My comments on tutoring Writing : I am a highly experienced and well-rounded writer.

I have worked as a teacher in many capacities. I was a Dance Instructor at various studios, and I taught Communication Studies as a Graduate Instructional Assistant at Texas State University in San Marcos. I have more than 10 years of professional experience in a variety of occupations from tutoring, mentoring and supervising to doing extensive research, grading papers and tests, and preparing lesson plans. I have held numerous positions in the theater, media and communications field as well.
I believe it is important that people learn at their own pace, and I like to give students the tools and guidance to figure out things on their own.

Recently Retired Teacher with 31 Years of Experience

My passion is to teach, although retired, I will, always be a teacher, and that is why I want to teach. Due to the experiences I have had, I have become very proficient in my field. I will tutor or teach, by developing an individual learning plan, which begins with informal assessment, establishing, tangible learning goals, and targets implementation, and then, concludes with a final assessment to make sure benchmarks were reached. The parent and students will be assisting the tutor with designing and implementing the course of action to be taken. My philosophy is that success is based on hard work and commitment. I will help your child with homework and projects, and will give some informal practice on various skills to complete in between sessions. Regular study sessions are important to obtain success. Parent will receive, either, a verbal or written report at the end of each session, ... read more

Being that I have graduated from both Concordia College and Ivy Tech Community, I have found that I am well prepared in providing services to young children. I have taught Head Start children for several years. I received many accolades for my work with children from supervisors, co-workers, and parents as well. I also tutored children in reading in their homes and other public places. I received much recognition from my parents there as well for helping their children to achieve higher reading scores and better self esteem.
I truly enjoy working with children! It gives me great worth and value in enriching the lives of the children I come in contact with. Building the self esteem in children, and developing rapport with my students has proven to give me an upper hand in achieving growth in the academic areas I tutor. I firmly believe in meeting the child where they are at and grow ... read more

Teaching children and adults is my life's work. I believe not only can all children learn but I believe all children can excel, if given the motivation and inspiration. I also believe that if children learn to love learning, they will excel in all that they strive to achieve. I believe in making learning relevant and interesting. I am adaptable in my style and approach in education. Due to the fact that our children are all unique, I believe their educators should develop, within their own styles, an approach that is unique for each of their students. I hold high expectations for each of my students but all of my expectations are attainable for the student and I help them to achieve those expectations in excellence.
I have always worked well with children because I enjoy their capacity to learn. I am drawn to students who feel they are incapable of excelling in subject areas ... read more

I have taken education classes at Northern Kentucky University. At one point, I was considering on being a Art Teacher. I didn't finish with that path, but I did gain much experience with children and knowledge during that time in working with students. I have worked and studied special needs children as well. I still consider going back for a Master's at some point in education. I think this job would be beneficial in my goals, and for my students, and a great learning experience for us both.
I am not overbearing. I am laid back, but at the same time, I make sure that the student learns what he/she needs to learn. I am very patient. I try to respect the student and not make learning seem like a chore. Building a foundation of learning skills, even during a short tudoring session can really change a student's approach in all of their classes.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having obtained a Communications degree from college, I was quite driven to help students who faced challenges in the areas of reading/writing. Further, I had extensive experience in Title I and Reading Labs, even on the college campus where I studied. Later, I earned my Master's degree and did research to assist me in understanding the pervasive issue of a higher incidence of language difficulties faced by these students versus that realized in Math. During the past years, I have taught high school and college English courses to students who have been identified as needing assistance in Reading and writing. I have also assisted students with other subjects, such as Algebra I, II, Problems of Democracy, high school science, etc.
I enjoy teaching and working with a variety of students. I do hold firmly that all young people can learn, just via different modalities. I thrill when ... read more

I have always loved teaching. I enjoy seeing the sparkle that comes to a child's eye when he grasps a new concept. All children learn in various ways and I am willing to find your child's leaning style and work with him that way. I have always been patient, loving, and very interested in every child's learning potential. A positive attitude needs presented to every child. They are all very capable of learning, but in their own way.
I have a bachelor's degree with many hour of class beyond. Providing quality, broad-based academic direction and leadership remains one of the core values for success in educational institutions today. In my instructional career, I have demonstrated the ability to develop curricula for language arts courses and influence student improvement through quality technology, media, lectures, discussions, assignments, assessments, and one on one tutoring. ... read more

I have always been passionate about working with different students and finding their unique learning strategies.
