I specialize in understanding individual challenges and struggles and adapting my teaching and providing clarifying examples. My explanations are thorough and enhanced by my focus on listening to people. I'm currently a student at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota and I've covered many subjects in my 15 years of education. I've learned many of them well enough to teach them to my younger sister, who has ensured I review every subject two years after I complete it, rather than forget it forever. I have also helped many of my classmates understand various concepts as we learned them, which allowed me to improve my own understanding and my ability to explain things in ways that differed from the ways that didn't work coming from teachers.

My goal is to provide the best educational experience possible for any student I would teach. I would do my best to vary my approach for different subjects, and to provide a variety of experiences and settings. My desire would be that the student would enjoy learning as much as possible, because the more they enjoy it, the more motivated they will be to learn, not only when I am with them, but also on their own. I am very relaxed and friendly, and although my style is somewhat informal, I would still expect excellence from my students. Ultimately, I want every student of mine to be successful, as defined by them and their parents. I have shown that I am both an excellent student, and very well qualified to teach others. I have two bachelor degrees, a BA in German and a BSN in Nursing, which has provided me with a well-rounded education in both the liberal arts and the sciences. I d

As a high school and college student, I was very active in my community as a tutor, mentor, teacher, and coach. I have earned a bachelor degree, BS in Exercise and Sports Science. This degree and other core courses have given me an opportunity to learn and understand many areas including math, science, reading, and history (social studies). As a college graduate, I have worked closely with literacy and classroom teachers with reading and literacy programs. I also have been a program assistant for academic mentoring programs; therefore I understand the importance of individual assistance for each child. Through my years of coaching and teaching, I have learned that a teacher must adapt his/her teaching style to the learning style of the student. A child can learn in different ways, and it is my job to find the most effective way to help the child learn. Growing up in a large family wh

I love helping people succeed. I have an ability to show someone a new way of looking at things, which is sometimes the only thing keeping a person from understanding. I also have a great ability at reading someone and noticing when they don't understand. Sometimes people are too embarrassed to speak up and ask for help, even when I'm there for that exact reason. I think that everyone has the ability to learn anything, they just sometimes need someone to explain things to them in a new way. I also worked part-time as a supplemental tutor for students of many ages. At two different tutoring centers I taught reading and mathematics to elementary aged students. I also taught reading, writing, Algebra, Geometry, and study skills to high school aged students. I also helped students of all ages with homework from school in many subjects including; Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Chemistry,

Personally I believe in guiding the student through a topic until they reach self-discovery. I absolutely love watching a student grasp a challenging topic especially when I have directed them through the material and they reach the answers on their own. This facilitates a student's personal satisfaction/self-esteem and enhances their excitement for the given subject. This is incredibly rewarding for myself and the student. I am extremely passionate about all topics related to the biological sciences. I earned a bachelor's degree in Biology. During my undergraduate education I had the opportunity to enhance my ability to educate others and share the fascinating world of biology. I was honored with a teaching position in Osteology and tutored students in Cell biology and statistics. I had phenomenal success with my students and found myself tutoring fellow biology students in my own

I have always strived to excel in my education, and I want to eventually become a college chemistry professor. I have earned two bachelor degrees from St. Cloud State University, a BS in Biochemistry and a BS in Biology, which have allowed me to obtain a very large base of knowledge in both chemistry and biology. I excelled in Organic Chemistry in school, and performed Organic Chemistry research as an undergraduate. I also was a teaching assistant in college, and taught pre-lab lectures and assisted students with homework and labs. My specialties are basic chemistry and biology, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry. My goal is to provide information in small steps which eventually lead to the mastery of a subject. I include problem-solving and critical thinking in my teaching, since this will eventually lead to an independent student who really understands the subject. Even though my te

Learning should be fun and engaging; a necessity for effective learning. Because each student has unique academic needs, I prefer to reach students on their level with a differentiated approach. Lesson plans I create are based on students' strengths, weaknesses, and learning preferences. My goal for students is that they experience learning in a way that builds confidence and self-efficacy. I have also worked with children who have needs in specialized areas. If your student has difficulty resulting from ADD/ADHD, I can help! As a recent Liberty University graduate having earned a B.S. in Multidisciplinary studies (emphases in Education, Counseling and Computer Science), and several years teaching experience, I offer students excellent academic support. As a tutor you will find me creative, friendly, motivating, and encouraging. I feel it is important to not only assist in academic chall

I have just completed my master's degree combining courses from both biology and anthropology. My thesis concentrated on awareness of nature and conservation education in a rural community of Costa Rica. I have also gained considerable experience as a teaching assistant at SDSU for the last 2 years. This allowed me to create and present lectures for undergraduate students, proctor exams, grade research papers and other assignments and interact with students. I truly enjoy helping people learn and feel that I have excellent skills in teaching and student advising. It has been my experience, both as a student and a teacher, that people learn best with positive reinforcement and patience. When assisting students I make it my goal to explain the subject matter step by step and to avoid confusion. I also know that students are more comfortable when they feel you are truly engaged in their lea

I feel every learner has the capacity to succeed if empowered with knowledge and a belief in his or her abilities. Recognizing and building upon a learner's strengths and utilizing his or her assets creates a foundation for continued learning and excitement about education. I am a creative and energetic teacher and my teaching and tutoring methodology involves relationship-building, encouragement, and continual support. I began tutoring my peers while earning my Bachelor of Arts degree in English, philosophy, and writing. Following my graduation in 2000, I continued teaching in a professional capacity, working abroad in Thailand and Japan, teaching non-native English speakers of various ages (approximately 4-65 years of age). I was responsible for curriculum and lesson planning, evaluating student compositions, and conducting examinations. Upon returning to America, I pursued and obtaine

I have enjoyed watching children learn especially when they take what they have learn to the next level.I like to use a questioning approach when working with student to let them discover the answers for themselves. I have also learned volunteering in school how important it is to learn the fundamentals before going on th harder material. I have work in the Chemical Industry for over 15 years and in that time I have learn to run experiments, do calculations and write reports. I have had to you and learn extensively about chemistry and and had to math to understand and interpret the results. I have worked a group called the Tronix team were I would work with middle school students building boom boxes from lunch boxes. I have also worked with a group call ACES which was a after school tutoring program. I am current working on my Life Science Licensure and how to be teacher by January of 2
