A Little Bit About Me...

I teach best in conversation and partnership with my students. I possess a broad ability to identify needs and interests, listening to both what is asked for and what is expected from students. Working with people of diverse backgrounds has honed my ability to ask open questions so that together we can discover what is needed and how it can be acquired. I work with students in scanning resources to determine how learning can be accomplished, and monitor how we’re doing relative to our agreed upon goals and responsibilities. I love when my students have challenged me to stretch my ideas and skills beyond what is familiar and I have been able to meet them in a space where we can learn together.
I have achieved multiple advanced degrees focused on English, literature, composition, and research. I have a passion for teaching and have worked as a college professor in literature, divers ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the years, I came to realize that things such as getting yourself in the student's shoe and understanding his/her environmnet is critical in customizing a teaching for that specific person. Some students like studying in a very fun environment while other may find it distracting. Therefore, developing a flexible approach has been helpful for me because I have been able to serve different types of students in various age range. I believe knowledge is essential for self-confidence; in this dynamic and competitive environment, we all have to keep our knowledge up-to-date.
I grew up in Cameroon, a former colony of France and Great Britain. French is the official language so, learning the language was critical to complete my education. I earned a BA in Business Administration and went to France to complete some courses in Accounting. My passion for sharing knowledge led me to teach ... read more

I am patient, considerate, and teach with a style that makes a student feel good about himself/herself. I have straight-forward expectations and work with my student to hone them to a particular subject or situation. I am funny, and I work hard to create activities that are appropriately challenging, but fun. I want my students to miss me when I am not there!

More About This Tutor...

In college I volunteer tutored at the Crawford Country READ center to a pupil struggling with reading comprehension, writing and mathematics. In addition to this, during my senior year at Allegheny College I was a teaching assistant for a Research Design and Statistics I and II course. Furthermore, I am currently living in Pittsburgh as a private tutor. As a recent college graduate I can understand the difficulties some students may face in grasping course material and feel capable of connecting and conveying information in an effective way.
In the past I have worked with students both one and one and within a group setting, and feel comfortable adapting to any particular group or individual's needs. I believe effective teachers must compose a delicate balance of meticulous discipline and natural concern. The best teachers and professors of my academic career were not only intellig ... read more

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.

More About This Tutor...

Education, youth and adult continuing education are great passions of mine. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and has room for improvement. I don't believe that education has to be dull and I value creative approaches to learning, all the while keeping a keen eye on the task at hand. I throughly enjoy learning each student's individual personality and strive to find ways to make material approachable, relevant and practical. Sometimes the "trick" is just to relate to what they already know and love. Key educators made a profound impact on my life and it's my simple desire to continue to do the same for others.
I place a high value on practical education. I graduated high school at the top of my class and received my AA degree just a few of months later- all while working full-time. I then obtained my BA in Organizational Management and I am now in a loca ... read more

My experience as a teacher began in my Church, I taught for 3 years in one of our Sunday School classes. My students ranged in age from 2-11 years old. After graduation from the University of Washington I was unsure if Education was what I wanted to do. So I chose a different path, and found out just how much I loved to teach. I decided to take the certification exam for Reading and Elementary Education I passed the Reading exam and missed the Elem. Ed by 5 points. I decided to go into Adult education to see if it was for me. I began teaching communications at Bates in November of 2009, I now teach Interpersonal Communications and a Human Relations course. I just completed training to become a certified online instructor.
I love to teach, and I believe my teaching style is very laid back. I like to allow my students to attempt things and try to figure it out with the information I ... read more

I have been tutoring as a volunteer and as a job for a combined 7 years now. I have worked in both one on one tutoring with a dyslexic student, tutoring in specialized topics, and group peer tutoring. My longest individual tutoring experience has been with Aidan, who is dyslexic and I have been working with for 4 years. We focus on taking the larger, more daunting tasks and breaking them into smaller sections. Because of his unique learning style, I have learned many creative ways to present the information at hand. I have experience tutoring a wide range of subjects such as high school and college level chemistry and biology, math, world and US history as well as English.
My teaching style involves being open and relatable while keeping he conversation related to learning and the subjects of importance. I feel like students respond best when they are in a positive work envi ... read more

It is my considered opinion that there are many styles of teaching that can work effectively with students. Generally, I feel that it is best to adapt the style of teaching to the personality, interest, and capability of the student. My preference is working with teens and young adults, with whom I find that a style that guides them to find the answers for themselves is of greatest advantage. To do this, I tend to patiently guide students with a series of questions, only "jumping in" with information when they begin to appear to have reached a point of frustrated impasse.
I have twenty-five years of experience teaching religious subject matter(and the Bible)in smaller church settings. I have both a Bachelor's Degree and Master's Degree, and am in the process of completing a professional Doctorate at a local seminary. I have also had the opportunity to teach a graduate level semi ... read more

I first tutored for two years during high school when a family friend asked me to help him teach kids chess at four elementary schools. I thoroughly enjoyed these experiences and developed a patient tutoring style that emphasizes critical listening. I continued to tutor in college, after a professor recommended me to the Central Washington University Writing Center. I trained with eighteen other students and was one of five selected to continue in practicum classes for the 2008-2009 school year. I went on to work as a paid writing consultant for the fall and winter quarters of the 2009-2010 school year and consulted 293 undergraduate and graduate students on writing from a variety of disciplines.
If students lack motivation or direction, it’s often because they are trying to perform an advanced task without basic skills. For example, many students know about the “five-paragraph ess ... read more
