Desktop Publishing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Silver Spring, MD

While I was a Rotary Exchange Student – South Africa | 1999-2000, I volunteered to tutor students of various ages every subject, except Afrikaans, and was very pleased with their progress, and enjoyed it. I excel in the Arts (Creative, and Graphic), English, Statistics, French, Social Studies, Reading/Writing (especially essay) and would be best for college prep (Highschool ages grades 9-12), as well as Creative Arts for all ages. Please see my profile for everything I feel confident to be at expert level of. I am confident I could dramatically improve any student's writing skills as well as their art abilities. I adjust to the learner and speak their language, establish rapport through mutual respect, and try and make it as fun as possible.

I not only help my students understand the subjects in which they are being tutored, but I also teach them important study skills and help them build confidence in their own abilities. One is never too young or old to enjoy the benefits from tutoring, and it is often a question of just a few months or even weeks before students are back on track. I have been tutoring for nearly two decades; having lived and taught both in the U. S. and abroad. I am a highly qualified teacher in Elementary & Middle School & also in Special Education. I have had all successful experiences working one to one to teach, review, and reinforce skills in all subject areas in K.G. to 7th grade. I am patient and kind and can keep a student focused for each lesson by breaking down concepts using time frames to maintain attention.

My teaching style is to lecture with examples while students are following the process and understanding what needs to be done and how. Then myself and the students do the hands on together so they can either do the exercise from memory or follow my directions. Once the exercise is complete, I give them time to do it themselves. I repeat the materials at the end of each section and the end of each chapter and encourage asking questions. Training can be delivered in person for 1 student or a group. It can also be delivered on the internet at my location or the clients location for an individual or a group. I am an experienced Trainer and Instructor who is skilled in a vast variety of subjects like Ms Office in general at all levels, Project Management, ITIL, Lean, Six Sigma, SQL, SharePoint, Scrum, IOT etc. With my real life experience as an instructor, I can offer significant abiliti

I started out as a Computer Instructor and enjoyed teaching computer classes but something was missing. I saw that my children was not getting the education in the school system that I desired for them. I had wonderful teachers in school and Math was my favorite subject. I am now a degreed, homeschool mom of a 12th grader and a 9th grader - this is our 4th year. I have been a practicing Math Tutor for the past 15 years and tutor in Basic Math through Algebra 2. I love the subject of Algebra. I have been tutoring private students in Algebra 2 for 5 years now. One past College level student - she did pass the class - and now a high school student who was having problems and now the light is finally being turned on. I am a dedicated professional who is passionate about helping students achieve academic success. This past year, I spent time as an SES Lead Tutor after school and in-home

During lessons, I am patient, calm, well-spoken, but challenging. I continually ask my students questions and make sure the focus stays on them and their learning rather than myself. I find that the discovery approach works well in my classes and students are always willing to participate in fun games and other activities that allow them to find the answer on their own. The best teacher is one that is always willing to learn and wants to help the individual become a well-rounded person, not just someone who can always give the correct answer. Paulo Freire, the late Brazilian Sociologist, was not only one of the greatest thinkers of the century, but also a humble educator. He believed that there should be no set boundaries between student and teacher because all people have something to contribute. He also believed that one's education should be rooted in the one's reality. Thus a "stu

My former studies and ten years experiences gave me the potential of working in any environment. My work experiences are good starting point to be a good teacher for young students. As a non-professional soccer player in Italy, I used to coach students playing and also the Cameroonian team in Torino. I'm a French native language speaker, I was very interested to achieve high school education, that why I decided to move in Italy in 1990 to study at Politecnico of Torino in Italy. I have earned a bachelor degree in Electronic Engineering, which has enabled me to work in Information Technology for ten years. I have grammatical skills in French due to my studies in Cameroon, and in Italian due to university study, technical writing and reports. I have one year of tutoring students in mathematics

I have written a novel while I was in grad school at the University of Washington. I was also a French major and attended the Univeristy of Paris, the Sorbonne in Paris, France for 2 years. Languages and writing have always been a passion for me. I have also recently taught CCD to fifth graders at my church. I taught English in a language school (Inlingua) which was a question/answer format much like a baby learns a language or like the Berlitz method. I like to use practical examples often relying on drama skills, music or life so a student can identify. I believe in making learning

I am a Masters Candidate and Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville studying for a degree in Chinese History. The study of history demands a high degree of research and critical thinking skills, as well as the ability to write persuasively and effectively. In addition to my strong academic ability and background, I have experience teaching in a variety of settings. I have substitute taught history, literature, and geography classes at a local homeschool tutorial. Between finishing my B.A. (also in History) and beginning my M.A., I taught Oral English, Business English, and English for Tourism at a private university in Central China. I also taught American language and culture courses at a nursing school and helped teach a five week intensive English summer camp for Chinese high-school students.

Teaching is an incredibly rewarding experience for me. Working in a Montessori environment has provided me with a patient and child-centered approach to learning. I respect students for their differences, and encourage students to find pride in their accomplishments and progress. I believe that all children should have the opportunity to do their best and become life-long learners, and that they deserve to work with educators who respect their individual learning style and expect excellence. I earned my BA in 2007 and I have been working in a public Montessori school since then. In addition to my current position as Technology Coordinator, I have volunteered as an Odyssey of the Mind coach and I have worked in the after school math and language tutoring program. Although this is only my fourth year working in elementary education, my prior job experience as a program director for a no

I believe every child is unique and thus possesses his or her own unique learning style. Adapting to that learning style is key for any teacher. I like to provide examples which appeal to individual interests and help children to learn even when they may not realize they are learning. Students must trust your guidance, and my goal as a tutor has always been to develop a unique relationship with each tutee that enhances the unique learning capabilities for that student. As a University of Richmond graduate, I am a very driven student and education is my number one priority. As a second semester freshman at the university, I was selected as a Symbolic Logic tutor and also began tutoring Calculus and the Italian language. For three years at the university, I was an Italian teaching assistant for the Italian Studies department and also tutored locally in the city of Richmond on my own.

Having been in school for 6 years post high school has taught me a lot about the educational system and the means to success. A proper education is very crucial in order to prevent a student from being misinformed and misguided. To prevent that, I help my students to be self-motivated and more aware of local and global events through newspapers. I believe everyone is different based on their backgrounds, therefore, they must be taught HOW to learn effectively. This is where I come in. I can identify what a student’s weakness is and allow them to learn SUCCESSFULLY! Having a B.S. in Microbiology from University of Maryland and having completed 2 years of medical school gives me a strong background in the sciences. For the past 7 years I worked for Certified Learning Center and had great experiences tutoring students of different backgrounds. Although science is my specialty, I have
