Advertising Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Union Lake, MI

I believe that all children all capable of learning and that each one learns in their own way. The basis behind successful teaching is to find what motivates them and relate that to the subject. I'm a patient teacher but I also believe in being a challenging teacher. Setting the bar high and providing assistance along the way is how I excelled in school and I believe it can be used for other children as well. As a graduate of Tennessee State University, I've been very driven to consistently purse excellence education. I ranked in the top 10% of my class upon graduation and during my tenure I worked within the schools substitute teaching programs. Mentoring/tutoring students in area high schools and middle schools, while also working with students in the Upward Bound Program.

After graduating from Central Michigan with a BS in Business, I decided to go back to school to become a science teacher. I will be certified to teach grades 7-12 in Biology and in Chemistry. I am currently finishing up my last 3 classes before I begin student teaching. In the fall I will teach classes at Eastern Michigan to prospecting elementary teachers. I have also taught several lessons at the middle school and high school level and have tutored students one-on-one. Science is not the easiest of concepts to grasp so in order to enhance student learning I input a bit of humor into my lesson. I am very good at creating analogies to scientific processes and I have seen positive results from this. My goal is to create student understanding without the typical "memorize and recall" method which I feel is a burden on education and does not promote student learning. I love teaching sc

My teaching style is not easily defined as each student learns differently. To be an effective teacher I must adapt to the learning style of each student and address their needs accordingly. Although, I do not possess a definite teaching style I do have a specific set of guidelines or practices that I implement in the teaching/tutoring process. For instance, I encourage students to always ask questions. If you don’t understand the approach that I am taking, please stop me so that I can use another approach. This not only helps me do my best job but it also ensures that the student doesn't get frustrated and it establishes a level of trust in the relationship. With a BA in Communications from Michigan State University and a MBA from the University of Phoenix, I have learned the value of education and understand the weight it holds in society.

My professional career has centered on writing, first as a reporter/editor and then in corporate public affairs, internal communications and marketing communications. Even as a writer, I was drawn to teaching others how to communicate effectively and conducted internal workshops and one-on-one tutoring for less experienced writers. On a more formal basis, I taught business writing part-time at two universities. I also have been employed as a reader for a company that grades state assessment tests, most recently fourth grade reading on the MEAP -- Michigan Education Assessment Program. To me, there is nothing more gratifying than achieving the "aha" moment when a child or adult understands a concept and can put it into practice. Because there is no single path to arriving at that moment, I believe it is necessary to understand how a student best learns and then tailor my tutoring to his o

My passion is in watching others to succeed, and I am willing to change my own methods to make that happen. Thus, my tutoring style depends almost entirely on the student as I have found that the most common reason a tutor is needed is that the student's learning style does not match with the teacher's teaching style. I can tutor through examples, visually drawing concepts, talking, describing the reasons behind a concept, and most importantly, I can relate almost every subject to daily life. I began officially tutoring four years ago, starting up a private tutoring business. Through it, I have taught ages 5 through 55 in nearly all subjects, including mathematics, science, physics, ACT, and English. I also have tutored publicly at Oakland University for one year, where I earned my tutoring certification (level 1).

My teaching style is interactive. I like to give students a chance to apply what they have learned in groups or aloud amid classroom peers. Each student is different and might require more assistance than others, so in practice, the more the student works at a problem the better he/she becomes. In some cases remediation could be in order and if so, take home practice work could be in order. I have been a guest teacher in several school districts over the years off andd on. Since I worked in Telecommunications most of my life, I worked occasionally for agencies that assign guest teachers to different schools daily. In my current degree program, I write extensively on various topics such as human development and leadership. I have tutored before in basic math and basic algebra as well as english.

I dealt directly with children and families from disenfranchised populations, demographically diverse populations, and special needs populations. What I value most is having the opportunity to work with adults and children simultaneously. This gave me a broad over-standing of how to approach very challenging situations. In addition, what I have found to be an effective tool when working with academically challenged youth is having patience, and showing unconditional positive self-regaurd. My resume highlights my ability, knowledge, and expertise in individual and group therapy at a master level in the field of social work. During my time at Eastern Michigan University, I was able to advance my skill set and knowledge-base by being in a supervisory role. As I matriculated, I learned how to multi-task as I was a graduate student and an employee for EMU. In my role I tutored and advised col

I have much to offer in the way of diversity of experience and profession in that I have worked in two (2) major industries: finance and currently, education. Within these industries I have had the opportunity to learn policies, procedures and the protocol necessary to enforce them ethically and without liability. From my work in the educational field I have sharpened my organizational skills, attention to detail and my ability to work with speed and accuracy. My experience has been tutor/volunteer work during my 4 years of college and some post work. I love to teach my students using things that matter to them. Explaining a word problem using candy or food helps student relate to the issue at hand.
