Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Springfield, KY

I'm patient. I'll try and make my lessons easy to understand. I know how frustrating language arts can be, but I also know how rewarding it can be as well. I can relate very easily to high school students, because I just graduated from high school 5 years ago. I started tutoring in 2009 through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kentuckiana. I tutor my "Little" for an hour once a week. I help with whatever subject they need. My specialty is Language Arts, but if you need help with basic math, I can do that too. I have observed many elementary, middle school, and high school classes. I know what works best, especially since I'm going to become a high school language arts teacher in a few years.

I have been commended for my ability to teach students holistically. This means I take in consideration the student's background and prior knowledge, and then design a method of instruction to fit that particular student.

Very simply, I believe that an instructor should be a facilitator of the learning process, not a dictator. The best learning is that which is done by the student him/herself through experiencing and seeing things firsthand. I strive to get to know my students and make my tutoring sessions unique and tailored to fit each individual student's needs. I have a masters degree in psychology, specializing in child development. During my undergraduate studies, I minored in music and English. In recent years, I have taught music and English to both children and adults. I also have a great deal in knowledge in other subject areas, like history, religion, and even a little Spanish.

I have earned a BA in English. In earning that degree I have taken several linguistic classed. With that said my knowledge of the written and spoken language is pretty strong. With holding an English degree I am trained to comprehend what I have read as well as analyzing the material. During my undergraduate years I have helped kids and peers to learn how to speed read, reading comprehension, as well as how to write a strong paper. I like to make a difference in a child's life. I enjoy seeing the child understand what they have read or being able to sound a word out and understand its meaning. I think that in today's time a lot of students do not understand how to write a well worded paper and this skill is very useful in the higher years of one's education. I also believe that reading comprehension is important since this skill is often used in standardized tests. I am patient and am ab

I love to learn and love to share that joy with others. I try to be clear and precise as possible in my explanation of course content, but I try to avoid blatantly giving a student an answer to a question. I feel the best way to learn is to let the student work at the problem on his own and come to the solution by himself. This leads the student to a feeling of success and accomplishment and helps him to better develop his own individual skills. During my two years attending graduate school at Ohio University, I was responsible for teaching an introductory college course. Aside from the mandated textbook, I developed and distributed all course materials, including in-class lectures, classroom exercises, course examinations, and other various learning materials. I assisted the students in properly parsing and formulating an appropriate answer to each assignment, as well as clarifying thei

I am a dynamic and charismatic teacher who thrives in small group settings. I inject real world examples and allusions while I thoroughly discuss the basics of all skills. I love to learn, to discuss, to research and to find answers to questions, and this passion allows me to provide a pathway for students to learn to their fullest potential. I try to make learning fun, exciting and full of life, as this is the way I see it. As a former high school English teacher, I had the honor of working with student from the 9th to the 12th grade, as well as covering all major areas: composition, literature, spelling, vocabulary and everything else in between. In addition, my advanced schooling and training have given me a wife array of teachable skills - everything from test prep to basic reading skills to a strong background in history.

I have over 25 years experience in education and have taught middle school through college mathematics. I enjoy helping students learn mathematics as well as other subjects. In math I prefer to assist with basic math through pre-calculus. I also enjoy history and economics and assisting with those subjects as well. I have worked with special needs students as well as students of diversity. My philosophy of teaching has evolved from many years of teaching and administrative experience. As I reflect on my beliefs regarding teaching and learning, I find that my mission as an educator is threefold: • to promote positive learning; • to spark learner enthusiasm for learning; • and to provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. To accomplish this, I enjoy applying a wide variety of strategies based on essential educational principles encompassing a variety of learning styles, learn

During the pursuit of my degrees I worked tirelessly to excel. While in school I volunteered as a tutor for the local Boys and Girls Club. I tutored middle school and high school students in literature, math, science and history. Due to my degree in Library Science I have extensive knowledge in writing term papers and research methods. I believe that all children can be successful academically with the right encouragement and guidance. I believe in showing students the correct way to do the task at hand, and them coaching to explore the materials themselves. I believe that given the right tools and foundation even a academically unsuccessful student can excel.

I am a 60-year old man who has taught every subject at every grade level as an artist in the schools for over 35 years. I currently substitute in all the grades in Hart County so I have had to demonstrate knowledge of every subject at every grade level. I have been in the classrooms of public schools every day for about 60% of my adult life. I hold a Bachelor's Degree from Oberlin College with a major in Biology and minors in Chemistry and Math. I have tutored a lot over the years, and whereas I am comfortable handling any subject, my particular strong point is Math. I am able to find the way that students can understand the principles being learned (and this way is different for each student). I believe each student can learn and it’s my responsibility to find how each one learns best. So much of it is about instilling confidence in the student that he or she is intelligent and capable
