My intention is to motivate, others to be distinguished, and achieve goals With five plus years of management training, clerical, and IT experience, along with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, I possess the qualifications you are looking for in a mentor/coach. Throughout my life I suffered from Dyslexia and ADD; however, I have overcome the odds. I also suffered from a speech impediment that hindered my development. Through hard work and dedication I am now, a comfortable and confident public speaker. My experience in the arts such as Literature, graphic arts, and multimedia allows me to reach across timelines and cultures. As a member of Alpha Phi Alpha I headed the Project Alpha program on several occasions. Project Alpha has various sub-programs such as, Go to School Go to College, and Belfar Lawson Oratorical contest. These programs helped youth stay out of trouble while prepari

I’m a Washington State Certified educator with over ten years of experience teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I’ve taught in both alternative and traditional schools, and have tutored a wide range of learners—from homeless youth to gifted students at top performing schools. I earned my B.A. in English Literature and Washington State Teaching Certificate for Secondary Education from Seattle Pacific University in 2009. Currently I'm pursuing a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, providing a framework to unite behavioral psychology with individualized education for optimal learning. I believe in integrated, holistic education, and I’m particularly passionate about supporting students with learning or behavioral difficulties. My teaching philosophy centers on individualized instruction. Rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor sessions to meet your stud

I use the iPad (excellent resource) books, worksheets and materials I make to fit the situation. I am a speech therapist with 11 years and experience. I have worked with students pre-k through 12th grade, primarily pre-k through 5th grade. I have extensive experience working with students on reading comprehension, answering and asking questions, semantics of language (antonyms, synonyms, multiple meanings of words, attributes, categorization), syntax, grammar, phonics and much more! I have mainly worked with kids with disabilities, including autism, developmental delays, communication delays, speech and language impairment, and Down Syndrome.

My teaching experience is broad across subjects and age levels. Learning and teaching excite me and I like to think that attitude rubs off on my students. It can be fun to learn, and even those subjects a student does not find enjoyable, can prove satisfying. I've taught middle school and high school, as well as at Bellevue College, Renton technical College, and North Seattle Community College. My own experiences include not just teaching, but also professional broadcasting, journalism (both broadcast and print newswriting, creative writing, editing, and reporting), writing a book, supervising employees as well as students, and poetry awards. I like students to be comfortable, enjoy their experiences with me as much as possible, and learn not only the material they need to study, but also habits and practices that will help them with future studies.

I have a very active, hands-on teaching style. Since every individual learns differently, I incorporate visual, aural, oral, and physical elements into my all of my lesson plans. I listen to what my student's objectives are, the parent or guardian's objectives, as well as personally identifying overlooked areas for improvement. Having set the goals, I work with the student to achieve those goals. Since graduating from Bryn Mawr College, I have spent nine years tutoring and teaching students a wide variety of subjects including English as a foreign language, Spanish, Russian, music, elementary academics, adult basic education, special needs education, and transition skills. I have taught in a classroom setting, as well as small group and one-on-one. I have experience working across the spectrum of developmental stages, from children preparing for kindergarten to those well into retir

I have a strong compassion for education. As an educator or tutor the pursuit of excellence is always my major goal. I think teaching is the only best way to share knowledge and help those in learning process to strive for success. I will do everything in my power to help children and adult students to be successful in pursuit of their education. Show me the program, I will organize it, and deliver it to the students in the most clear and understandable approach. As a recent graduate of the Master of Science in Criminal justice (MSCJ), I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I am very proud of my honorable result, a 3.82/4.00 GPA. I also have earned a Master of Sociology and Compared Politics, and a bachelor degree in Public and International Law. I have accomplished many successful research papers, and memoirs concerning human condition, social scie

I knew I wanted to teach at grade 5. All my education from that time on was directed to become a teacher. During my graduate work at the University of Oregon I majored in Reading. It has become my passion to help all students love reading and become comfortable reading. This passion has been driven by the fact that I am dyslexic and understand how difficult it is to not be able to read well. During my teaching career I have worked with all grades and developmental levels. My Resume is a much better indicator of my experience along with meeting me in person. I believe that all children can learn you just have to find their style. Each person has their own unique learning style. That is why tutoring can truely help students become better learners because a one on one approach can help them find their style and become their own advocates.

After graduating from high school with honors in both the International Baccalaureate and Advanced Placement programs, I went on to earn two bachelor degrees from the University of the Pacific, one in International Relations and the other in French Language and Literature, in addition to a Minor in Economics. While earning my BA in French, I studied abroad in Paris, France. Upon my return, I tutored college level French and economics courses. Additionally, I have one year experience tutoring elementary age reading and writing. As I was fortunate to have a series of excellent, dedicated tutors and mentors as a child, I wish to provide the same care to other children. I believe children can learn and achieve with one-on-one attention and a lesson plan tailored to meet their special needs. I bring encouragement and patience to each tutoring session, and I find ways to help children gro

From 2005 to 2008 I worked as a teacher and tutor for a Seattle-based test preparation firm. I taught classes for the SAT and GRE and tutored the SAT, GRE, and ACT. I believe I met and exceeded the high standards set by this organization. In 2008 I worked as a regional field director for the Obama campaign in several states, leading trainings in voter contact activities, campaign software systems, and other volunteer activities. Training volunteers of all different backgrounds and educational levels was the key to my task. I believe that instilling the confidence to learn is the key to effective instruction. Students need confidence not only in their instructor’s mastery of the subject matter, but also in their own ability to gain their own such master. This is not to suggest that rigor should not be applied, but rather that a student must have an emotional engagement with the learning p

With nearly a lifetime of teaching youth and adult learners, I have focused on teaching computer skills in the more recent period of my career. Computer skills include the physical use of the PC (personal computer) and Microsoft Office software—Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Windows. In my classes, I also included the teaching of good writing skills for my students to use in writing their term papers. Other subject proficiencies include psychology, sociology, math-statistics, history, physics and library skills. I taught to engage the audio, visual and kinesthetic capabilities of each student in the learning process. I encouraged note taking by creating handout outlines of the information being covered and students inserted notes into each section of the outlines and I used physical objects to demonstrate how computer systems work and students took apart, put together and troubleshot th

I graduated from the University of Washington last year with a BA in Journalism. I've also received an AA Degree from Highline Community College. Unlike many Journalism students, I have experience in arithmetic like algebra, pre-calculus and calculus. I've tutored students in math and writing, from first graders to college peers. I am a very patient, hands-on style of tutor. I take the time and try to explain things to people who have a hard time understanding. I try to gage what the student is struggling with and also what they do understand, so I can quickly pinpoint their troubles and focus on the problem issue. Some kids need more explaining, others need a picture drawn out for them. I am good at finding what method people learn best with.
