A Little Bit About Me...

I began teaching 22 years ago at a middle school and later taught high school when I relocated to the beach. I also tutored at a local community college. The most rewarding aspect of teaching and tutoring is when the lightbulb goes off at the crucial point of understanding in the student's mind. I have a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Masters Degree in Human Resource Management and School Leadership. Furthermore, I have 67 additional education credits pertaining to teaching, tutoring, communication and human resources. I feel it's important to stay abreast of current educational trends, research and developments which ultimately affect the teaching style and learning effectiveness of the individuals involved.
Each student is unique. Therefore, I use a variety of teaching styles, strategies, methods and techniques depending on the individual's needs and abilities. A ... read more

I am a certified 6 - 12 Secondary Mathematics teacher. I have been teaching for 10 years with my last four being at the college level. I have been awarded the Who's Who a number of times. I just received my master's degree in mathematics from Marquette this spring.
I am a compassionate person who will do whatever it takes to help students succeed. I always encourage my students to ask as many questions as they need to so that they have a firm understanding of the material. I love seeing the growth in the individual student. Students who have had me as a teacher report that they thought they were incapable of doing math but after taking my course their confidence has exceeded their expectations.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a number of useful skills and abilities that I bring to a classroom. I have a very broad set of educational areas in which I am comfortable. I have a B.S. in Biology, a B.A. in History, and a minor in Political Science, as well as a Masters in teaching. I possess significant teaching experience, having taught American History, Earth Science, and General Science at the secondary level. Additionally, I have substituted in every grade from fifth through twelfth and in classes from art to P.E. math to music.
Students must be challenged, not coddled. Students at all levels need to be pushed to find their limits and then move beyond them. Only then can they achieve real growth. We must use education as a tool to educate the next generation not only for employment but also for citizenship. In so doing, we need to take into account historical precedents and objective reality ... read more

Words cannot express my love and passion for teaching, I would say it is a profession that requires a great deal of patience and understanding but the payoff from its efforts is definitely worth it to me. Being student oriented, nurturing and supporting the growth of my students is fulfilling to me. I thrive on being a part of the development of their personal and social awareness. My compassion for others makes it a joy for me to work with students. My teaching is at its best when I am creating a rapport with students. I feel good when magic springs from the learning experiences and growth of my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

My passion is developing the full potential of my students by providing them with the skills that foster the ability to solve problems and think for themselves. While any discipline requires rigorous training and a mastery of its facts, quality instruction also awakens the ability to see connections, think critically, and apply one's learning to evaluate contemporary problems or historical events. Accomplished teachers utilize as many teaching styles and methods as there are kinds of students and levels of proficiency. I construct my classes on the basis of guided discovery. The challenge is to make history come alive by arousing the imagination and effectively placing students in other worlds.
I began teaching and serving as an Advisor while still an undergraduate at Shimer College. I was given the honor of designing and teaching advanced tutorials in the Humanities. I also c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In the mid-to-late 1980s I led workshops and served as a chaperone for U.S. and international foreign exchange program students aged 16-19 under the auspices of American Field Services (AFS). Then in the late 1980s and mid-1990s, I taught the basic speech course (public speaking) at several urban/suburban college and university settings (DePaul University, Loyola University, College of DuPage, Harper College), in addition to storytelling classes at two non-traditional adult learning centers in Chicago. Currently, I am applying for substitute teaching at Winnetka and Evanston high schools, as well as for standardized test and reading/writing skills tutoring jobs before I become a State of Illinois certified English Language Arts teacher (middle/high school level) in June 2010.
In my view, education is an ongoing process. I believe successful learning is mutual between teacher and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I started my teaching career as a Teach For America corps member in Atlanta, Georgia, where I taught sixth grade language arts at Crawford Long Middle School. Most recently, I had the honor of teaching at KIPP: LEAD College Prep Charter School in Gary, Indiana. I previously held Language Arts Certificates (6-12) in both Georgia and Indiana. I also have experience tutoring college freshmen in an introductory college writing seminar.
Teaching was never a job for me, but rather a way to practice a passion. I believe that every child possesses the ability to learn and it is the responsibility of educators to cultivate such talent and foster growth. I believe in helping students reach their potential by teaching them to pose and answer questions about the world around them. My classroom was a place where children were excited about learning. I made sure to convey my love of the English ... read more
