I am experienced in Human Anatomy and Physiology Patience is extremely important in my teaching style; however, I also believe reaching goals and exceeding expectations is necessary for the success of students. I set minor achievements in prioritized lists for my students to complete in order to achieve their goals. I have experience tutoring age 8-12 reading, science, and math for a child with a learning disability. After spending summers being tutored by me, the child I worked with made the honor roll. I also participated in peer tutoring throughout high school. Additionally, I was a Teaching Assistant for Medical Parasitology at John Carroll University, where I prepared materials for class and tutored my peers.

For a period of five years, I offered tutoring services to students at the University of Chapel Hill, Duke University, and North Carolina State University. My ability comes from experience...I was not entirely prepared for college when I started, and had to work much harder to successfully complete my degrees. I believe that this has given me a great insight into what students really need, especially as schools continue to do a less than perfect job of preparing students for the future. The goal of my approach is to enable students to have a level of ownership in learning concepts and ideas. Merely teaching the idea is not enough, and that "Oh, I see" moment must occur to embed the idea for long-term growth. I enjoy relating the ideas and facts to real world examples that almost anyone can grasp.

My teaching style draws from my ability to illustrate and lay out concepts in a systematic way. Step by step learning and instruction is crucial accompanied with dedication and passion. I am committed to teaching and mentoring students until they can fully comprehend their subject matter. My age allows me to be able to understand contemporary problems in schooling as well as being able to recognize new ways in which students are being taught and tested. The majority of my strengths emphasize research and writing in a broad number of disciplines including the humanities (art, english, history, etc.). Furthermore, I have an extensive background in quantitative statistics. I am currently in the final stages of writing a research paper to receive my Masters degree in Sociology from DePaul University in Chicago. My liberal arts degree has afforded me a wide range of experience in education a

I am a professional with a B.S. degree and with 18 years experience in the health science field. I also have extensive experience in various areas of business. In addition, I am proficient in many different computer programs, which has allowed me to train and mentor people in use of various computer software. In the past year I have direct experience leading classes and teaching students. I am comfortable writing reports and essays and have excellent knowledge of English and grammar. I greatly enjoy teaching and working with students, from children to adults. I am patient and understanding and believe in positive reinforcement to motivate students. My goal is to get to know and understand each student and tailor an individual education plan based on each student's learning style.

Throughout my high school career I have been devoted to academic success of my fellow classmates as well as my self. I continued this attitude in the accomplishment of achieving a BS degree in biology. Along the way of my academic success I have acquired multiple skills in every subject that has added to my love of learning and discovering. Over a fifteen year period I have used the knowledge that I have obtained to aid in others in their own pursuit of academic achievement. I take the necessary time to learn the behavior and learning ability of the child in order to customize a teaching style that will be most beneficial. I believe that the most effective type of relationship between a teacher and a student is friendship to reduce any anxieties that may otherwise hinder the child’s progress. I am calm, well mannered, kind and devoted to the success of others. Teachers should be firm but

I have taught 4 and 5th grade in the Texas School Systems for 24 years. I worked as a retired teacher in the Adams Wells Special Services Coop for 3 years (2006-2009)as a teacher's aide with special needs students both in the elementary and high school levels. Those children varied from autistic, cerebal palsy, Attention Deficit Disorders with and without Hyperactivity. I really enjoyed working with these students to help them with their reading, math, and overall achievement. I am currently employed as a substitute teacher with the North Adams Community Schools on K-12 Levels. I also worked with the district in a specially funded program for a homework and tutoring afterschool program on 4th and Kindergarten levels. I believe that all children are unique and gifted in some way. I truly prefer to work with them one-on-one. Each child learns in a manner that is a challege to meet and

I am currently a student at Wright State University; I will have a Bachelor’s degree in biology at the end of summer 2010. I have taken several classes in Cell biology, Molecular biology, Animal biology and Plant biology. I have also had a year of anatomy and a year of physics. The research papers, lab reports, analytical reports and essays that I have written have given me a comprehensive vocabulary and considerable grammatical skills. In the past two years I have assisted in my church’s youth ministry as a Sunday school teacher. I have also more recently been tutoring at an inner city school in Dayton with kindergarteners and fourth graders in math and language. I love teaching and sharing my love of science with others. Children learn in many different ways; some through reading, some through diagrams, and some through repetition. I enjoy trying to figure out how each child lea

During college, I changed my major several times, taking numerous classes for each one to determine what I wanted to do with my life. I experimented with Political Science for two years, in which I took classes in criminology, speech, and history. My next year of college was spent in English and Writing, where I focused on the obvious, as well as classes in psychology. The last few years of my college experience, where I ended up graduating with a Bachelor’s in Finance, were based around all of the science and math classes that Ohio Dominican University had to offer. I have also worked in multiple management positions where I was responsible for interviewing and training countless employees. My teaching style is one of friendly leadership. Working through problems or lessons with the student by leading them through it, then working it with them side by side while explaining the deta

While working with an adult native Spanish speaker to improve her English was certainly rewarding, my desire has always been to work with children or adolescents, as I feel that they are more amenable to an educational program and have a greater learning capacity when given the proper opportunities. My teaching style is one of constant progression, in which the student's strengths and weaknesses are weighed and an appropriate lesson plan formed based on his/her abilities. This lesson plan can be subject to change based upon rapid progression or extended difficulties in a subject, and I also take into account each student’s distinct learning style. Education should be a process in which a pupil is made to not only regurgitate facts but also to become motivated through active learning and discovery. I am a patient but firm instructor who would love to further adolescents along their educat

In my 6 years of teaching experience I’ve come to find out that there is no such thing as a “stupid question.” Each child or adult has a specific way of learning according to their own character. That’s the reason some are faster to learn mathematical concepts while others are faster in literary concepts. I believe in going slow and asking my students to explain what they’ve learned in their own words. If they can do this easily it means they have mastered the concepts. I usually encourage pre-reading before tutoring sessions. A student who has read the chapter ahead will absorb information more easily than one who has not read ahead. I obtained a high honors degree (Magna Cum Laude) in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry in 2005. Due to an outstanding GPA (3.74/4.00), I began to teach even as an undergraduate student. I was hired by the Athletics Department to help my fellow students obt

I believe that all students have the right to a quality education and deserve opportunities to reach their maximum academic potential before graduating high school. While some students may reach their potential in a school environment alone, other students need extra support to meet their individual needs. Throughout my teaching and tutoring experiences I have made it a priority to customize learning plans in order to fit the individual needs of students. As a tutor, I look forward to working one-on-one with a student to encourage the student, build upon their knowledge level and academic skills, and to heighten his/her confidence as a learner. During the past four years, I have tutored students in all subjects. During my collegiate years at Bucknell University, I majored in Biology and minored in Education and Philosophy. I also spent a few hours a week tutoring students of all grade

Throughout my undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois, I developed a passion for teaching and helping others achieve the academic success that I enjoyed. I tutored during each of my final three years, mostly in the various science classes that I took. During the past year, I have been teaching the Physics section of the MCAT for the Princeton Review, a nationwide test prep company. I have also tutored for a couple different companies, ranging from Geometry and Algebra to Organic Chemistry. I have always felt that tutoring should offer a much more laid-back approach at getting concepts across to students. This is a chance to learn material in an environment that doesn't bear the pressures and stresses of the classroom and achieving a certain grade. Also as opposed to a classroom, I feel that the student should have the floor. This is their time to ask questions and talk

My most recent experiences have shown me that encouragement is central is assisting the students in their learning. Providing them with the confidence in their own comprehension and understanding is key to striking the fires of a passion for life-long learning. To aid the student in grasping the material, I look for new methods of explanation and teaching. Someone recently described me as an "educator" - a high compliment that caused me to realize that I strive to provide the tools for a student to learn beyond my instruction. This is the manner in which I work with any learner - aid them to discover and expand for life. I am fervently earnest in pursuing a career assisting students in their learning. With experience working at the elementary through high school levels, I have a diverse background with much to offer. Throughout my years of experience, I have had the opportunity to
