I am presently working as a substitute teacher. I am certified to teach mathematics in 7th to 12th grades. I have recently passed the Praxis II tests to teach science in 7th to 12th grades. I teach almost every day and I usually teach math or science classes. Previously I worked as an engineer. During this time I mentored and trained new engineers. I became interested in teaching while I was working at Delphi Automotive. I trained my own staff while I was there. I have chosen to be a teacher because I believe I can make learning fun for my students. I like to relate subjects to each other so that students can see how everything is actually intertwined. I like to use direct instruction, cooperative learning, peer coaching, manipulatives, simulations, and technology. I believe that teachers need to use a variety of methods to facilitate learning. I believe that with my experience

I have always been driven to achieve a high level of excellence in my education and in my professional career. I have earned a BS in Business Administration with a Specialization in Risk Management and Insurance from The Ohio State University. I worked for Nationwide Insurance for a period of 13 years. I held positions ranging from Sales Support Manager to Financial Business Manager. Most recently I have earned my AAB in Accounting Technology from Ohio University while working towards my CPA requirements. I will be attending Columbus State Community College in the fall of 2010 to begin taking review classes for the CPA exam. I hope to have my CPA certification in 2011. I have children of my own and love working with all children. I am available to help your child find academic success. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am patient, easy going, and considerate.

I strive to make lessons fun and relevant to the student's personal experience. I don't believe that people remember information they find irrelevant or of no use to them, so I feel that by tailoring the lesson to the student, I can reach people more effectively. A student that learns to love learning will continue to further his or her education long after they have left me behind, and I think that love of learning is the ultimate goal. I have always felt strongly drawn to education, particularly in the field of literacy. I grew up as a child who loved to read, and I love to pass that on to others. After receiving my degree in English Literature, I became a teacher's aide at a small Montessori school in Springfield, Ohio. I taught my students reading for concepts and spelling in a small group setting, never more than four at a time. Occasionally, I gave one on one sessions, and had

As a father of three, I love to teach through example. As much as possible, I love to use practical illustrations to emphasize points and to give the child/student a better understanding of its application. I tend to learn best visually and through repetition and would incorporate that style into my teaching efforts. My goal in teaching would be patience, demanding but considerate, firm but fair. I worked my way through college, working full-time and attending classes whenever possible. I graduated from Ohio State with a degree in mathematics, majoring in the field of Actuarial Science. So, I know the value of accomplishment through perseverance and determination. As a full-time employee, I deal with statistical data and clientele daily. I have excellent communication skills both oral and written and use these skills extensively dealing with the public. I have a substitute teachi

I grew up in Germany where I graduated from a German high school. I tutored in English through out most of my high school years. During my college career I tutored in German. I was raised bilingual in both English and German. I love to learn and I love to help others learn. I am a layed back and caring person. I believe that my education gives me the type of background that helps approach problems from an anylitical standpoint. It takes the right kind of person to create a positive learning environment. I feel I am that type of person.

I have 2 Years of teaching First Aid/ CPR/ AED at the American Red Cross. I also have 1 quarter of tutoring physics at Washington State Community College. I also instruct Pet CPR/First Aid for the American Red Cross. This is especially fulfilling when watching children learn that there is something they can do to help save their injured or sick pet. Though, it has taken me many years to complete my degree, I believe this proves that persistance and perseverance pays off in the end, and that one is never too old to learn. I believe that with my excellent mathematical ability and demeanor I would prove to be an assest to helping students achieve their educational goals. I enjoy watching others learn and come to the realization that they can achieve their goals. My teaching/tutoring style is relaxed and pro-active.

My teaching style is casual and hands-on. I start with a discussion of the subject matter from a big picture perspective, to underscore the significance of the issue from an overall business management perspective. I move on to a discussion of definitions and fundamental concepts. I tend to communicate graphically, and enjoy drawing diagrams and charts. Next, I would move into an example illustrating the concept using very simple numbers. Finally, I would use actual problems or assignments from a textbook to ensure accurate application of the definitions and concepts that have been learned. I am patient with the learner. I enjoy the satisfaction of helping the learner achieve a "breakthrough" learning experience. I have worked in Accounting and Finance management roles in large corporations for over 20 years. I have supervised, directly or indirectly, groups as large as 90 indivi

I have a strong desire to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Natural Resources. This degree has helped me understand many areas of math and science. In addition, I have learned grammatical skills from writing research papers and essays for various areas of study. In the last four years I have tutored students in reading and math at the elementary and middle school level. I am currently enrolled in a program to obtain my teaching licensure in Pre Kindergarten to Third grade. Within this program I will have reading and English as a Second Language endorsement. Included in this program are courses to help my students become better at understanding math. I believe all children can learn. Every child has a different way of learning.

I am strong believer in making learning enjoyable, purposeful (i.e., objective oriented), and relevant to students. First and foremost I believe in making learning enjoyable; by instilling a genuine respect for knowledge, and a genuine passion and love for learning in those I teach - because when students enjoy learning, and or what they are doing, the education process proceeds with much greater enthusiasm, success, and in general, also flows much more smoothly. I also aim to make learning purposeful, or goal and or objective oriented. By setting obtainable learning objectives, and providing ongoing feedback and guidance students, in a structured way, I am able to assist them to recognize and to chart their progress, and to take pride in their success and accomplishments - while enabling them (and myself) to meet (and or exceed) state, curriculum, and or program / te
