I am an art K-12 major in college at the moment. I love art, and I love learning, and helping children learn. I am very proficent in many arts, english, history and computer skills. I have worked with children and teaching them how to write and read. I also help the kids i babysit with their homework, and other things school related that they may need help on. If you need help with something I will be here to help you and make sure you understand them in a way, so if someone else needs help you can teach them as well.

More About This Tutor...

The process is just as important as the product. If a student can come up with the correct answer, but he or she has no idea how or why it is correct or how they got it, I feel like their learning is incomplete. Especially in Math, but also in many other subjects, concepts build upon each other. For this reason, I like to explain not just *how* to get there, but also *why* we got that answer; then students have a firmer foundation for the trickier concepts. I love seeing the lightbulb "go on," when kids finally "get it."
I have been a teacher for 7 years. I have taught in a small-town private, Christian two-room schoolhouse (K-8); I currently substitute teach for OPS, and have been to all but one school in the district. I have also tutored on and off over the years, both individually and in small groups, both privately and through school district or companies. I enjoy working with ... read more

Experienced tutor specializing in science and mathematics

I try to work with students to find connections between different aspects of the material that we're working on as well as to find connections to other subjects. I find that by relating specific topics to broader perspectives on a subject as well as related subjects, the student can gain a greater appreciation for the coherence and importance of a particular subject area.
I have experience working with students who are advanced and seeking supplementary tutoring as well as with students who are having difficulty with a subject. I have tutored mathematics as well as chemistry, biology, physics, and other subjects. I have tutored students from a range of ages and I worked with my first student over four years ago while I was in college.

A Little Bit About Me...

While I studied for my undergraduate degree, I tutored fellow class mates in History, Business Law, English and other subjects. I taught study skills to help them improve their learning process. To broaden my tutoring horizons, I have recently studied basic Algebra. I have worked with international students on their English. I have tutored at-risk students (who have considered dropping out of high school) to help them graduate. I truly enjoy helping others become life-long learners.
I enjoy teaching students how to learn. Learning strategies teach students how to learn proficiently and quickly. Consider the following illustration. A student can take a football and run toward the goal line. He who runs efficiently and smartly (avoiding players whose goal is to tackle him) will cross the goal line. Discipline and strategy are essential to effective learning. Most students do not plan ... read more

I have a broad range of teaching experience. I've worked with students with behavior and developmental disorders, English Language Learner students, and a wide variety of ability and age levels. My previous positions allowed me to work in both rural and urban areas with students and families from various social, economic, and educational backgrounds.
I do my best to determine how each child learns and tailor my instruction accordingly. I realize not everyone processes information in the same way and work hard to vary my teaching methods as needed. If a student is struggling, I seek input from the student and their parents. I believe students should have an active role in their own education and encourage them to give me feedback. Parental involvement is also something that is very valuable.

I believe that “Education is the key to success in today¹s workforce” for students. As a teacher, I will motivate students in ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities and discover what truly inspires them. I will provide a stimulating environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions while fostering confidence which will enable students to realize their full potential at work and in their personal life. I have come to realize how vital education is in preparation for students to achieve success in all endeavors set before them and I hope as a teacher to instill a lifelong love of learning in each student.
