Desktop Publishing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Scottsdale, AZ

I have a social learning style where I like to make sure the learner(s) are comfortable before asking them to integrate new information. I like to find out what they know, how they feel about the technology they are using and what they want to be able to do. I have taught (both in person and online) people that believed they were completely unable to use technology as well as people that believed they had nothing left to learn. I have work with K-12 students, educators, administrators and parents for over ten years, helping them learn how to use both Mac and PC computers, Google Applications, video production and the iPad. I have an ability to talk to people at a wide variety of levels and can translate computer geek into human. I can provide computer training to individuals or groups, including schools and businesses.

My teaching style is very patient and creative. I believe that children, teenagers and young adults have their own unique way of thinking and learning. I am very intuitive and understanding in what type of person someone is and which approah would be best with that person. I think that getting to the level of the student and building on what they are already familiar is the best way to create a lasting understanding of a subject. As a student at Arizona State University and during my 8 years of work experience, I enjoy mentoring and teaching my peers and subordinates. While I have no professional tutoring experience, many of my friends and coworkers come to me with questions on their homework or problems at work. I have been told that I have a very good way of explaining and teaching. I have a strong motivation to work with children and young adults as I feel like it is such a great age

As a life long athlete, I understand the importance of a team. Parents, tutors, and children must work together to succeed. I also realize the importance of strategy; each team has a different method to achieve their goal. Be it verbal, visual, audial, physical, there are multitudes of different ways to have success inside and outside of the classroom. My personal success would be to teach the children HOW to study through tutoring, a strategy they could take with them throughout their academic and professional careers. Besides family, faith, and good health, there is nothing I value more than my education. As a graduate of the University of Notre Dame, I have earned a bachelor degree in Science-Business. This new field incorporates the work of a Biology major with the fundamental requirements of a Business major. I am now in the process of applying to dental school, thus have extensive

My teaching style is highly interactive. I developed and taught an undergraduate seminar at UCLA that was based on role-playing and critical thinking of historical events through intense discussion among students. As a tutor, I ask my students a lot of questions in order to tease out their knowledge and opinion on the subject. I believe that I do not have any right answers but I do have access to resources that will enable students to find the answers that are right for them. My teaching style leads to measurable results by focusing on the process of learning. Due to my strong researching and writing skills, I was able to graduate from UCLA with a double major in three years. I have taught college-level classes at UCLA as well as tutored both high school and college students for the past 3 years in English composition and the writing process.

Throughout my higher educational career, I’ve been driven to learn as much as possible to help satisfy my enormous curiosity. I have earned a bachelor degree in English Literature, and am currently a MFA candidate in the creative writing program at Arizona State University. As part of my graduate funding, I work as a teaching assistant. The program requires constant training, and I enjoy taking part in understanding the way students learn. In addition to teaching at the university, I work with the Office of Youth Preparation—teaching not only the craft of poetry, but helping 4th and 5th graders develop language skills necessary to do well in school. Although I primarily work with the study of English, I study Spanish and have become proficient with the use of the language. I believe that the possibilities of learning are incredible, especially with understanding the tools of both teach

My teaching experience may be quite underdeveloped but is no way a reflection of my teaching ability. I have been a substitute instructional aide for 3 months and volunteer coaching track & field; These two endeavors have shown me the importance of versatility in teaching methods and the different learning faculty that children possess. I feel confident that I will be able to apply what I have learned to tutoring children or adolescents in basic math or English. I have an amazing ability to create a strong rapport with children or young adults. I think even those reluctant to strive find it difficult to resist enjoying the act of learning when they have an affable tutor alongside them. I try and approach concepts from different perspectives to see which one the student responds to the most and then try and tailor my methods to their learning style. I try my hardest to try and help studen

Teaching is something that comes very naturally to me and I feel very comfortable in doing. I understand that every child has a very unique and individualized learning style. Therefore, part of being a good teacher is figuring out how to tap into each student's style, so that they may be reached at whatever level they are at. It is important to always be patient and gentle with a child during their learning process, as their determination and drive can change depending on your willingness to help them. Each child must feel that you care about their learning and the outcome of their growth in a great way. My goal for each student is to make them feel successful even at the smallest level, so that they may stay focused on always growing in whatever skill they are working on. I am a very dedicated and experienced teacher. With over 10 years of professional and non-professional experie

I have been teaching and tutoring students for over 10 years. I teach students up to grade 12. I have been working in Canada as a tutor and worked with dyslexic students as well. I taught math and excelled myself with a high gpa up to grade 12. I always try to ask the student what they think they are weak in. Always try to change the teaching method so that the student does not fall in a routine every session. They sometimes decide on doing, for example, in math, inventing their own equation and participating in their own learning.

In addition, over the years I have worked with many different types of children on a whole group setting all the way to one on one tutoring. My style of teaching depends upon the child's way of learning. In my role as a Montessori teacher I typically presented lessons to the child in way that would best suite thei
