A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is usually a one-on-one approach beginning with material that is proven to be relatively easier for the student so that that we can establish an enjoyable,interactive approach. We will progress to the level that will take more "thinking" on the student's part. Challenges are also necessary. I have a quiet manner and recognize the importance of the student knowing what is being asked of him/her. My goal is to enhance "independent" thinking in my students. I understand the importance of each individual student's strengths and weaknesses and help the student to thrive on their strengths and continue to improve their weaknesseses. My goal is for all children to reach their potential.I love children, I love teaching!!!!!

My comments on tutoring Study Skills : I excel at homework help, organization, time management, and support for students with ADD/ADHD and other learning or behavioral differences.

My teaching philosophy centers on individualized instruction. Rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor sessions to meet your student’s learning style and needs. I respond to learning challenges with flexibility, creativity, and positivity. To achieve best results, I engage your student in the learning process, break complex concepts into simpler parts, and target instruction to build specific skills.
I’m a Washington State Certified educator with over ten years of experience teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I’ve taught in both alternative and traditional schools, and have tutored a wide range of learners—from homeless youth to gifted students at top performing schools. I earned my B.A. in English Literature and Washington State Teaching Certificate for Secondary Education from Seattle Pacific University in 2009.

Helping students learn and learn how to grow

I like students to be comfortable, enjoy their experiences with me as much as possible, and learn not only the material they need to study, but also habits and practices that will help them with future studies.
My teaching experience is broad across subjects and age levels. Learning and teaching excite me and I like to think that attitude rubs off on my students. It can be fun to learn, and even those subjects a student does not find enjoyable, can prove satisfying. I've taught middle school and high school, as well as at Bellevue College, Renton technical College, and North Seattle Community College. My own experiences include not just teaching, but also professional broadcasting, journalism (both broadcast and print newswriting, creative writing, editing, and reporting), writing a book, supervising employees as well as students, and poetry awards.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is very versatile. I believe in learning more about the student's behaviour, likes & dislikes could be a gateway in their learning. I am like water when it comes to teaching. I don't really have a set plan for the day but one focus. I incorporate a lot of sports or everyday chores in my example. I always adjust to my student's speed at first and work to speed it up at a steady pace. I can be hard and disciplinary but I don't believe in physical. I value my time and if my student seem to be not focusing during the session I address the issue. I believe in direct but not imply unless its a lesson. "Direct & Honest."
I graduated from highschool as a salutatorian of my class. During my senior year I was a private tutor to most of my classmates and freshmen for Math & Science. I attended my local community college in American Samoa for 2 years. I was rec ... read more

More About This Tutor...

From 2005 to 2008 I worked as a teacher and tutor for a Seattle-based test preparation firm. I taught classes for the SAT and GRE and tutored the SAT, GRE, and ACT. I believe I met and exceeded the high standards set by this organization. In 2008 I worked as a regional field director for the Obama campaign in several states, leading trainings in voter contact activities, campaign software systems, and other volunteer activities. Training volunteers of all different backgrounds and educational levels was the key to my task.
I believe that instilling the confidence to learn is the key to effective instruction. Students need confidence not only in their instructor’s mastery of the subject matter, but also in their own ability to gain their own such master. This is not to suggest that rigor should not be applied, but rather that a student must have an emotional engagement with the lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am always on the lookout for the twinkle in a student's eyes when he has finally understood an especially challenging skill or concept. This is what keeps me working with children, although I no longer teach full-time. I believe that the small successes help a student progress quicker and with more confidence and self-esteem. Positive reinforcement is key, as well a sense of comfort with what is being learned. I am easy-going, love to laugh with a student, and listen to him when he shares what is making the learning difficult. Together, we can work towards a balance and understanding of the "why's" and "how's" of learning. After my years in teaching, I have also learned that patience is needed when working with children who find any kind of learning difficult. Their confidence level needs to be nurtured and I feel I am rather successful at doing that. Looking back at my experiences, I ... read more

My drive for knowledge enabled me to complete three degrees by the age of 22. I have high grades in all my classes as well as the extra science and writing classes I take on the side. I have a AAST in environmental science and technology, a BA in marine science and environmental studies, and will have my BS in one quarter. As well as being a full time student except for the summertime I tutor people in need of a little extra help. I have tutors ages from 6-25 and people with disabilities as well. I can help them with every subject, however my strongest subjects to tutor in are Math, Science, and History. I have an understanding that each person learns differently and I am able to cater to those differences in the effort to better help them and encourage there learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I present the information or concepts at hand in several different ways. I draw on the learners personal experiences to make the information or concepts relevant to them. I help the learner tie the information or concepts to their own knowledge base thus establishing ownership.
I tutored for the Federal Way, WA campus of DeVry University from spring of 2007 to fall of 2008. I tutored students in English, multiple maths, programming, game design, logic, and test prep. I stopped tutoring to devote my time to the final project of my degree. Now I'm an independent video game developer tutoring to make "ends meet" while I'm working on my first commercial game project.
