Student of life who loves to learn and teach other.

I call myself of life because I am always open to learn new things and ideals about the world around us. I have read the bible each year since I was 16 years old and I have taught deaf adults in a church setting. I grew up in Louisville, KY and attended Male High School. I went to DeVry in Columbus, OH to study computer science. In January 89, I went to Eastern Kentucky University to study Retail Mangement.
My teaching style is to take a complex ideals and break into several smaller groups to gain a better understanding on the main ideal.

Have fun while learning!

- I am patient with the student and make sure that he/she knows and understand that I am here to help and to provide opportunities to him/her to use the available resources at his/her disposal. Example: how to use the internet efficiently. It is a powerful tool if you know how to use it. - I let the student define and explain clearly what is it that he/she does not understand. This encourages the student to organize his/her thinking process and help me (the tutor) identify problem areas. -I try to keep explanations simple, logical, clear and to the point. -I encourage students to email or call me with any questions or concerns prior to sessions.
-Worked with students in small groups of 3 to 4 to help develop their basic reading and writing skills. -Helped individual students prepare for exams like the SAT, ACT, and basic test preparation strategies. -Filled out evaluation ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children can be successful academically with the right encouragement and guidance. I believe in showing students the correct way to do the task at hand, and them coaching to explore the materials themselves. I believe that given the right tools and foundation even a academically unsuccessful student can excel.
During the pursuit of my degrees I worked tirelessly to excel. While in school I volunteered as a tutor for the local Boys and Girls Club. I tutored middle school and high school students in literature, math, science and history. Due to my degree in Library Science I have extensive knowledge in writing term papers and research methods.

A Little Bit About Me...

Believing that people learn best from what they consider most relevant to their lives, my teaching style is one which encourages learners to seek a higher level of knowledge. In addition to reading textbooks, the students must learn by doing. I encourage life long learning by promoting a sense of what it takes to successfully retrieve information when one needs it later. Basic memorization generally fails us all in time. Modifying or adapting information in a manner to help the learner reach success is crucial. Students may learn more from auditory, visual, or hands on methods. I always encourage learners to use what feels natural to them.
Continuing education is vital to the success of many engaged in the ever diversifying classroom. Many traditional aspects of education are changing as I learned from other current educators participating in my Transition to Teaching program. I ... read more

I am simply a teacher at heart. I believe it is important that the teacher really cares about the individual for learning to take place. I like to win my students with fun and games and with special one on one attention that makes them feel important and capable of succeeding. During the first meetings, I like to start them reading from children’s magazines where I let them choose the story or feature. Then, we move into my reading-strategies based style with grade appropriate award winning fiction and nonfiction.
My teaching of children began in 2004, when I taught a Sunday school class to 5-year-olds at my church. Then in 2005, I assisted with teaching the local children at a small mission church. During the 2006 through 2008 school years I subbed in mostly elementary schools, but I also subbed in some middle and high schools. Since 2007, I have been tutoring Jefferson County Pub ... read more

I have had wonderful experiences teaching students of all ages and I think one of the best ways to reach students is to teach them individually. Usually, this is a luxury that one cannot afford in a classroom. As such tutoring will allow to focus on the individual needs, learning styles, and talents of the particular student I am teaching and help them draft, short, medium and long-term goals, and work toward achieving all three.
I have three degrees in the social sciences, Psych.(BA), Public Administration (US gov't) and finally, in International Relations. I have had the opportunity to teach in all three feilds - Critical Thinking(which draws from Psychology), US History, which draws on public administration, and Comparative Gov't (which draws on IR). I research and have publications in all three fields - and am currently researching public policy in the feild of environmental st ... read more

My Masters degree in education and several years of a combination of teaching, training and tutoring with persons of various age groups and diverse backgrounds have prepared me to work well with any age group. Additionally my Masters degree in economics is of additional benefit in working with students in a wide variety of subjects. Both my graduate degrees and professional experiences have required developing solid verbal and written communication skills which greatly benefit my students.
I enjoy working with all age groups and am able to interact very effectively with students from diverse backgrounds. Although as teacher/tutor/trainer I am keen to share the knowledge I have with students, I believe in challenging my students and encouraging them to not be afraid to learn through making mistakes. I also believe students learn in various ways, some are visual learners etc… while s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a very diverse background range from English to science. My jobs require me to understand complex topics so that I can convert them into concepts that are understandable by lay audiences. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Humanities. I am finishing my Master of Science in Entomology at the University of Nebraska. My unconventional background is what fuels my desire to learn about science. I have a solid understanding of grammar as evident by the more than 300 trade letters, papers, and articles I have authored in my career. I have tutored numerous people in mathematics, biology, and science writing and journalism. That is my way of paying back all those people who taught me what I know today.
I use the scientific method of teaching. My style is Socratic. I believe, as Rene Descartes did before me, that human knowledge is innate, including our ability to learn and use language. ... read more
