Having assisted with homeschooling my brother for the last five years, I have extensive experience in tutoring. I have provided tutoring services in a wide variety of high school level classes ranging from English to mathematics to science. Moreover, I have provided tutoring services to university students in college level algebra, writing, and speech courses. Everybody learns differently, and I vary my teaching style to meet the individual learning needs of the person whom I am tutoring. One major constant of my teaching style, though, is that I heavily emphasize repetition in one manner or another.

As a student myself I know exactly what I want and expect out of a teacher. Learning is exciting for me, and it is important to me that I convey the 'fun' aspects of learning to my students. I am believe in conforming the way I teach to match the student's learning abilities. It is my job to make sure the student walks away fully understanding the information as opposed to acting like they understand it. As a young student I was very motivated to attend medical school at a young age. I received a bachelor degree, BS, in biology with minors in both psychology and chemistry. After graduating with my undergraduate degree early, I unexpectedly found a passion for teaching. Currently, I am working towards my masters degree, MS, in biology. Along with this I have been teaching introductory science labs for the university. I also, enjoy tutoring, one-on-one, students ranging from 2nd gra

I always seek to individualize my instruction. No two learners are alike, and this often gets lost in a busy crowded classroom. I believe that the ability to tailor instruction to a student's individual needs is essential for academic success. I have experience working with learners of all ages. My earliest classroom experiences while studying at Kent State were with Kindergarten and 1st Grade classes, and I have substituted in classrooms all the way up through high school. I have worked with adults in a GED prep and ESL environment, and my certification/area of expertise is with adolescent and young adult learners.

I am a good listener and let the student tell me what problems they are having in any subject. I ask them questions to get them to think about what they're learning in depth. I let them explain things to me instead of just explain everything to them, this way I can find out what they already know and give them feedback so that they can improve on their weaknesses. I am patient with them and let them work at their own pace, never rushing them. I tailor my tutoring to each student's individual needs. I tutored at Case Western Reserve's Center for Civic Engagement and Learning. I tutored kids of in middle school at the local library in all subjects. I have a bachelor's degree in biology and am in the postbaccalaureate program in nutrition.

As a tutor, my number one goal is to assist students in understanding the root of the material before advancing into further knowledge or techniques. I am a patient, empathic, understanding tutor. I am willing to take the time required to help the student reach a point of complete understanding. As a creative and adaptable person, I look for opportunities to convey the information in varying ways to best help the student. I especially enjoy tutoring the lower-level math classes and assisting students in writing/ proofreading papers. As an undergraduate student, I received fifty-plus hours of training, and throughout my tutoring career have assisted elementary level students through postsecondary. As an undergraduate psychology major at the University of Akron, I took advantage of a number of opportunities to help others. I have worked as a tutor at the University level, helping col

As a graduate student, I worked as an Academic Adviser for student-athletes at The University of Akron. I have worked tutoring at-risk students in a cooperative environment. My duties included supervising and leading study sessions, helping students plan and organize time effectively, as well as implementing study and test taking strategies. I like working with young people to challenge them to accomplish something they did not think was possible. I prefer to ask them questions and see what they can come up with. From there, I use my experiences and expertise to guide them through the learning process. I believe that all people have profound capabilities and potential if they just have the proper guidance and motivation.

I obtained my BS in Business Management from Clemson University in August of 2009. During my time there I was a member of the Varsity Swimming team where I competed against world class athletes within the Atlantic Coast Conference. Balancing life as a student-athlete created a unique and challenging college experience for me. As well as athletic experience, I served as an Assistant to the Director of Community Relations at IPTAY Collegiate Club for 2 years. Within this position I was in charge of a variety of volunteer events for student-athletes, many of which involved tutoring and mentoring elementary aged children. I plan on beginning my pursuit of a MAT in Early Childhood Education this May at Kent State University. My teaching style is extremely hands-on. I have found through my coaching and swim lesson experience that I relate well to kids and by approaching the situation in a fun

When I came to college I knew I wanted to teach and I knew I wanted to teach older students of the middle school, high school level. I began on the Adolescent, Young Adult Education track and never steered away from it. I have been granted many experiences in a classroom before I graduate and I have come to realize that every student needs individual attention and it has been my goal to give each child the opportunity to succeed. I enjoy helping students discover their potential through interactive, hands on lessons, and also at times through some direct instruction. I try my best to make a difference in my students' lives and I find it extremely important to develop a professional rapport with students, parents and other faculty. I have spent the past four years studying the field of education with an added interest in social studies. In May 2010 I will have graduated from BGSU with a B

For three years while I was an undergraduate at The University of Akron, I worked as a peer tutor with the Department of Developmental Programs. During that time I took three tutor training courses and earned a Level II tutoring certificate from the College Reading and Learning Association. I tutored students in psychology, sociology, and basic statistics courses. As a peer tutor I had the opportunity to become a learning assistant. This position paired me with a professor and I served as a tutor for the assigned class, for the year I served as a learning assistant for Quantitative Methods in Psychology and Basic Statistics. I believe that everyone can learn and appreciate statistics. Being trained as a tutor, one of the first ways to help the student identify their learning style. After identifying their learning style, the next step is to find a way for them to connect the concep

I have earned a MS and BS in Psychology, and thus, have extensive experience and knowledge in the science and research fields. I have excellent knowledge of the basic sciences, math and statistics, psychology, writing,and critically analyzing written material. Additionally, in the past, I have worked as a Writing Consultant/Tutor at Wright State University's Writing Center and have worked as a personal tutor for two middle school level international students. For my Writing Center position, I tutored various students on improving writing skills, such as enhancing grammar, punctuation, organization and flow, and critical analysis skills. I have exceptional writing skills that have been refined through my education experiences. My teaching style emphasizes creating confident, independent students. I emphasize learning new skills in whatever manner suits the child/student and like to provid

I believe that each child learn differently, and as such, I have found the best way to teach is to cater to each child's individual learning style. In working one-on-one with students, I feel as though it is crucial to build a trusting relationship in which the child feels comfortable stating whether or not the teaching style I am using is working for them. Being only 22 years old, I feel as though I have an advantage, as I am close enough in age to the students that they are able to almost see me as a peer, but I'm also old enough for them to respect me as an adult. It was in my senior year at UConn that I learned about a program called City Year that enables young people as myself to work within the realm of urban education. As a City Year corps member, I was able to work both inside the classroom and after school with a group of 22 ninth grade boys at Glenville High School in Cleve

My teaching philosophy is that all students can learn, as long as they are motivated to learn, the educator is motivated to teach, and the academic instruction is modified and molded to the learning style(s) of the individual students. Naturally, all students learn material differently, so a variety of instructional strategies need to be involved in the learning process. I care about each of my students, and I strive to motivate them to succeed. I am currently a private tutor for middle school and high school students that need educational assistance in biology, algebra, and chemistry. Since each student has different needs, I assess the obstacles to academic success during my first meeting with him/her, and structure our future sessions accordingly. I did my student teaching at St. Helen's School in Newbury, Ohio. My teaching here has given me valuable experience with classroom man

" The mediocre teacher tells, the good one explains, the superior one shows, and the great one inspires..." I will inspire, explain, and show... in that order. Regardless of age (my youngest student was 4 and my oldest was 65) I believe that motivation is the cornerstone of all great learning. In fact, teaching without true motivation and belief is just glorified babysitting. Through inspiration and my extensive knowledge in various areas, your loved one will succeed. It is inevitable. I have over 9 years of combined teaching and instruction experience at the junior high, senior high, private, collegiate, and adult levels. Through scholarships, I have earned a B.A. in Psychology from Ohio Northern University and an M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction from Ashland University. I am currently working on my second M.Ed. degree and beginning my 3rd season as a Head Boys Track Coach. I
