I am a clinical psychologist with specialties in health psychology, neuropsychology,rehab psychology, developmental,and abnormal psychology. I am very diverse and have the ability to explain concepts by examples, I use visual and experiential examples to help integrate learning from more than just a reading level. I use my clinical experience to help explain in a very basic way how the body and mind work. I make attempts for individuals to not just memorize information but to understand and apply this information. Though I provide the structure to get through the lesson I also encourage students to ask questions and look beyond the basic meaning of information.

An understanding of the student and his/her background, strengths and weaknesses, and motivation is key to successful learning. This student-centered approach has gained favor in recent years, and using this approach in an interactive way allows the student to develop critical-thinking skills at an optimal pace. As a graduate student at the University of Chicago, I was responsible for leading introductory core Biology labs, which covered an array of concepts in biology, statistics, computer usage, and experimental design. Because lab reports were frequent requirements, I also was able to improve skills as a writing tutor I had already developed as a writing tutor (paid student position) in the Writing Lab at Towson University. I also have taught a remedial study- and life-skills course for students on Academic Probation at the University of Arizona. Finally, in my capacity as Academic Ad

Every student learns differently, but anyone who is open to learning is capable. I enjoy teaching children and teenagers for the spark that they get when something clicks, and they suddenly see the world differently. My experience working with different age levels, from all economic backgrounds, has taught me that all students, no matter their position in life, have something to teach me as well. I am patient and easy-going, but I don't give up. As a PhD student in sociology at the University of Arizona, I work as a teaching assistant, helping students understand upper division course material in sociology. I also write and grade exams for these courses. I have taken four courses (three at the graduate level) in statistics, so I am also qualified to tutor in this area. I have experience with students of all ages; I taught science at the elementary school level, worked as a Residential Ad

My Experience: In 1964, I graduated from Columbia College, in Geology. Subsequently, I worked in oil well drilling in Israel, and on a dam project in New Jersey. After earning an MA in Art Education, at Brooklyn College in 1975, I helped found the Waltham Mass. Artists Association, where I created beautiful enamels, and mentored several child students. One of my favorite projects, with friends, was facilitating the creation, exchange, and display of peace and environmental posters, by kids (and adult artists) in the USA and around the world. I also worked for over 20 years as a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable Teacher/Naturalist for the Mass. Audubon Society. For several years before I left Mass. in 2006, I also worked as a tutor for Club "Z", "No Child Left Behind", in Math and English, in the "inner city."

I am a graduate from the University of Virginia and was an Echol's Scholar and on the Dean's List, where I finished my B.A. degree in 3 years. I was at the top of my High School graduating class. I scored a 1440 on my SAT's (730 - Verbal, 710- Math) and took 9 AP exams scoring (7) 5's and (2) 4's. I have very strong writing and communication skills and will be able to give my students my very best. I am an excellent tutor and will make sure my students have a thorough and complete understanding of the subject they are struggling in. I have a natural ability to break down and clearly explain the material to my students in a way that they will be able to comprehend and internalize. I believe all children have to ability to learn and master any subject just so long as it is explained to them in a way they can understand; if they are having trouble, the burden falls on the instructor

I do not believe in hierarchy. I think the teacher-student or tutor-student relationship should be one of equal footing and mutual discovery. This means asking questions together and seeking out the fundamental answers to questions. I think all children and adults deserve a place to learn about themselves and the world around them where they are free to ask any question and challenge any assumption. This does not mean I am a push over and cannot create structure in a lesson. I just strive to do it in a way that does not discourage creativity and authentic discovery about themselves and the world. I attended college at three different schools, on athletic scholarship in two of them. I earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Philosophy and BA in Political Science. After graduating I spent one semester teaching sciences at an outdoor based alternative middle and elementary school just outsid

I attended Northern Arizona University, whereupon I fell in love with sociology. I have a firm grasp of basic and advanced sociological concepts, specializing in historical analysis and research methods. After school, I spent my time working temporary jobs, and found one that I thoroughly enjoyed. At Wyko I aquired a set of technical skills that allowed me to work on some of the most advanced instruments of the day. So far as my teaching is concerned, I have been teaching for a number of years as a full-time instructor for elementary students. Many of these students include special needs and emotionally handicapped children. My teaching style is Socratic in method. I have learned a large variety of techniques to help teach some of the most basic to the most advanced concepts to a large audience of students. I like to mold my teaching style to fit with each individual student. As

I have had an opportunity to teach every grade level from Pre-K through college seminars. I take pride in helping students understand difficult material. Because of my broad experience and my easy-going personality, I am able to communicate with students of all ages and backgrounds and find ways to help them learn. Education is the cornerstone of life, and I strive to find ways to help students succeed. During the last several years, I have worked in the education field in a variety of ways. I have served as a full time teacher and a substitute teacher. Also, I have helped develop a violence awareness curriculum and implemented it in several schools. In 2001 I earned my BA in Sociology from the University of Notre Dame. Since that time I have worked in the education field and in the social work field.

Having taught college English in rural China, I have found that I am extremely adaptable in my teaching style. I have the ability to precisely coordinate my teaching techniques with the background and needs of the student in order to create a succesful and executable educational support system. In teaching, I aim to provide the student with a breadth of perspective in any given topic while enhancing their analytical abilities. It is my firm belief that a mindful tutor can help make a mindful student, and that every student deserves systematic and attentive support. In teaching each and every one of my students, I take to heart the philosophy that a good education is absolutely invaluable. Over the course of my twenty-three years I have received an international education by way of inter-continental travel and attendance to a world-class university. I have spent much time in the volunteer

I love working with children and helping them find new and creative ways to learn. I am patient, easy going, and creative. When I tutored privately, my students enjoyed working with me and I always tried to make our sessions pleasurable and even fun! My students can always call me at home for extra help and I am available most evenings and even weekends. I truly enjoy helping students learn and achieve to their highest potential. I have spent 30 years in the educational field providing both guidance and counseling as well as tutoring to children ages five through fourteen. I thoroughly enjoyed being a counselor to children. I also found that tutoring students was equally rewarding. I mostly tutored language arts and reading as I consider grammar a strong point of mine. I would very much like to tutor students again through your program.

I have had experience teaching that is inquiry-based but have also taught in a more factual style with lecture. I believe that each student has a different style of learning, and I am more than willing to adapt to the child. It is crucial for students to understand all the fundamentals of education, so that higher levels (college) of education will be obtained. I always make sure the student understands the material every step of the way so that they will not fall behind. I also believe that the student must take what they learn and apply it. I also believe that by excelling in certain areas of school and improving, this will give a higher confidence to the students that will be apparent in all areas of school. I graduated with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. During my college experience at the University of Arizona, I have participated in two programs that allowed me to teach
