Experience Summary
While obtaining my biology degree from LeMoyne college I worked with underpriviledged children in an afterschool program. This program was aimed at keeping these children off the street while their parents were at work along with helping them improve their grades.
My duties included helping them with their homework and tutoring them in problem subjects as expressed by their teachers. This was a volunteer job that I found very rewarding.
While my experience is with elementary aged children I would love tutor subjects more specific to my degree as well.
Teaching Style
I find working with children and students to be a very rewarding area of work. I love to learn and therefore love to help others learn. I am a strong believer in that with the right encouragement and hard work all children are able to learn. I believe it is important to make education interesting for children and provide "real world" examples of how each subject is important, as often times children find subjects they are learning to be useless in their lives. I hope that through tutoring each of my students will gain a greater understanding of the importance of and education and also a greater love of learning.
