I am open to helping any student, old or young, gain more knowledge. I am very open to teaching anybody who is willing to give the effort to learn the material. I am a very patient, outgoing, and reliable individual. I am a believer in finding anyway to help a student learn the material. Sometimes it takes a different approach with every student. Every student does not learn the same way. Having a person there to help each child learn can go a long way in their future education. I am willing to do whatever it takes to help somebodys future.
In college I excelled in my education by helping other students learn the material from class that they did not understand. I have earned one bachelor degree in Biomedical Science. This education has helped me gain tremendous skills in math, biology, chemistry, and reading. I have wrote many laboratory reports, research papers, and english paper ... read more

I am a former professional astronomer with experience working for NASA and the Department of the Navy. I have earned graduate and undergraduate degrees in astronomy and physics from the University of Minnesota. With these I have a firm understanding of many areas of math, science and technical writing. I also have a solid background in computer programming resulting from my three years of experience as a web programmer.

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy working with kids of all a ages and skill levels! My passion is working with kids who are special education, or those who need more one on one time. Math was always a struggle for me so I enjoy working with kids who need extra support with math/algebra. I believe each child learns in their own way and it's extremely important to find their learning style and build from it. Each child has the ability to learn we just have to see things through their eyes in order to educate them!
I currently work with special education students at a local school. I also work at an after school program to ensure educational activites during the after school hours. I Earned a double major from BHSU in 2008 for Sociology and Human Services with an empahsis in probation and Law enforcement.

I am capable of adapting to the learning skills of the individual students with whom I affiliate. I substitute taught for nearly 3 years before I enrolled as a graduate student.

More About This Tutor...

I worked as a tutor for the Computer Science department at New Mexico State University. I helped students learn and understand the concepts of the first computer class (CS101) and enjoyed it quite a bit! I have a degree in Journalism and Spanish. I have experience writing for English and Spanish media, particularly for TV and radio. Teaching was my second career choice and sometimes I regret not taking that path. Not only could I tutor those areas, but also Math because I like the challenge of finding only one answer to problems. I enjoy working with people a lot!
I have never been a teacher, but I can speak from a student's perspective. A good teacher is the one that identifies the needs of a student. Challenging the mind is very important, but also showing respect, patience and serious willingness to help. Practice is essential for a student to learn. From my personal experience ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Prior to changing my undergraduate major to Geography, I was an elementary education major. I have always enjoyed working with students; however, at the time I wanted to try something different and is how I ended up working as a Park Ranger for the National Park Service (NPS). My experiences with NPS have allowed me to teach in an informal setting, by educating the public about their national parks. I also have the opportunity to present curriculum based education programs in grades K-5 about different aspects in NPS. My experiences have also pushed me to start a Masters of Science degree in Biology to further my knowledge. While I was an undergraduate, I was also a teaching assistant for physical geography labs.
I have always loved teaching, whether its adults or children. Everyone has their own learning style and teachers need to be able to adapt teaching methods to help all ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is pertinent to my learners. I believe all people have the ability to learn what is needed to help them.I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. It is my desire as a educator to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites a sharing of ideas. There are three elements that I believe are conducive to establishing such an environment: the teacher acting as a guide, allowing the learner natural curiosity to direct his/her learning, and promoting respect for all things and all people.
As a Bachelor of Science graduate, I have given my purpose to help students attain knowledge and experience in the areas: all education college courses, hel ... read more

As a recent college graduate and now a graduate student, I have always had a passion of working with children.

Now starting my graduate career I am gaining a better understanding of Math and Engineering Sciences. I am a driven person that thinks all children can achieve anything they put their mind to.
I love working and teaching children. I believe that all children can achieve what they set their minds to. All children have different learning styles and I am here to find which learning style best suites each child and work individual ... read more
