EXPERT TUTOR-MultiSubject; Home/ONLINE; +WRITING instructor

As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must ... read more

My comments on tutoring Drawing : Sketching, still life, figure drawing. Charcoal, conte crayon, graphite.

Hi! Needing an Art or Art History tutor? I have tutored at the college level in photography, drawing, watercolor and art history. My senior year I assisted the instructor (teaching the class on several occasions) of film based photography. I have also tutored in basic photoshop skills. I love to educate people about the things I love.
HANDS ON!! I teach the way I learn- trying things for yourself is the best way to learn and remember technique and style.

Drawing is one of my top subjects! I have my Masters Degree in Drawing and Painting and my Undergraduate Degree in Studio Art. I continually produce artwork professionally which can be viewed on my website: Jessicafife.com. I frequently exhibit in my city Long Beach, Los Angeles, surrounding cities, nationally and online.

My focus is for my students to acquire a sound understanding of the fundamentals of drawing and painting and to become grounded in their unique abilities and concepts. I want students to gain proficiency in traditional techniques and contemporary concepts and to become confident in their unique styles. While being exposed to art from the past and present, my hope is to stir a passion that will propel their careers and inspire them for years. A constant in my teaching is one-on-one instruction. Class demonstrations and lectures are essential: however, I find my greatest impact is an emphasis on individual instruction with each student. In the diverse classroom dynamics of Cal State Fullerton, each student has a distinct story-with art majors, non-art majors, and varied genders, races and ages. Some students have had years of art education or practice, many are novice artists. ... read more

My style of teaching was geared to the individuality of each child and his learning abilities. I feel that each child must learn at his own pace and it is my place to deal with this. I think that the teacher must motivate the child to want to learn and to discover the innate ability within each child. It was my job to make learning fun, creative, desirable and ultimately rewarding.
After completing my student teaching at Fort Campbell High School in Kentucky I was offered a position to teach English at another one of the military schools located on the base. I had thoroughly enjoyed teaching Senior English-it presented a challenge to me as I was only 22 and my "students" were 17 and 18 years old. I helped supervise the Senior play and talent show and found it to be a rewarding experience helping these students to grow in their knowledge of English grammar and to learn to appre ... read more

I enjoy enabling students to discover the abilities within themselves. I excel at being able to get students to find answers to their struggles by asking them the right questions, leading them in the right direction instead of doing the work for them. I have an uncanny ability to see the best in all students, patience, understanding, and flexibilty are virtues in tutoring. Each student is unique and needs an individual style of assistance. A solid educational foundation provides the confidence to reach goals, my desire is to help studetns dream bigger by showing them the true reaches of their potential.
At the age of 24 already possessing a bachelor's and master's degree illustrates my efficiency and determination. I have taught English as a second language at the high school level and politcal science at the university level. I am very personable and able to relate to various typ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a language trainer I am knowledgeable in all-levels of French training and tutoring I've worked professionally for clients of Cartus a global mobility management company. I've also held a position as a Arts and Crafts director and held full responsibility for planning, leading and instructing traditional and multi-cultural Arts & Crafts programs for children, ages 5-15.
I focus on cognitive development (Reading, writing, speech, creativity..) as well as social skills to prepare the child. I like to tap into the three most efficient instructional methods which are visual, physical and verbal when working with children. I have used a lot of visual resources in my past curriculum which have been very successful! I'm very attentive to children's behavior and body language and keep them in consideration throughout my interactions with them. I strive to make learning fun !

A Little Bit About Me...

I am 31, a Nashville native and recently married. In 2001, I graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in Social Work. In 2008, I earned a Master of Divinity by studying theology and translating ancient Greek and Hebrew. This required writing many research papers. Last year I lived in Turkey, located north of Egypt. Now I enjoy being back in Nashville. Over the last several years, I grew in the skills of writing curriculum and teaching my lessons to large classrooms. I have also had the opportunity to mentor young women. I love teaching because making a difference in someone’s life is the most rewarding experience. I enjoy being able to support others in their goals and assist them in achieving their dreams.
I believe the best environment for growth is a safe environment. My teaching style communicates clear expectations while at the same time allows roo ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a college student, I was convinced early that I would become a doctor or scientific researcher. About halfway through my college career, I decided that while science was interesting, people and world politics were much more interesting. Now, with a BA in International Studies, I have greatly improved my skills in research, writing, public speaking, teaching, and leadership. My knowledge base is broad and deep, and I am comfortable with the subjects of: Natural Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Ecology), International Studies (Economics, Politics, Conflict), English, and Psychology.
As my experience at college drew to a close, I found that the most rewarding activities I participated in were centered on education. I am a lifelong learner, and I love participating with others in the learning process. I set a relaxed atmosphere that fosters the students drive to ask questions and seek ... read more

Learning is a lifelong adventure in pursuit of truth. In following the example of Socrates, a teacher must realize that the wisest among us are those who are keenly aware of their own lack of knowledge. It is not a coincidence that eager learners make the best teachers. Because education is primarily concerned with the development of human beings, it cannot ignore the fundamental importance of personal relationships. I believe that an effective teacher must carefully analyze the personality, attitudes, and goals of students in order to better understand how to motivate and communicate with them. The most effective way to stimulate learning is not through providing more and more data, but rather by developing a personal and unique approach that reaches students where they are. A teacher should seek to follow the example of effective mentoring demonstrated by the great Teachers of the pas ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a recent graduate earning my M.Ed., I have learned different techniques for teaching to different learning styles. After receiving my BFA in studio art, it became my mission to help others not only learn how to create, but to believe in themselves as well. I also believe that the student learns best when subjects are integrated and I enjoy finding creative ways to bring other subjects into art. Along with my degree in Art, I also spent four years in an after care setting tutoring students at the elementary level in all subject areas.
I have always enjoyed working with children and have spend the past 13 years working with them in various settings. I have found that every child learns in their own special way and it is my job to work with the child, figure out what teaching approach works best, and help the child be able to adapt that approach to every subject on their own. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a mind motivator, I am the dynamic teacher that students need in their lives. I love integrating technology, (i.e. PowerPoint, video streaming and interactive games). I understand learning styles and have high expectation for all students. The importance of knowing what motivates students can help me hone in on what students need. I am a hands-on type of teacher, but students only learn by doing, therefore, the preparation of activities based on abilities and learning styles can help student move to the next level. These key components to learning help me plan lessons that are fun and motivational. Teachers should take the time to get to know their student’s needs so that they can build trust, and give the student the educational food that they are entitled to.
Education has played a major role in my life. I earned my degree in elementary education because I believe that everyo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience as a teacher has been a life long passion. I was an early childhood education teacher for three years and taught the full gammet of subjects from mathematics, english, social studies, and so on. Not only that, I taught students from K-8 for the Metro-Nashville Public Schools in all subjects. My experience goes even further. As a Vacation Bible School teacher for three years at my church, I enlightened children with valuable biblical knowledge.
My teaching style is based upon respect for the teacher and the children. I try to approach teaching not only as a key learning tool, but also how education affects our daily lives. My favorite approach is to connect whatever subject I'm teaching to current events. By doing this, I see that students understand the subject matter better. Also, I believe in discussing the material in a discussion type setting where everyone's opi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that when a student does not do well in school, it is not because that student cannot learn. Different teaching methods speak to different students, and sometimes a student simply needs a fresh and alternative introduction to subject material. My job as a tutor is to find the teaching method that speaks most clearly to my student. By being patient, precise, persistent, and knowledgeable, I know I can help my student reach his/her academic goals.
My excellent writing skills, ACT score of 35, and passion for academics got me into Vanderbilt University, from which I acquired my BA in 2009. I studied every subject I could but found most pleasure in political science and sociology. In addition to these fields, I have expertise in grammar, essay composition, and a variety of creative arts. I also have teaching knowledge of the basic maths and sciences. Overall, I have about thr ... read more
