My teaching philosophy has definitely evolved since my first teaching experience as a Teaching Assistant as a Masters Student at the University of Kentucky. I think I was very surprised to discover that teaching is not as easy as it looks, which is when I gained an appreciation for good teachers with effective teaching methods. My various teaching opportunities have led me to view education as a teaching-learning process whereby both me, as an instructor, and the student both strive for a higher level of awareness and understanding. Every time I teach a course I gain not only a deeper understanding of the subject matter, but also experience a unique teaching experience with each group of students. Considering all the differing teaching styles, my teaching style most resembles a combination of a gardener, a coach, and an entertainer. The gardener must tend to the different kinds of ... read more

I believe all adults and children are different and various teaching styles work for some, while not others. I teach and show by example and like to give people practice while they are learning, while being available for any questions they have
I have worked with children and families within the social work field. I have facilitated training classes for adults as well as went to school with children to help them with their school work. I've tutored them with homework, while working for Seven Counties Consulting Services, as well as privately tutored children. I love to work with children and like seeing them succeed

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a teacher for the past four years. I have experience teaching and tutoring in a wide array of subjects, from science to social studies. I also have had a great deal of experience tutoring students in elementary math and pre-algebra. I also have had a great deal of success in test preparation for tests such as the ACT, SAT, and PSAT.
Hands on.

Experienced Tutor with Expertise in Math and Social Science

My teaching style varies for each student, I try to tailor the work to how the student learns.
I have been tutoring students of all ages since I was in high school. I began by tutoring my own peers in math and social studies. I would also tutor children from 1st grade on up in all subjects. Once in college, I tutored college students and younger in many fields, primarily mathematics courses. My specialty quickly became preparation for standardized tests as well as calculus because I have a unique ability to discover how each student learns and tailor the lessons to their needs. I can quickly find where the knowledge gaps exist for each student and fill in those gaps, in order to create a complete understanding of the topic, not just get them to memorize answers.

A Little Bit About Me...

Disregarding my history, ethics, and religion expertise, my main reason for applying is my confidence in my capabilities to teach English. Basic parts of speech, syntax, grammar, organization, rhetoric, and multiple genres--from correct usage to specialized purposes (such as academic papers, business, text for oral delivery) have been mastered. In terms of mathematics, I taught GED, which covered most basic functions; however, I am a humanities person. My preferences are in the areas where I have spent most of my time.
Genuine, personal interest in the child; establishing rapport; establishing the student's mastery level, then building from there (instead of an arbitrary line which creates anxiety); affirmation of every step of progress/success; recognition but careful use of errors in non-judgmental, constructive correction; ease in backing up for review when needed; positive ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I worked in the tutoring section of both East Tennessee State University and Southern State Community College. I did not major in the subjects which I listed (I minored in Chemistry), but I do have experience as tutor. At Southern State, I tutored basic math and Algebra Courses to adult students who had been out of school for several years. At East Tennessee State University, I tudored freshman in the subjects of Chemisty and Physics when I was a Senior. I refreshed my skills in Chemistry last year when my daughter enrolled in an online AP Chemistry class. She was given very little instruction from her online teacher via email, so I became her teacher after a few weeks reviewing the subject.
Most math and science classes are problem driven. As a tutor, I would go over home work problems assigned to the student. If this wasn't complete enough, I would allow the student to use ... read more

As a former academic scholarship student at Western Kentucky University, I have a keen understanding of what it takes to succeed at the highest level even under immense stress. Learning mathematics generally requires assistance from outside sources as it is not the easiest subject to understand. In the past, I tutored other college students with LDS in Math and German. I am very comfortable with all the major foundations of Chemistry including General, Organic, and Physical Chemistry. This includes both theoretical and lab work. I am also well versed in the English language, History, and Drama.
I work best with individuals who are self-motivated and determined to succeed. I am the kind of teacher who responds to questions with questions. I understand that a lot of students are just looking for a sufficient answer, but this will not help them understand the material when they are re ... read more

I convey to each student a never give up attitude and show confidence in their ability to understand the material. Each problem will be explained to the student and I will encourage every student to ask questions. After the student gains confidence in working problems together then I will have the student work a similar problem by themselves to confirm their level of understanding. After the student works the problem I will go over it and correct any mistakes in their work .
I have an engineering background with a BS and Masters degree in Electrical Engineering. An engineering degree requires a significant background in math and science. While in college I had such a love for math that I took math classes as electives and became a math tutor for college math. My most recent experience is that of an Instructor in math and science.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked in after school programs tutoring children throughout my college career. Then after my college career I taught 3rd Grade at Peaks Mill Elementary School in Frankfort, KY. I have worked with students of all levels and had special needs students in my class. All my class work was differentiated to meet the needs of each student.
I believe all students learn differently and what we need to reach all students is to find out how they learn best and find a way to reach them that they will prove to be successful in. There are a lot of ways to reach students and when you find that one perfect way it all clicks.

Children can learn in a variety of ways. Some are more comfortable hearing instruction, others should be shown visually.... and others use a mix.Safety and security, along with comfort is critical to success. Methods utilized will vary upon the needs of the learner. The instructor must be flexible and adapt to the circumstances and needs of the child, teen or adult. Experiential learning is the best way for children to learn and retain the message. Therefore, creativity is important. A tutor may use jingles, rhymes or real life experiences as a way to help a child remember the lessons. Adult learners have their struggles too! Patience and understanding is univeral, no matter the age of the learner.

As a Purdue graduate, I was the recipient of the highest level of instruction in math and science. As an undergraduate I was named on the Dean’s list six times and was inducted into the Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society. I have earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering. In order to be granted this degree I was required to gain a great understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition, I have been on the cutting edge of computer science from the first hand held calculators. I can program in FORTRAN, Assembly, Basic, Pascal, and C languages, on a variety of platforms. After working as an engineer for 20 years, I then pursued a teaching license and have taught High School math for the last decade.

I am passionate about teaching the natural sciences to students and others who wish to learn. I have been in situations in both my undergraduate and graduate experiences were I have had to mentor and provide assistance to students in a number of ways, including tutoring. These experiences have developed me into a patient and understanding person, which is how I would describe my teaching style.I understand the difficulties that students may face when trying to grasp difficult concepts and that some students may require more time in order to comprehend these concepts, especially scientific concepts. I am dedicated, when teaching, to ensuring that the student understand the concept that I am teaching and its application.
