A Little Bit About Me...

Ever since I was in 1st grade I have wanted to be a teacher. I am currently going to Brigham Young University- Idaho to get my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood/Special Education. I have worked in day care centers, preschools, and interned in elementary schools. I love working with children and hope to open my own preschool some day.

More About This Tutor...

I am a freshman at BYUI, studying to become a Physician's Assistant, and minoring in English. I love English, music, and history! I specialize in English mostly, as I took many AP and Honors English classes in high school. I also scored a 30 on my english ACT and a 28 on my reading ACT! I can teach music as well, for I have been playing piano for about 10 years. I also play guitar and can teach beginners, and have been in many choirs so I can help tutor in Music Composition, voice lessons, etc. I also love American History, from any century!

A Little Bit About Me...

After completing my education at Brigham Young University-Idaho in the spring of 2003, I was hired to work as an aid at the school where I had done my student teaching. During this year, I worked with students in reading and math lab classes which were designed to help students who were struggling to achieve proficient scores on their ISAT's. I then was hired as a teacher and taught for the next two years in the subjects of reading lab, literature, and language arts. I worked with 6th through 8th grade students, and enjoyed each age and the challenges that come with that time in a student's life. I also have children of my own, which has taught me much more about working with children and helping them to learn.
I have found that every student has the potential to learn and improve upon their situation if given the right opportunities, surroundings, and support. I love the "lig ... read more

I have extensive experience in teaching writing at every level. My degrees in EngIish, Education and National Board Certification show I am committed to excellence for myself and my students.
I teach with encouragement, enthusiasm and high expectations. When I am excited about the learning, the student is too. I prepare. I am ready with excellent examples and fun, pertinent activities. It gives me tremendous joy to see students learn whether it be a concept or a skill. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked for ten years as a certified surgical technologist. Two years ago I took a position at Eastern Idaho Technical College as a part-time instructor for their surgical technology program. I will graduate this spring with a BA in general studies. I have taken a variety of college classes over the past several years, and this has enabled me to understand a variety of subjects. Many of the courses that I have taken involved writing numerous papers and essays, which I have always excelled at. Besides English, I have taken advanced chemistry classes, as well as biology and and anatomy and physiology courses.
I have always loved being able to teach and instruct in areas that I am very familiar with. Working the past two years at Eastern Idaho Technical College with the students has enhanced this skill. I am able to identify with how people learn and absorb new information. Then ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Throughout college I had extensive experience working with classmates while we solved math equations and physics problems together. I did volunteer work teaching English to children in Mexico as well as teaching English to college age students in Mexico.
I like to first get an idea of what the student knows about the problem.. I find that the more time I spend listening to what they know it naturally turns into what pieces I need to add-in. Unless they came to the session to learn new material that would be a different scenario entirely in which it would depend on the student how I taught. I would have to find out what type of a learner they are. Whether it be a visual learner, if they need examples or are an entirely conceptual type of learner.

I spent 2 years in mexico teaching in spanish. During some of that time i was the teacher for english classes. I graduate this december with my bachelors in physics, experience of working with classmates and helping other students as they helped me gave me years of experience working as a team on homework assignments.
I have found through my teaching that there is a motto that works very well in most situations. "Teach in such a way that it is impossible to not understand" basically if one can teach a complex subject in such a way that even a child can understand it then you are successful as a teacher. But with physics that is not always possible. It is all about the person learning not for me to hear myself talk and get through a lesson. All that matters in the end is what the student learned coming out of the the instruction.

I believe in life long learning. I majored in botany and have a minor in both Spanish and chemistry. I hold a masters degree in Biology with an emphasis on plant health. I am currently writing my dissertation for my PhD program in Adult Education. I have over 20 years experience in plant health research and have taught several different subjects to all age groups. I am currently an Extension Educator.
I love teaching and believe that the teacher is part of the learning process on many levels. Each individual has a unique learning style, and it is up to both the student and teacher to recognize the different styles of learning that will produce the best results. I strongly believe that the responsibility of the teacher is to teach and help the student succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to teach and see the light go on in a child's head as he or she begins to understand. It is a great joy to see them succeed. I am creative, compassionate, and caring, and will do everything I can to find the "missing pieces" for struggling students. Often, students have been rushed through the basic manipulative/hands-on discovery phase of learning, and have had to memorize rules in order to move on instead of truly understanding. I begin by observing the student, take them back step by step to where their struggles began, and start there. I believe that using hands-on/manipulatives, if needed, can then build a firm foundation for solid, concrete understanding and success in learning a new concept. My experience at Motorola brings the "why" to learning, as the student and I discuss why they need to learn something.
Having always pursued excellence in eduation, I gra ... read more

I love teaching and working with young children of all backgrounds. These beautiful young people have such interest in everything about them and a natural drive to experience all they can in the process of developing themselves. I find they have much direction of their own with a little help of an idea, or a touch, or a taste, or a feeling. I love to allow them moments of exploration with some structured direction to a specific end,they seem to find naturally. My belief is to give them some tools and a field and let them explore while answering their questions through enterprising research and exploration along the way.
It was a drive within my nature or inner self to pursue a course in Child Development and Family Relations and a minor in Psychology as I attended college at Ricks College and Brigham Young University. My direction following those events led me to teach as an ass ... read more

I have had approximately one year of combined teaching experience. I have taught junior high and high school age kids. I have done student teaching as well as taught my own art class. I have also taught several years of adult religious classes.
I believe that all kids have the potential to be incredible learners. I believe that in order to tap into that children and adults need to find their self-confidence. I try to help those I teach to realize their own success through achievement and building their confidence levels. My goals are to create an atmosphere of learning through understanding the needs of my students and then helping them to figure out how to accomplish their own goals.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students who are elementary aged up through college aged. I particularly love working with middle school students. I am sensitive to student's individual needs and realize that everyone learns at their own pace and in their own way. When I tutor in mathematics, I try to help students develop conceptual understanding, not just procedural knowledge. I believe that all students are capable of understanding mathematics and am able to provide different methods of instruction based on the student's needs. With my background in literacy, I also try to help students see mathematics as a language, or as another way to express ideas. This involves instruction in vocabulary and how to read mathematics notation.
I have taught middle school students reading, English, and mathematics for 10 years. I earned my bachelor's in Elementary Education from Utah State with an em ... read more

I have a love for children and for learning. I believe in being patient and encouraging children to learn. I have learned in my dealings with children that they respond better when they feel that I have a genuine interest in them. I have worked with children with Autism. They are a special challenge, but have helped me to develop more patience and understanding. As a mother I have an appreciation of gentle firmness and consistency and have a desire to help children succeed. I believe in helping children find methods of problem solving that work for them.
I recently earned my bachelor's degree in Chemistry. I was in advanced math classes and have studied up through Calculus, testing out of an Algebra II class. I excell at spelling, and earned a ribbon in a spelling bee in elementary. I was also in AP and Honors English classes and wrote a paper that impressed my college tea ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I had a son with some special needs. I had to help him with his math throughout most of his junior high and high school years. From time to time, other students in my neighborhood have asked for assistance with their school studies. Assisting them when needed is something I have done several times over the years.
I am a kid at heart. I understand and relate to children of all ages. I believe that if you are patient with those that are trying to learn, and can find things that they relate to, teaching becomes easier for everyone involved. I have found success in the past with helping youth, and am confident that I can earn their trust enough to assist them in their studies.
