Praxis Exam Math is one of the cool areas I help people. Have taught lower-level undergraduate math classes for 3 years; I have worked as a tutor for close to 2 years at the MATH center of Ohio University. I have worked as a grader for professors and graded the classes I taught myself, hence I am familiar with most of the errors students commit which wage war against their grades I first get to know the student's problem and start from there

I consider myself to be a "beginner" teacher as I have recently graduated college and received my license. I have spent roughly 500 hours in the field as a result of college course requirements, and I have successfully completed a 12 week internship (student teaching) experience. I have had the opportunity to work in many different subject areas and classroom settings with students of various backgrounds, ages, and learning styles. I try to take a hands-on approach to teaching when possible. I find it helpful to use varied and often unusual objects and materials when teaching a lesson; it tends to make the material more memorable. However I am not above using the standard pencil/paper/textbook approach when needed.

I truly love the field of education. I recognize that all students learn in different ways. I know certain teaching methods work for some students and not others. It is important to teach in several different styles. I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in Elementary Education. During my undergraduate studies, I was a substitute teacher for Delaware Community Schools in Muncie, IN. I have also tutored at Huntington Learning Center. I am currently working towards earning my Master's in Early Childhood Education.

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. The primary focus of my language instruction would be grammar and pronunciation--which is extremely important, because together they build the foundations of any language learning. I will also use games, songs, cultural notes, and stories making fun of the words in the target language to color up my class sessions. And for those who are still young at heart--you are never too old to learn a new language. I have a Master's Degree in Foreign and Second Language Education(TESOL--Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from the Ohio State University, and a Bachelor's Degree in French Language and Literature from Capital University. I am fluent in English and Mandarin, and proficient in French. I have had eight years of experience teaching English to students from different linguistic backgrounds (Mandarin, Japanese, and Portugue

Being a current student myself, I can appreciate the hardships and struggles of education. I feel that you must always level with your students, no matter what the age. The students are the ones who must lead the class. However, we as educators have a duty to guide and to nourish this idea. We must be leaders who encourage a positive and productive learning environment, while also maintaining an enjoyable experience. I believe in a split between communicative and explicit teaching. Students are given input through examples and other meaningful activities. They then are encouraged to attempt their own output through group work, homework, or discussion. At this point, students are prepared to solidify their learning with charts, graphs, mnemonic devices, and/or questions/answer sessions. Finally, new material is segued into the review, restarting the learning cycle. This overlap

Taught AP, Honors and Regent level Biology and Honors Physics at Preston High School in NY Most of my students recieved Mastery or above on state exams at the end of the year.Most of my students scored above 620 on the SAT biology subject exam. Tutored throughout my college years the subjects: Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy and Physiology and Microbiology. My methods are rather traditional. I beleive that there is no way around hard work. I will explain the problems in many different ways in order for the student to grasp a particular concept. I also am a irm believer that the more problems a student does, the better they become in doing the material.

I love teaching! I really enjoy working with children from all different backgrounds and cultures. I am a great listener who will match my teaching abilities to what the student needs. I am patient and flexible. My goal is for the student to achieve whatever he or she wants to achieve. I have had a wide variety of teaching and tutoring experiences. While pursuing my BA in education, I tutored K-3 students in Reading as a work-study participant. I have worked in a variety of environments from the intercity to the suburbs in Cleveland. As I worked on my TESOL degree, I tutored several ESL adults in order to prepare them for life as a college student in the USA. Over the course of my teaching career, I have taught EFL in China, ESL in the States and have prepared future ESL teachers as well. Currently, I am working in the public school system teaching ESL. I do hold an Ohio teaching license

I enjoy teaching adults as well as high school students. I do not have much training teaching below junior high; however, I am confident that I could successfully teach math or language. Although, I don't mind the traditional classroom setting, I am quite used to instructing on a one-to-one basis. Our GED programs are completely individualized for learners to move at their own pace, and I encourage this type of teaching style when manageable. Many of the students/adults that I have worked with have a learning disability of some sort, but I feel that I learn from each student just as much as they are learning from me. I enjoy teaching and couldn't see myself doing much else. While attaining my genetics degree at Ohio State, I worked at the OSU Chimpanzee Center. After graduating, I started working for the Department of Agriculture in the Weights and Measures division. It was my job to try
