Once I have an understanding of what a student is capable of I like to push them to go past their "comfort zone" in learning. It helps them understand that what may look difficult, may not always be so and that they only way to find out is to learn it. Also, I do not teach study habits. Instead I like to see what a students current habits are and work on expanding those habits so that the child does not get frustrated and overwhelmed. It is easier to learn more from current knowledge than try to teach a whole new way. After all, most students study habits are based on how their teacher has taught them, and I wouldn't go against what the teacher has taught. The point of tutoring is to help a child understand the work they are currently doing in school. It is my job to make sure that happens. I will want to speak with your child to determine the best way to teach them.

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : Earth Sciences includes: Physical Geography and Geology, Geology is one of my two majors.

I like students to understand how the material they are learning can and is being applied to everyday situations. So I often will talk about the big topics that have been covered explain why they are useful and then show the student how to perform various calculations or apply the nessecary logic to solve problems.
I am a Mechanical Engineering and Geology dual major with a 3.6 GPA. I understand mathematics very well and have tutored fellow students in math and physics, successfully for years. I have a passion for learning and love when I can help others learn complex material and pass classes. I have aced College Math up through Differential Equations and Calculus 3 algebra, trigonometry and geometry are foundations of the higher mathematics and therefore I understand them extremely well. I know the basics of both electrical and mechanical engineering mathematics. For example, tra ... read more

Passionate about learning.

I have experience as a peer tutor. Since I am an avid reader, I love all things related to books, vocabulary, literature and English. I have young children that I help daily with homework assignments. I have also worked many years as a trainer in genetics. I am also a DI(directed instruction) volunteer for elementary school. I enjoy opportunities to share my knowledge with others and learn as well.
I realize that everyone learns differently, and I believe in flexibility. I also believe in encouraging success and consistency.

I believe that the first step in teaching is to build a good rapport with the student and understand the problems, fear of study, inhibitions, apprehensions and dreams of the student. Once, the student and teacher are comfortable in each other's presence, things can proceed from there. I find it easy to build a rapport with children and present a light, fun environment where they do not feel threatened. I strongly believe thay my love for studying and taking examinations and my real life experiences while I worked professionally will be beneficial to children whom I teach.Each child is an individual and needs to be understood and approached accordingly. In every recommendation that I have received, I have been complimented on my ability to get along well with people. This is very important for a good teaching environment.

A Little Bit About Me...

Through teaching students with learning disabilities and tutoring a sister with Down’s Syndrome, I learned not only are no two children alike, but they don’t learn the same either. I pride myself in explaining even what seems to be the simplest task in a variety of ways, and won’t be satisfied until my student not only sees the answer but also understands. I constantly change my teaching style depending on the child and his or her learning style. I am quick to think on my feet if I need to throw the lesson plan “out the window” and start again fresh. I am a caring person who conveys that to those students I teach. One cannot begin to mold a child's life unless you have a mutual trust, love and understanding for one another. It is up to people like myself, dedicated teachers, to help students reach their individual goals.
As a cum laude graduate, I have always strived to achie ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although new to tutoring, I have worked with children extensively and participated in peer tutoring throughout middle school and high school. I have an excellent rapport with children and young adults and my knowledge is not limited to the area of foods and nutrition. I have excellent creative writing skills as well as a very strong knowledge of language, arts and sociology.
As the youngest of three children, I always wanted a younger sibling and became the busiest baby-sitter in my town throughout middle and high school. I truly enjoy working with children and young adults and have exceptional patience and empathy for young people. I am very free spirited and enjoy having fun while showing students the amazing world of learning. Each child is different and I believe you must first build trust with the student and establish a relationship while studying their working habits an ... read more

Throughout my years of teaching I had some students who needed additional help so I tutored along with my teaching. I spent extra time with them after class or in a laboratory. I won many awards for teaching and was selected teacher of the year in 2002. Along with adult college students, I have worked with Boy Scouts, middle school students and high school students. Also, I volunteered as an instructor for the Charlotte Mecklenburg School System.
My teaching style is like a coach. I show the student the method to solve the problem and then I observe, correct and praise the student while he/she solves similar problems. It is important to explain the underlining principle in the problem so the student will be able to solve similar problems without just memorizing a few rules. I try to use the best learning style (verbal, logical, visual, auditory, kinesthetic, etc) that fits eac ... read more

I love children and I love helping them to learn and grow. I acknowledge that each child is unique and that every child learns in different ways. Although the field of education can be challenging, for me it is also very rewarding. Every student can learn. My goal has always been to help students succeed and learn to the best of their ability.
I began working in the education field as a teacher's aide at the high school level. After a few year, I obtained my bachelor degree, I began working with Elementary students. I finally became a K-12 substitute Teacher, teaching a wide variety of students. After graduating with my Masters degree in Education I began worked as a fifth and sixth grade elementay school teacher.

I can imagine that a degree in film may deter you from my candidacy but I would like to bring to your attention the statistics about children and television/movies. The average American child spends 3.5 minutes per week with parents in meaningful conversation. The average child watches 1,680 minutes of television per week. 54 percent of 4-6 year-olds who, when asked to choose between watching TV and spending time with their fathers, preferred television. The number of hours per year the average American youth spends in school is 900 hours. The number of hours per year the average American youth watches television is 1500 hours. I can relate to these kids and what they know and are into. And I can use that as a way to help them learn to love learning, especially reading and writing. Kids today don't understand plot, setting, characters, nouns, verbs, prepositions but if you relate tho ... read more
