In my experience, I do not teach but simply assist people who need it. In college I helped my friends by explaining how to correct their writing, and offering advice. I am patient and willing to help as best as I can without being condescending towards students.
My experience is more hands-on and personal, I suppose. I love history and write constantly, in addition to having a great interest in photography and television. I majored in American Studies which focused on history and culture in the US, and minored in Creative Writing and Digital Arts. It is a dream of mine to help others learn, as I think college and knowledge is an incredible and necessary aspect that people need.

My comments on tutoring Chess : I have played as a hobby for many years.

I am very easy going and move at the pace of the subject!. What's most important is to ensure that the information has been relayed properly to the student...and said student has retained the information successfully.
I have been in business for myself since 2008 as a Freelance Photographer/Designer. I Love what I do and I intend it to show. I also wish to share what I know and pass on any knowledge that might help another to grow and succeed. Photography (20plus years) Graphic Design (13 years) Advertising & Marketing (6 + years) Layout (11+ years) Quality Control (6+ years) Management (11+ years) Department Development (7 years)

I am fascinated with the concept that the more senses you utilize in teaching the better the child learns and retains what was taught. Some children respond to verbal teaching, while others prefer visual teaching, or others like to interact with their environment (the hands on approach). Each child has their own language. I believe that a teacher must do whatever is necessary to reach the student so that he can learn. Learning should be fun and enjoyable! I love seeing a child understand a new concept; it is like learning all over again. Today, few students and for that matter parents enjoy mathematics. Mathematics would best be taught by those who love it so they can pass their love of the subject onto their students.
Although I have a well-rounded education, most of my knowledge and work experience is in mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus plus the r ... read more

There is not one teaching style that works for everyone. Making the subjects fun and exciting is a great way to get the students engaged. Everyone has different ways of learning and finding that niche will enable that student to be confident when it comes to learning anything. A student's outlook dictates how they relate to a certain subject. Breaking the mindset that it is too difficult or overwhelming are all mental. Breaking through those barriers will enable students to excell. I will help to facilitate those tools to overcome those obstacles.
As a young college graduate, I am still in the mind set of studying. My main focus is in administration and training for health systems. Out of my many classes and interests in education I excelled at undergraduate seminars which is taking a block of time and teaching a specific subject to my peers. My bachelor's degree has strong focus o ... read more

It truly does take a village to raise a child as the saying goes. I have been able to make many positive differences in many childrens lives by tutoring, volulnteering and working with them. I am able to teach in a variety of ways, which as most people know, everyone learns differently. Some people are visual learners, meaning they learn better through the written word. While others are auditory (listening) or kinesthetic (learn by doing). I believe that I can provide the best education possible by teaching in a variety of ways while making it fun.
I have a MA in Psychology from Concordia University. My BS in Human Development & Family Studies with a minor in Psychology is from Penn State University. I am currently taking Medical Coding and Billing classes on-line. I have over 15 years experience working with children in all settings (mental health, teaching, tutoring, volunte ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have developed a style all my own. I lead my students by letting them find answers for themselves. I also believe that students will achieve higher test scores with my techniques. I have found that teaching HOW to take tests is as important as subject matter. I bring a great deal of experienc to this program. I taught in quite a few different learning environments. I taught rural children. I taught in the "inner city". I taught privileged and underpriveleged children. I have coached high school baseball as well as Red Cross Water Safety Programs. I also bring with me a broad variety of non-educational experience.
My teaching style is one of discovery. Often I will talk about one thing and students will latch onto something in the discussion and steer the lesson in another direction. What they don't realise is that is exactly what I wanted them to do. Now we ar ... read more

During the completion of my Bachelor's degree in Psychology I had the opportunity to work with the Maricopa College District, as well as the No Child Left Behind Program. While working with the Maricopa College District I assisted students that were enrolled in the ACE Adult Program. These students ranged in ages from 18 to 65 years old. Additionally, I worked with Martin Porres Educational Services and the No Child Left Behind Program. During my years of tutoring I have assisted students in Psychology, Statistics, math courses up to Calculus, basic science classes, reading, English, computer courses, and nursing courses (relating to mathematics).
Not only do I love to teach and help students learn, I also enjoy helping students develop an appreciation for learning in general. The most gratifying experience while teaching is the look on a student's face, after hours of confusion, a ... read more

Having been involved in academics most of my life, I am very familiar with the rigors and challenges facing most students today. I earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Biology and BS in Chemistry, which provided me with solid understanding in the field of science. Later, I continued medical school, graduating in 2009. I have been involved in many learning modalities, lecturing on various subjects which include biology, chemistry, anatomy, and mathematics. Also, I possess a strong proficiency in English grammar and phonics, having written many research papers. I am fortunate to have tutored many students over the years as a teaching assistant and substitute teacher, and I truly enjoy helping bridge gaps through education.
Every student is different, and in turn, learning is never constant, but rather, dynamic. My goal is to implement any teaching style or method that will faci ... read more

My teaching philosophy is to be kind, considerate, and respectful to each student and caregiver I encounter. I aim to teach students with respect by listening to their needs, giving them time to express their feelings, and allowing positive and creative time to practice what they are learning. I believe my role is to help them develop skills to not only master the subject which I am teaching (tutoring) but to develop tools they can utilize throughout their education. I encourage my students with positive reinforcement, and believe that students respond better to teachers and tutors whom they respect and have developed a relationship with. My goal is to make their education appropriate, exciting, and empowering. I also believe that learning is a “team” effort which requires work from the student, teacher, and supportive family. If applicable, I aim to show respect to caregivers by a ... read more

I believe that any student can learn given the right environment, the appropriate tools, and a patient and caring teacher. I enjoy working with students of every age, from struggling college students to young children having difficulties with basic Math and English. There is nothing more satisfying for me as a teacher than to open the window of understanding for the students I work with, and to see the light of comprehension come into his or her eyes with every “ah-ha!” moment. I believe that successful learning is a two way process that encompasses not only what I am able to teach my students, but what I can learn from them as well to help me become a better teacher.
In 1976 I left the blue-collar world and returned to college, strongly motivated to learn. In 1980 I acquired a BA in Geography (3.81 gpa in my major, 3.53 overall), with a minor degree in Environmental Geology (3.6 g ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I really enjoy working with kids and helping them succeed. I am a firm believer that every child has the potential to be a great student. My teaching style is very interactive. I believe you learn more if you are involved in the process. Being the oldest of five children has given me the skills to be a great tutor. I am patient, a good listener and most of all laid back and fun.
In 2001 I graduated from Coastal Carolina University with two bachelor degrees, BS in Marine Science and BS in Environmental Science. Both of these degrees required extensive studies in both math and science. While in college I tutored fellow students in science, math and English. I also was a teacher/tutor for two home schooled students in the 2005-2006 school year.

When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me until he/she is comfortable with me. Once they feel that I care, they open up and the learning really begins! When I really get a feel for the personality and whatever particular challenges are unique for this person in this class, I am able to determine the best way to communicate the subject and improve the skills. I like to think outside the box to find the best way for that student to have that "got it" moment!
Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked ... read more

Throughout my college career I have taught piano lessons to all ages and tutored both Italian and German through the university tutoring program. I started studying Italian as an undergraduate student at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music and have continued for the past 7 years here and in Italy. I have family in northern Italy with whom I have stayed, and we communicate exclusively in Italian. In addition to the teaching experience listed above, I also taught undergraduate music theory for two years in Cincinnati. I have an extensive knowledge of grammar in Italian and can teach practical conversational Italian as well.
I have a dual approach to teaching languages, including both structured lessons on grammar and also practice learning idiomatic phrases. I think it's important to approach foreign language practically, so that people can learn basic communic ... read more
