Here to Help Your Student Succeed

It definitely is important to combine styles. I use direct instruction, as well as guided instruction, and groupwork. It is also important to get to know your students and their specific learning styles. It is helpful to tap into their multiple intelligences and to present information in multiple ways.

More About This Tutor...

I am a 14 year old student at the Butler Intermediate High School. I have very good communication skills and am very advanced in school. I enjoy helping others with their school work; whether it is studying for an exam, helping with homework, or simply learning more about a subject I love to help. I am currently enrolled in Algebra 2, Latin 2, drawing, and more. I am very experienced in elementary teaching, due to the fact that my mother is an elementary school teacher. I grew up in a k-6 environment and adore the cheerful atmosphere.

I have been tutoring grades K-9 for quite a few years. I've also taught a preschool class while in high school. I am currently majoring in Early Childhood Education and Special education at Clarion University of Pennsylvania. I've participated in numerous afterschool programs to help children succeed and give them the confidence they need to step up to the plate and earn the "A" they deserve.
My teaching style will always be based on the students learning style.

I am a graduate from the Marshall University School of Education. I earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education which has enabled me to learn a lot about Elementary curriculum as well as the skills and strategies used to teach elementary children. Throughout my education experience at Marshall I participated in many different practicum classes where I taught and tutored children in a variety of subjects. I was also required to take courses pertaining to the content knowledge of elementary school curriculum.

More About This Tutor...

As a student myself, I know how difficult it is to learn academics by one person’s particular teaching style. I believe that you must teach by finding out your students’ interests and use those to introduce examples—this helps the student relate. I’ve learned to try out different teaching styles with my students to help me figure out the best way for them to learn. Once that is mastered, I will continue working with that particular style. I get very excited when students make progress and I have a positive approach to teaching, for example if a student does something correct or to the best of their ability I will acknowledge their success. It makes me happy to know that I could help a student succeed.
I’m a graduate from the University of Pittsburgh (2009) with a B.S. in Business Administration. After graduation, I realized my true calling while working at my YMCA in o ... read more

More About This Tutor...

When working with children of all ages I believe instruction should be non intimidating, exciting and rewarding! That often means using non traditional methods and materials for learning. I will create lessons based on the child's needs, ability, and interest. It is important to incorporate the educational requirements and teach the child ways of coping with the many demands of the classroom. I pride myself in creating a comfortable atmosphere where the child builds self confidence and feels the power of success.
I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education, but my experience has reached beyond that to help children with behavioral and mental health issues. I love working with individuals and meeting their individual needs. My job experience includes teaching Pre-Kindergarten, substitute teaching in public schools, working as a Wrap Around Counse ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in tutoring, substitute teaching, and being an elementary classroom teacher for over one year, my teaching experiences have helped me to instruct students in their learning endeavors. Also, through my love for writing and working on a book along with having an appetite for reading, these additional experiences have also helped me in instructing students in learning. Also I volunteered as a tutor in my local community and developing a summer reading program for our local library.
In order to reach all students, a teacher must use a variety of teaching techniques to meet the various learning styles of the students and must therefore be both flexible and approachable. Teachers should work more as an aid or guide that facilitate the learning process, rather than as omnipotent instructors who attempt to force knowledge into the minds of their students. Information should n ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have learned that every student has different needs and abilities; therefore, they need different learning avenues. My job as a teacher is to help each child find his/her way of learning, so that he/she may be successful in lifelong learning. I achieve this by utilizing hands-on materials, multimedia technologies, and inquiry based discussions. My goal is to create a classroom environment where students can flourish and have a sense of purpose and direction, yet still meet the needs of today’s society. I give constant feedback for my students, and I like to collaborate with them to get their opinion on topics. I am a patient, dedicated, and caring person.
I graduated from Slippery Rock University with a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Special Education. Throughout college, I was involved in numerous activities to better my understanding of teaching. ... read more
