Computer Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Altair, TX

Before I began my professional teaching career, I worked for the Read Across America program helping young learners gain an appreciation for reading. I mentored elementary students who were labeled at risk due to low performance in reading. In 2001, I began teaching pre-k in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In 2005, I relocated to Houston and began teaching kindergarten in Ft. Bend ISD. I taught 4th grade Math and Science for 2 years. Currently, I work as a 2nd grade ESL inclusion teacher. I have experience teaching students identified under the special education umbrella- autistic, asperger's Syndrome, and various developmental delays. I have successfully tutored students with ADD, ADHD, and other conditions that make it difficult for them to be 100% successful with classroom instruction only. Due to my background in early childhood, I teach using hands-on manipulative based strategies.

At LSU and throughout my years of teaching, I was provided with numerous opportunities to work with children in many different educational settings.  Not only have I been exposed to different grade levels but I have also taught gifted as well as special education students.  Working with these children allowed me to understand the whole child and taught me the importance of individual needs of each student in an educational setting, regardless of placement I believe that I can offer a motivational, technological, organized teacher with the goal of enriching young minds to be well educated and well rounded students. My focus will not only be on my students' educational needs but also on their self development fostering their individual growth. I am a firm believer that all children can learn when provided with the toolls necessary and an enriching environment. I pride myself in letting stu

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling. I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal oppor

My first objective is to achieve the results wanted by the students and their parents. In addition, I want to share my appreciation for the subject. It’s important to understand the students learning style and accommodate it as much as is practical. This way the student can take ownership of the learning and be successful as a self learner. A good teacher not only helps a student to master material, but also helps the student understand the process of learning, so that learning is not solely dependent on the teacher. I have an engineering degree and have worked in the Oil & Gas industry for over twenty years. My engineering degree gives me a background to tutor in areas of math and science. I’m also a lifelong learner which is important if you are going to teach others. I have been a team manager for Destination Imagination (creative problem solving) with teams from elementary to

I am a Cougars graduated and I have a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and minor in math graduating with A's in both areas. During college I tutored a lot of math courses from basic to upper level of calculus. I can speak a little Spanish and am fluent in Vietnamese I love to work with children. I had 2 of my own. I believe children can learn if you show them the direct way; as a math or chemistry tutor I use some easy techniques that children can learn and remember by; but basically just show them by examples. I believe that you have to understand the material well then explain to them the easy way to remember. With my experiences and education I can help them pass their class or move up one letter grade

I have two degrees from college: A Master's Degree in Communications and a BA in Journalism. I have been teaching now for about eight years (all levels). I love working with children and adults alike. Teaching college was very rewarding. However,for the past four years I have been a long-term substitute working a variety of subjects.It has been immensely rewarding to work with kids. I have mainly worked at elementary schools. Yet, I have a lot of exposure in working with students at the secondary level as well. I have extensive reading, writing, and grammatical skills through my degrees. In addition, I am a superb communicator both verbal and written due to, in great part, my vast association working with all ages and learning types. While I have tutored children in all areas, I prefer English, reading and writing -- as those are my main fortes. As briefly stated above, I love teaching!

I really try to find out how the student learns best as well as what the student specifically is having issues doing. I then try to target those areas of weakness using methods that appeal to how that student learns. I very much like to incorporate the use of technology to make the job easier and more engaging for the student whenever possible. I have trained adults for about 5 years in total both in a business and education setting. I have taught/tutored students for 3 years in total. My strengths truly lie in my ability to teach writing and grammar. I can teach this from the elementary to college level. I have extensive experience writing research papers and essays in my own college career. I have also taught writing to students.
