I have taught for years in the public school system in Kansas. I have also served our great nation in the military, and am proud to a United States veteran. I am an avid learner, and have been my entire life. That allows me to have a unique perspective on tutoring others, for I have struggled in many areas of my education, and know how to get the point across better than most.

In undergrad, I was somewhat of a perfectionist looking for a way to help others. I found that being a tutor and a supplemental instructor allowed me to help others in ways I could never imagine. I became a California Reading and Learning Certified tutor and supplemental instructor in 2008 with a program called the Center for Academic Success at the small liberal arts college I was attending and recieved students asking for help in classes including english, college writing seminars, chemistry, and math. As a result of my help, the students' grades raised from F's to A's, B's and C's over time. I loved helping them and they appreciated me helping them. Although I never actually taught a class, I was able to learn how to adapt to the individual needs of a student. Some learn visually, others with games, practice, hands on... and the list continues. I find starting out with the basics and

I received my bachelor’s degree from Oklahoma State University in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I then moved to the University of Kansas where I completed a masters in Biochemistry and Biophysics. During this time I was a graduate teaching assistant for two years. I taught science labs including biochemistry I lab (2 semesters), biochemistry II lab (1 semester), and physiology lab (2 semesters). I also assisted in teaching biochemistry lecture. My degrees show that I have a strong background in science but to be a good biochemist you have to understand many different subjects. My course work for these degrees included many biology, chemistry, and math classes (statistics, algebra, calculus). There are several different styles of teaching. I experienced hands on teaching through the lab courses that I taught. These experiences showed me how important hands on learning is to unders

Teaching is my calling. My goal is to see students see success. I believe all students can learn. It is up to us as educators. to find out which style best suites each students ability. I am empathetic to all students needs. I am very patient, easy going and considerate. My goal is to provide the student with the tools needed to succeed. I believe in the multiple intelligience teaching style and teaching through discovery. I believe that all children can and will meet their potential if they are given the appropriate experiences in learning. My calling is to assure students achieve their goals. I will make a difference in all my student's lives. As a experienced Educator with the Wichita Public School system, I have been driven to achieve a level of excellence in education. I have a degree in B.A. in American Studies and have completed all of my Secondary Education qualificatio

From past experience I have learned that everyone has a specific way of learning and therefore you must accompany to that. I believe that patience is one of the most important qualities any tutor could have. I believe once students realize that everyone needs help in life, whether it be work or school, they will succeed and completely change their view on tutors and their future education. As a student at Kansas State University, I am currently enrolled in the Architectural Engineering degree and I am completing my last math class as of now. I believe I would be a great candidate for this position because I have recently taken the three calculus classes and now differential equations. Also, i have an extensive background in different fields of physics which broadens of the everyday use of math as well.

In conclusion, I think that I can still be successful in teaching. I however, need to find what area that I can be most successful at. I think that with my non-traditional training and experience, that a similar position would give me the opportunity to be most successful. One thing that I have thought a great deal about these past few weeks, is that I am entering middle age and must be a success at something. In the past, I have found the most enjoyment and fulfillment working with special needs and incarcerated students. I hope that this time, t hat I can be more persistent, responsible, and realistic in my teaching and counseling career. Since my previous experience has been working with fairly non-traditional students, I would like to find a similar position. I have applied for several positions that have opened up in public schools and

I enjoy teaching and there is no greater reward for a tutor than to share knowledge to others and to see students grow in knowledge and confidence. I like to make learning as fun and with as little stress as possible. The environment should be conducive to learning. I try to adapt my style to the way in which the student can learn the most efficiently and most effectively. Encouragement also goes a long way to give the student confidence in their own abilities to succeed at learning. Education is a key to a high quality of life. I have earned a BS in Chemical Engineering (math, science, chemistry) and a BA in Ministry and Leadership (Bible, management, essay writing). In addition, I lack 3 hours from completing a Master's Degree in Education. My tutoring experience has primarily been with students working to earn their GED. However, I have tutored and mentored several people over

As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Kansas State, I was tasked not only with teaching mathematics in a classroom setting, but also in a more personal setting. Part of my duties included being available to briefly tutor students (ranging from basic math through Introductory Differential Equations) one on one in the Math Help Room. Let's face it; most students do not want to be in a math class. As a teacher, it is my job to present the material in a way that will make students not want to tar and feather me out of boredom while simultaneously communicating the abstract ideas as clearly as possible. However I like puns, and math is filled with wonderful pun making material (like: how to deal with radicals using our rational powers and get to the root of the problem). Consequently, I am pretty sure my students want to tar and feather me, but at least they will not do it out of boredom and t

I have held informal teaching positions throughout my entire life. I have tutored everything from pre-algebra to Calculus to Piano. I'm currently employed as an after school tutor for middle school students, 6th grade to 8th, and independently tutor on Saturdays. My style is relaxed and informal, but effective. School already provides enough structure, and with a relaxed mind, information can be processed more easily. 1 hour sessions multiple times a week is the best way for the information to sink in.

I have tutored students in many subjects from English to Mathematics. I believe in creating an enviroment for learning consisting of comprehensive understanding of theory and applications and their relationships. I also have the student learn to study themselves independently along with the importance of edcuation and positive attitude.

I have a license in Elementary Education with an endorsement in middle school math. I am currently attending WSU for a Masters in Counseling. I have been working for the Wichita Public Schools since 2006. I have tutored at the Wichita Children's Home helping over 40 students earn their high school diplomas. I love working with children and believe every child can not only learn, but enjoy learning. I like making learning fun. Some obstacles in learning are based on one's feelings about learning or about a particular subject. Sometimes asking the right questions can unblock the obstacle, leading to a better awareness of one’s abilities and knowledge. I have helped students find their inner strength and a better self awareness of what it takes for them to succeed.

I work with student(s) in such a way as to demonstrate the problem or similar problems and then break down the essential steps so as to make it intelligible to the student(s). Sometimes, while defining a problem, it is also important to look at the problem critically and identify why certain attributes are arranged in a certain order. Good visualization is also very important in Mathematics and the Sciences; therefore, I make heavy use of illustrations and the graphing calculator. It is very helpful to know how to instruct the student in the use of the calculator, (TI83/84) as this is also useful in problem-solving. I have previously taught secondary Mathematics and Science in New York. At present, I also hold secondary Math and Biology certifications in 3 states and I am eligible to hold more certifications in this area.
