I love teaching. I earned my BA before I was old enough to vote. While my classmates were in his/her senior year, I was teaching. Eventually I earned my M.Ed. in Reading, then started School Administration and Adult Education. In all these fields I find similar necessary skills: patience, co-operation among staff and colleagues, knowledge of subject matter, communication with the community and parents and a well defined curriculum. Moreover, I am a published author and a former writer with St. Louis Globe Democrat - Suburban Journals. As a favor to my students, I often evaluate papers for submission. These students will always earn excellent grades. I am a listener first and foremost. I want to know what my students expect from me and in what areas s/he regard as most essential to her/his success. I believe all people can learn and understand. It is a pleasure to watch students grow in

I have a teaching experience of more than 6 years. Teaching is my passion, so dedicate myself completely while teaching. I have an experience of teaching students of various age groups. At present I am teaching Maths in Aloha. While teaching I make it a point that the students have a very clear concept on the subject. After I make the student understand about the topic, I make it a point to provide them with enough of practice work based on that topic so that they are clear with all the confusions.

Hands on approach as well as auditory and visual learning styles. It depends on the student. A lot of consistence, it seems to help the kids become stable in their learning environment.

I have worked as a tutor, a teachers aide, student teaching, at an educational reading camp, and have had my own classroom for 2 years. I have worked with primarily urban children and children struggling in school.

I have always had a knack for the sciences and left the Midwest to follow my love of Marine Biology. While in school, I revisted my interest in the arts (painting, piano, and animation). It was then I realized I was passionate about so many topics and didn't want to limit myself to one thing! I've worked with kids throughout my entire life, whether I was teaching swim lessons, piano lessons, or tutoring. I took Spanish for 4 years in High School use it every chance I get. If I had the time I would take on degree after degree! Speaking to children of all ages comes naturally to me. My parents both love being teachers and have been in the game for over 30 years a piece! I traveled to schools to give presentations on my marine mammal experiences to grades K-8. I currently work for the Education Department at the Saint Louis ZOO where we strive to keep learning a blast! I believe l

I love to focus on the inner city, the students that society and education has turned their backs on. I love to teach by reward, such as earning points for completing a project that results in a reward. I love to teach the old methods and new methods that has been and that is now taught to our students. I have recently obtained B.S. in Biology with emphasis in Chemistry from University of Missouri St. Louis. I have proven in my academics to be diligent and conscientious. I am a hard-working, goal-driven individual with a passion for the field of biology, enjoying the experimentation process enormously. I thrive in laboratory environment and am dedicated to effective research.

I firmly believe that every student has great potential for learning. It is my job as an educator to meet them where they are and help them unlock that potential. I infuse humor, real-world connections, and personal experience into my lessons to make them more meaningful for my students. I have over eight years experience as a professional educator. It is a privilege to help students become more confident and feel successful in their abilities. I have worked with students of different ages and ability levels. I love helping students realize their personal potential and reach an understanding of something of which they didn't realize they were capable.

I begin instruction with an individual student by assessing his/her preferred learning style. To the extent possible, instruction proceeds through that style. I utilize the individual interests of the students to improve their reading skills. This has proved successful even with students previously thought to have already reached their full potential. In areas other than reading, I attempt to engage the student by connecting the subject matter to their own lives. In addition to improving academic skills, my goal is to improve self-esteem and build the student’s confidence in his/her ability to learn and to perform. I have 20 years of experience teaching children with special needs from preschool through high school. Although I have taught Reading, Composition, Math, American History, Biology, Earth Science, English, Civics and book education for Driver’s Education, my strength is i

Not everyone learns in the same way. I try to discern how the student I am tutoring learns best, whether it's by just doing examples, or visually by physically relating the material to something easier to understand. After I have found out how best to teach my student, I am able to move forward and help them to the best of my ability. In my tutoring experience, I have always been respectful and curteous to my students. I believe that students are much more likely to confident in their learning if they feel as if they are respected their teacher/tutor. I also make sure to be supportive even when the student is struggling and then compliment them when they make great strides. As a senior civil engineering student at Washington University, I have received an outstanding education, especially in math and science. I will graduate in May with a B.S. in Civil Engineering.

Tutored inner-city and disadvantaged students in elementary English and math for 1 year. TA’ed undergraduate finance class, options pricing, for 1 year. Co-lead two Bible studies groups for one year; one of which was composed of students from a primarily Caucasian student fellowship as well as students from an all-Asian fellowship. During my junior and senior year in college, I TA’ed a finance class called options pricing for two semesters. Options pricing was a difficult subject. I worked very hard to receive an A- for the course, which turned out to be my favor. I had insight to the intellectual hurdles other students had to overcome to master the material. So, teaching them came very naturally. In addition, I abandoned the lecture format for a very interactive teaching format. This allowed the students to ask many questions and allowed me to gage the level of comprehension from

Learning is the first step to success, and I am a big advocate on academics. I take pride in teaching and making sure that the student is learning properly. I believe that children learn differently and what makes a good teacher/tutor you have to be able to teach children in the way that they can learn. My teaching strategy is getting to know the student as a person first and a student second. Knowing them helps me to understand their struggles in school and also with the class work. I will design a curriculum that will fit each student and their needs. As a tutor my overall goal is for the student to overcome their struggles in academics, as well as gain the confidence to succeed. My current occupation is working as a paralegal. However, I am looking for opportunities to transition into the field of education. My passion and natural abilities are best suited for nurturing and teaching c
