My comments on tutoring Composition : I work in a school now and I can help show you how to sign the words for this subject.

I have been a professional Interpreter for over 12 years and will continue to do so until I am not needed anymore. I have worked in numerous places as an Interpreter such as Hospitals, court houses, Dr. offices, schools, and etc. I develop a relationship with all my clients that keep them requesting me. I take time to care about what's going on and stay focused and intrigued with everything that's going on.
I can break it down so that it will be as easy for anyone to understand. I also sometimes like to try and connect the sign with the meaning so that it is easy for any person to remember.

I thoroughly love teaching as I come from a line of teachers myself. I have demonstrated that learning happens on multiple levels depending on what level one is working on. In my experience, I have learned that understanding is a process which involves listening, question and answer, humility, multiple approaches (including mixed media, visual and audio stimulus, humor, etc.), and a general openness to learn. Patience is key, and to learn is not just to memorize--it is to understand. Through the learning of the knowledge of relationships and the inter-working of things is understanding of subject material attained. We are all children, and as children we strive to break the barriers that close our minds. A good teacher knows how to ferret out these barriers that prevent our learning and open the doors to discovery and thought. It is with this knowledge that every student I have ta ... read more

My teaching style is one where I adapt to the situation and what it requires. I believe each student should be taught to the individual level they are on but still challenged. I am a very patient and easy going person. I relate well to students and am able to use this ability to get the most out of them. I also believe that students will rise to the expectations we put on them. All children have potential for great things, it is just up to us to determine what these great things are.
I am a veteran teacher of nearly 28 years. As a teacher at Perrysburg High School, I have taught every level of English from grades 9-12. I have taught English to students who struggle with the subject and I have also taught honors level students. For a ten year period I taught journalism classes at the high school and advised the school newspaper. I am experienced at teaching writing skills which incl ... read more

Each individual has a unique approach to critical thinking, and using that approach is the best way for that person to learn. I make every attempt to identify a person's perspective so as to shape my teaching for that person in the best possible way. Whether someone is visual-, aural-, logical-, or otherwise-oriented makes a significant difference in the way that person will respond to new information. Above all, I remain positive in my approach, because I realize that every success requires an amount of trial and error behind it, and that nobody is born into their skills though everybody has talent.
As a foster parent, I tutored our first child as he progressed through kindergarten and the first grade. His previous school experience was lacking at best, and he had little confidence in his scholastic ability. I was able to pinpoint his natural aptitude--mathematics--and use it ... read more

As before, since I do not have classroom teaching experience I'm not exactly sure what my style would be. Initially I feel I should explain that I do not stand a strict method. From the people I have tutored before I have learned that you need to adapt to different situations and different needs. Some students need more regimented discipline such as an outline of everything for every day and others need just a general idea of what is required, etc, etc. I am confident, and proud, in the fact that I can adapt to any situation. I may not have the experience, but I do have the knowledge and I do have the passion.
