Based on my past teaching experiences, I have learned that in order to motivate students to learn, it’s imperative to make connections between the curriculum and their prior experiences and interests. I believe that it is unrealistic to expect students to learn at the same rate and have identical learning styles, so teachers must differentiate their instruction to account for all types of learning abilities, levels, interests, and talents. For instance, teachers should be able and willing to plan lessons and/or assessments that allow students to utilize their own individual and unique intelligences, such as perhaps music or art. I graduated from Illinois State University in 2005 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology, and a friend recommended me for an assistant job within a special education cooperative. I accepted the position and continued doing this for five years. The time I s

My teaching style could not be better described than to quote Ignacio Estrada, “If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.” I believe we are all granted certain talents and gifts and sometimes we just need that little bit of guidance to reach deep down and find how we can be our very best. Let me help your child reach his or her full potential. In addition to being a patient and caring tutor, I teach with empathy. I appreciate how children can feel a loss of confidence in themselves, especially when their peers are excelling at a time they are not. In a positive and nurturing environment, I will help your child build confidence in his or her abilities, aligning the path for academic achievement. My B.A. is in History and Social Behavioral Science. This encompasses Psychology, Sociology, Social Work, Economics and Political Science. After graduat

As an active member of my community, in the form of pageantry, volunteering, and leadership, I have always enjoyed instructing others. Currently, I love my job at Midwest Generation as an Instructional Designer of Training. I get to train Engineers and Office Managers on subjects I knew little about, and have grown in responsibility and development. I love kids, since my summer camp instruction job I held all throughout High School as well as an active instructor at my church. I just graduated from Illinois State University about a year ago, and am recently educated and knowledgeable in all subjects, especially English, Social Studies, and Math. I also have five years of French studies. Every student is different, therefore every student has different needs. Every student also can learn differently, whether it be by incorporating more or less visual learning strategies, auditory learning

My teaching style is positive. I also find ways to remember material by relating it to something familiar. I also advise students that studying the material each day as they learn will produce far better results than cramming before a test. I obtained my associate’s degree at Prairie State College in 1997. I received the honor of Valedictorian by my high educational standards of earning a 4.0 GPA. My main focus was to learn as much as possible in the sciences, such as biology, anatomy, chemistry, and microbiology. During my last full-time semester at Prairie State, I started a full-time curriculum at Worsham College of Mortuary Science. Worsham has a two year schedule condensed into one year. I earned a 96.32% GPA diploma and moved on to receive my Illinois Professional Funeral Director and Embalming License in 1998. While at Prairie State College, I volunteered at grammar scho

Education has been a strong theme in my life and I know every kid deserves to have the same opportunity that I have had in my life. Even though I don't have any professional teach training, I compelled to help those that I can, using what I have learned. Everyone has a different learning style, so I believe in being patient and finding a unique way to teach each child according to his style. I am very patient and understanding person, who is willing to do what it takes to make a difference it at least one child’s life. Having a Biochemistry degree, I am well trained in science classes. I was also required and excelled in math classes up to Calculus 3. Therefore, math and science are my strong points. I was a tutor for math and science in the Multi-Cultural Center at my community college for a year. I was also a Sunday school teacher at my church for kids ranging from the age of 8 to 13

I first question the students in what they already know to see the areas that need less instruction. Then I ask them problems from their school texts and see how they do. This will give me some knowledge of where the student is failing and the area that needs more support. I then ask them at the session's end if they learned something and how that makes them feel. This is most important because if the student does not feel that they are learning and what the knowledge can be used for, they will loose interest and not pay attention in class. This is why many fail technical courses because unlike other subjects, math and science builds upon itself so if you do not learn the basics first, the next topics will be harder to grasp.

I have also completed all the coursework for my Masters Degree in Teaching and will student teach in the spring semester 2012. I will obtain my Masters, and Elementary Ed Cert with endorsements in Language Arts, Business and ESL in May 2012. I love working with kids because they have such a unique and unbiased view of life. They say what they are thinking and they have no hidden agendas or ill conceived motivation. They are eager to learn, to talk, to share what's on their minds. They are in a position to be molded and shaped constantly and my bigg

I began my teaching career as a tutor for first grade ESL students. The following year I was hired by the Chicago Public School system as a third grade teacher, where I taught for six years. Since leaving, I have worked as a substitute-teacher for several school districts where I am currently employed. When I was a classroom teacher, I tried as much as possible to individualize my instruction. I would begin each lesson with whole class instructions, but once the students began the work, I would move around the room in order to give more focused attention to those that required it. My classroom always focused on personal progress rather than comparisons. I believe that learning is most likely to occur when students believe in their own ability to learn and are able to discuss and reflect on their own learning.

I used to volounteer to help my fellow students in sessions similar to tutor under supervision of the assistant professor (who holds a PhD degree in the subject). I was designated "dissector"; Those prepare for the "practical-lab." class for Anatomy. In Egyptian schools of medicine, they still use cadavers. Plastic models are gradually and partially taking over currently. Anyway, I was preferred because I use the "personal" language and the special aproach for each person.People around me call me the best "coach" because of my way of helping. I never give them a direct answer; Insetead, I give them either a "hint", a "reminder" or a "source" to find it out by themselves. When it comes to starting a new subject, I start with questions to stimulate minds first. I start from the last step, example: How can we do elbow flexion? Then elbow joint constituents and their relation to each other
