Phyllis H - Hutchinson, KS 67501 (22.8 mi) - Composition Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My original interest was teaching instrumental music. Although I changed majors and ultimately graduated with a BS in Computer Science, I have continued my interest in teaching, first by volunteer tutoring during college and later by helping adults learn to speak English. I eventually took an intensive summer course in teaching English to speakers of other languages, following which I spent over three years teaching conversational English in Central Asia. Upon returning to the States I worked for a few years for a literacy council, helping administratively and also teaching workplace English. I continue to play in orchestras and teach string instruments privately. I am in the process of completing a Master's degree in Teaching. I love working with children and with adults. I especially enjoy watching a child's eyes light up when something makes sense. I value the constructivist approach

I have the ability to motivate learners so that they have fun accomplishing the goals set before them. But I am at the same time very task orientated and use a lot of behavior modification techniques in my approach. After graduation from college, I entered the Peace Corps and moved to the country of the Federated States of Micronesia. I have lived in that area of the world for most of my teaching career.
I have taught for over twenty years gaining experience on almost every level o

I truly enjoy teaching and working with children. I have a deep-seeded passion for knowledge as well. I have exceptional patience and I am understanding in that individuals have different learning styles. It is my philosophy that it is the teacher's position to adjust to the learning style of the individual to ensure success.
