A-grades at the 400-level, I believe I am now prepared to help others find similar success by following some simple advice and encouragement.
Motivation. Hard work is made even harder when we don't enjoy the subject; for example, History can easily become boring and impossible to follow for young, energetic minds. When these events are brought to life, however, and made personally relevant to the student as part of our shared past, we may inspire curiosity which is the prime quality of a young scholar. Grammar and literature can also be tir ... read more

I believe everyone has a capacity to learn and grow, and I find great personal enjoyment in seeing a struggling student begin to blossom. I am patient, supportive, and compassionate.

A Little Bit About Me...

I strongly believe that education is a life-long learning experience, that children are able to learn from each other, that a teacher can facilitate the learning process and that students and teachers are able to learn from each other. I endorse the theory that all children can learn, but also recognize that they are unique individuals, who may process learning in different ways. It is, therefore, important to use the teaching method/techniques/strategies that best work with each students. I am an advocate of bringing real life into the classroom and/or taking students on field trips to experience things first-hand. I would embrace individual student differences and build on them, not only using traditional methods, but also those that are creative, innovative and hands-on. I would like to make the classroom a fun place, where students enjoy instruction and accept responsibility for ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My philosophy, and my approach as an English tutor is a holistic one. I have worked with students from the elementary level to the university level, and one thing has become evident to me, that students can and do improve academically provided they are given the appropriate support. It has been my experience that students benefit from an academic approach that incorporates self-esteem skills in conjunction with integrating academic tools for success. It is my belief that once students are able to begin expressing ideas, views, content, and thoughts, reading and writing skills automatically begin to develop. I have the ability to gain students trust, which facilitates growth on both an academic and personal level. I believe a good tutor/teacher acts as a mirror for students in which he/she can see progress as a wise tutor is only a reflection of a student. My approach is to ... read more

All students can succeed with the right guidance and support. I am an engaging, hands-on, creative teacher. I earn the trust of my students by setting clear expectations, being consistent, fair, honest, and patient. I am a firm believer in positive reinforcement to achieve desired behavior and performance. My students know I have their best interest. I follow a constructivist philosophy. Students learn best and become engaged when exposed to real life material that they can make sense of and can construct meaning from. I also believe that discourse in the classroom, the opportunity for students to share dialogue and articulate their learning to their peers is empowering.
My career passion has always been to work with kids. I received a BA degree from the University of Oregon in Family & Human services. I began working right out of college with homeless and runaway street y ... read more
