Throughout my tutoring and teaching experiences, I have encountered students with disparate learning styles; therefore, I have learned to be patient and to employ multiple teaching methods (PowerPoint, peer workshops, handouts, and individual conferences) that appeal to all learning styles while inspiring, educating and promoting academic excellence. Students of all ages are influenced by the world around them, so it is absolutely imperative that I connect with my students to teach them the importance of reading and how to read the world and texts around them. I instruct my students, but I also inspire and befriend them through my articulate and energetic teaching styles that ensure my students reach the height of their academic potential. With my M.A. in English from St. Bonaventure, I have the teaching and tutoring experience needed to help students of all ages reach their full academi

I enjoy earnest and humble students, learning with and from them. I feel uncomfortable not learning laterally as well as vertically, seeing that to be knowledgeable, one must not just memorize but ruminate on what was memorized, making as many lateral connections as expedient. I like to simply direct and expand a student's learning as opposed to an artifactual accomplishment; however, my premiere obligation is punctual achievement of task. I am qualified to tutor writing, basic computer, reading, basic math, learning, biology, organic chemistry, genetics, geography, and various exams, all from college-level experiences. I had a scientific book in Barnes and Noble, ample graduate-level coursework in Education, experience as a High School teacher, and lived abroad. I have a B.S. in plant biotech from Cornell.

As a graduate of one of the top state schools in New York, I have always believed in the importance of education. I have a BA in art studio, 2 years of biology/chemistry, and Calculus I&II, which has given me a well rounded education. I have also developed a higher level of writing skills through my research papers and laboratory write-ups. My latin classes have given me a better understanding of vocabulary and the derivatives of different languages from latin. The past year I have been studying chemical and physical aspects of my visual arts. I find ways to be diverse in the way I learn. Teaching and working with children not only educates them but it educates myself in the process. I get to touch up on materials that the children are learning, as well as learn better ways to educate students. Patience is what I believe is the most important aspect of teaching. Children can become unfoc

Since I am fairly fresh to the market, I have learned many of the newer teaching strategies that benefit a wide array of students. My masters degree is in Inclusion which has taught me to reach students of both extremes of the spectrum. I am able to mold my lessons to fit students with accelerated abilities and students who may need a better focus or basic understanding. I believe in the hands on approach and that students need to be able to see what they are learning. I am a determined, patient, caring individual and I work hard to reach my students. I completed my masters degree in an accelerated program. This required more credit hours in a shorter time, while working in the field of study. I have worked in many different schools and settings where the abilities range from gifted education to special education. I have conducted case studies, learning profiles, behavior plans, a

Even as a student i helped my fellow students to understand and grasp the subjects they were having difficulty with. i can generaly spinn the information into a subject matter that interests the individual or just explain it in an easier to understand manner, offted they just get lolst in the language of teaching. i minnored in math, and majorred in science and agriculture in high school, ansd took veternary technology in colledge this involved mostly biologies and lab technigues. i have never taught professionaly, but have assisted fellow students. the methods i useed to help them were ither to incorporate the subject matter into a sumject that they had a personal interest in, or manny time i found that they just didnot understand the language of the subject so i reexplained it in simpler terms and they got it just fine.

I have 10 years of experience as a substitute teacher in all areas of elementary education as well as high school classes. I have 2 years experience as an in home tutor for a student with physical disabilities. I have 2 years experience as an itinerate teacher for an environmental education program and a gifted/talented program. I love working with children and I believe all children have the capacity to learn. Teachers need to recognize and learn the correct methods to instruct individual students using their strengths to overcome their weaknesses. I employ various teaching styles based on the student, the subject area, and the goals desired.I am patient, understanding of outside circumstances, and strive to ease the student into the process so they do not become overwhelmed. I keep the learning environment fun but structured so that the student has the best environment in which to

My philosophy of teaching is based on three beliefs: the goal of teaching is to maximize student learning; learning is maximized in an environment that is supportive of the students; students are expected to actively participate in the learning process by being responsible and holding themselves accountable. When taking into consideration that individual students with different learning styles and different personalities are being taught, it is essential for me to use a variety of learning techniques to ensure that learning is maximized in each and every individual. As a teacher, I believe it’s essential to combine my professional relationship with students with a friendly and supportive attitude. Student involvement requires students to be active learners. It is my responsibility, when students demonstrate active participation in the learning process, to provide them with positive r

I believe that different teaching styles help different students. A method of both lecture and active learning can be effective for the widest range of students. This allows the students to get a brief introduction to the day’s material before they work in groups on questions about the material. I feel that student’s can learn best from each other because they are all at the same level. If a group is unsure of an answer they can always ask the teacher or look it up in a book. Finally, active learning demands that the students find the answers instead of being told them. This will benefit them greatly once they join the work force. During my past three years at St. John Fisher College I have been actively engaged in the chemistry department. I have been exposed to various teaching types, one being active learning within a group. This has allowed me to develop teaching skills by ex

I have a love of learning and teaching others. I believe everyone has their own unique abilities and learning styles. I strive to utilize strategies of instruction which focus on multiple learning styles. I also believe a mastery of basic concepts is necessary before more challenging material can be learned. I will work to provide your learner with instruction that will enable them to master concepts and move forward with confidence. I hold a BS from St. Bonaventure University in Elementary Education, and a Master’s Degree in Integrating Technology into the Classroom from Walden University. I graduated 7th of 645 from St. Bonaventure, where I focused on teaching with hands-on activities and technology infused lessons.

For as long as I can remember, I have been a natural teacher. My children say that I can never take them on an outing without making a "school" trip out of it. I love learning, and desire to share that excitement with others, to see them become life-long learners. I believe that all children can learn, although in different ways. Individualized learning and small group learning is what I enjoy most. I'm patient and work well with children. I'm good at seeing where a student's need is, and then adapting the teaching level and style to match so that he/she can achieve, and be encouraged to move forward. I desire to see students reach their potential, and I believe that that potential is often greater than is evident at first glance. My years of teaching have been greatly varied—traditional/ non-traditional, in the States /overseas, regular/special needs students, children/adults, and wit
