In 1999-2000, I provided highly individualized, one-on-one instruction in the client's homes while working with a local tutoring company.

If I wish to take a more open approach to my teaching, I include a blend of various style

I encourage questions and believe in a lot of practice. I believe that all students can learn with a patient tutor. Many of my students find math frustrating but I have the ability to break all concepts down to the most basic elements and build from there. I also encourage questions and being comfortable asking questions to facilitate the learning experience. I have tutored math and history for years at all levels from middle school through college. I have a bachelors degree from UNC-Chapel Hill and a masters degree from Rutgers University. I find it very rewarding to teach students and help them overcome their academic challenges. Many students struggle with math due to bad teaching or fear. My success lies in getting to the root of the issue and building from there. A calculus professor once told me that the only way you learn math is by doing math. Therefore, I encourage lots of p

I strongly believe in a " student centric" approach to teaching. This means a student-oriented teaching style that focuses heavily on each particular student, as this style assumes every student learns in a different capacity. This means that as a tutor I might need to spend more time with an individual student, accommodating the lesson plans to fit the his or her needs. I am an educator and a tutor with over 10+ years of experience tutoring Arab heritage speakers and non-Arabic speakers students in Arabic writing, reading and speaking.

As a life long athlete, I understand the importance of a team. Parents, tutors, and children must work together to succeed. I also realize the importance of strategy; each team has a different method to achieve their goal. Be it verbal, visual, audial, physical, there are multitudes of different ways to have success inside and outside of the classroom. My personal success would be to teach the children HOW to study through tutoring, a strategy they could take with them throughout their academic and professional careers. Besides family, faith, and good health, there is nothing I value more than my education. As a graduate of the University of Notre Dame, I have earned a bachelor degree in Science-Business. This new field incorporates the work of a Biology major with the fundamental requirements of a Business major. I am now in the process of applying to dental school, thus have extensive

Due to my strong researching and writing skills, I was able to graduate from UCLA with a double major in three years. I have taught college-level classes at UCLA as well as tutored both high school and college students for the past 3 years in English composition and the writing process. My interest in Political Science and Global Studies allows me to contextualize any subject topic to the current happenings, which provides greater relevancy, and thus motivation, to my students. My teaching style is highly interactive. I developed and taught an undergraduate seminar at UCLA that was based on role-playing and critical thinking of historical events through intense discussion among students. As a tutor, I ask my students a lot of questions in order to tease out their knowledge and opinion on the subject. I believe that I do not have any right answers but I do have access to resources that wi

I love children and enjoy seeing their faces light up when something "clicks". I believe in being both consistent and flexible because all children want to know that your are going to be there for them and no child learns the same way. I am extremely comfortable around children of all age groups and especially like teaching children with special needs. My patience and fun loving attitude have served me well as a Substitute Teacher and I believe in my heart that I have made a difference in the lives of the kids I have had the priviledge of teaching. Each one, Teach one. I find it very rewarding to be a part of a childs education. I have an enormous amount of patience and a desire to see individuals do well and help them reach their goals and exceed their expectations. I have been working as a Substitute Teacher for the past four years and have held quite a few long term assignments at

I like to make subject-matter fun and interesting for children by bringing their interests into the subject matter. I find that this enables the child to be comfortable and more open to learning. I find that a sense of humor is also important to bring to the table. Although my standards for student-achievement are high, I find that academic goals are more easily met in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. I find that children "warm up" to me very easily and enjoy having me as a teacher. Your child will enjoy learning with me, and I'll enjoy every smile and "aha!" moment. Seeing a child succeed is one of the most wonderful things imaginable. After receiving a Master's degree in Psychology, I decided to become a teacher because I wanted to help as many people as possible to be the best that they can be! Being an educator for almost 12 years, I feel that I've reached that goal. I h

In the past 4 years, I have tutored language arts, reading, writing, math, science and social studies. Since I will be a teacher in the near future, I am not hesitant to teach all subjects that are taught in elementary and middle schools. I don't believe in paper and pencil instruction only. I use various manipulative and lots of hands on acitivities. That is how I will teach in my class too. I absolutely don't believe that manipulativ
