Preparing Today for a Successful Tomorrow

I love teaching and working with children. I tutor full time. Teaching is my passion. I can set your child on the road to success. My students see entire grade level jumps in just a few hours of tutoring. I believe all children can reach their potential if they are given the appropriate tools and learning experiences. I use manipulatives and games to help make learning fun and to reinforce concepts. I offer a relaxed and gentle approach to learning that takes the child at his own pace and gives him every chance to succeed. I tutor students in Writing through the college level. I had my first story published in a children's magazine at the age of 10 years. I still publish articles today and I'm now working on a nonfiction book that I hope to get published soon.

Blueberry House; Preparing Today for a Successful Tomorrow

I have taught for 30 years. Five years ago I began tutoring when my daughter was diagnosed with a sensory processing disorder. I feel like I can do more as a tutor than a classroom teacher. My heart lies with these kids and I want to do everything I can to help make them a success. I create an individual course of study for each child based on their learning style. I help kids understand their homework and teach them how to study so they get more out of the time they are spending in their school work. I teach reading comprehension and fluency. My students typically see a two to three year jump in grade level after just a few hours of tutoring. I tutor children with ADD, dyslexia, sensory disorders, dysgrahia, autism, aspergers, and other learning disabilities. If you want only the best than call Blueberry House.

More About This Tutor...

I am currently in the final term of my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. I have over eight years of experience working with children, including the past two in an elementary school, working with students K-5 with diverse background and ability levels. I have a passion for helping children discover new things, meet goals and reach their full potential.
I believe teaching style needs to match the individual student's needs. All children are different and have different learning styles. As a teacher, I will adapt as needed to help all students be successful.

Throughout my successful career as a teacher and school counselor, I've instructed every level from kindergarten to college level.

Earning an Elementary Education Degree from Central Washington University has prepared me to be the best teacher I can possibly be. After graduating in the middle of the school year I went straight into substitute teaching. This experience has impacted my teaching in a profound way.I was able to have extensive practice with many different elementary grade levels and different styles of learners in a relatively short amount of time. During the past year the experience I had while student teaching and while substitute teaching has given me a foundation to teach all areas of Elementary Education including reading, writing, math, social studies and science.
I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life other than teaching elementary children. I love helping children discover new concepts and seeing them accomplish things they never knew they were capable of. I am extremely patient, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a way of teaching that simplifies the subject to the student, who may not be so mathematically inclined. Got certified at Mt. Hood Community College in a tutoring method which emphasizes questioning the student in a way which brings the student to a place where they can solve the problem themselves.

A Little Bit About Me...

My learning and teaching preference is reading/writing. I adjust to students who are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. I like to use examples to drive concepts home, to make them relevant to my students' lives, and to ground these concepts in reality. Examples include, say, how geometry is used to create movie 3D special effects, or how algebra is used in sound editing in a sound studio. I also intersperse jokes and puns to help the student relax and be assured that (s)he is in a safe, secure environment for comfortable learning.
I have been tutoring subject listed on my resume for about 11 years. Currently, I tutor 1) primary grade children in language arts, 2) one adult in computer programming skills (algorithms, MS SQL Server 2008, Java), and 3) through a couple of tutoring companies. I conduct tutoring in groups, one-on-one, in-school, and in-home. My educa ... read more

I really enjoy working one on one with students, because in a one on one situation, I am really able to tailor my teaching to the individual. I try and recognize where the student is strong, and encourage those traits, while recognizing where they need growth, and doing my best to help them grow in those areas. I am a good listener so I my tutoring sessions are focused on the student, and not on my own agenda. I love seeing students realize that they have the ability to learn math!

I began working in the school setting in February, 2002. Initially I worked as a teacher's aide in the special education (K-5) classroom environment. Shortly after, I began to tutor after-school hours for one of the special needs students. The "parent network" took off and soon I was tutoring five students per week. In 2004, I returned to school for my masters/teacher credential program. Upon graduation, I worked for two years as a program director at a before-and-after school program and two years as a creative movement/dance instructor in the Vancouver School District.
My teaching style is to help make student's successful by understanding their learning style. I have had the good fortune of working with myriad learning styles in a special needs environment, (in the home and classroom) which runs from autistic spectrum disorder to talented and gifted.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an extensive experience in the field of tutoring. For the past eight years, I have work with students from age kindergarten to highschool. From one-on-one tutoring, small groups, to helping a class of more than 60 students. Therefore, I can recognize each student's ability and devised a studying plan to help them improve their weaknesses. With a Bachelor degree in Biology and Chemistry, I have a strong background in science and mathematics. Furthermore, I have taken many courses in Writing, English, and grammar.
Each student has different ways to learn. Some students require a more visual approach while ohers prefer repetion through listening and writing. I try to find the best way to help students learn and retain information. I believe that with the right help, every student has the potential to achieve academic success.

I thoroughly enjoying working with children in an educational setting, especially seeing the gleam in their eyes when they actually "get it". I believe that all children learn differently,and it is up to us as teachers and tutors to be able to recognize which style of learning works best for each child. I also believe in learning through experience and a hands-on approach to education. Lastly, I like to remember that everyone is always in a constant state of learning, including me. If I don't also take away a fresh perspective from my interaction with a student, then I have not done my job to the best of my ability. My goal is to provide an enjoyable rewarding learning experience to every child.

I have been an educator for 20+ years. My primary focus over the past 14 years has been elementary mathematics. I have extensive training in pedagogy and content for mathematics instruction. In 1996, I started on a path to become an educator of teachers who wanted to enhance their expertise in the teaching of mathematics. From 1998-2007 I was a district trainer of elementary mathematics in one of the largest school districts in the U.S. This allowed me to help my peers become effective teachers of mathematics, and it also helped me to gain invaluable expertise in understanding the very core of what it means to teach mathematics conceptually. My teaching certificate covers; elementary education PreK-8 and physical education PreK-8.
I have found that fostering various learning styles is a key to allowing diverse populations of students to flourish in whole group, small group and i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style focuses on teaching students how to find the big picture. If they understand what it is they are trying to do, then showing them how to get there becomes easier. Any student can learn math, and have the capability to understand numbers, this just comes harder for some and easier for others. In my past I have benefited greatly from some math teachers, and fallen behind in classes where I was not getting what the teacher was talking about. Tutors can be a great help in pushing students over a difficult concept or idea. Then, when the student is back on track, they can take their education in their own hands again.
During the last four years, I have spent a large amount of time working with, and around middle school and High school students. I have spent time in the classroom, worked with small groups, and spent one summer working with multiple summer camps up and do ... read more
