I have a BS in business and can tutor in any business related fields. In addition, my original college major was physics. I can and have taught physics, math, (up to differential equations) and physical sciences. I have also been an ameteur astronomer for 40 years and can teach courses in this dicipline. I am currently employed as an airline pilot and have earned all teaching certificates from the FAA. My approach to teaching is more of a "why" approach. It is more important for students to know why something is or works rather than just how. This approach works well for middle and high school students. It allows students not only to understand the ideas taught but to apply them to other areas as well. I also like to use visual aids as well as conversation. I have found that many of us vary widely in learning styles. Some are visual learners, others are audio learners, and still oth

I’m a graduate from the University of Pittsburgh (2009) with a B.S. in Business Administration. After graduation, I realized my true calling while working at my YMCA in our Child Development Center. My title was an office coordinator position, but I took further responsibilities to help out our teachers in our preschool and toddler classrooms. Along with helping out the preschool classes, I have also worked with our school-aged children. This is where I learned that helping children grow is what I enjoy to do and plan to do for the rest of my career. I will be returning to school at the University of Pittsburgh in Fall 2011 to obtain my teaching certification for Elementary Education. As a student myself, I know how difficult it is to learn academics by one person’s particular teaching style. I believe that you must teach by finding out your students’ interests and use those to

My tutoring experience comes from high school, college and job environments. When it comes to bookkeeping and accounting I discovered a natural ability during my first bookkeeping class in high school. After finishing the course material in half the time, I was allowed to assist other students. In college, I was repeatedly asked by fellow classmates to help them acquire a stronger grasp of the subject matter. When a friend of mine graduated from Trumbull Business College and took her first position as a bookkeeper, I was recruited to guide her with my hands on knowledge of real world accounting. At my places of employment I regularly assisted and trained others in the business procedures and computer software needed to do their jobs. I never really considered myself a teacher as much as just someone who understood something a little better than someone else. To that extent I guess my

I am experienced in teaching. I have worked within the public school systems as a substitute teacher and as a permanent employee. In addition, I have taught GED classes to adults; and tutored elementary and high school students. I am nearly completed with my Master of Science degree, and I have an earned Bachelor of Science degree from Bellevue University. I am passionate when it comes to teaching. I conduct my lessons with the understanding that every child is an individual. Therefore, they each have their own learning pace and preferences. The first tutoring session, I set aside, to learn more about the child and to conduct an assessment which will help me in determining that child's learning patterns. In addition, I believe in meeting with the parents weekly to discuss their child's progress and to offer advice on how they can help aid their child in their academic success.

I love the experience of teaching children and seeing the light in their eyes when they understand what they are learning. I believe each child learns in their own way and in their own time. As such, I believe in going along with the student's ability. I do not believe in high pressure teaching. I am patient and easy going. If a student is struggling, I back up and try another approach. I strive for my students to enjoy what they are learning as much as possible. I earned my Bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Mathematics. I was a substitute teacher for three years. I recently earned nine credit hours of additional education in order to renew my teaching license with the State of Ohio.

Through my teaching experiences I have developed a "never say die" teaching style. I am willing to try as many methods as it takes in order to help the student achieve academic success. I am very positive, encouraging, and patient when working with children. My teaching style also incorporates mostly hands on activities because I believe that when students are physically engaged in their learning they achieve a higher level of success. I am also a firm believer in the idea that all students are able to meet their potential when given the right tools to get them there. I believe that my teaching style reflects this idea because while teaching I put forth all of my effort to help the children gain success. I am a graduate from the Marshall University School of Education. I earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education which has enabled me to learn a lot about Elementary curriculum as

I have learned that every student has different needs and abilities; therefore, they need different learning avenues. My job as a teacher is to help each child find his/her way of learning, so that he/she may be successful in lifelong learning. I achieve this by utilizing hands-on materials, multimedia technologies, and inquiry based discussions. My goal is to create a classroom environment where students can flourish and have a sense of purpose and direction, yet still meet the needs of today’s society. I give constant feedback for my students, and I like to collaborate with them to get their opinion on topics. I am a patient, dedicated, and caring person.

I believe in a combination of classic and Modern Music I feel that the classics provide the basics and the structure that one needs to learn properly, I feel the modern Music helps with retaining students and creates a sense accomplishment by being able to play music that they hear on a regular bases. I also promote creativity and try to challenge the students to seek out improvements in what they are learning . Finally I believe that music should be both challenging and fun and the Students should not be forced and should be allowed to choose to learn music. I started playing piano at the age of two. This was do to the fact that my grandmother was a professional piano instructor. I completed eight years of Music through the School on The following Instruments, Mallet Percussion, Trombone, Piano, Minor Voice.
