Prefer to work one-on-one or with small groups (up to 4 students). I have worked at Mingo Valley Christian School since 2010 in a variety of capacities: substitute teacher, teacher's aide, AIM tutor.

I am also certified to teach English as a foreign language and have completed practicums in ESL classrooms at Jenks East Elementary (Fall 2010), Tulsa Community College (Fall 2010), & La Casa de Panchita (Fall 2008).

As a tutor, I learn the student's strengths and weaknesses and them prepare them with examples of the material. I believe, that everyone learns differently. So, with this I determine the best way they need to study. I have a B.S. in Biology, from NSU. My educational experience has prepared me well, and given me many skills. I have experience in all of the life sciences, and environmental studies. English and History are my other strengths. Writing, reading, research, and testing are areas I excel. I have worked with special needs children, and as a nanny. I work well with children, and people of all ages.

As a long-time instructor in English, both in public schools and in higher education, I have encountered many students of many different backgrounds, learning styles, and ages, in the classroom and online. I have taught in many areas of English-related courses. These courses have included writing, literature, reading, public speaking, report writing, film and humanities, and other liberal arts courses. Currently, I teach at a regional University in Business Communications, tutor, and substitute teach in my community. I especially value working with students by "starting where they are" and building a learning path together to reach the goals that the student has set for himself or herself. Meeting the student's needs -- rather than achieving my goals for your student -- comes first. My passion is in learning from each student first what those needs are. Then, by listening and learni

While in high school, I discovered my love for math and began tutoring classmates in that area. My interest in writing developed during my educational career at The University of Tulsa, where I had courses in advanced exposition and argumentation and writing for the professions along with literature classes in the areas of Russian and British Literature of the 18th Century, Eastern Literature, and Greek Literature. I also took courses in Spanish, including a composition course. I currently have contracts to publish 2 manuscripts in 2011, one being a compilation of poetry and the other being a research paper dealing with depression stemming from exercise withdrawal. I feel that we all have the aptitude to learn, yet each individual discovers that aptitude in a different manner. My first and most important goal is always to convey this to the student in an effort to let them know I believe

I have taught French and German in both public and private schools from grades 1 through the college level for over 30 years. My most recent experience was in a public high school, grades 9-12, where I taught for 25 years. I have a bachelors and a masters degree in French literature with a minor in German and am National Board Certified in French. I have also taught humanities and am certified in world civilizations. Teaching has been a motivation for me for all of my working life. I have experienced the joys of my student's successes at the high school level and then on to their university courses or in their own work experiences. It is important to explain and have students experience learning from a number of different angles. Each day involves reading, speaking, listening and writing in the target language. The more senses involved, the better a student can grasp a skill.

I know the value of a tutor in a young person’s life. As a child I struggled in math, but working with a tutor I overcame my difficulties in this area and eventually went on to complete calculus level two and even become the math club president in high school. I have earned two degrees, a Masters in Business and a BS in Finance which have allowed me to gain extensive skills in math, statistical analysis, finance and writing. I’ve written many research papers and a business plan for a small company which garnered several awards. I have work experience in finance, accounting, and writing and am adept at using most of the Microsoft Office programs to complete projects. I have one year of tutoring experience. My teaching style is patient and creative. I seem to find unique ways and examples that the learner can understand to help describe how to solve problems. I’m not afraid to admit if I

As a long-time student, I understand that a large part of a student's education occurs inside and outside the classroom, much of which is beneficial in a discussion format. I currently hold two undergraduate degrees in English, with emphases in literature and grammar, and two graduate degrees in Linguistics with an emphasis in English meaning. Throughout my education, I have worked with native and non-native speakers to develop and improve written and oral English abilities, acted as a university-sponsored supplemental instructor for students struggling with coursework, tutored students privately and in classroom settings in preparation for GED testing, and taught classes on various realms of language. I have developed a style of teaching that allows students to focus on their strengths and use them to incorporate different methods to overcoming their weaknesses. I believe that learning

I have discovered that the gift of teaching is valuable in almost any career one chooses. I have found myself drawn to the role of manager, teacher, leader, trainer and facilitator in spite of the variety of jobs I have had over the last couple of years. My formal training has been in the English as a Second Language (ESL) arena with most of my actual teaching experience being with adult or college-aged, non-English-speaking individuals. I thoroughly enjoy teaching those students trying to improve their written and oral communication skills enough to be accepted into a university. I also have a great admiration for those students I teach at the community level. These are students that are not going to school because someone is telling them to or even because they are going to gain anything other than knowledge. These adults have a desire to better themselves and their quality of life, an
