More About This Tutor...

I have been an instructor in the Martial arts for over 20 years, and have taught every age group. I have a talent of putting complex issues into layman’s terms. I am passionate about the subject matter and can transfer that enthusiasm to the student. I use logic, humor, stories and historical references to explain a concept to the student. I believe students will try harder and perform better if the subject matter is simple, interesting and compelling.
As a Martial Artist and former member of the Military, I am highly disciplined and driven to excellence. Resource Economics, not only went extensively through Beginning and intermediate Macro/Microeconomics, but included courses on government policies and environmental economics. We were also required courses in marketing, accounting and political science. I love studying economics and will always be a student as well as a teacher. F ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As I am a current Ph.D. student in English Literature, I have an immense interest in education--not only my own education but also the education of others. As I have been working on my two graduate degrees--an MA and a Ph.D in English Literature--I have been fully invested in preparing myself to become a teacher of English, literature, and composition. My BA and MA degrees are both in English Literature, and I am currently in the final stages of my Ph.D. work; therefore, I have a sophisticated knowledge of the English language, and my six years of teaching at the college level have made me a competent teacher of all concerns related to reading and writing. Additionally, I have worked as a tutor since 2001 in a variety of subject matters, but more recently in the field of English. I currently am a tutor at the University of Arkansas' Quality Writing Center. Here, I work to help students, ... read more

I became a teacher after 10 years in the private sector. I taught in California in the Westminster School District for 12 years (2 as a substitute/non-contract and 10 under contract). My subjects have included language arts, social science, and U.S. History. I have developed strong research and writing skills as I have continued my educational path earning a MA, working on another MA, and with my aspirations of earning my PhD in Latin American History. I have experience tutoring students in all subject areas, excluding math and science. I have a substantial amount of experience working with ESL students.
For me, teaching is a calling, a passion, something you have to love. After a successful career in private industry I was unhappy and missing something. After some soul-searching I realized my dream and became a teacher. I feel that the teacher should help facilitate the learning e ... read more

I have a BA in Creative Writing, which I have put to use not only in my writing but I am a proofreader to several other beginning author’s stories. They rely on me to fix their grammatical, spelling and usage errors so their writing flows more smoothly. In reading books I enjoy teaching others the overall theme, morals and observations that the author was trying to convey. I have developed my love for math and statistical formulas by applying what I learned in math classes to enjoy following sports teams stats better. I find that using numbers in several different areas promotes interest and learning.
I believe that the best way for a student to learn is to explain the basics of which subject I am teaching, show a few examples, and then let them discover how to obtain the answers in their own way. It’s very satisfying when I see a student’s mental light click on and their eyes ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an administrator of a school I oversaw the education of children from Kindergarten through twelfth grade. I have eight years experience teaching algebra I, five years teaching business math. I have eleven years experience teaching English grammar from third grade through twelfth grade. I have taught fourth grade for three years, fifth grade for three years and sixth grade for two years.
My goal in teaching is to provide the student with the tools to discover and learn new concepts and to apply this knowledge to the learning process. I do not beleive in giving answers, but rather helping the student learn how to find the answers. I am very patient and will go over a concept until it is understood by the student. I enjoy children who are eager to learn, but try to instill a desire to acheive.

A Little Bit About Me...

While in attendance at the University of Arkansas, I earned two degrees, a B.A. in Political Science and a B.A. in American Studies. In addition to these degrees, I also earned a minor in History. As I was completing my undergraduate degree, I participated in varsity athletics, maintained a part-time job, was active in student government, and volunteered through AAO. I am capable of aiding in history, geometry, algebra, and other basic courses.
I love to help children learn all that they possibly can because I feel that a quality education is the great equalizer. I am easy-going, task-oriented, and very passionate about helping those who may be having trouble in learning something.

I enjoy teaching and working with students of all ages. Learning happens best in an environment of mutual respect, and I am always learning from my students even as I teach them. I encourage students to think through their learning process, to ask questions, to explain things to me in their own words to promote understanding, to learn how to find information, and to consider how what they are learning applies in their daily lives.
I am a licensed attorney and a skilled writer. I earned two degrees from the University of Arkansas: a BA in Political Science and International Relations, and a BA in Spanish and European Studies. In college I tutored for Kaplan Test Prep and for the Learning 2 Learn Center in Fayetteville, Arkansas. After graduating from law school, I volunteered as a tutor in the Austin Library Tutoring Program. I have experience tutoring students of all ages, pr ... read more

Though I have not had any experience teaching in any school system in the United States, when I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Ukraine I taught both American history and American literature to high school aged students. I have a B.A. in history from the University of Arkansas and have had a great deal of experience working with youths as well. Currently I am in the Master's degree program at the University of Arkansas and have had experiences in researching, writing, and presenting my papers at conference. I will be graduating next semester and am currently applying to PhD. programs.
As a teacher in Ukraine, I was not there to replace the normal history and literature teachers. Instead, I supplemented their lessons and focused on developing critical thinking skills and stressed one on one interactions with the students. With history, the real teaching comes not in the memoriza ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I firmly believe that every student can learn, given the proper environment and instruction. I make it a point to listen to my students and try to see intellectual confusion and impasses from their viewpoint so that I can teach them in a way that makes sense to them and allows them to fully understand the concept I am trying to relay. Tutoring is a learning process for both me and my students, and I am dedicated to seeing my students through it. I am patient and want to see my students succeed in their studies and am willing to alter my teaching style based on the needs of my students in order to help them achieve their goals.
Throughout college, I held myself to a high educational standard, and maintained a 3.92 GPA. I majored in music, minored in chemistry, and completed extensive coursework in the math and science areas. Since graduation, I have worked in the chemical field, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After 29 years of teaching, I retired from the Public School System in May 2010. During my career I taught first, fourth, and sixth grades in the regular classroom. I also taught Developmental Kindergarten. Before I retired, I was the sole Gifted Education K-8 teacher for my school district. I currently am employed in this same position on a part-time basis. As a teacher I have had much experience in after-school tutoring in various subjects at the elementary level. My education at the Masters level,certifications in Gifted and Elementary Education, along with extensive classroom experience,qualify my credentials as a competent and knowledgeable tutor.

I love working with children and feel that is my God given talent. I believe that all children can and will learn with the proper time given to them. All children learn differently. As a teacher you have to work on the best way to teach that child. I feel that tutoring you have the full attention of the child. By working one on one the child will benefit greatly.
I have been working with elementary children for 19 years. I have expericence as a Title 1 Teacher Assistant, Special Education aide, Substitute teacher and Sunday school teacher. I have tutored in reading and math. I am currently attending Ashford University to complete my Early Childhood degree in 2012. I will then continue to get my degree in Special Education.
