I believe each student learns at his/her own pace. In a class room environment, at the college level, this creates a challenge for the instructor. I try to stress to each student the need to spend enough time outside of class reading, completing assignments and re-reviewing as needed. I encourage the students to work together outside of class. I try to engage all students during class to listen, share experiences and ask questions. When Tutoring, I am able to pace my instruction to meet the needs of the individual student. I am able to sense when a student is struggling with a concept and spend additional time until it clicks and the light goes on. I have been an adjunct professor of accounting and finance at both the graduate and undergraduate levels at IUSB, IIT - South Bend, Ivy Tech and Holy Cross College. I have taught the following classes: Managerial Accounting, Financial

I believe that the relationship between teacher and student is the foundation upon which learning experiences are built. Consistency and trust are the cornerstones of this relationship, which allow the learner to be open-minded, to explore, to ask questions, to solve problems, and to bu

I love mentoring staff / students. I find it very rewarding when the "light bulbs" start to go off with staff / students with respect to any topic. My style involves getting to know exactly where the individual is at relating to an area of study. I believe the student should be in control of the thought and learning process. I will only interject to challenge and keep the student on the right track. I believe that this style not only promotes learning but also long term retention. My accounting background has included developing accounting systems and policy and procedures for both "start-up" business and complete change required for "turn-around" organizations. My background also includes "big-four" experience as a CPA providing auditing, tax and consulting services for privately held and SEC organizations. Overall, I feel that I have a strong accounting background. My experie

I am a recent graduate of Western Michigan University with multiple degrees in accounting. I have extensive knowledge of journal entries, general ledger and the accounting cycle. For 2 years I have worked with H & R Block and have a specialty in tax. My tutoring experience was through Beta Alpha Psi and I did a semester of tutoring undergraduate accounting students. I love to help people understand the complexities of accounting and the tax code. As a tax preparer I made it my duty to help each client understand their tax situation and made sure they could take all allowable deductions and credits. My teaching style is to lead by example but then provide the student with the oppurtunity to work through the problem on their own. My goal is that the student not only understands how to solve the problem but why the methods work.

I have two children ages eight and five. We learn with each other through discovery, often turning to our dictionaries and computers for information. I think that the greatest skill for one to learn is to be able to seek information that can be synthesized into the answer that is needed. I use constructive criticism, making statements that demonstrate why an answer or line of thinking is incorrect without implying that the learner is somehow less valuable for having come to an incorrect conclusion. I think that it is very important to build a student's confidence in themselves because it is only with self-confidence that one can graduate to self-efficacy. I am an entrepreneur with four years experience at organizing and operating a non-profit organization. My organization develops affordable, democratically controlled housing in downtown Kalamazoo.

I have a BS in chemical engineering. I have 13 years of applying engineering and project management principles in the automotive plastics industry. A key to my success is influencing people by explaining "why" and "how" something should be done to develop partnerships leading to increased cooperation and advocacy. In my career in automotive plastics, I coached or taught manufacturing principles to improve quality and efficiency. My demonstrated success is due in part to my efforts to educate and coach operators, engineers and managers to understand the basic principles of chemistry, math and engineering to buy into a logical course of action. I have also greatly enjoyed my voluntary participation as a youth football coach. I have coached 8-12 year olds the last 5 years. It is very fulfilling to demonstrate and coach new skills to children to develop an organized team.
