College Student Home for the Summer Looking to Tutor

Exploratory and encouraging. I encourage people and children to find answers to solve problems on their own, while giving them direction if needed.
A lot of my time is spent babysitting, and while doing that I have helped several of the kids out with homework. I also have spent a lot of time doing unpaid tutoring for classmates of mine at school. In the social sciences category that I have checked off, the specific areas that it includes are psychology and criminal justice.

Hi! I'm looking forward to working this summer, and I am especially excited about the opportunity to tutor online! I graduated from TJ High in 2011, and I'm now attending High Point University as a Strategic Communication and Human Relations double major. I am also working toward a minor in Marketing. Throughout high school, I earned a 3.92 grade point average, which means in my 8 semesters, I only finished 2 classes with a grade lower than A. During this time, I took 7 AP courses (World History, Psychology, US History, Calculus AB/BC, Literature, Environmental Science, and European History), which allowed me to enter college more than a semester ahead of most of my peers.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and interacting with students of all ages and ability levels. I believe that each person is unique and receives information in a unique way. Tutoring should be a joint process of discovering a student's learning style and tailoring information so that the student is able to learn and thrive. In my opinion, teaching should focus on the individual strengths of the learner and not just their challenges. The student should learn to use their strengths to not only overcome their challenges, but also to fall in love with learning and gain self confidence.
As a holder of a Bachelor's in Social Work, I have a great deal of experience mentoring and tutoring students of various ages and abilities. I have worked with adult learners and high school age students with disabilities. I have a strong background in English and Grammar due to an extensive amount of college level paper ... read more

I believe that learning through hands-on experience is the best way to fully comprehend material. I want to interest students in academics. To accomplish this, a teacher must show how math, or reading is useful; how anything can be exciting. I want to make learning fun. And I use a variety of tactics to accomplish this.
I recently graduated from Bard College, a selective liberal arts school in New York. I have taken classes in a variety of subjects including biology, french, history, and writing. I recently completed a 90 page thesis. I have excellent critical thinking and writing skills, which have served me well as a student. As a tutor, I strive to engage my students in thinking complexly about the topic at hand. I have experience tutoring middle school aged children in music, math, and writing. I also have experience working with preschool aged children.

A Little Bit About Me...

With all of my experience and education, I have had the opportunity to work with all facets of children; from those who require a great deal of help, to those who might just need a little more challenge then what their work was providing them. Having worked with large and diverse groups of children I have assisted in English, math, science, and social studies from grade school to high school. I am very dedicated and passionate about what I do; therefore the goal of the child would become my goal; only ending in accomplishment.
Not every method works for every child; with one exception, patience. I demonstrate and exemplify patience. If a child feels as though they are in an atmosphere where they are safe, free of ridicule and bias, then they are willing to perform. This process can be a give take scenario however. So, some flexibility is required as well, but eventually the stude ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

First, in order for the students to best understand the material, I break it down to their level. For subjects like math, it is simple to develop a step by step method for the students to write down and follow. Once the students have mastered the steps they are motivated to continue with the material because it seems straightforward. It is also important to have the students connect to the material; if they understand how the information is used in every day life then they will become more excited and motivated to learn. Once the students have a firm understanding of the information, they are assigned independent problems. These problems will help the students begin to think on their own and in turn own the material.
In college, I tutored grammar school, high school and college students in various math and science courses. Subjects included algebra, calculus, chemistry, and p ... read more

School is my passion and my goal is to help students reach their maximum potential. It has been my experience that students often dislike subjects in which they do not excel. It is my goal to help students overcome their learning challenges and find the same passion I do in education. I am patient, considerate, and have a sense of humor. I have found great success in performing an interactive activity which determines that method a student learns best (auditory, visual, etc) before starting to tutor. I have been blessed with many considerate professors who have helped me through my college career and I look forward to helping others.

As an online graduate at Kaplan University, I quickly became aware of my priorities. Students seeking help often emailed other classmates for assistance. I was often told there were very few students who responded to their emails; however, I was one of them. I earned my Associate degree through Allegany College of Maryland. I enjoyed this area of study so much that I decided to transfer to Kaplan University Online and continue my study in Business Administration with concentration in Accounting. I attended graduation in Chicago, IL, where I learned no matter what obstacles in life you face you can continue your education if your mind is set to do it. My overall GPA at Allegany College of Maryland was 3.6 and 3.5 at Kaplan University Online.

More About This Tutor...

I am a demonstrative teacher and leader. I believe in the theory of "model, action, and talk" style of presentation of concepts. My creative background lends itself well to keeping a student's initiative and inspiration to a high level so that they are actually motivated to perform at their best. My personality traits are that I am disciplined and a believer in seeking the truth. My personal goals at this point are to inspire other children to want to learn so that learning and writing are not perceived as boring and meaningless and that through writing, the student will want to continue past the assignment and invoke writing and communication through creative channels into their daily lives so that this becomes a "life-skill."

More About This Tutor...

I love the art of teaching. I work with the student on an individual level, tailoring my methods to achieve maximum learning comprehension. Usually, I prefer to have the student figure things out for themselves using guided questions and logic. I feel that one of the most effective methods is, rather than lecture the student and provide the answer, I instead provide the basic materials of the problem and encourage them to figure things out progressively. I believe that anyone can learn if taught in the way that sits best with their learning style and thought processes. I hope to aid in creating a better future, laid foundationally by teachers that understand the way individual students learn.
In Full Sail, I was exposed to a style of teaching not unlike an automatic car wash; a quick brush through the curriculum, and the student was expected to come out knowledgeable about the ... read more

I started my college education at Stanford University but finished up Cal State Stanislaus University with a degree in physical education and biology. I then taught primarily language arts and science at the middle school level for three years. After satisfying my educational wanderlust, I am now re-entering the educational field. I consider myself to be an extremely strong teacher, particularly in the language arts field.
When I was in the classroom I prided myself in "getting the educational job" done while at the same time having some fun. I have always had a strong rapport with students and believe I am adept at transferring my knowledge and educational talents. I consider myself to be a strong motivator without being overbearing.

More About This Tutor...

Because of my experience in teaching my own children, I have discovered that no child is too young to learn. Often people will not consider an infant or toddler a "functioning human being" until the child can speak. This is so inaccurate! I taught one of my daughters to read at age four. My teaching style is to engage the student on a personal level through cheerful conversation and sharing of interests, then to assess learning styles, strengths, and challenges. Children perform well when expectations are complimentary to them, and when they are given the tools and nurture to accomplish their dreams.
I graduated from high school as number eleven in rank out of 248. I often assisted other students in both high school and college. Later, as a homeschooling mother of four, I taught all of my children all subjects through the eighth grade level. I just returned from the island of Saipa ... read more

When it comes to teaching, regardless of age, I find it effective to hone in on the individuals thought process to adapt my teaching style to fit with this. I feel that learning should be done in a way in which the student will enjoy themselves, and actually look forward to learning more. I myself am a very enthusiastic learner and I try to have that reflected in those whom I am teaching. From many years of working with a very needy population, my level of patience is extremely high, and I never feel it is alright to abandon the hope that one can learn. I also have gained the ability to present ideas and concepts in various ways to ensure the message comes across clearly and effectively.

While studying Spanish at Messiah College, I completed my major course requirements ahead of schedule and began to tutor other students in my sophomore year. I studied abroad in Quito, Ecuador, and I've traveled to various places in Mexico, which has fostered in me an appreciation for Hispanic culture as well as expertise in the language. I have tried to inspire the same enthusiasm in students of Spanish who may or may not have had the opportunity to travel to a Spanish-speaking country. As the only tutor at Messiah College to have completed nearly all the upper-level Spanish classes offered, I had the pleasure of working with students of every level. I also tutored students in study skills classes, helping them to develop good reading, organizational, and research habits.
