Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Brookston, TX

I am a very diversified teacher. I like position the students where they can teach them selves more than I actually teach them. In a normal lesson setting I only see a student one hour a week, and the rest of the time they must be able to navigate solutions by themselves. I do not seek to improve a students skills, but to motivate the student to develop their own through a love of music. I am currently in the last 2 weeks of my masters degree at TAMU-Commerce. I have studied intensely under Dr. Brian Zator for the previous two years in all areas of percussion from classical, drumset, world percussion, and marching percussion. I have an extensive marching background including two seasons (2008-09) performing with the Cavaliers Drum and Bugle Corps, and a season of WGI with Rhythm X in 2010. The previous two summers I have also been on tour instructing the percussion section at the J

Student centered and dialogue. I have taught algebra, geometry, ESL, English Grammar, and Arabic language for over nine years. Most of my teachings have been one-on-one where I use standard textbooks, secondary sources, and additional materials to reinforce classroom/online learning. I provide plenty of time for Q&A session. I use various teaching methods; for the most part, this include student centered learning. I also focus on differentiation learning, where I attempt to cater to each student's learning needs.

I have learned that if people do not enjoy the experience of learning the guitar, they will have no motivation to continue and be successful. In fact, this has been my own personal experience down through the years. I focus on discovering students’ preferences and habits in order to make the lessons and learning fun in a way that will keep them picking up the instrument at home. That seems to be the main issue – getting students to spend time with the instrument IN THEIR HANDS. I have studied guitar since1972. I have taught thousands of lessons from informal setting with children to college level courses to older adults individually and in groups. I have played various stringed instruments in professional and other performing bands for most of the past 20 years. I currently teach elementary music and high school choir courses at a local public school. I use guitars and other string

I have twenty years experience teaching biology, environmental science, anatomy and physiology and other life sciences. I was working on a PhD at Louisiana State University, however I realized that I was much happier teaching than doing research and I accepted this teaching position at Southeastern. I would like to return to teaching at a community college rather than do research or teach at a large four year institution. I have always derived great satisfaction from the success of my students. I believe it is the job of the instructor to share knowledge and teach skills. The measure of instructor success is student success. I love biology. You will too. My students will become experts in their fields, but they are not there yet. It is not my style to throw them in the deep end and hope they can hear me yelling commands. It is my style to jump in and swim with them until they take o

During the attainment of my undergraduate degree, I conducted research under my professor, Dr. Greg Powell. Throughout the research, I gathered many skills one being creative in learning, as well as, presenting new material and teaching it to fellow peers and professors. I have also worked as a teacher’s assistant, running a chemistry lab of about - five students. I enjoy a very interactive learning approach. I tend to use hands on and visual learning techniques. I am patient and children are my joy to work with. It does not matter how long it takes one to learn, everyone is capable. I desire to set up a fun and disciplined learning environment for the students best success.

My Physics class had the chance to work with machinery used in vocational careers. I also taught Teacher Cadets, a class for students interested in the field of Education. During the last six-weeks students completed a student teaching experience working with K-12 teachers. My physics students competed in several engineering contests, (paper airplane, egg drop, rubber band car, etc.) which provided several students scholarships. My biology class did soil testing for the local citizens. These are a couple of examples I utilize in my classroom. I want my students to understand the material, not just memorize it. I use an assortment of activities and hands-on techniques to achieve this objective. I have a Bachelor’s Degree with a double major in Biology/Science Education and a Master’s Degree in Gifted Education. I have 9 years of experience in the High School classroom and 1 year of experi

I am passionate and thrilled at the thought of teaching a child. Some of the educators I have been blessed with have given me inspiration and have left an everlasting impression that I will never forget. This is what I hope to offer in return. I believe I can relate material in a fundamental way so that the information is easier to understand. I am a visual learner myself, so providing an optimal picture of what to grasp is an important part of the learning process, so I will do my best to paint the best picture for the students. I am a patient, fun-loving, caring person who is excited about touching lives as a tutor. While studying to obtain my two bachelor degrees, a BS in Biomedical Science and a BA in Chemistry, I have had many opportunities to develop my leadership, interpersonal, and tutoring skills. I was involved in several organizations at Texas A&M University that incorpo
