Learning can be fun!!

When tutoring, I strive to make lessons engaging, effective and enjoyable. Specifically, I tailor lessons according to an individual student's needs and involve students in a dialogue by asking questions that provoke thought, conversation, and perhaps humor. Because facts and figures are easily looked up in the information age, I place particular emphasis on thinking and on "learning how to learn". My teaching goals for any student are threefold: 1. learn the material (well!) 2. pass the test/subject (with a comfortable margin!), and 3. enjoy it (most challenging with math!).
I love learning and teaching alike. My first teaching experience was in high school when I helped teach inner city children how to swim. Following high school, I earned a bachelor's degree in genetics at UC Berkeley, during which time I worked as a teacher's assistant for a genetics professor. While in m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very student-centered. I believe that all students can learn any subject if the teaching style is adapted to the student's learning needs and prior experience. I further believe that learning should be fun for the student and to this end I constantly seek out interesting resources for students. I am patient and expect high achievement from students, but I also believe that high achievement only occurs when education is tailored to the student. I am currently a Master's student in Educational Psychology and I incorporate empirical research data into my method of teaching; I believe in doing what is proven to work to help students achieve!
I tutored English and Humanities in the Academic Skills Center of my alma mater, Heritage University. I was a Teacher's Assistant at this university for two semesters and often took over for the class in place of the professor. I tutored prima ... read more

Teaching is a great way to educate and to learn. As a tutor, first, I see the student’s understanding level. I plan ahead of time and prepare proper material. However, if the material is provided, I find effective methods of teaching, and teach each student accordingly. It’s obvious that some techniques work better for some students but not others. Therefor, I choose a good teaching method, and assist students to learn the material better, faster and easier.
As a recent graduate of San Diego State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and minor in Psychology, I have taken many classes in biology, physics, algebra, psychology, chemistry as well as organic chemistry. I learned how to plan, provide and educated students by teaching and tutoring sciences and English classes for four years. Throughout my working experiences, I learned how to manage and organize an efficient ... read more

I have recently completed my MBA at national University. I currently teach high school part time at a alternative high school. This recent experience provided me with opportunity to work with students in a one-on-one basis as well as familiarize myself with every core class offered in the high school program. I feel I can comfortably teach French as I studied French in Montreal when I lived there. I speak the language fluently. I also feel I can teach k-12 Science classes, specifically Biology and Earth Science. I have a Master's Degree in Business and am comfortable in any area of instruction in business. I have also owned and managed several businesses and have real world experience to share as examples.
I feel I learn as much as I teach. I value every student that I have the opportunity to work with. I have learned some students just need to overcoming their dislike of a sub ... read more

Twelve years of teaching English in the Pennsylvania public school system has left me with a wealth of experience spanning all grade and ability levels. I have developed and implemented original curriculum for courses, ranging from electives to Honors English, based on my observations of students' skills and interests. I created and taught an original middle school Gifted program for one year, but returned to the high school to resume teaching English, because I missed working with the entire student population. I have experience teaching every genre of literature and writing, and have used creative approaches to make grammar applicable to students' writing.
Passionate and enthusiastic, I bring a lot of energy to teaching, and maximize lesson time to achieve the best possible student comprehension. Careful attention to the subject matter, individual learning styles, as well as ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an Arizona State graduate, I have spent many years deeply focusing on English Literature. This has expanded my knowledge on the importance of in depth reading and writing. I have tutored both high school seniors and various levels of college students in English Literature and assisted them with their writings. I also have experience with creative writing and editing, during the time I spent as an intern for an online woman's magazine, Kalliope.
I am passionate about Literature and writing and am therefore knowledgeable on the subjects. I am able to assist students in these fields, however, I do believe in the importance of guiding them in the right direction verses providing them with the answer. I like to help the already existing ideas that students posses, bloom into their own creative masterpiece, instead of continuously proving them with the standard, drone ideas.

As a United States Peace Corps Volunteer, I worked with local youth in a Fijian village over the course of two years. I created a study groups based on education level and subject matter for the young adults living in the community. I focused lessons on English reading and comprehension, effective writing skills, algebra, calculus, and basic science. Working with youth from another culture and in a foriegn language forced me to gain strong interpersonal skills, innovative ways to tutor students, and the patience to work with students to achieve their academic goals.
I worked with students from the age of eight to eighteen. Each age group provided its own set of challenges and opportunities to strengthen my experience as a tutor. I worked with children in small groups or one-on-one, based on the child's learning style. I encouraged the children to set their academic goals high ... read more

Ever since I was in the 5th grade I have known I wanted to teach. I spent my undergraduate career building a foundation of knowledge for this goal and got involved in tutoring a variety of students. I even taught a class of girls at the local juvenile prison. I earned my BA and went straight to my M.Ed, building even more on my already strong foundation. I've worked with all kinds of students at all ability levels and ages. During my time at UMCP I even worked at a childhood development center with kids from infancy up to age 12. I have very strong grammar and writing skills, as English and Writing were my major and minor in my undergraduate and have continued to be important focal points in my every day life. Both of my degrees, the experience I have gained in all of my placements, and the training I have received thus far have all joined together to continue my desire to teach.

Most difficult subjects are so because of apprehensions or stigmas one might form throughout his/her experiences. I make learning fun and can break down mental barriers one might have by relating the abstract material to concrete real-world examples.
I love teaching others and helping them excel at difficult subjects such as mathematics, chemistry and physics. With my broad background I can relate to almost any individual and find the right approach to teaching difficult subjects in a manner he/she will understand.

The essence of my teaching style is adaptation. While there are a few principles which any student can use to become a more effective learner, the implementation of these principles must be modified to meet the particular student's needs. Learning a language, writing, and standardized test-taking are much easier if one has a tutor who can show you the principles necessary for success in a manner appropriate for your learning style.
