Testing Strategies Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in San Antonio, TX

I have taken courses in advanced testing strategies, and I've given several presentations on test taking skills. I have a BA in Psychology and an MA in Counseling. I had the opportunity during my master's degree to teach several college courses and give many presentations. I also counseled children, adolescents, and adults in both mental health and academic/career settings. During my time as a graduate assistant, I had the honor of co-authoring a chapter for the 16th volume of Advances in Motivation. I also edited this book for publication. I have a minor in Spanish, and I feel very comfortable tutoring all elementary and most high school classes as well as some college/university courses. I often give guest presentations and Career Point College on study skills and test taking strategies and techniques. For many years prior to and during my college career I also provided extensive babys

My missionary experiences informed me of one idea: people are important and they have to be considered person-by-person. Those experiences have led me to take a teaching philosophy and teaching practice that is person-centric. I work to understand the rhetorics, theories, practices, and experiences that inform each student and the classroom as a whole. In practice, this manifests in extensive talking and co-writing (on daily assignments) to assess where exactly these students are at and how I can help them. I believe that each student, each individual, has the desire and capacity to learn, so I am constantly working to demystify composition so they can truly see how language can inform them and make their lives better. Applicable to this job, I remember my high school years and the processes I had during my English and Composition assignments. I completed an English Bachelor’s degree, wi

As I attended school, I had a passion for learning and helping others. My parents are not educated but supported my education. I have always been one to help others and therefore chose a career in Psychology/Sociology and then pursued an educational background. I currently teach online college courses and continue to assist other working students and families achieve their goals. As a graduate student, my graduate research thesis was focused on research projects that provided students the opportunity to succeed with this in mind, my main focus was that "All student can succeed and can learn at their level when provided the opportunity." In providing tutorials for students, my focus is to make sure that these students are provided with effective instructional strategies that would assist them to meet their educational goals. As a teacher, I feel that my main focus is to assist students

Working with kids is my fascination. I believe that teaching children should not be standing up and lecturing or simply explaining something. Its about getting to know the students, making the students feel important and unique in their own special way and most importantly I believe a teacher should be a role model. The teacher must adjust his or her teaching approach to the way the student will learn what’s being taught to them not the other way around. Everything should be done in the interest of the children and their academic success. All students are different and they all have different learning styles. It is the teacher’s duty to find out what leaning style the student holds and target that teaching approach. Working hard and always driven is how I was able to obtain a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Bilingual 4th – 8th grade. Sul Ross State

I am an extremely relaxed, nurturing, personable and humorous instructor, experienced at teaching on both the junior high, high school and college levels. I have been gratified by the highly positive teacher evaluations I've received, which I am happy to share with potential clients. I usually become not just a teacher or tutor but a mentor and friend to students truly wanting to learn and grow. As an empty nester,I have boundless energy, love and creativity to share with young people, and hope you will become one of them. Despite being over 50, my students invariably tell me I'm "cool." I plead guilty as charged! As a veteran, award-winning magazine writer, published in dozens of national and regional periodicals, I am comfortable writing in any mode, medium and style, and excel at transmitting the secrets of this craft to students of all ages and ability levels. I have also worked as a

In my last three years of teaching I was the Inclusion/Resource teacher, however, I also worked with some Life-Skills students, as well as doing some 4th grade co-teaching. I am comfortable in working with at-risk students and understand the importance of having a rapport with them. My first year as a teacher I taught ESL at a catholic high school. I would love to tutor you or your child because I can help you/them grow and become an independent learner. I would like to stress my thanks for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. I design the lesson to the learning preference of the student. I incorporate technology, visual, tactile and kinesthetic teaching styles. This gives the student the maximum opportunity to learn. If a student is having trouble with reading comprehension there are various skill sets a child learns in order to help with standardized tests.

I've always had a love of learning, and have naturally slipped into an informal tutor role with friends. During high school I took several AP tests and at the same time earned the International Baccalaureate diploma, so I understand very well the pressures involved. My two bachelor's degrees (Computer Science & Engineering) give me a strong foundation in math and science. I have experience as a teaching assistant for undergraduates. In addition, for several summers I participated as a volunteer in my public library's reading program, working one-on-one with children of all ages. I feel quite confident in English thanks to my habit of recreational reading and writing, along with extensive experience writing papers, reports, and the like. I firmly believe that you learn best when you're having fun. Once a topic fascinates you, your mind automatically engages more, which helps you rememb
