A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning (children generate knowledge and meaning from their experiences). I am available to help your child find academic success in any area of learning. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education.
As a High Honors graduate in Early Childhood Education, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two degrees, BS in Business Adminis ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I graduated cum laude from the Communication Studies program at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). UCLA is a renowned research university and as a result I gained extensive experience in research, presenting, reading and writing relating to the social sciences. Also, I graduated with a minor in Spanish language and have been studying the subject for ten years. In high school I tutored students in Advance Placement Spanish classes. During college, I participated in a mentoring program which aimed to prepare high school students for the college admissions process.
I am a friendly and easy to talk to person. I strive to make my tutoring and mentoring sessions into conversations rather than a one-way lecture. When tutoring or mentoring, I usually let the student lead the session so that I can assess where his or her strengths and weaknesses lie. I like to let them take th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Although I enjoy research and have developed a strong background in education, I find the most joy when presenting new information to my peers or finding small opportunities to teach science lessons. It is my personal belief that all students have the ability to succeed in their personal goals, and it is my job as an educator to help students reach and exceed their potential. As a tutor, I look forward to working with students to not only understand the basic concepts of science, but also develop a sense of passion for learning and a work ethic that will serve them the rest of their lives. I am hard working and passionate about teaching others about science, and look forward to showing students more about the world around them.

I love using different styles of teaching to see which way each individual learns best. I believe all students are capable of learning the same curriculum, but may need to be shown or approached in different ways. Some students may need a hands-on approach and some may gain more knowledge through their books. Which ever way they are gaining the most from is what I will focus on. I am excited to use my skills and experience to help educate our future.
I have a great deal of experience in educating students. I have earned my BA from Northern Illinois University in Communications, and I also have earned my MAT from Rockford College in Education. I have had my Type-03 Elementary Teaching Certificate since April of 2009. I have worked as a special education aide, student taught sixth grade language arts, and in the past year I have been a substitute teacher in Winnebago and Ogl ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am best in a one-on-one environment and can acclimate to most personalities. I love learning and care very much about passing that on. I attempt to find each student's "barrier" to learning and customize my approach. I am especially good in the math subjects.
With my undergraduate degree in hand I taught Marketing and Sales at Whiteside Area Vocational Center in Sterling, IL, for eight years. I left teaching to enter the corporate world working for several companies, i.e., National Manufacturing Company in Sterling, Amerock Corporation in Rockford, and Greenlee-Textron in Rockford. I moved from a product manager to national account manager. Following my corporate experience I returned to tutoring students, K-12, in Princeton, IL, in math up through geometry, and specializing in tutoring students who could not go to school either due to an accident or illness.

My teaching style is learner-centered, constructivist, and practical. I believe that a teacher must get to know her students on a personal level to facilitate the best learning. By ascertaining a student’s current knowledge and beliefs about a particular subject, I am able to help students advance to their fullest potential. If students understand the applicability of a concept or skill, they are much more likely to be engaged in learning it. Thus, I give students as much “real-world” practice as possible, so they can see the value in the subject they are learning. I am most able to tutor students in all aspects of English and language arts, but I can also tutor in the social sciences like history, psychology, sociology, and geography.
My experience includes teaching college English for three years. The courses I taught (Composition I and II) required me to know the mechanics of En ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from a small liberal arts college. There I had my eyes opened to a whole new world of thinking and learning. I received my Bachelors degree in physical education with a minor in coaching. I have a special teaching certificate from the state of Illinois that allows me to teach K-12. I have 6 years of experience working with children of all age, race, and backgrounds. I have been substituting for the past two years at various school districts at various positions.
My teaching style is to get all the children involved with the lesson. I feel that students learn better when they are the ones doing the problem at hand and I am there to help them out along the way. I am very patient with children and do not mind going over a problem 10 times until they get it. I feel that all children learn differently, so I come into each child with an open mind to help them.

My classrooms involve learning-centered groups in a workshop approach. I find that students are encouraged by the examples of other writers and learners at their own levels. I provide a great deal of individual feedback on assignments. I encourage the imitation of examples in writing and the discovery of other writing styles. I am sensitive to the needs and learning needs of each student.
I have always been a reader and a writer. In my degree work, I learned how to inspire others to read critically and write well. I have many years experience as a college-level instructor. I also work locally with high school students at my church. In addition, I have worked at Writing Centers at several institutions. I also have helped with successful grant writing for several local organizations.
