Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style. Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back.

My teaching style is to be supportive and of course helpful; but most importantly, a great listener. children will improve of they are be listened to, not always being taught to. I worked at a girls scout camp as a counselor. I taught these girls many things about life and about the importance of learning and improving yourself. I have been a counselor at an elementary school and helped in the classroom. Also, I have have been a babysitter for years and helped children with school work, piano, dancing, and much more.

As an undergraduate student at BYU-Idaho, I was involved in many tutoring experiences. I tutored for basic computer classes and beginning accounting classes. Since graduating, I have received 6+ years of addition work experiences in the accounting and computer fields to solidify my education attained in school. I excellent in grammar, reading, critical analysis, paper writing, advanced accounting, taxes, and basic computer skills. I love teaching to helps others succeed. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to help students understand the material, not just do the work because that's what I said they should do. I'm a hands-on teacher. I strive to teach the way the student learns best.

I am a very versatile tutor who believes in adjusting my own teaching style to fit the particular learning style of my students. I am extremely patient, kind, and creative. My goal is to make learning relevant and relatable, because those qualities ensure that a subject is memorable and understandable. I believe that all students can succeed as long as they are shown how to use their inherent strengths and turn their supposed weaknesses to their best advantage. For six years I have enjoyed a "love affair" with teaching. Beginning with two years as an elementary school tutor, I was able to gain experience in teaching all subjects, and specialized in reading for students with learning disabilities. Once I began graduate school I began tutoring undergraduate students in a variety of subjects within the colleges of humanities and social and behavioral science. I also worked as a teach

I started teaching chess at an elementary school in 2002, and continued there until 2006. While there I gained an appreciation for the power and joy of working with youth. I graduated in 2007 with a BS in Mathematics Education, and I have been teaching in the classroom for the last two years. While in college I began tutoring mathematics, and I have now been tutoring for the last six years - I have enjoyed every moment of it! I believe all students can learn mathematics. I see it to be my responsibility as a teacher to accommodate individual learning needs and to continue trying new approaches until the student has understood the material. I will adapt my teaching style to the needs of the student - they after all are the one being served, not the other way around!

In college I had the opportunity to work as a peer tutor and also as a tutor for high school students through the Upward Bound program. I did this via face to face as well as through phone tutoring. Upon graduating I was lucky enough to get a full time job with the Upward Bound program and continued to tutor as well as train tutors. Seven years ago I had the opportunity to enter the teaching arena and have enjoyed a wide array of subjects. A teacher should treat their students as consumers. As consumers those students need to have their needs and expectations met. Every student learns differently and expects the instructor to be the expert in the subject matter. Being that expert the instructor should have and show a passion for the subject that makes the students want to know more. Each student is a valuable member of the class and as such has valuable experience and opinions that can e

I have previously been a tutor for private individuals while I was making my way through college, and also as a professional duty while I was employed by the Salt Lake City Public Library, where I worked for six years. I have not been a tutor for a few years, although I currently volunteer with the International Rescue Committee in Salt Lake by assisting program workers teach english speaking and reading skills to new refugee immigrant women. I love teaching, but to students about 12 and older. I am able to relate and connect well with them, and let them learn and take pride in their progress. Especially with younger kids, a high degree of focus on my part can be necessary to keep them on task, but I find that one can be firm with them and not need to be patronizing or forceful.

I spent the last two years in Warsaw, Poland teaching English as a Foreign Language. My duties included planning and preparing daily lesson plans as well as semester course programs, traveling to different locations to teach school-aged children or adults in different environments, keeping records of material covered, preparing and administering exams at the end of each term, and completing reports about students at the end of the year. I have experience teaching children (ages 5 to about 15) and adults. The children I worked with ranged in ability from beginners (at most a few words of English) to upper-intermediate (teenagers with a fairly high level of understanding and communication). As to my education, I have a total of five years of college education, two at Highline and three at WSU. In that time I took a variety of classes, including creative writing, philosophy, psychology

During my education experience at Northern Arizona University, I learned early on that I have a passion for education and for teaching. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree and graduated Summa Cum Laude at the top of my class. Through observing and student teaching experiences I learned techniques for teaching students science, English, math, reading, art and music. I also gained valuable grammatical skills through writing various research papers and essays during my studies. I absolutely 100% believe that ALL children can learn! I believe that it is the teacher's responsibility to provide a healthy learning environment, one in which the student feels safe, secure, accepted and valued. I believe in self-fulfilling prophecies. If a child is encouraged to learn and knows that they can - they will. I feel very privileged to have had an opportunity to have created these types of sit

My rigorous education has given me substantial insight into the "total package" needed to learn and succeed at a high level. The ability to learn material is critical, and I excel at teaching difficult concepts and skills to a range of different learning "types". However, the ability to organize, prioritize, and focus is equally critical to academic success, and my experience with a wide range of subjects from art and literature to science, social sciences, and business as well as a range of different personalities allows me to teach virtually any subject with a sympathetic understanding of how each individual's personality learns best. Some people learn well step-by-step, others learn better through self-experimentation. My familiarity with a range of learning styles allows me to find the best way to teach each individual. I was in the top 10% of my class at an elite college prepara

I understand the different learning styles and how to appropriately apply them. I enjoy teaching young people and am passionate about their way of discovery into their educational goals and outcomes. I realize that some students become frustrated or distracted; however, I believe once they understand how they learn and how to stay focused, they often achive well above expectations. As a Clemson graduate, I understand the importance of education. I have written many technical reports and research papers relevant to both of my degrees and my professional career. I have actively tutored High School students on a volunteer basis in my communities. I often filled in as a substitute teacher in the residential setting for at risk youth. I have tutored and taught, English, Social Studies, Math, and Science. I have worked with children and adults that have been mentally and/or physically challeng

As a student at UofU and BYU I tutored and was tutored myself. While attending BYU I worked in the student advisement center part-time, mentoring and helping students develop their schedules, and tutored them in subject matter from courses I'd already completed. I served as a volunteer representative for the LDS church for two years in Denmark and Iceland. I speak fluent Danish and Norwegian, and I taught extensively on many topics to all age groups while over there. I've tutored other students, friends, and family in math and math-related fields(up to calculus III level math). I excelled at Math and English composition in school. At my current job I train new team members in restaurant operations as well as handle restaurant finances. I currently work as a manager for Romano's Macaroni Grill in Provo, Murray, and Salt Lake.

With a Master's degree in counseling, I have had various experience working with youth on a clinical level. Before going into counseling I was on track to become a high school math teacher. I have taken courses up through Calculus III and Number Theory. I feel very capable in this area. I also am an avid and good creative and technical writer. I have tutored students from elementary to college level in mathematics, English, writing, basic sciences, and other various humanities subjects. I've never met a "stupid" student. I see all people as capable, as long as they are willing. I find it easy to get a student interested in a subject when they have usually been bored in class. I easily create metaphors and practical examples for application of the subject at hand so the student can personalize their studies. Once a student sees how the subject "fits" in their life, their interest level of
