I obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Foreign Languages and Cultures with an emphashis on French at Washington State University. At the same institution, I was a volunteer tutor.

I am a graduate of Cetral Washington University, with a BA in Elementary Education and a Minor in Reading. Before enrolling at the university and during my time there, I worked with elementary school children, helping them with Reading, Writing and Math skills. I have a special interest in Reading in Writing and enjoy helping students"turn on the Lights" on these skills. I have 10+ plus years teaching as a certified teacher and some experience as an undergraduate. I have worked in diverse school distrcict with many family of various races and economical situations. I believe students learn best in a situation they feel safe in. Not all students learn at the same pace, learning style, or level. I take these things into consideration as I am planning lessons. I usually try a varity of ways to get the lesson across, through group teaching, buddy system, one-on-one, worlshops, station

I've been teaching most of my life, first as a rank one student to my classmates and friends and later as a physics and math instructor. I enjoy showing the easy ways to go through complicated looking problems and concepts to my students and I like to witness their academic accomplishments which build the confident to be successful in life as well. As a mom, I've learned to be patient and easy going. As a teacher, I try to find the best approach for individual students. Some of them need more guided practice and examples, while some benefit from independent work. My pace and level of difficulty in teaching will be determined by the student background and potential and it usually goes from slow/easy to harder/faster.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As one of the top graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned bachelor degrees maths, Physics, Accounting, and French. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and l

I began teaching remedial math and English skills to college age students/returning Vietnam vets in Colorado in the 1970's. Since that time, I have tutored kids of all ages in those same skills. Knowing first hand how difficult it is to "re-learn" basic skills, I have a great passion to help kids learn correctly at the beginning. I worked as a free-lance tutor and volunteer ESL instructor from 1995 to 2005 From 2005 to 2010, I tutored on a permanent part-time basis at a Learning Center and worked with hundreds of kids during that period. I am currently a Homework Help volunteer at the library. My experience, empathy and proven ablility to help children learn are my strongest attributes. As an educator, I strive to discern the individual needs of each student and tailor my approach accordingly. I use my communication skills and extensive experience to explain concepts in suc

I knew I wanted to teach at grade 5. All my education from that time on was directed to become a teacher. During my graduate work at the University of Oregon I majored in Reading. It has become my passion to help all students love reading and become comfortable reading. This passion has been driven by the fact that I am dyslexic and understand how difficult it is to not be able to read well. During my teaching career I have worked with all grades and developmental levels. My Resume is a much better indicator of my experience along with meeting me in person. I believe that all children can learn you just have to find their style. Each person has their own unique learning style. That is why tutoring can truely help students become better learners because a one on one approach can help them find their style and become their own advocates.

What strikes me most as I look back at my education is how much of an impact a teacher can have when they make their subject relevant to their students. When I am teaching I try to find out what motivates each student as a person, in addition to what is motivating them to take the class. My goal is to find a way to present the material in such a way that the experience of learning is a journey of meaningful discovery that corresponds to the course content. While completing my BS in engineering, I spent two years tutoring math, physics, and optics. During my senior year I was also able to teach a portion of two terms of the freshman optics class. During the last four years I have worked as an aerospace engineer, and as a private contractor. Although these weren't teaching positions, I believe that these experiences have given me unique opportunities to share my knowledge and will be

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 intelligent, but carried a contagious passion for what they studied. I would like to think my teaching style is the same. 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 fac

I am often frustrated by many school teacher's lack of enthusiasm and understanding for mathematics. Contrary to many, I do not believe math should be simply memorization and calculations. There is beauty in understanding and this is what I strive to impart on the students I work with. I have always loved and excelled at mathematics and I enjoy sharing my passion with others. I began tutoring my fellow students in high school and when I entered college I began tutoring in Seattle University's Math Lab, a free, walk-in service on campus. I have worked privately with students at all levels and especially enjoy the experience of one-on-one learning.

I have worked in a variety of classroom settings, from a traditional 30-student class, to small groups, to one on one instruction. I enjoy working with teens to encourage them to tackle challenging subjects with confidence and enthusiasm. I am friendly, open minded and patient, but I am also firm and set clear expectations for performance and learning. Every student has different needs and learning styles, and I enjoy the challenge of finding the right approach for each one. I have been a high school English teacher for over 20 years, teaching all levels from ninth grade through AP English. During this time, in addition to teaching all course content, I have helped hundreds of students write college essays, prep for AP exams, and practice for the SAT.

I love helping and teaching children. I have given riding lessons to all ages of children for years, realizing there is no better feeling than helping children accomplish their goals. I would love to help children in any way I can to meet their academic goals, I know what it is like to have to study hard for what you want to accomplish. Being 25 I feel, and just being a graduate myself, I think can be a way to relate to the children and what they are trying to achieve. I would love to gain this type of experience and would really enjoy this type of work. I also have had a lot of psychology classes and feel that I am good at connecting with people and understanding the problems they are trying to get through. I just graduated from PLU with a degree in Business, a concentration in human resources, and a minor in psychology. I maintained a high GPA throughout my college experience and gradu
