I have many different teaching tactics depending on how someone prefers to learn. Some people are visual learners, and need the assistance of visual aids and presentations. Others like to learn about things by doing them. However someone enjoys learning, I believe is the best method. I have helped out several of my friends and family members, with everything from studying to hands on projects. I am looking to expand this help to others, and I also believe it will be a rewarding experience for myself. I, myself, enjoy the learning experience a lot, and hope to help others also find a way to enjoy their learning experience.

I have worked quite a lot with elementary school children, whether it be in or outside of work. I have done independent tutor work, mainly in the fields of Art and Language Arts. In the past I had a long-term job in which I was required to interact with young children, and I did so willingly. For two years in a row, I taught a Beginner's Guitar course for children and the feedback I received was overwhelmingly positive. I enjoy very much seeing things "click" with students, particularly young ones. It inspires me not only do teach well but also to always learn more myself.

As a teacher, I expose students to a variety of artists and their techniques. My students are taught the fundamentals of art first, mastering one skill at a time. I am very interactive with my students. We discuss new skills, students have visual examples, and I also demonstrate every technique. I feel that once students have knowledge of the fundamentals, they need to feel free to experiment and adapt different styles to suit their personal taste. Every child can reach their full potential, given the right environment and tools. As a graduate of Oakland University with degrees in both art and teaching, I have gained vast experience with a variety of students. My career began at Paint a Miracle, a Rochester art studio geared towards adults and children with special needs. I was in charge of tracking supply use, planning and executing lessons with my students, and assisted in selecting

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 experience with tutoring children is quite

I love teaching and working with people of any age that I can help both academically and otherwise. I love the one on one relationship that is developed through private teaching and tutoring. My best areas of focus are english, creative writing, grammar, music, basic computer skills, math, and economics. I feel rewarded whenever I am given the opportunity to help the future of students. I am currently a writing tutor and learning coordinator at the University of Michigan. I help to insure that student athletes receive a fair education while they are on scholarship. I tutor them on a weekly basis in most subjects but I focus primarily on writing and English. I am a very effective writing tutor both for grammar checking, composition, and essay writing.

I believe that assessment of a child's skills should drive the teacher's instruction. Every child should receive instruction that meets their individual needs. I believe that I inspire children to want to learn more and to explore freely. I demonstrate an enthusiasm towards teaching that my students respond to, and produces eager learners. I have been a kindergarten teacher for the last eight years. I differentiate my instruction to meet the needs of all children. As a result, my students conclude their kindergarten experience with reading and math skills at or above grade level expectations. Also, I focus on learning activities that foster the child's character and conflict resolution skills. Children demonstrate appropriate behaviors and coping skills amongst their peers. I also believe that fostering a child's fine and gross motor skills is of the utmost importance. I utilize

I am completing my degree in Elementary Education/Language Arts from Oakland University. I've spent countless hours in the classroom working with a variety of students. I have experience tutoring students in math and English. I have experience tutoring cognitively impaired students as well. I recently discovered alternate ways to teach math. I have learned the importance of using manipulatives to teach math concepts and believe that a hands-on approach to not only math, but every subject increases the students abilitiy to retain the information. I believe that everything needs to be couched in literature and have recently started my own library of books that explain different English and math concepts. Teaching another individual and seeing that "light bulb" when they finally understand a concept they have been struggling with is a great joy to me! I believe strongly about incorporating

I am used to teaching both students close to my age and students younger than I. I always try to explain ideas in ways that make the student think. I never like to hand answers to students, so I do my best at having students learn in their own way with someone helping them along. Being a virtuoso, I believe practice makes perfect in every subject. The way to best understand something new is to review it and practice it. I have a substantial amount of patience when it comes to teaching. I am also a very generous, kind, and humorous person who has learned to live life to its fullest. I work hard at making friends with everyone I meet everywhere, and I believe your best friend can also be your greatest influence in learning. Being currently enrolled in one of the Top 20 schools in the state of Michigan, learning is something that comes to me as second nature. Math, English, Science, Foreign

Like a lot of people, I've found that once you get the chance to teach, nothing else is as fun or fulfilling. My personality easy-going, mellow, positive, and tactful. I have found one of my greatest strengths in teaching is offering helpful and proactive feedback that encourages what is done right first, then suggests improvement where needed. In my teaching I try to focus on interdisciplinary concepts and relating art to other fields of knowledge for a more well-rounded and whole learning experience. During my time in college, I studied both Fine Art Painting and Art Education. Getting my BFA in Painting allowed me to study many disciplines of art while refining my painting techniques. At the same time, I earned my degree in Art Education and have an Indiana Teacher's License to teach visual art to all grades. I gained a lot of experience teaching, including six weeks each teachi

I also have a five year provisional teaching license for the state of Michigan certifying me to teach K-5th. I have been working in the field of childcare full time for the last five years. I have been the lead teacher of several infant care and education programs. Mostly I see to the minute to minute needs of numerous infants. Additionally, I create and implement lesson plans across a wide range of developmental areas and abilities. Monthly, I create displays of various activities and explorations that I have documented to show families what their children are doing. As a student I was most drawn to the ideas of Piaget and Gardner. Their teaching philosophies made the most sense to me when it came to teaching. Piaget focused on the idea of pla
