A Little Bit About Me...

Tutored 2-3 days a week for many elementary school students when I was in high school. Subjects included introductory Spanish, Grammar, Writing, Composition, Writing, Typing skills and techniques, Study skills, and reading. Three years of experience in summer tutoring, helping students prepare for next grade level through workbooks, hands-on activities, and refreshing activities to recall main concepts and skills taught the previous year of school.
I try to get to know what tactics help each student succeed in the best way possible. According to what the student's interests and hobbies are, I create a tutor and study plan specific to them to help them succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

Being someone who likes to see the "big picture" of concepts and ideas, I struggled through math as a child, believing that I didn't understand it. I finally realized one day of the simplicity in it and actually began to enjoy solving problems one step at a time. I like to utilize trust and humor in teaching, giving kids an environment to feel safe and confident in. In doing so I have been able to earn their trust and get honest answers from them and in return show them that it is alright to be wrong as long as it helps them correct their ways to learn to do it correctly.
With a degree in Marketing and a year of school for mechanical engineering I have completed a number of calculus classes throughout the years. I supported myself throughout college and beyond in the Food and Beverage Service Industry and took a job in the Insurance Industry after graduating. I am now in the proces ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of the top chiropractic school in the world, I have achieved a high level of education. I have a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Through out the years I have taught 5-8th graders in various subjects, as well as helped teach for a national board review company to chiropractic students all over the country in a variety of topics. I was also the editor-in-chief for the Palmer Triune, helping me obtain an excellent understanding and appreciation for the English language.
My teaching style is different for each student. I have never considered myself a student that things come easy to. I always had to find a way to relate to the material, and when I tutor that is exactly what I try to achieve with each student. Sometimes all it takes is it being explained one more time a different way.

I go through all the concepts with the individual pertaining to what portion of statistics they are studying at that time. I will then walk them through a couple of examples demonstrating how to properly obtain the correct answer. I will follow that up by asking them to do a problem without any direct instruction from me. I will watch them work on the problem to assure they are working on it properly. If any mistakes are made I will politely point them out as the individual is working. Finally, I will ask them to work on problems completely on their own and I will check their answers when they are done. I feel the only way to learn statistics, or any math for that matter, is through repetition and working on a lot of problems.
While going to college at the UW – Eau Claire, I've been a math and statistics tutor for the past four years. I've also been a Teacher’s Assistant for a stat ... read more

I love to teach and help children of all ages (including adults) to further gain knowledge. Understanding is the biggest challenge that we can struggle with in this life. If we can work together to understand what has been found out, we can work together to create a more peaceful mind and world for our future. I am a firm believer that it takes hard work to accomplish goals but it also should include the lightheartedness of life.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a trained teacher I believe my pedagogy is best placed as one that embraces universal design---or the use of modifcation and curriculum adjustment to make classroom and personal learning available to everyone My teaching style emphasises student responsiblity and construction (discovery) of their own learning. I value the knowledge that a student brings from all walks of life. My students through high expectations and abundant encouragement always reach for their full potential and remain positive in what they do and learn. As a teacher I see myself as a positive force for this. I do not believe in passive learning/teaching styles so engagement with everyone I teach is a critical part of my tutoring and teaching.

More About This Tutor...

Over the years, I have been involved in a number of different teaching and volunteer programs including Junior Achievement and 4-H. I enjoy learning new things and sharing what I've learned with others. My background includes a variety of different jobs including retail management, the military and banking.
I enjoy helping others learn. Something in which I have always excelled is helping them look at learning something from another view point than they have been. Learning in a hands-on manner using real life situations is the best manner in teaching any subject to a student.

While studying for my Masters in Education I realized that in order to be effective as an educator, I must be a lifelong learner. My goal is to pass on this philosophy to all my students. Children and adults find me capable and successful in teaching content. I strive to make my lessons engaging and interesting and pride myself for creating and implementing a safe and friendly learning environment. The key to success is to reduce the stress level for my learners and I find when that is done learning comes easier.

I have an array of academic and business experience that I can share with students. I am interested in working with students of all ages. My skill areas include: MATH STATISTICS BUSINESS PROOFREADING MS EXCEL
I am very patient and attentive to the student's needs. I look for signs that indicate understanding and ask questions to detect misunderstandings. I am particularly effective in drawing pictures to illustrate complex concepts. This helps students understand at a deeper level and increases retention.
