More About This Tutor...

I began tutoring privately,as well as,for my school's learning center during the early 1990's. I have continued tutoring privately on and off for the past twenty years. I was a substitute teacher in California and Michigan during the 2000's. I also had my own high school level classroom in California for two school years. I was hired on an "Emergency Credential" because I had my BS but no teaching credential. I was laid off due to budget cuts in June of 2003. I also taught "at-risk" elementary age children during the summer for the Glendora Unifed School District in Glendora, CA. I tutored privately for three years from 2005-2008 in south Los Angeles County and north Orange County, CA. I can provide recommendations from these clients if you are interested. My youngest students were in first grade with my oldest students attending college.

More About This Tutor...

I have recently graduated from Lawrence Technological University with a BA in graphic design, although all of my work experience has been with children. I started this experience in high school, as a teacher aide to a third grade class, creating lesson plans and working one-on-one. I have tutored in a professional tutoring center and privately for over 7 years working with children of all ages. The subjects I tutor include pre-calculus, advanced algebra, geometry, chemistry, biology, reading and English which I taught to kindergarten through college-level students. In the past year I have started substitute teaching at a private school for gifted children. I have gained valuable experience from this position, learning new teaching styles gaining a new perspective in my approach to teaching.
I have been tutoring for many years and enjoy the experience. While working at a tutor ... read more

More About This Tutor...

One of the most important things in teaching science is to make it relevant. I have seen that teaching students why something is relevant to them makes it come to life and makes it easier for them to learn. During my time as a supplemental instructor I learned to utilize a variety of sources and review techniques that maximize the potential of students to learn. I recognize that students all have different learning styles and I know that it is extremely important to adapt to the individual student. The best thing any teacher can do is to be flexible and I pride myself on my flexibility and ability to interact in a productive manner with students and people from different backgrounds and at different levels.
I first gained tutoring experience as a member of my high school's National Honor Society where I tutored math and science for middle school students. When I entered colleg ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

All students can learn, but they have different learning styles. Identifying a student's strengths and weaknesses is a key step in the learning process. Whatever their particular style is, students learn best in a positive learning environment which ideally will include the following elements: positive reinforcement, a regular study plan, parental support, and a quiet environment. I have found that another key is to give the student some degree of ownership over what they learn by turning more of the responsibility for framing questions and summarizing what they have learned over to them. One way to make this work is to activate their prior learning. We learn much more of what we do than what we hear. I have a passion for learning and am not ashamed to say that I am still learning. This passion for learning can be contagious.
I have taught physical science and life science ... read more

As a student at the University of Detroit Mercy, I worked as a tutor for two years. I helped other students struggling in mathematics and biology classes. Also, my senior year in college I worked as a Teaching Assistant for a Microbiolgy lab. In addition, I did student teaching for a Catholic Middle School.
Many people have different teaching skills and techniques. I do not believe any technique to educate a child is better than any other technique. Each child learns differently. Understanding the fact that children learn differently is crucial. The teacher must be able to adapt to the child's learning style. I believe I have the ability to use an array of teaching styles to help children. I would enjoy the opportunity to help children learn.

I have been a successful science educator for a long time. I still enjoy it immensely. Early in my career I developed a teaching style that respects what the student brings to the learning experience. I attempt to facilitate information so that together with their previous knowledge the student can synthesize new concepts with deeper understanding for the basic principles of science. Understanding advanced topics can, at times, be rather frustrating. My goal is to establish a learning environment where your child will thrive academically.
I have been a successful science educator for a long time. I am proud of what I have been able to accomplish over the years. I have been recognized locally, statewide and nationally for my teaching skills. I have received the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science and Math Teaching (1994), Biology Teacher of the Year Award (1997) as well as ... read more

I have privately tutored students that recently arrived from Japan in English with a focus on conversation to enable them to quickly feel comfortable in a new country. As they attained conversation skills I changed my focus to education based teaching with a focus on understanding the classroom teacher and being able to participate in the classroom discussion. I have a degree in English but I have completed through Calculus 2 and have taken Physics and Chemistry courses so I spread the focus of the lessons through different disciplines with the goal of facilitating classroom learning.
I build a relationship of trust with the students and offer positive reinforcement and use humor to engage all of them. My initial goal is to engage the students then move on to teaching with the final goal being the understanding of the subject in a way that is deeper then just memorization. I want t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of Macomb Mathematics Science Technology Center (MMSTC). This is a magnet program reserved for the top 72 high school students(per grade level)in Macomb County. Throughout high school I tutored my friend and neighbor, Mike, who suffers from a learning disability. I received a B.S. in Fishery and Wildlife Management (ecology, biology, and general management) from Michigan State University in 2006. I worked two years in recycling after college. I have recently worked with the big rivers biologist for the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. I feel that the opportunity to tutor biology, physics, and/or mathematics students would be a great way for me to share my knowledge, experiences, and abilities.
I find that the most important aspect of teaching is to consider the student's perspective. It wasn't that long ago that I was a student myself, and I found the mos ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from Central Michigan with a BS in Business, I decided to go back to school to become a science teacher. I will be certified to teach grades 7-12 in Biology and in Chemistry. I am currently finishing up my last 3 classes before I begin student teaching. In the fall I will teach classes at Eastern Michigan to prospecting elementary teachers. I have also taught several lessons at the middle school and high school level and have tutored students one-on-one.
Science is not the easiest of concepts to grasp so in order to enhance student learning I input a bit of humor into my lesson. I am very good at creating analogies to scientific processes and I have seen positive results from this. My goal is to create student understanding without the typical "memorize and recall" method which I feel is a burden on education and does not promote student learning. I love teach ... read more

I value certain aspects of teaching methodology not necessarily emphasized in previous generations. I view teaching as a highly dynamic process. In regards to my own views of teaching, I think learning must be interesting and fun. A teacher will not only be a guide on the path to a better understanding of difficult concepts, he will also be a motivator to stimulate open minds. Finally, I believe that knowledge is a right for all. As a teacher, I will be on the front line accomplishing what I feel society needs most: a more educated workforce and students more prepared for their professional careers
At the present time I am working at the University of Michigan as a Research Lab Specialist Lead. Beside research this position enables me to interact with students and teach them the biologic basic skills. I am challenged to be creative, nurturing and most of all, patient. During ... read more

Teaching children has been part of my life for many years, on many levels. I am currently a full time substitute teacher for Ann Arbor Public Schools. My past experience includes teaching Pre-K, preschool, directing educational camp programming, as well as substitute teaching for various grade levels. My education and experience has made working with children enjoyable and meaningful.
I have a high regard for the brilliance of children. It is my experience that some children need assistance in recognizing their gifts. I have had a chance to see many intellects blossom and self esteems thrive. Using techniques learned from various levels of education classes teamed with experience, I am able to connect and allow learning to happen. I find great satisfaction in helping enhance the quality of education in the lives of children.
