This would depend on the child's learning style and I would assess the situation from their. I am still currently in High School but I have a flexible schedule since I go to Online School. I am eager to help children learn and need money as I make my way through High School. I enjoy working with kids and helping them through school because I experienced those exact same problems through school without help.

Student teaching at Rocky Mountain High School, in Meridian, Idaho. Taught English to sophomores and seniors. I have taught as an observer in middle schools and junior high schools; South in Boise, Idaho, Rober Stuart Junior High in Twin Falls, Idaho, and at Pathways Middle School in Meridian, Idaho. I tutored at South Junior High in the Avid program and in a ESL tutoring room in the same school. I differentiate my teaching to try and match the current abilities and learning styles of the students. I want to know what the student knows, and then begin to teach them something new. I will demonstrate, guide the student through a few examples and let them do it on their own.

I've completed high school and been accepted into college, so I obviously have what's needed for the lower levels of education, such as elementary students, and I maintained a GPA of 3.5 throughout my high school career, so there is a good change I'll at least be able to get the resources needed for your student to excel in the subject of study they struggle in. I'm very good with younger children, I've worked with them extensively for several years. I prefer to try to be more hands-on in my approach to teaching, especially with younger children. I do know that their attention span isn't as long as that of older people, so I try to keep them engaged through short and interactive sessions.

Although I wish I could count the endless amount of time I spent playing teacher as a child, I know parents are looking for more expierence than an eight year old and her dolls. I have tutored children, ages ranging from eight to fourteen, off and on for three years. I have expierence and am personally more comfortable helping with English and math centered tutoring for any grade level but am able to help with other elementary level classes.I've had the privilege to help with the passionate and the difficult and have been able to produce satisfactory results for all parties involved. My teaching style differs with each child. One child does well learning by applying the material to real live situations Another does better with breaking it down and just memorizing facts I am very flexible and make an effort to find the best method to save both myself and the child time that would other

I just finished my first year at CWI and am currently taking English 102 - took predominately English, editing, computer, marketing, and math classes. I also home schooled my children for ten years, was a teacher's assistant for six years in elementary schools, and taught first grade in a small private school last year. Learning should be fun, yet focused. I also use the Socratic Method which asks questions instead of answers in order to invoke student thinking.

I started as an Adjunct Instructor at ISU for the Geomatics Engineering program for the 2007-2008 school year. Prepare for class setup the curriculum, homework, grading and test for 10-12 students. I went to ITT Technical Institute following that and was offered to Chair School of Drafting & Design. I taught and ran the department for 2 years. I was in charge of 4-10 teachers and 170+ students. I believe in identifying the learning style of the student which can take some time with some. Are they a visual learner I draw pictures, maps, charts and video; if an audio learner tapes, lecture, youtube, video, etc,.. and if a kinesthetic learner then they need the hands on experience to develop the learning that is needed, so then standing back to guide the thought process without doing it for them.

I love to teach. In order to be an effective teacher, I believe you have to be willing to adapt and change very quickly. This may also mean you have to spend extra time with students who are struggling or be proactive when you notice there is a problem instead of waiting for them to come to you. I also believe that if a student cannot remember what they have recently learned, then there is little importance to what was taught. Often I provide short activities that will help students remember and build upon previous lessons. Each child has the ability to succeed. Learning should be fun and engaging and provide students the opportunity to share and teach others what they have learned. I am highly motivated to continue the process of education. Currently I am working on a masters in health science in health promotion. At the same time, I am obtaining a minor in Spanish. With a bach

I once had a Chemistry professor whose encouragement and unique enjoyment of Chemistry inspired and allowed me to understand Chemistry like I never had before. When tutoring I strive to emulate this professor. Tutoring is wonderful because you get to know how an individual learns best and can help them accordingly. Allowing the student the opportunity to analyze a problem and determine their own strategy is very important. I am there to provide the students with guidance and suggestions that will help direct them to the correct answer and allow them to figure out their own problem solving methods. I am also there to provide the student with structured, specific guidance and to help them learn and understand the materials any way I can. I have earned an AA in Liberal arts, AS in Allied Health, and a BS in Biology which have enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math, chemis

I was a "Master Tutor" of Mathematics and Physics at BSU during my undergraduate studies, qualified to tutor all levels of Mathematics from arithmetic thru vector calculus, differential equations and linear algebra as well as serving as the only official Physics tutor employed thru the university - all of which constituted 20+ hours of drop-in-center tutoring per week. Additionally I provided independent tutoring to students from middle school thru college on a weekly basis as well as proctoring Physics laboratory classes and serving in a substitute role when needed for college level Physics courses. I have a strong and calm approach to tutoring that has been consistently admonished as being effective and respectful, guiding students to a stronger understanding of methodology and fundamentals underlying a subject rather than simply providing a method to “make the grade.” I take a calm an

I enjoy tutoring children one on one. Many children have difficulties in school because of low confidence levels, which are reinforced in the classroom by very little individual attention. I believe the more comfortable a child feels in her/his learning environment, the easier she/he will learn. As a tutor, I try to ease academic pressure by developing a relaxed, supportive relationship with the student. I emphasize the positive, stronger aspects of their work, and attempt to highlight instances in which the child teaches me. In this way the child confidently confronts learning obstacles without fear of criticism. It is amazing how quickly children advance when they have an exceptional relationship with their teacher. I love to see children discover the breadth of their own potential. While earning a BA in English at Reed College, I gained valuable experience in researching and writing e

As I was tutoring fellow students in high school, I realized I wanted to teach. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Special Education. I chose, then, to go into the business of training and consulting rather than work for the Public School System. I have fifteen years experience in needs analysis and consulting, twelve years experience in personal computer training, eight years experience designing curricula and training materials, four years experience in computer sales management, two years experience as substitute teacher, and very recent experience preparing a child with learning disabilities to re-enter the regular classroom using the Davis Learning Strategies System. I am well versed in many subjects, including math, science, reading, writing, French, music, and computer applications; I have a lifelong penchant for learning and passion for teaching what I learn.
