Saxophone Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Virginia City, NV

I work with students from age 2 to 82, and with all origins, cultures, and orientations. I specialize in using mental triggers to help in effective understanding and information retrieval (e.g., moving cookies on a table to demo electrical charge). I also teach with analogies to real world scenarios, using sources from around the world, and throughout history. Some problems have more than one root course, and some have coupled interactions that are difficult to isolate. I will also point out where there is more than one solution to a given problem, where management often gets to choose, based on a tradeoff between budget and warranty. I have taught classes/tutored/judged efforts in Math, Science, Controls, Robotics, Matlab/Simulink, Beginning Computing, Effective WWW Searches, Neural Networks/Artificial Intelligence, Alternative Energy, Writing Resumes, Spelling, Grammar, Effective

As an honors graduate, from SNC, I've always kept an open-mind, and creative perspective on ideas/methods of teaching and learning. I've earned my AA, BA, and Nv.Elementary Licensure for grades K-8 as of 2004. During the last decade I have been in the classroom as a student, and a teacher/tutor and my philosophy is to teach through the avenue/intelligence my students comprehend best,therefore their understanding of concepts and ideas become concrete so they can retain this information/knowlege and utilize it for further learning opportunities and experiences. Teaching and working with children is what I've always wanted to do-since I was 7 years old-I knew in my heart and soul-I would be a teacher! All children/students are intelligent and smart, in their own unique ways. I am kind, patient, courteous, ambitious, creative, and open-minded with a great imagination for creative teaching &
