I don't just teach history I have lived history!

I believe that education is the key to success for young students. As a teacher, I hope to motivate students in ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities and discovering what truly inspires them. I aim to provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions, while fostering confidence in order for students to realize their full potential. Through my teaching experience thus far, I have found the method of facilitating rather than dictating to be a highly beneficial style of teaching. I have learned that if students construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but they will also become more confident in their abilities. Being devoted to this assertion confirms that I have made the right career choice for myself. I love working with children and will continue to strive to be a positive influence ... read more

In approaching the learning environment as a College Graduate with my MA in Criminology and Statistics, I seek to do for my students what numerous professors did for me when I was an undergraduate: Instill a passion for sociology, criminology, and statistics along with a desire to master these disciplines so as to best share it with others. Further, I offer not only academic knowledge, but experience in teaching many disciplines, such as sociology, criminology, statistics, writing, and analytical research methods.
To reach the students and motivate them to learn takes enthusiasm both for sociology and for teaching. When students see that I am passionate about the discipline and energetic and excited about teaching, this rubs off on them and is conducive to their learning. I am an active and thorough lecturer, but at the same time I seek to involve the students as much as possib ... read more

As an English teacher in Incheon, South Korea, I prepared lesson plans on a daily basis and led in the classroom to foster a creative, fun, and educational environment. I chose to go to South Korea to explore a new culture, travel, and learn a new language after finishing my BA in Political Science (International Affairs) and Global Studies, with a dual concentration in Russian Languages and Literature and Southeast Asia Area Study. I have extensively edited English as a second language essays at the TEFL level as well as worked as a native speaker for ESL dialogue tapes.
I have a lot of fun working with children of all ages. My goal is to increase your child's confidence in his or her writing abilities, as writing well is the key to academic and career success. Learning to write should be relaxing and fun, not a chore, and I am certain my love of writing will help your child l ... read more

My teaching style spans two decades, and many hundreds of students. In that time, I have learned that individual students have individual learning styles. Therefore, my teaching style would be dependent upon the student and his or her needs and current state of mind. When possible, I favor a mastery method of teaching, attempting to focus on the essential elements of learning, and then building knowledge. Other situations may require a different approach. But regardless of the approach, the tutoring will be a success only through scheduled and careful collaboration with the student and parent, and I will work to build and maintain that communication.
I have taught and served as a principal at parochial schools for 15 years, teaching every subject in every level in grades 4-8, and English in grades 9-12. In addition, I have served as an adult educator for 6 years. My particular area ... read more

As an instructor, I believe it is my responsibility to help students develop as complete, well-rounded persons. This means insuring not only that the students learn the knowledge contained in the course syllabus, but also how to think critically, to communicate effectively both orally and in writing, to make thoughtful and ethical life choices and to be a responsible citizen. My method of reaching these goals is student-centered with interactive instruction and supported with the appropriate use of technology.
I taught Constitutional Law and American Politics at Marquette University, and tax law at the University of Wisconsin Law School and at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. I have also taught at IRS and KPMG programs, as well as at numerous seminars for state and local bar associations, voluntary legal associations, and the UW-Extension. I have taken courses on elem ... read more

I believe that every teacher is also a learner and that every student is also a teacher. We have much to learn from the people we tutor and vice versa. My goal is to relate to my students on a personal level and make sure that they are actually learning and not merely memorizing my lessons. I think that it is necessary to personalize all instruction to your audience, especially when working with younger students. In this way, I know that I can effectively teach anyone who should need my help.
I have tutored as part of community service projects as well as in service-learning classes. During my class on the Latino Immigration Experience in the United States, I taught in an English as a Second Language teacher to high school freshmen and sophomores. I really enjoyed the experience of helping their teacher relate to her students by aiding in lesson planning and other aspects of ... read more

I first identify the student's strengths and weaknesses, and try to come up with a way to teach the student in a way that they will understand. I believe patience is very essential to having a successful outcome with the student.
I am well versed in math and finance, as well as writing. As a high school student, I successfully completed AP Calculus I and II, AP Physics, and AP Chemistry. I also took Calculus II for Engineers at Johns Hopkins University, as well as a variety of finance courses at Goizueta Business School. I also have excellent grammatical skills, as I am a former Editor-in-Chief of a law journal. I presently work as a law clerk, and writing for a judge is something I do every day. I'm qualified to be a Spanish tutor because I minored in Spanish at Johns Hopkins, and also studied abroad in Madrid, Spain in 2005.

During the last 2 years of my undergraduate career at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, I spent time leading moderate sized tutoring sessions. My scientific research experience is extensive as I have conducted 2 years of research in the field of neuroendocrinology. I received the James D. Anthony Award at the conclusion of my senior year for "outstanding undergraduate researcher." Two weeks after graduation, I became employed by the Medical College of Wisconsin conducting research on Juvenile Type I Diabetes. Over these past 4 years, I have tutored in all of the major concentrations of biology. I also have extensive tutoring experience in Organic Chemistry and basic mathematics.
