As a high school student I tutored as part of the National Honor Society for 2 years. I tutored elementary and middle school students in group settings after school. I helped them with all subjects. After graduating from Michigan State University I have been tutoring privately in college level mathematics. I also attended a semester of Medical School and at the end of the semester I was selected to be a teaching assistant for Anatomy. I assisted for a few weeks but then I had to leave medical school due to bereavement reasons. My experience as an assistant for those weeks was very exciting, but was similar to how I interacted with my lab partners in making sure that everyone knew the material the previous semester. I enjoy working with children and providing them with the opportunity to better their education. The smile on a person's face when they understand the material or are a

I have found my joy and it is teaching. I believe that with patience, appropriate instructional methods and a positive environment every person is able to learn. Through periodicals and personal research, I do my best to remain conscious of best practices and alternative teaching strategies. My self reflection skills are well developed which allows for quick and constructive lesson modifications. A significant effort is made to incorporate many learning styles into every lesson. I also attempt to employ technology and real world experiences whenever possible. To instill a love for learning while teaching specific material is my ultimate goal. Perpetual student is a label I proudly accept. I began my post-secondary education acquiring a Bachelor of Arts in Performing Arts-Dance with a minor in Psychology. I continued my schooling by earning a Massage Therapy Certification then com

Since a high school student I dream about to be a teacher. Now I think its my passion to teach and prepare our next generation for future and to make them successful in their career and life. I love to teach children and never get tense or hyper due to their mistakes, because children are in learning stage and we have to make them to learn as much as they can. I prefer to relate the study topic with some aspect of child's life to give him clear idea and better understanding about the topic. I have earned Bs degree from University of Memphis with Chemistry as major and Mathematics as minor. After graduation I been working as research associate at University of Memphis in analytical chemistry division. During my research work I have made three manuscripts for publication in American chemical society. During my studying and research I have learned many skills including writing, grammatical

I have had nearly five years of experience in tutoring and mentoring. During college I was an English as a Second Language (ESL) tutor at two different non-profits. I currently am an Americorps member in the Downriver communities. In this position I teach ESL, GED prep, after-school tutoring, as well as a science program aimed at elementary students in River Rouge. I have a hands on teaching style that mixes fun activities with an emphasis on asking children questions. I pay attention to each individual student and try to figure out what their learning style is. I try to center activities around how they learn (ie. if they are a textile learner, I'll bring in physical shapes to work on geometric problems as opposed to worksheets). I believe that application and explanation to others are the best route of learning, so I like to have kids who are at different levels work together on s

I can’t imagine myself not spending the rest of my life teaching. I have worked both in the educational field and the corporate world and without a doubt I know with whom my heart belongs. As a tutor at an Ann Arbor based institution I had the opportunity to work with a number of different backgrounds and styles of learning. I aided a varying degree of students needs such as: grammatical usage, content flow and structure, topic generation, sentence structure, MLA/APA implementation, research methods, written language norms, etc. I have great passion for both education and learning which I hope to share with every student with whom I work. I believe every student is cable of producing a positive educational outcome if given the proper tools and encouragement. Not all students comprehend material in the same way, I believe it is up to educators to help their students recognizes their stren

The key to educating children is to instill in them a lifelong passion for learning. Every day I try to do that with my students. Although, they come into my class with a lot of "baggage" from home and challenges with being bilingual I build their confidence through specific praise. I also challenge them to think "out of the box". I applaud creativity and discovery. In addition, I provide a safe learning environment by being patient and understanding of their needs. Through this, I hope I instill in my students what they need to meet their life's goals and dreams. The summer I was a camp counselor I knew that I wanted to make a difference in children's lives. At that point, I decided to complete my BS in Kinesiology and then pursue an MA in Education. Upon graduation, I was employed by Detroit Public Schools teaching low income, bilingual children. I have predominantly taught se
