My comments on tutoring Desktop Publishing : My undergraduate degree is in Visual Arts with a concentration in Graphic Design and Photography.

My teaching philosophy starts out with essentialism which believes in a strong core curriculum and high academic standards. I believe it is important to have a strong foundation on which to build upon. After ensuring a strong foundation I tend to lean more towards progressivism. I believe students should be taught what is relevant today while becoming more independent learners, by utilizing problem solving skills and critical thinking. I teach the foundation and build upon that based upon what is relevant in a particular field today. I also include student-centered teaching strategies. I believe in order to learn a student must have base knowledge of a subject that leads into hands on assignments which require mastery of a subject. Students must have both of these in order to truly master what they are learning. I also believe that team based learning is essential today. It is i ... read more

In 2006 I taught graphic design topics at Westwood College. In 2007 I taught the same subject at The Creative Circus (roughly equivalent to an MBA program for designers, writers, photographers, and art directors). In 2008 I taught in the design department for Georgia State University. This summer I traveled to a remote region in India to teach English. I have taught GRE prep for the past 3 years, covering the verbal, quantitative (math), and analytical writing (essay) areas. As a test prep teacher, I have a close knowledge of students' approach to graduate school, and the process of improving their chances of acceptance to schools of choice. I am academically qualified and more especially interested in teaching humanities courses.
The method of teaching I prefer is maieutic, i.e., one which draws knowledge from the student, rather than attempts to place it in him/her from wit ... read more

My teaching style encourages relating reading and writing to what they are already reading, writing and listening to. If students can understand language and grammar in their own context and how it is useful then it will be better and easier to incorporate into their own writing and reading and therefore more natural. For example, while teaching ballads I introduced a Coldplay and Bob Dylan songs to students to better understand Lord Randall and other ballads of the time. I am driven by watching students succeed as far as test scores are concerned, but also teaching them the life skills that literature introduces to us.
My experience consists of working with students in a classroom as well as working one on one with students through tutoring. While finishing my English Education degree I worked with a tutoring group in low income schools. I worked in a middle school language arts c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My goal for all my students is to achieve success in their learning and to recognize in themselves that they are capable of that success. With that in mind, I seek to lead and guide the students into not only discerning the answers for themselves, but to learn the method by which they can continue that success on their own. I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to not just teach to each student's learning strengths but to also help them strengthen those areas in which they struggle.
Even before I became an educator, I had the heart of a life-long learner. I believe I was called and gifted to be a teacher and to try to impart a love for learning to my students. I have a BA in English and French, and an MA in French Literature. In my 18 years of teaching experience, I have taught a wide variety of subjects (English, Spanish, French, Social Studies, Math) in mostly small s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love children & teaching. Where there is a will there is a way for all children to learn. My motto is "The more you learn the more you know, the more you know the further you go," and I firmly believe in that. I believe that kids can have fun learning if you make the material interesting and somewhat tangible. When children have to sit without any interaction with their teacher or other students it makes learning a whole lot harder. If we as a society teach our children well, and make that extra effort to be sure they are learning, the world will be a totally different place. When a child doesn't understand they feel inferior, that is where I come in at. I go above and beyond to make sure every child I tutor or teach gets that extra attention needed.
Even before graduating from high school I began tutoring kids younger than I. I love children & I value education, therefor ... read more

I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be. AS far as actual teaching styles go, I am demonstrative when necessary but always aiming to be more of a delegator to allow for a student to become a "learner" themselves. I have included descriptions of both styles below for you to understand their applications. Demonstrator or Personal Model Teachers who have a demonstrator or personal model teaching style tend to run teacher-centred classes with an emphasis on demonstration and modeling. This type of teacher acts as a role model by demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that I am a very good teacher. I love teaching and I love children. I am an encourager. I believe that if I do my teaching job well, the student will learn incredibly well and incredibly quickly. I believe that all children learn differently and the teaching must be tailored to their particular strengths and interests and be taught in a way that they can be the most successful. Students need someone who believes in them and their ability to learn. They need to feel that the person working with them is very much interested in them and their success. They need to feel safe and supported as they move forward in their educational experience. Again, I am an encourager who believes in helping all my students to achieve their own personal best!
