Holding an MBA with a total of 18 years of experience in Business and tutoring. I am very passionate about teaching and assisting others in their career/educational path by using practical tools. I can lead you into solving the problem your way. I love to help people understand and learn subjects they find difficult. There is no greater reward than to be a part of someone else's success! I do first an assessment online to test your skill level of proficiency, diagnose the difficulty you are having, and show you how to get around that difficulty. There are many correct ways to solve problems, and I will lead you into solving it in a way you are comfortable, and in the end will do final assessment to see the improvement.

Throughout my academic career, I have done in-class tutoring in exchange for credit. I have also helped my family members, neighbors, and friends to study, complete homework, and even do reports. My range of subjects is very versatile, anything from Oceanography, to Intercultural Communications, to Culinary Arts, and even 3D sculpture and design. Of course outside of these elective type courses, I have a 3.7 GPA in my general education, including Math, English, Science, and Social Studies. I attended a charter high school, where we took outside the box classes that met the state regulations. I was taking botany and forensics for science, and African American and Native American history classes. This gave me and opportunity to think outside the box, and become more well rounded. I have been gifted with many brilliant teachers with many different approaches to teaching, and app

I have been preparing and conducting adult coursework for a variety of computer - based applications and software for 15 or more years. The courses were done in large lecture environments (30 or more at a time) and also small or individuals sessions, and remote (phone and web-ex) deliveries. I am experienced in assessing group attitude and individual needs and am told that I am very adept at putting my "students" at ease, both through delivery style and in customizing and breaking down the materials for the particular person or group. I am a mother of 2 grown children and one young grandchild. When my children were in elementary school I volunteered at least 1/2 day each week in their classrooms - helping as needed. Sometimes that meant a little extra time with a student learning to tie his shoes, and other days reading to a circle of children. I love helping others learn and grow

My teaching style is very creative. Yes, I believe in teaching the basics, but make learning fun. I like to do fun games or art projects or use music to inspire and teach the children. That way they will have fun and learn at the same time. My experience is not as a liscensed teacher. I have been more of an assistant or tutor. I have worked with k-6th grade students-some of which are/were physically and /or mentally challenged.

My experience in tutoring computers for the last 6 years and facilitating study sessions in college for the last 4 years has refined my skills in directing absorption of knowledge in a direction that is organized and on-task. As an avid and trained grammarian and writer, my strengths are in English. As such, I was a paid tutor for Syntax, Principles of Modern Grammar, Phonology and Sociolinguistics classes over a few semesters. However, I am malleable to teach any subject to which I am exposed (astronomy, science, etc). You can always expect a professional approach to the job from me. A strength on which I have always prided myself is my ability to relate complex concepts with useful analogies and from different angles. I never underestimate a child's ability to learn something, so long as it's in a way in which they understand it. Curriculum development is also important. By that

Not only working with children, but teaching them has always been a passion of mine. I have worked at the YMCA of the Sierra for almost 4 years, and tutoring children through UNR has been such a pleasure and privilege. I have gained the insight and honest understanding that any child, with specialized help, can move far beyond their educational and emotional expectations and abilities, proving to especially themselves their own potential. I used the method of Behavior Analysis during my tutoring of Autistic children, which has truly taught me a lot in respect to creative methods and organized procedures for teaching and/or tutoring children. In attending the University of Nevada, Reno, I was introduced to and involved with several programs working with youth. I was a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) working with children who were removed from their home for various reasons. (Paren

I began tutoring my freshman year of college. I participated in a Sparks High School program designed to assist and motivate at risk students to achieve their educational goals. Tutoring continued through my own educational career, as I have spent countless hours assisting fellow peers and younger students with their school work. Now as a young professional, I would like to continue to assist today’s youth. My Law degree, along with my Bachelor of Science and Associate of Arts degrees in Business Management, shows my diverse expertise in both language arts and math. In addition, I highly enjoy science and have always excelled in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Most of my life has been focused on obtaining my education and improving my educational goals.

I believe all students can achieve success given the right learning experience and motivation. I appreciate that there are several methods through which students learn, and I believe the key to effective teaching is to find the right method for each student. There are many ways to explain any subject. If one explanation does not make sense, it is usually possible to find another way to say, write, draw or demonstrate the same idea. I am very patient and considerate of students’ needs, and I try to be as sensitive as possible to the learning style of each student. My goal is to provide the most educational experience possible by finding the learning style that works best for each student and by allowing them to learn through discovery. I have earned a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in mining engineering which have given me a deep understanding in many areas of math, science

I recently graduated from University of Nevada, Reno summa cum laude. I was also my high school valedictorian. I have always excelled in school because I love learning and have great organization and study skills. Almost all of my work experience has been with students— from working as a preschool teacher to volunteering to tutor elementary school students at the Boys and Girls Club to advising high school students in the Upward Bound program to tutoring college students in the University Writing Center. I have a friendly, encouraging approach with my students; I like them to feel comfortable working with me, but I also let them know that I have high expectations and that our tutoring sessions are not social time. My goal is to get students to understand the material and feel comfortable discussing and applying it, so my tutoring sessions are often very conversational. I provide a lot
