I love teaching to helps others succeed. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to help students understand the material, not just do the work because that's what I said they should do. I'm a hands-on teacher. I strive to teach the way the student learns best. As an undergraduate student at BYU-Idaho, I was involved in many tutoring experiences. I tutored for basic computer classes and beginning accounting classes. Since graduating, I have received 6+ years of addition work experiences in the accounting and computer fields to solidify my education attained in school. I excellent in grammar, reading, critical analysis, paper writing, advanced accounting, taxes, and basic computer skills.

I love working with all ages but I believe K-12 fits me best. I try to encourage students to do and be their very best by telling them "they can do it" & being optimistic. I'm a very compassionate person and believe all students have great potential and it shows with how I converse with all students. Personally, I find helping others help themselves is very rewarding and uplifting. I love to see student's eyes light up when they solve a problem or understand a concept... This is why I continue to be available to tutor students. I earned a bachelor of science degree in International Business & Finance from Arizona State University. Some of my coursework completed in school includes:finance, accounting, international business, operations management, business writing, philosophy, political science, & english. During the last 18 months of undergrad I tutored high school students in algebra I

I love working with kids, especially the difficult ones. I find success in being able to help kids learn a subject that they have been told by many that it is difficult. Math is easy with the right patience, and ability to explain in many different ways. I have both. Also, you have to love what you do, and teaching math is something that I love! After spending 16 years coaching, mentoring and training individuals in 2 fortune 500 companies I have returned to school at the University of Utah to complete by Bachelors in Mathematics. I am currently a senior taking two classes and will graduate in June 2011. With my years teaching young adults - adults it has given me an immense amount of patience and listening skills to be able to understand what each student needs. I have personally tutored mathematics to individuals as well.

As a college student, I understand the difficulties and frustrations that arise from feeling ignorant at times. It is important to me, when I teach, that my student feels reassured when he or she does not understand something. First, I explain principles on a level that I initially judge to be adequate for the student. Then, if the student does not understand, I come up with a more simplified explanation, and continue in this fashion until the concept is grasped. Throughout this process I always feel that it is very important that the student understands that there is nothing wrong with not knowing how the task at hand is completed or even approached. In 2003 I returned home from a two-year church service mission in Romania. My time in Romania was mostly spent in the homes of ordinary families where I taught parent and child alike the principles of Christianity. Upon my return I attended

I am just getting ready to graduate from the University of Utah with a degree in Mathematics and an minor in Physics. I have extensive knowledge of Mathematics and good knowledge of science in general, as I have taken many chemistry, biology and physics classes while at the University. I have fair grammatical skills, as I have had the opportunity to work in an undergraduate research program, which required me to write research papers. I also have experience tutoring high school and junior high school students. I worked as a tutor in the Avid program for Granite School District last year. I have also tutored students privately in Mathematics. I am a believer in the socratic method. As an Avid tutor we were taught to employ this method to help students understand concepts. I think that it is better to ask questions, and guide students' thinking rather than just giving them the answer, or t

I have always loved working with mathematics and numbers. I experienced different teaching styles in high schools and found that when you work directly with students they learn the best. I believe working on the blackboard and playing games with the students is the best ways for them to learn in classroom stitutations and working one on one in tutoring them As a master level graduate, I learned that I love to gain knowledge, the more I learned the more, I wanted to help other learn as well. I have always had a love for numbers and formulas and have enjoyed teaching accounting, algebra, finance, & economics.

My experience teaching English has taught me that everyone has the ability to learn. The challenge is to identify the needs and style of the learner and adapt to them. I had students who were mostly visual learners and needed everything written down or printed on handouts; I had students who were mainly auditory learners and needed to have everything said to them, sometimes two or even three times in different ways. Some of my students wanted to be able to speak with their boss or participate in meetings held in English; others needed to write or proofread documents in English. My main goal in teaching is to figure out what my students want and need and help them achieve their goals. Teaching English was a very learner-centered approach, with the students fully engaged and participating throughout the lesson. I think that tutoring should be the same way, with the focus on how the s

I enjoy working with children. I have had a great life and am in a position where I can take some time to teach. I have pursued my own life experiences and have a perspective that allows me to input a calm and passionate insight into what learning and pursuing dreams can bring. I have tutored and worked with ESL students in Silicon Valley, CA. I have worked for NBC and Nickelodeon Television, a .com in San Francisco, sold Real Estate, and worked in advertising. I am in Salt Lake City to be with my family. I am looking to give back to children and for a great opportunity to learn.

As a Duke graduate, I have had a very well rounded liberal arts education and am thus well acquainted with a variety of subjects. While my degree is in Spanish literature and history, I have had experience tutoring students in math and English as well. I love working with students one on one to develop a tailored approach that will work best for the student. Once we discover together the most appropriate method to access the material, I find that students thrive quickly. I am patient and determined and I thoroughly enjoy watching my students succeed with my help.

During my education experience at Northern Arizona University, I learned early on that I have a passion for education and for teaching. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree and graduated Summa Cum Laude at the top of my class. Through observing and student teaching experiences I learned techniques for teaching students science, English, math, reading, art and music. I also gained valuable grammatical skills through writing various research papers and essays during my studies. I absolutely 100% believe that ALL children can learn! I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to provide a healthy learning environment, one in which the student feels safe, secure, accepted and valued. I believe in self-fulfilling prophecies. If a child is encouraged to learn and knows that they can - they will. I feel very privileged to have had an opportunity to have created these types of sit

In preparation for college, I knew that in order to get into the kind of small private colleges I was looking for, earning a high enough score on the standardized exams like the SAT and ACT was very important. Although I scored very well on both tests, my writing and reasoning skills underwent great improvement in my college's intensive honors program for accelerated studies. Since 2005 I have been tutoring full time, and teaching in small classrooms for the Anchorage school district. I have had great success with a variety of students and types of curriculums in all subject matters. My teaching style varies depending on the type of students I am teaching to because I believe that each student has a particular learning style that they find easier. I think that it is important to find the types of learning that each student finds easiest to understand, and tailor the course so that it wor

My direct experience is with adult learners. In my current position at USA TODAY, one of the largest newspapers in the country, I am heavily involved with technology training. Not only do I work with developing new training materials (from PowerPoint to video to documentation), I also do live classroom training. I tutored younger students for my college internships where I worked with fifth graders. Both short internships were fulfilling, but I ultimately opted to go to the corporate world. I try to give my students the tools and resources they need to move beyond what they learn in the classroom. It is not enough that a student is engaged in the classroom. He or she needs to be able to apply what they have learned to real world situations. It is always my goal to help students see how to connect what they learn in class to the real world.
