More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and enjoy working with people of all ages. I am available to teach the following subjects: math, science, ancient history, paleontology, archaeology, writing, mythology, reading music, musical instruments/basic beginner classes (guitar, violin, mandolin, banjo, dulcimer), Visual arts (drawing, painting, sculpture, graphic arts, fashion design), gardening, herbs, horseback riding, and more. I am a firm believer in teaching by allowing the student to be more interactive - more hands on. I find that students learn more quickly if they can be physically involved in the process, and that they retain more information this way. I look forward to working with you!

A Little Bit About Me...

The key to being a good teacher is being patient. I believe children learn best in a positive and stress-free environment. When a child does good on the work then I praise them and if they make a mistake then I explain to them the error in the homework. When I was a small child, I remember my teacher being patient and helping me along the way. I feel that although children learn in different ways and different paces that being patient with children is a universal and effective teaching style.
I am currently a Senior at Western Kentucky University majoring in Creative Advertising with a minor in Computer Information Systems. I have several years experience in tutoring children and I am a strong believer in education. I am currently a Child Program Facilitator at the Boys & Girls Club where I read to children and help with their homework. I also have volunteer expereince as a Arts a ... read more

As an Art School graduate, learned the tools to teach students to develop into successful artists through the fundamental elements of art necessary for professional portfolios. The knowledge has lead to my success at VSA arts of Kentucky over the past 4.5 years. At VSAKY we strive creating a society where people with and without disabilities can learn through, participate in and enjoy the arts I have gained experience in teaching professional growth in an inclusive society. As an independent contract at VSAKY I have had the opportunity to collaborate with and teach students many aspects of art in order for them to grow professionally through many areas of art such as: sculpture, painting, drawing, graphic design and composition.
I am very enthusiastic about making the learning process fun and enjoyable for all students. I feel that creating a comfortable environment for the studen ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My life has been changed by art. As a child I took art lessons and learned that creativity is much more than making art. Creativity is a way to train your mind to think outside the box. Creativity can be applied to communicating and problem solving in many areas. I come from a family of educators. As a member of the Art Alliance I mentored fellow students on their work and helped them create a cohesive body of work and their artistic voice. I applied this knowledge in instructing the Model United Nations course. Although not directly art related, teaching the same critical thinking skills involved with debate helped me strengthen my skills in teaching and understanding education.
I hold a Bachelors degree in fine arts with a Painting emphasis and a double minor in Sculpture and Political Science. Both were received from Middle Tennessee State University. I was a senior member of t ... read more

I have also taught classes of adults in a public mental health program. In addition to that, I have provided private drum set lessons for several years.

I have enjoyed working with students who have all been at different levels in their education. I have found that every student learns differently and as a tutor in order to help them succeed you have to be able to quickly adapt your technique to fit that child. I have learned patience is key, it may take trying a few methods before finding one that benefits the student the most. I do believe though that most people learn best through experience, just discovering the world around them and through trial and error
I am a college graduate, and have studied both stateside and abroad. This has given me the opportunity to work with colleagues from all over the world and given me a greater perspective on education. I have earned my Bachelor of Arts degree and am currently working towards my Masters. Because of my masters work I am proficient at writing in a formal research style. During my ... read more

I have always enjoyed working with children and have spend the past 13 years working with them in various settings. I have found that every child learns in their own special way and it is my job to work with the child, figure out what teaching approach works best, and help the child be able to adapt that approach to every subject on their own. I believe integrating subjects allows students to see all areas of the material being taught. It is my goal to help students understand how they learn best, how they can use tools to help themselves understand what is being taught, and ultimately gain confidence in themselves.
As a recent graduate earning my M.Ed., I have learned different techniques for teaching to different learning styles. After receiving my BFA in studio art, it became my mission to help others not only learn how to create, but to believe in themselves as well. I als ... read more
