Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Tipton, MI

I pride myself on being innovative and tailoring teaching to the needs and interests of my students. An ability to relate the material to one's life and take ownership over your learning is the core of my teaching philosophy; therefore, I teach in a manner that best enable my student(s) to maximize this goal. Learning should be an experience, and I strive to develop activities and approaches to make this experience a pleasant and engaging one. My classes are fun. The activities are not wastes of time, and the end result is measurable growth in the subject area. My best quality is my ability to adapt and think on the fly. This means that I can address concerns and issues as they manifest; also, it means that I am not locked into one way of doing something. This means that on a given day, I can adjust the manner and method of instruction to suit the needs and interest of my stud

I had a wonderful teacher once who quoted a line from a Richard Brautigan book that went, "My teachers could easily have ridden with Jessie James for all the time they stole from me." He told us about making a promise to himself, when he began teaching, that he would never be the sort of teacher a student could say this about. I made the same promise when I began teaching. I have been blessed with some tremendous, inspirational teachers, and, like most of us, I have also had the lousy ones (the ones who admire test scores above creativity, who stack their bookshelves with textbooks instead of poems and stories, who prefer power to respect). My goal every day as a teacher is to work in a way that will bring me closer to those gifted teachers, and that will make the less than inspirational teachers shake their heads. In other words, I respect my students as human beings. I genuinely

I have a bachelor degree in chemistry and a master degree in environmental chemistry. I have more than 25 years of teaching experience. I taught general chemistry at the Faculty of Engineering of Universidad Catolica Andres Bello (Andres Bello Catholic University) and physical chemistry at the Instituto Pedagogico de Caracas (Caracas Pedagogical Institute). I have also been a translator (English/Spanish and Spanish/English) since 1999, so I know the weak points for those that have English as a source language and Spanish as a target language. In Michigan, I have been a Spanish tutor with a lot of students. I like teaching. I enjoy watching the learning process to see how a student becomes better and better, improving his/her knowledge with time. I am flexible about teaching methods. Some students need a lot of theoretical aspects, then exercises. Other students need only exercises becau
