Looking for opportunities!

I have been a probation officer for 8+ years. I have worked directly with clients in a teaching/learning atmosphere. I see myself as more of a teacher than a law enforcement officer. I construct detailed case plans and work with clients specifically towards goals each week. I have built a great deal of patience in this regard. I have worked with sex offenders, mentally disordered adults, and high risk offenders.
Personal and direct. I am extremely patient.

Your mind is full of potential! I can help you unleash it!

I will ask the student how they learn a subject the best, and help them with their problem by reinforcing basic concepts and then adding on to those concepts. Also, I am a motivator; I will help the student understand that the subject is learnable and maybe even enjoyable to learn!
I have taught classes on aviation related subjects for my Civil Air Patrol. I was homeschooled all the way to the college level, and I remember a lot of subjects in great detail. I have not taught classes at a high school or college. Generally speaking, I have a vast area of knowledge and I know I can help you with your learning needs!

My comments on tutoring Government : I spent almost 15 years working for the US Government, and was a Polysci major at the University of Akron.

After graduating High School early (Jan 2001) I did two semester at the University of Akron majoring in Political Science. After the events of 9/11 I enlisted in the US Navy (Jan 2002). I was trained at the prestigious Defense Language Institute (DLI) in Monterey CA, with follow up training in Texas. I then spent the next years working as an Arabic linguist and Intelligence Analyst at a Joint Service Operation. I specialized in Iraqi and Syrian Dialects. By 2006 I was a shift NCOIC (Noncommissioned Officer in Charge, basically a supervisor). I left the service in 2008 with an honorable discharge and started working for the department of the army as a civilian but filling the same roll. After suffering some medical issues I moved back to North East Ohio in 2015.
I'm a visual learner, so my teaching style is the same, but I can adapt. I'm a big fan of the "See One, Do One, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Because I enjoy the learning environment and have been in one for 16 years, I have learned much about it. Everyone learns differently, and I feel that it is important to understand the student's easiest way to learn in order to proceed. I believe offering students the chance to use their imagination and to encourage creativity is the best approach to education. Whether it is through mental imaging or hands-on learning, each individual student deserves a chance at better education.
I am a recent college graduate and I am looking for employment within my field. I have two years experience tutoring an elementary student. I worked with a student in second grade and tutored her in both Math and English. Because her mother and I communicated regularly, she was able to tell me of improvements and areas of subjects that needed more attention. I am very enthusiastic about being able to w ... read more

I am very patient and concerned. My major objective is to identify the area that needs to be addressed. I often also use comparisons to 'real world' similarities in order to make the point. It is also necessary to understand how a person perceives, rationalizes and applies information, as every person is different in this process. The relationship that is developed between myself and the student must be on an even level, in a non-threatening environment.
Over many years as an IT person, I worked with clients, one on one, teaching them how to get their computer to do what they want it to do. Often times, the client would be very frustrated. I needed to first, relieve the frustration – then determine what needed to be done to rectify the situation (through a question and answer processes). Additionally, positive reinforcement is needed throughout the learning process to allow fo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and helping others learn something new. I love the smile in a child's eyes when they figure out what they have learned. As a type one diabetic, I constantly figure out new things and apply them to my life. I want to impact those I teach for the better, so they can share their knowledge with the world. I believe knowledge is the greatest gift.
I graduated from Mount Union College in 2006. After that, I became certified in the Berlitz method and also tutored foreigners working in the states. I also taught elementary Spanish at Woodridge. In college, I would help my friends with their studies.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a pretty flexible teacher, utilizing technology and on-line resources frequently today. Earlier in my career I did more traditional lecture with a dose of Socratic method mixed in. I believe a key is to relate the material to something the students knows and cares about.
I have taught for 30 Years. The first 9 years at Cleveland Central Catholic, mostly traditional Social Studies classes with a few honors level. Since 1989 I have been at Fairview HS, teaching At-risk and regular classes in Social Studies; Government, World History and American History.

My teaching experience started teaching in a pre-school with 4 year olds. I then taught 3rd grade for 1 year and kindergarten for 9 years. When I updated my certificate (just in the last year) I did some teaching in a mildly handicapped resource room.
I feel my style of teaching is one of being a facilitator. I choose to interact with the student by asking questions so enabling them to reach the answer through their own thinking processes. The excitement of seeing their confidence build as they realize they can figure out problems independently is the reward of being an educator. I believe my job is to guide and support the student.

After working in the Marketing/PR field for 5 years, I relocated to Puerto Rico to be with my husband. Not having a solid foundation of the language, I could not obtain a job in my previous field. It was at this time that I discovered the world of education. I began substitute teaching at the Department of Defense School and continued doing that for one year. We were then relocated to Savannah, GA and I was hired by a private school to teach 6th and 7th grade English, Literature and Social Studies. I taught at this school for 3 years and tutored each summer. We then relocated to Ohio and I have been tutoring for the past six months(including inner city students).
I thoroughly enjoyed the Marketing and Public Relations field, but I never could have imagined the fulfillment I would recieve within education. I love to challenge my students and show them just how much they can a ... read more

The methods of teaching I was instructed when I obtained my Bachelor in Education at the University of Akron Ohio, from 1989-1991, was the following Integrated, Whole language approach and Montessori. The method we were instructed to use in the Akron city school system was Integrated which uses basic and whole language approach language Arts. These integrated units allow us the opportunity to make sure children are learning relevant information and applying that knowledge to real life scenarios. Language Arts is what I use in all my teachings and lesson plans.

There is nothing more rewarding than to see a student's face, no matter their age, light up, and to hear them say, "I get it!". That is one reason why I enjoying teaching and tutoring. My job is not to just relay information, but to prepare my students. I can assist younger students by providing them with rich language experiences and much needed skills. I can prepare students to read and understand different kinds of texts, to express themselves with their words and their voices, to take different kinds of tests, and to understand and answer different kinds of questions. I am a creative, hands-on, and enthusiastic. I love to help students gain the confidence and abilities needed to have them feel good about themselves and about school.

I have a variety of experience. Most of my tutoring experience is with older students, aged 15 or older. However, I feel that I could work with younger kids as well. I love learning, and I get excited when a student fully grasps the material. I try and reinforce a teachers method of teaching. However, if repetition is not the issue, than I try and explain topics in different ways with lots of examples.I believe a tutor can really be a great supplement to the classroom teacher.

More About This Tutor...

I consider myself a very energetic, competent tutor who considers teaching an art. I enjoy working with students to help them achieve their full potential. In many situations, the main reason that students struggle in learning and grasping certain academic subjects is due to the fact that students suffer a major disconnect with the course textbook on the subject. I consider it my job to bridge the gap between what the text is trying to communicate and what the student is retaining from the text. In working to close this gap, I often create my own learning aids that a student can understand. I delight in seeing students become excited about a subject matter as their initial fear gives way to a whole new understanding of the subject.
I have tutoring experience in mathematics at the secondary and high school levels. One example of tutoring at the secondary level was when I tutor ... read more
