I work as a civil engineer and geophysicist. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Physics and BS in International Business which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. During my college years I was an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant serving as assistant to a class in physics courses; I have also tutored adults and teenagers in physics, mathematics, and sciences in private classes. My style of teaching consists of two parts: first, to understand and visualize the concept and the problem; and second, doing the mechanics of problem solving. I prefer to work with the basic equations rather than memorizing the variations of the formula. I work with examples.

After completing my studies of Economics I taught Statistics, Business, National Economics, and social sciences as an adjunct professor in Berlin colleges: Freie Universität Berlin and Fachhochschule für Wirtschaft Berlin. For four years I was employed in a private company as an Import-Export Manager. The last 26 years I taught Economics, Business, Math, German, Social Studies, Computing, and most of the time English as a foreign language in OSZ Handel Berlin, a comprehensive college for subjects related to trade and commerce. Teaching for me is a form of life. The students I taught were 16 to 20 years old, and adults. My aim has always been to help my students to become professional, independent and self-conscious persons supporting tolerance and democratic society. Furthermore I aim to teach students organizational skills and methods to learn. Methods of teaching vary according to the

I tutored a 10 year boy in all subjects for about 2 years Monday through Friday which was a fantastic experience; he is now at Baylor University in Texas. I substituted 5th and 6th grade and tutored one-on-one students whom required additional assistance. I recently tutored the FCAT curriculum to students ages 8-15 as well as foreign students and a child with ADHD. The positive feedback from the parents and students has made this position enjoyable. I first assess the child's knowledge (test them) and their study routine. Following, I create an individualized plan of study for him/her. What material does the child enjoy? How would he/she like to study? My goal is to create a fun learning environment therefore the child retains the information and wants to continue to learn. Games, pneumonic, songs, dice, cards, etc. are a part of my teaching style.

As a Ph.D. level student in Sociology (ABD) with all exams passed, I have 2 years of successful formal teaching experience at the college level. In research papers I have demonstrated excellent grammar and writing skills. My linguistic training includes 5 years of Latin all of which makes me a very language conscious person. I have tutored students in German, English, French, Sociology/Anthropology. Furthermore I have extensive exposure to Korean, Thai, and Japanese. My multilingual training has sensitized me to inference-related problems of students from particular cultures. I feel equally comfortable teaching in group or one-on-one situations. I am patient, flexible, enthusiastic and friendly. I put the student first; the syllabus second. I do not want to lose the student and will backtrack to consolidate the fundamentals. I strive to avoid talking down to the student but rather enco

I have spent the past 25 years in the field of direct-sales and sales-management. The nature of my products required a "consultative" selling style with an emphasis on teaching my clients. I had sales agents in various countries who had to be trained in the technical details of our equipment as well as their operation. Our agents were non-native English speakers so I am accustomed to working with individuals from many different backgrounds and cultures. I have been a lay-preacher for 15 years and have taught Bible study classes. I also taught public speaking. In 2009 I graduated from ITTT with a TESOL Diploma and would love to leave the corporate world and utilise my teaching skills to help people enrich and improve their lives. Having spent the first 15 years of my sales career working with and teaching non-native English speakers I realise that listening skills, patience and empathy ar

Students learn differently, as a teacher it's my responsibility to learn how each student learns and teach accordingly. I have found students who are active in learning are more productive than those who aren't engaged. I like to involve students in the learning process. I am creative and capable of applying situational learning to ensure students comprehend the concepts being taught. I have been active in all aspects of education over 20 years. I enjoy working with students and seeing them succeed in what they desire. I have worked with elementary through high school age students preparing them for their next transition. I have taught Language Arts/English skills to kids in elementary through high school. I have tutored kids in English and Learning Strategies. I have worked with ESOL and ESE students--and feel comfortable with them.

As a teacher I strive for fair but firm. I have certain expectations for my students and I try to the best of my abilities to help them succeed. I firmly believe in the idea that no two children learn alike and therefore I use multiple teaching strategies when implementing lesson plans with my students. I have a good sense of humor. I have found it to help tremendously when de-escalating serious and unsafe situations that may arise. I believe my students have also seen my sincerity in their education and therefore try harder than they might if they felt I did not care. I have my degree in business. After ten years, I wanted a career that would make a difference for others, not just myself. As a father of two, I have coached kids and taught Sunday School for many years and love working with children. I went back to school to obtain my teaching degree and certification. I taught middle sch

This involves awareness of learning styles, which vary from student to student. My teaching style is also very patient and cognizant of each learner's struggles and obstacles.
