A Little Bit About Me...

I provide opportunities for students to engage in hands-on activities that are interesting and meaningful to them and that promote critical thinking skills. I assign reading material that directly supports these activities so my students can read with a purpose. Learning takes effort; it can be challenging and frustrating, but is also very rewarding. I encourage students and provide assistance when needed to help them learn challenging concepts without getting frustrated. I try to accommodate individual learning preferences by providing students with choices for independent or group activities.
After twenty years working in the environmental, health and safety field, I was motivated to change careers and become a science teacher. As a "second career" teacher, I earned a Master of Education degree at the University of Toledo and am licensed to teach Integrated Science (i.e., Ea ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that no two students learn alike and the most important thing is to make sure students are having fun with learning. If learning is looked at as boring or hard students will try to avoid it, when learning is fun students learn without realising the work involved. I am willing to try a new tactic with every new task and am always learning myself. As someone new to the education field I am always researching new ideas in the education field.
The 2009-2010 school year will be my third year as a substitute teacher. I have worked with all levels of students, from special needs elementary to AP high school courses, and in both urban and suburban districts. I had some training as an educator in college but have lots of real world experience as well. I have a deep understanding of research strategies and love all of the social sciences. I also am a parent to a third grader ... read more

During my undergraduate at Marquette University, I worked as a teaching assistant for General Anatomy and Advanced Anatomy. I not only taught the students, but tutored them privately as well. I was also a tutor for physiology at Marquette. Both of these experiences have strengthened my ability to relay knowledge to another person, as well as solidify my science knowledge. I now work at Owens community college teaching Anatomy and Physiology. I have extensive basic and advanced science knowledge and truly enjoy teaching.
As stated above, I truly enjoy teaching; this applies to adults as well as children. Not only am I patient and easy to work with, I also am passionate about making learning fun and painless. I enjoy learning as much as I enjoy teaching; therefore, I attempt to surround my students with a relaxed and fun teaching environment while still getting all the information to ... read more

I see myself as a guide and a "project manager" for my students' learning, providing the support, advice, and tools that they need to achieve success. I believe that inquiry-based learning facilitates better retention and the development of a love of education that lasts a lifetime. Every student learns differently, but I believe everyone can learn and succeed. I am patient, considerate, friendly and helpful, and I am happy to adjust my teaching style to my students' needs and goals.

As an elementary teacher for 10 years, I am a versatile, flexible individual with the talent to develop lessons for every child's learning style and ability.

More About This Tutor...

I thoroughly love teaching as I come from a line of teachers myself. I have demonstrated that learning happens on multiple levels depending on what level one is working on. In my experience, I have learned that understanding is a process which involves listening, question and answer, humility, multiple approaches (including mixed media, visual and audio stimulus, humor, etc.), and a general openness to learn. Patience is key, and to learn is not just to memorize--it is to understand. Through the learning of the knowledge of relationships and the inter-working of things is understanding of subject material attained. We are all children, and as children we strive to break the barriers that close our minds. A good teacher knows how to ferret out these barriers that prevent our learning and open the doors to discovery and thought. It is with this knowledge that every student I have ta ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Each individual has a unique approach to critical thinking, and using that approach is the best way for that person to learn. I make every attempt to identify a person's perspective so as to shape my teaching for that person in the best possible way. Whether someone is visual-, aural-, logical-, or otherwise-oriented makes a significant difference in the way that person will respond to new information. Above all, I remain positive in my approach, because I realize that every success requires an amount of trial and error behind it, and that nobody is born into their skills though everybody has talent.
As a foster parent, I tutored our first child as he progressed through kindergarten and the first grade. His previous school experience was lacking at best, and he had little confidence in his scholastic ability. I was able to pinpoint his natural aptitude--mathematics--and use it ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I received a BS degree in chemistry and a minor in applied biology. My original thought was to attend medical school (I even took the MCAT), but decided to persue a PhD in inorganic chemistry instead. I have extensive experience in working with students. I worked as an organic chemistry lab assistant as an undergraduate. During graudate school, I taught both general and analytical chemistry. I am currently teaching chemistry classes at Terra State Community College.
I believe that anyone can understand the subject matter if it is presnted to them in a way that fits their unique learning style. I can demonstrate several ways to learn the same material, and have learned through my years of teaching experience how to quickly identify which method is best understood by an individual. I am patient and understanding, and I relate well to students. I have always received excellent ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring students in mathematics for 2-3 years. I’ve tutored high school and college students in math. I have earned a degree in Criminal Justice, but always hold a passion for math. I have learned extensive skills from my degree like how to help others, which I apply to tutoring students. I help students by figuring out what they have a problem understanding and simplify it; which makes it easier and more helpful to them as they further their education. I love math and have completed up to the calculus level, but mostly tutor students in the lower levels of math. I have been driven to achieve a high level of excellence in my education and held a 4.0 in all my math classes and all through college.
I love helping others with math. Everyone can do math, they just need the right person to teach them because everyone learns differently. I am a patient and understanding tuto ... read more
