May I be a personal tutor for you or your child? I have been successfully tutoring for over 12 years. I have some glowing letters of recommendation, and among the highest ratings in this region.

I have experience tutoring in high school age students in grammar, composition writing, and journalism. In addition my years of experience as a journalist in Columbus and Elyria has given me the needed perspective of diversity as well as provided the necessary experience of managing others. I have worked with young people at all levels of understanding of the English language, from needed help with figuring out the difference from a verb and an adverb, to understanding the purpose of an independent clause and a dependent clause.

Looking for opportunities!

Personal and direct. I am extremely patient.
I have been a probation officer for 8+ years. I have worked directly with clients in a teaching/learning atmosphere. I see myself as more of a teacher than a law enforcement officer. I construct detailed case plans and work with clients specifically towards goals each week. I have built a great deal of patience in this regard. I have worked with sex offenders, mentally disordered adults, and high risk offenders.

Because I enjoy the learning environment and have been in one for 16 years, I have learned much about it. Everyone learns differently, and I feel that it is important to understand the student's easiest way to learn in order to proceed. I believe offering students the chance to use their imagination and to encourage creativity is the best approach to education. Whether it is through mental imaging or hands-on learning, each individual student deserves a chance at better education.
I am a recent college graduate and I am looking for employment within my field. I have two years experience tutoring an elementary student. I worked with a student in second grade and tutored her in both Math and English. Because her mother and I communicated regularly, she was able to tell me of improvements and areas of subjects that needed more attention. I am very enthusiastic about being able to w ... read more

As an Ivy league graduate, I was driven to acheive a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree in education and masters degree in education with a major in mathematics. I have also worked in the business field and am able to teach students today how to apply mathematics in the real world. Recently I have been teaching as a substitute teacher in 3 counties and I have been doing alot of tutoring as well.
I am certified to teach secondary mathematics and social studies by the state of OHIO. I also enjoy teaching college students and tutoring on a weekly basis.

Over many years as an IT person, I worked with clients, one on one, teaching them how to get their computer to do what they want it to do. Often times, the client would be very frustrated. I needed to first, relieve the frustration – then determine what needed to be done to rectify the situation (through a question and answer processes). Additionally, positive reinforcement is needed throughout the learning process to allow for a more affirmative result.
I am very patient and concerned. My major objective is to identify the area that needs to be addressed. I often also use comparisons to 'real world' similarities in order to make the point. It is also necessary to understand how a person perceives, rationalizes and applies information, as every person is different in this process. The relationship that is developed between myself and the student must be on an even level, in a ... read more

I am a pretty flexible teacher, utilizing technology and on-line resources frequently today. Earlier in my career I did more traditional lecture with a dose of Socratic method mixed in. I believe a key is to relate the material to something the students knows and cares about.
I have taught for 30 Years. The first 9 years at Cleveland Central Catholic, mostly traditional Social Studies classes with a few honors level. Since 1989 I have been at Fairview HS, teaching At-risk and regular classes in Social Studies; Government, World History and American History.

A Little Bit About Me...

I thoroughly enjoyed the Marketing and Public Relations field, but I never could have imagined the fulfillment I would recieve within education. I love to challenge my students and show them just how much they can achieve through hard work and dedication. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a child's face when they achieve a good grade or positive praise. Each time I tutor a child, my day is brightened- how lucky am I!!??
After working in the Marketing/PR field for 5 years, I relocated to Puerto Rico to be with my husband. Not having a solid foundation of the language, I could not obtain a job in my previous field. It was at this time that I discovered the world of education. I began substitute teaching at the Department of Defense School and continued doing that for one year. We were then relocated to Savannah, GA and I was hired by a private school to teach 6th and ... read more

I feel my style of teaching is one of being a facilitator. I choose to interact with the student by asking questions so enabling them to reach the answer through their own thinking processes. The excitement of seeing their confidence build as they realize they can figure out problems independently is the reward of being an educator. I believe my job is to guide and support the student.
My teaching experience started teaching in a pre-school with 4 year olds. I then taught 3rd grade for 1 year and kindergarten for 9 years. When I updated my certificate (just in the last year) I did some teaching in a mildly handicapped resource room.

Having worked for 40 years in the military, for-profit and not-for-profit organizations and a city government I retired early to begin a new career in teaching and tutoring. I have substituted in urban and suburban schools covering topics for students from pre-K through 12th grade. I have been teaching now for 4 years and tutoring for 1 year. It is a thrill to be able to guide students through the learning process. And it is a constant challenge to keep current and prepare for substitute positions. I have a B.S. in Business Administration which I earned in the evenings while on active duty in the Army. And an MBA with dual majors in marketing and health care administration.
I enjoy working with students of all ages. My teaching style is nurturing and patient. Everyone learns at different speeds and no one approach works for all students. With children the involvement of a ... read more

I have a variety of experience. Most of my tutoring experience is with older students, aged 15 or older. However, I feel that I could work with younger kids as well. I love learning, and I get excited when a student fully grasps the material. I try and reinforce a teachers method of teaching. However, if repetition is not the issue, than I try and explain topics in different ways with lots of examples.I believe a tutor can really be a great supplement to the classroom teacher.
I graduated from Hope College in three years with a BS in Biology, a BA in Chemistry, and a minor in Classical Studies. I tutored throughout high school and college. I have tutored Latin (both into and upper level courses), Math (high school), history (high school,) Mythology (college), Biology (both intro and upper level courses), and Chemistry (both intro and upper level courses). In college, I was also a T ... read more

As a high school student, I attended Tiffin University to gain college experience and credit earlier than expected. After graduating from Clyde High school, I went on to Ohio State Mansfield, where I majored in psychology and special education. I am currently a full time student at Ashford University online. I am studying to become an advocate for special needs persons and children. I have been tutoring students professtionally for the past year. I specialize in reading and math. I have experience with k-12. I am also comfortable with special needs and developmental disabilities.
My teaching style is basic. I feel it is most important for a student to grasp the basics before they can move on to more complicated subject material. I also am a strong believer of parental involvement. A parent knows their children's learning patterns best. I like to use different approaches. Activities ... read more

I love helping others!! I feel that if an individual loves to help, aide, and teach others then the ability to teach comes naturally. I am patient, easy going, and willing to do what it takes to make sure that all concepts are understood before attempting to move forward.
With my level of collegiate expertise, I have always been the go to person when a question arose from friends, family, or other fellow classmates concerning help with an assignment. Having a bachelor’s degree in Information Technology Systems and an MBA in Executive Business Administration allows me to be pretty versatile when it comes to education related questions. I helped a friend with some high school and collegiate mathematics to graduate high school and assimilate into college. The duration of my assistance lasted a little over a year.
