My comments on tutoring Elementary Social Studies : I have student teaching experience in the elementary school setting.

I studied Elementary Education during my undergraduate. During this time, I was a student teacher on several different occasions. I assisted the home room teacher and independently planned and taught lessons to the students. I have worked with grades 1 to 5 as a student teacher. I enjoyed teaching and was a very passionate teacher, but I realized that work as a social worker would allow me to help my students on a more personal level. During my work as a social worker, I worked with clients in the school and home setting. I educated teachers and school staff regarding my client's mental illnesses, and I developed classroom strategies to help my clients thrive in the classroom. For the past two years, I have taught ESL in South Korea. I created and taught lessons to middle school female students. I helped them develop their listening, speaking, and writing skills. I reviewed all ... read more

I love teaching. I care deeply for my students and their individual learning needs. I am able to combine an inviting learning environment with good disciplinary tactics. I am excited about teaching and about learning. Learning never ends. I am ready to learn as much from my students as they learn from me which provides an avenue for growth in both the teacher and students.

Having two wonderful elementary teachers, I was inspired to become a teacher. I graduated in 1988 with an Elementary Education degree. I began my career as a teacher's aide but soon decided to be a stay-at-home mom to my two children. In 1994, I began to home teach my three children. I graduated my youngest in 2008. In 2004, I substitute taught for two local school districts. In spring 2008 I renewed ... read more

I enjoy working with students of all ages. Currently I teach Pre-Kindergarten, but have expensive experience working with middle school and high school students. I am very patient and understanding. I love to make learning fun and practical. The best moment in teaching is when a student has an "ah ha” moment where everything just clicks. I strive to make that difference in a student's life.

I earned a bachelors degree in Elementary Education with special attention to reading from Purdue University. In Aug. 2008-May 2009 I taught kindergarten at West Grove Elementary in Center Grove Community School Corporation. During this time I filled in for two teachers on extended leaves. This experience allowed me to gain knowledge about teaching and how to instruct diverse students. I learned many different teaching strategies, including differentiation and integration with multiple subjects. I learned many ways to help students with phonics, reading, writing and math skills at the kindergarten level. Towards the end of the school year when the kindergarten teachers returned I subbed throughout the district in all grade levels, K-6.
Teaching children is a passion of mine. All children are different, therefore they learn in many ways. I believe it is essential to include various ... read more

As a parent of two children in special education, I understand that children learn in different ways. I am very patient with children and understand firsthand how learning can be a challenge. I believe that all children can learn, but not every child learns in a non-traditional way. I believe that assessing students continually is the key to knowing what a child needs to in order to master subject material. By exploring all mediums available, learning can be achieved and increased confidence and self-esteem will follow.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my life I have possessed a continuing desire to obtain and pass on knowledge. This led me to the field of anthropology, which provides me the opportunity to be continuously learning, as well as teaching others. During my undergraduate education, I had the opportunity to tutor Spanish and English, both at a community college and privately. I found this to be an extremely rewarding experience, as it allowed me to pass on my passion for studying languages. As I pursued my bachelor’s degree, it was necessary to me to perfect my skills in reading and writing the English language.
I understand that each student has a unique learning style, and attempt to tailor my lessons to fit their needs. I believe that intimidation is the greatest obstacle to learning, and therefore my primary goal as an educator is to increase each student’s comfort level with the subject matter.

Students learn better when they see the relevance of the material they are studying to their own lives. In many subject areas this relevance is not obvious, and students may tune out as a result. I always use concrete examples that students can relate to when explaining a concept. For example, when discussing paternalism with college students I will often cite government regulation of tobacco and alcohol use to illustrate how the concept translates into laws that directly affect them. I am easy going and use humor to put my students at ease and hold their interest.
I have four years experience as an Associate Instructor of Political Science and Political Philosophy at the college level. In this capacity I frequently tutored students individually, helping them to grasp complicated concepts. Many students struggled more with the basics of term paper writing than the material itsel ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in foundation. Acquiring an education, whether general or specialized, is a process of building from the ground up. The understanding and related application of fundamentals must be mastered before advanced instruction can be offered and assimilated, absorbed. Proper accounting for transactions which ultimately lights the path for business success is rooted in theory. My teaching focus is in understanding the accepted theory supporting the application of technique.
I hold a bachelor degree in Finance with advanced graduate study in Accounting. I have passed the Uniform CPA exam and have over two decades of experience in private industry performing in a financial management capacity. In addition, I have taught accounting in a post secondary academic environment.
